From sign up to a confirmed booking
Three steps, no friction.
Create your profile
Sign up as a carpenter or a hiring company. Our team vets every profile before it goes live, so everyone on the platform is the real deal.
Connect
Companies search and book carpenters directly, or post a job and review applicants. Carpenters set their availability and accept the work that suits them.
Get to work
The carpenter confirms, the company pays one card payment covering the rate plus the 10% platform fee, and the job is locked in. The carpenter is then paid in full.
See exactly what you would pay
Move the sliders to match your job. You pay Impact the booking fee only; the carpenter’s labour is paid to them directly.
