Trader favouring system
If you are a homeowner, don’t trust trader blindly just because they come through CheckaTrade. CheckaTrade guarantee has no meaning and doesn’t mean you are protected. Hence using CheckaTrade or any other website doesn’t make any difference. Trader took £1200 for a £300 worth of work done poorly and received 0 protection from CheckaTrade. I had to provide same evidence multiple times and then was relayed what trader said.

Untrustworthy men
We thought checkatrade would be safe, although that extremely backfired. They hire anyone, even people who aren’t even professionally qualified to do their jobs. Revamp roofing was the company we chose to do a small task. Required two days, although took them 5 days and a big patch in our roof. We had a disagreement, they insisted on doing more work that needed, the aim to gather more money, which we politely declined. The main guy, Joseph immediately grew restless and agitated as things didn’t go his way, don’t get me started on his different attitude towards women and men. After a dispute, he insisted we pay the full money, reminder the job was only half done. He was going to bail. We weren’t allowing that. Next day, 3 random Indian men came, I have nothing against them, but it was odd where was his normal crew? Joseph insisted they worked, which gave the home owner no choice really as he made severe threatening comments. Later on, the work was disgusting, as we refused to give them what they wanted. They began to criminal damage our house, threatening to attack us. Why are you hiring these companies checkatrader?

Perfect job
Excellent service from start to finish. The Checkatrade team was professional, fair, and very helpful throughout my complaint. Thanks to their support, I was able to get my money back from a dishonest trader. I really appreciate their help and will continue using Checkatrade with complete confidence. Highly recommended!

Pointless
You submit the job and nothing happens, no one responds to you and if they do, they act like you are a problem for them and you should feel lucky if anyone responds. Good idea but as usual people ruined it. Looks like trade people are very rich and don’t need work anymore…
