HOW IT WORKS
Customers come to Thumbtack to find local professionals.
They need to hire someone for a project – like a kitchen renovation, a wedding or pretty much anything. We ask them specific questions, and they ask us to find local professionals to help.
We send you those warm leads.
When you sign up with Thumbtack, you tell us what you’re looking for – how far you want to travel, what projects you can work on, and when you’re available. Then we match you with customers that fit. We’ll send you the customer’s project description – we call it a request.
Pros send quotes.
You decide if the customer request is a good fit, then send a quote, which includes your price estimate and profile. You’ll see how much it costs to quote on any job before you click “send.”
Customers review pros’ quotes.
They’ll look through everyone’s prices, profiles and reviews and either hire someone right then or send a message for more info. You can email or text back to finalize the details of a job. And once you’re hired, we’ll ask the customer to review you.
