For more than 25 years we have stood for reputation and raising standards. Today, we are a modern, two-sided marketplace and force for good, working ambitiously towards our mission of being the trusted foundation of every home by connecting people with the trades they need to do jobs in their homes, and trades to the tools they need to run their business online.

With the backing of private equity firm Brookfield, we have a big growth plan and a robust roadmap to get us there.

A platform built on pride. A team driven by it.

At Checkatrade, we believe every home deserves a job done right. And that starts with building a platform people can trust — and a team proud to power it.

Built to be trusted

For over 25 years, we've been helping homeowners hire with confidence. Today, we're the UK's leading platform for home repairs and improvements — bringing together checked tradespeople, expert guidance, and the tools to get every job done right.

Made to make a difference

Our mission is simple: to make home improvement easier, fairer and more reliable for everyone. We help homeowners get jobs sorted, and we give tradespeople the tools to build their business. That means better outcomes for both sides — and real value at scale.
