Local decisions, made clearer

Find the right local business, without the noise.

Compare nearby businesses, see what has been checked, read verified customer reviews and contact the businesses that suit your job.

Ordinary recommendations are based on relevance and trust signals, never on how much a business pays.

What can a local business help with?

Search around the location of the job. You can change the distance on the results page.

Your search location can be different from your saved home location.

  • Start with up to five suitable matches
  • See each check explained clearly
  • Choose up to three businesses to contact

Designed around your decision

A useful shortlist, with the detail to choose well.

Proactive Billboards reduces the work of comparing local businesses without hiding the rest of the market or turning trust into something a business can buy.

Relevant nearby choices

Start with a manageable recommended group, then continue to every matching business and adjust your filters.

Checks you can understand

Profiles say what was checked, when time-sensitive documents expire and when something has not yet been verified.

Contact stays in your control

Describe the job once and decide which suitable businesses receive it, rather than broadcasting it to everyone.

Frequently needed locally

Start with a common service.

Search by the kind of work you need. More detailed services and filters are available once you open the results.

How it works

From search to a focused enquiry.

You stay in control of the location, the shortlist and the businesses that can respond.

  1. Tell us what and where

    Search around the job location, choose a radius and add filters that matter for the work.

  2. Compare clear profiles

    See relevance reasons, platform reviews, availability and the exact verification information held.

  3. Choose who receives the job

    Send a structured enquiry to a small group you select and keep the conversation connected to it.

Trust without vague badges

See what “checked” actually means.

A business profile can be fully verified, partly verified or not yet verified. Each check is shown separately so you can decide what matters for your job.

Understand verification
  • Identity or business details confirmed
  • Insurance status with a visible valid-until date
  • Qualifications and trade memberships checked separately
  • Platform reviews linked to an enquiry or supporting evidence
  • Clear “not yet verified” information where checks are incomplete

Important: verification records a check completed by the platform. It does not guarantee workmanship or replace your own judgement.

Starting in Fife

Search around the place where the work is needed.

You can use a town or postcode and change the search distance. A precise private address is not required to begin comparing businesses.

Take part locally

Useful to the public, practical for local businesses.

The platform is designed around better public decisions while giving suitable businesses a fair route to relevant local enquiries.

Present services, coverage, availability and verification information clearly, then respond to enquiries that match the work you want.
