For customers

How SkilledContractors works for customers, from posting to accepted offers.

How it works for customers

From your first request to the professional you continue with.

  • Post a job without an account

    Describe your job in a few short questions. You do not need an account.

    Post a job →
  • Check before you send

    You see your answers once more and change them if needed.

  • Compare offers

    When professionals reply, you compare their price, their approach and what is included.

  • You choose

    You choose who you continue with, or nobody. A request does not oblige you to anything.

  • Messages

    Talk to the professional through messages on the platform. Your contact details stay protected until sharing is allowed.

  • Your account

    In your account you see your jobs, the offers and your messages. Logging in and creating an account use the same e-mailed code.

Frequently asked questions

Answers to common questions.

How does SkilledContractors work?

You post a job, receive offers from providers, compare options, and accept the best fit. The dashboard helps you track progress in one place.

Is posting a job free?

Yes. Posting a job is free. You can create a request, collect offers, and decide without upfront listing fees.

How do I compare offers?

You can compare offers side by side in your dashboard based on scope, timing, and price. This makes it easier to choose the provider that matches your priorities.

When are my contact details shared?

Contact details are shared only after you accept an offer. Until then, communication and context stay protected inside the platform.

Why are my contact details protected?

Your details are protected to reduce spam, improve privacy, and keep communication structured. This also creates a safer process for both customers and providers.

Can I message via the platform?

Yes. After you accept an offer, you can continue communication through in-platform messaging. This keeps decisions and context visible in one thread.

What if I do not get a suitable offer?

If no suitable offer arrives, improve your description, add photos, and set a realistic budget and timing. You can also contact support for help improving your request.

What if I have a problem with a provider?

If you face a quality or conduct issue, contact support as soon as possible. Admin moderation is available where needed to review platform behavior.

Are providers KVK verified?

Providers with a verified badge have had their KVK details checked. The badge is a trust indicator, not a guarantee of project outcomes.

How do I contact support?

Use /support/contact to reach the support team. Include your reference ID when available so the team can resolve your case faster.
