If you do the work

Planned work. Booked weeks ahead.
No more last-minute panic.

Tickover homeowners run a maintenance calendar — boiler services, annual checks, gutter clears, all scheduled in advance. Those jobs come to you with the make, model, photos and preferred dates already filled in. You plan your week like a professional, not a first-responder.

What you get

Everything you actually want.

  • Free to join. We only earn when you do.

    Free for your first 3 months. After that, £49/month — and if there are no jobs to quote on in a calendar month, that month is free. No lead fees to buy, no per-job cut, no lock-in.

  • Scheduled maintenance, not emergency callouts

    Most Tickover jobs are planned weeks or months ahead — a boiler service in November, gutters in October, an annual check before winter. You can see them coming, price properly, and fill your diary without scrambling. The job lands with photos, make, model and preferred dates already filled in.

  • A verified history that travels with you

    Every completed job builds your record on Tickover — work, photos, mutual reviews. It travels with you off-platform.

How it actually goes

Three steps, no surprises.

  1. 01

    Apply once, get vetted properly

    Trades, postcodes, Gas Safe / NICEIC numbers, public-liability cert, ID. We ring two recent customers. You're in straight away; credentials verified within 24 hours — usually much faster.

  2. 02

    Set the patch you want, for free

    Pick the trade categories and travel radius you cover. Scheduled maintenance jobs that match start landing in your feed — with photos, item details and preferred dates already filled in — weeks before the work is due.

  3. 03

    Quote, fit, get paid

    Send a quote in 30 seconds. Mark started when you arrive, complete when you leave.

What people say

Quiet endorsements from people who’ve used it.

For the first time I can see what's coming in three weeks. I price properly, I order parts ahead, and I'm not turning up blind. It's a completely different kind of work.

Gas-safe engineer, Wimbledon

Emergency callouts are stressful and badly paid. Tickover sends me boiler services and annual checks I can put in the diary on Monday morning.

Plan your week, not your emergency.

Tickover Trade is invite-only at the founding cohort stage. Scheduled maintenance jobs, booked in advance, waiting in your feed. Apply once, get in straight away — jobs start landing once credentials are checked, usually within a few hours.
