Skilled Trades jobs: common questions
Do I need a license for trades work?
For electrical, plumbing and HVAC work, yes, and the required license is stated on the posting. General labour, carpentry, painting and most installation work does not require a state license, though insurance is often expected.
Is work quoted hourly or by the job?
Both. Labour and crew work is normally hourly or by the day, while installation and specialist repair is usually quoted per job. The posting says which before you apply.
Do I pay for leads?
No. This is the main difference from lead-generation services, which charge you per enquiry and sell the same enquiry to several competitors. Here you see the job and respond at no cost.
Can I find work for a whole crew?
Yes. Contractors regularly post multi-person requirements, and you can apply as a crew rather than as an individual.
