Get found by local customers searching for painting work online. No contract, no technical skills needed — your profile goes live in minutes.

What the work involves

Painters apply paint, stain, varnish, and specialist coatings to interior and exterior surfaces — from walls and ceilings to woodwork, facades, and metalwork. Common jobs include full room redecoration, exterior house painting, feature walls, fence and gate painting, and commercial property refresh.

Qualifications and accreditations

Painting and Decorating Association (PDA) membership is the main mark of professional accreditation — PDA members are vetted and required to carry public liability insurance.

Frequently asked questions

How much does TradrLink cost?

You can build and preview your full profile for free - no payment required to get started. Publishing your listing to go live and unlocking all the tools (your public business page, customer reviews, quote management, and invoicing) requires a paid subscription. Plans start from £9.99/month with no long-term contract.

Is there a contract or minimum term?

No. TradrLink has no long-term contracts and no minimum commitment. You can cancel, pause, or delete your profile at any time - no notice period, no questions asked.

How quickly will I start getting enquiries?

A complete profile - with photos, a clear description, your service areas, and at least a few customer reviews - typically starts appearing in local search results within days of setup. The more reviews you collect, the higher you'll rank.

What's included in a published TradrLink profile?

A published TradrLink profile gives you everything you need for a professional online presence. That includes: a public business page with your photos, services, and contact details; a shareable review link so customers can leave feedback in seconds; and the built-in quote and invoice tool. Publish whenever you're ready — no contract required.

How do I collect reviews from customers?

Every TradrLink profile has a unique review link. After finishing a job, send it to your customer by text or WhatsApp and they can leave a review in under a minute. Asking consistently after every job is the fastest way to build your reputation.

Can I list more than one trade or cover multiple areas?

Yes. You can add multiple trade categories and service areas to your profile so you appear in searches across all the types of work you do and the locations you cover.

How is TradrLink different from Checkatrade or MyBuilder?

Unlike Checkatrade's £100-500+/month subscription or MyBuilder's per-lead credit system, TradrLink lets you preview your full profile before committing. Once published, you pay a simple monthly fee with no long-term contract. Customers contact you directly through your permanent professional profile - no competing against other tradespeople for the same lead.

Common questions from customers

Do painters need to be a member of a trade body?

Painters are not legally required to hold any specific licence, but membership of the Painting and Decorating Association (PDA) is the recognised mark of professional accreditation. PDA members are vetted and must carry public liability insurance — look for their logo on a painter's profile.

How long does a typical interior painting job take?

A single room typically takes one to two days for preparation and two coats of paint. A full house interior redecoration usually takes between one and two weeks depending on property size, the number of rooms, and the complexity of the finish required.

What's included in a professional quote for painting work?

A professional painter's quote should itemise labour, paint and primer costs, surface preparation (filling, sanding, masking), the number of coats, and whether any woodwork or ceilings are included. Always get the quote in writing before work begins.
