Book home improvement jobs in an instant

A new app aims to help homeowners book home improvement jobs with just a few taps on their phones.

Plentific.com, a home services marketplace, has launched Plentific Instant, a booking system that allows customers to skip the drawn out process of looking for potential trades people, comparing quotes and haggling for the right price.

Bookings are made possible by Plentific’s network of Verified Pros, who are available for bookings related to more than 90 home improvement services – a number that is set to rise to 450.

These include hanging a picture, installing new flooring and rewiring a light fixture.

Larger jobs can still be booked on the Plentific website.

Plentific co-founder Emre Kazan said: “This is a huge step forward for both homeowners and trade professionals, whereby hiring someone for a repair, maintenance or home improvement project is as easy as ordering food for delivery.

Plentific Instant is currently available in the Greater London and will be rolled out nationwide later on in 2017. It will also be available via several Plentific partner websites, including Zoopla, PrimeLocation and HomeOwners Alliance, as well as a number of large consumer brands thanks to several partnerships which will be announced shortly.
