Bids depend on who is available near your ZIP. Outside Seattle? Plumber near me (all cities).
How booking and payment work
Three steps from a midnight burst pipe or a Saturday water-heater swap to “fixed and paid.” In top metros, the median first bid lands in about 10 minutes.
Post your job
Describe the job, add photos and enter your ZIP. Posting and comparing bids is free. Snap the dripping trap, the dead water heater or the shut-off valve, and say how soon you need it.
Choose your pro and pay into escrow
Compare bids and ask questions in the app. When you book, your payment is held in escrow before work starts. The plumber receives it after you approve the finished work.
Review the work and approve payment release
Review the finished work and the pro’s completion photos, then approve the invoice to release payment to the pro. Nothing is released until you say so.
Fees. Posting and comparing bids is free — a small service fee applies when you book, covering escrow payment protection. You see the total before you confirm.
If the job grows. Your bid covers the job you described. Agree on added work and its price in chat. You approve the final invoice before payment is released.
What ID-verified means. Every pro uploads a government ID and personal details to Stripe Identity, verified before a pro can be paid. AllBetter verifies identity, not trade licenses or insurance — ask about those in chat.
