Is It Time To Thumbtack Your Way To No Haggling?

Our family likely runs across the same dilemma that you do.  We live in a nice house and when some things don’t work in the house, we end up having to call someone to help fix the problem.   This can range from fixing the dryer to replacing lightbulbs that we simply cannot reach in the house.   When people come to the house to give us a quote, we are always worried that the price will get sized up relative to the neighborhood.   Also, taking the time to have two, three, or four people to give you quotes can be an exhausting process.  Recently, I stumbled across the new website Thumbtack which may alleviate some of those problems of having to worry about haggling around price.

Thumbtack (www.thumbtack.com) has a very simple system where they go get the quotes for you.   The first step of the process is to get introduced to the pros.  You tell Thumbtack the project or service you need at this time.  They ask you a few detailed questions and they share those details with experienced professionals.  At no time is your phone number or e-mail handed out in the first step so you aren’t getting three people banging down your door.

Within a few hours, at least four experienced professionals will pay Thumbtack for the privilege of sending you a custom detailed quote.  Each quote will have an estimate, customer reviews, business profile, contact information and a personalized message.  This gives you the opportunity to compare professionals right in the comfort of your own home without someone trying to close you at the kitchen table.

After you have reviewed all the information you can ask any of the professionals additional questions about the project, and then come to your own conclusion on who you want to use.  Whether you need to hire a DJ for a party or you need a few rooms painted in your house, perhaps the easiest way to get the job done is to just stick a Thumbtack in the wall to get the right person.
