Home services. Fair prices. No funny business.
We’re building a friendlier way to connect homeowners with local tradespeople. With Rusty helping to clarify the work, compare offers, and keep everyone on the same page.
What seems to be the issue with the boiler?

Spot on! I've logged the Combi type and pressure drop so local plumbers can quote without guesswork.
How GetRusty works in 4 easy steps
No endless phone tag, no vague ballparks scribbled on scrap paper. A tidy, transparent sequence designed for both sides.
Tell Rusty what you need
Our guided intake organises job details, prompts for boiler models or wall dimensions, and flags missing information before it goes out.
Understand the job
Review indicative regional ranges and clear scopes so you know what genuine materials, parts, and labour should cost in Leicester & Coventry.
Compare local offers
Vetted local tradespeople review your complete scope and send comparable bids. Compare profiles, verified badges, and itemised costs side-by-side.
Get moving with trust
Organised milestone check-ins keep both parties aligned. Release payment only once agreed completion milestones are confirmed on site.
Two Sides, One Fair Standard
Marketplaces fail when they favour one side over the other. GetRusty treats British homeowners and skilled trades with equal integrity.
Finding the right tradesperson shouldn't be a guessing game.
Skip the blind directory listings and barrage of unsolicited sales calls. Post your job, receive itemised quotes from verified local contractors, and choose with total clarity.
- check_circleClearer job scopes: Rusty ensures trades have the measurements & details to quote accurately.
- check_circleApples-to-apples comparison: Side-by-side breakdowns without hidden call-out fees.
- check_circleZero upfront posting fees: Waitlist registration is free. Marketplace pricing will be confirmed before launch.
Your hard-earned skills deserve better than another paid lead.
Stop throwing hard-earned money at speculative lead generation platforms where five firms pay £30 just to chase the same unverified voicemail.
- check_circleZero pay-per-lead charges: Never pay a single penny just to view or submit an estimate.
- check_circlePre-scoped genuine jobs: Rusty gathers photos, specs, and timelines beforehand.
- check_circleCommission only on won work: We succeed only when your tools are on site and you get paid.
Built from experience. Made for both sides.
Good tradespeople deserve a fair opportunity to find work. Homeowners deserve clearer scopes, quotes and expectations. GetRusty is being built to help both sides understand the job before anyone commits. We’re starting with a planned closed beta in Leicester and Coventry.

We’re designing appropriate checks for regulated trades before the marketplace opens to beta users.
Insurance requirements and the way they are checked will be set out clearly before beta invitations are issued.
Building more than homes.
The UK faces a critical skilled trade shortage. Our future pledge: earmarking platform transaction margins to subsidise tool kits, apprentice placements, and certified NVQ training across Leicester, Coventry, and the wider Midlands.
* Note: The GetRusty Foundation is a future planned community initiative and not currently a registered charity.
