Price Your Job was founded in 2017 with a single aim of helping UK homeowners price jobs they needed doing around their houses. Our aim from the very beginning was to provide in depth guides that explain what a job entails as well as the costs involved, from labour to materials.
We gather data from thousands of quotes submitted by real people to calculate our job prices as well as by talking to trades, researching the web and other offline sources.
As we strive to have the most upto date information on the website, we welcome any feedback relating to any of our guides, you can contact us via the form to submit your thoughts.
Over the years we have received many comments about the prices not always being exact, we would like to make it clear that we can only estimate the cost of a job, there are many variables which affect the overall price and we suggest that you always consult with a trade professional and several sources before accepting a quote. You can read our full disclaimer here.
