Three simple steps
Finding Plumbing Help Doesn't Have to Be Complicated.

Choose Your Plumber

Information before your decision
Know More Before You Invite Someone Into Your Home.
You're not choosing from a phone number alone. Here's what TradeConnect helps you check.
Verification Status
See the plumber's displayed approval, identity and safety-screening information. Licence-document verification is shown separately under credentials. The private documents themselves are not shown.
Customer Ratings
See an overall rating from previous eligible completed jobs when the plumber has at least three ratings. Newer plumbers may not have a visible rating yet.
Proposed Charges
Review an hourly rate, preliminary estimate or inspection-first approach, plus any call-out fee, before deciding whether to select the plumber.
Good working relationships work both ways. After eligible completed jobs, homeowners and plumbers can each leave a private review; eligible ratings contribute to the displayed rating summary.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it cost anything to submit a request?
No. Submitting a plumbing request is free. Any assessment or repair charges are agreed directly with the plumber.
Do I have to hire someone after submitting?
No. You can review the responses you receive and decide whether to select a plumber.
Can I check a plumber's ratings before choosing?
Yes, when the plumber has at least three eligible ratings from completed jobs. Some plumbers may not have a displayed rating during the pilot.
What does “Verified” mean?
TradeConnect displays an approved status when the plumber's account is approved and identity and police-certificate checks are complete. Licence-document verification is tracked and displayed separately as a credential. These checks do not guarantee workmanship or conduct, and private documents aren't displayed to homeowners.
Will I know what the repair costs?
You can review the plumber's proposed pricing method, any preliminary estimate and call-out fee. Some problems require an inspection before a firm repair price can be agreed. Confirm costs directly with the plumber.
Will someone definitely respond or arrive?
Plumbers choose whether to respond, and a visit is arranged only if you select someone. TradeConnect does not guarantee responses, arrival times or emergency attendance.
What should I do in a serious leak?
If safe, shut off the relevant water supply or main valve. Keep away from water near electrical outlets or appliances. If the leak is on the public supply side of your meter or in the road, contact the Barbados Water Authority. For immediate danger, contact the appropriate emergency service.
Plumbing Problems Are Stressful Enough. Choosing a Plumber Shouldn't Add to Them.
