How it works

Three steps from “this needs fixing” to work booked.

  1. 01

    Describe the job

    Write what you need, add photos, and pick the trades involved. It takes about two minutes.

  2. 02

    Receive bids

    Verified contractors in your area send prices and notes. New bids arrive as notifications.

  3. 03

    Message and hire

    Chat with the contractors you like, settle the details, and choose the bid that fits.

Everything the job needs

The details that turn a quote into a decision you can trust.

Post with photos

Describe the work, add photos, and tag the trades involved. Clear jobs get better, more accurate bids.

Compare real bids

Contractors bid on your job with a price and a note. See them side by side instead of chasing quotes by phone.

Built-in messaging

Ask questions, share details and agree on scope inside the app. Every conversation stays attached to the job.

Verified contractors

Contractors submit a tax ID and supporting documents. Our team reviews them before they can bid.

Secure payments

Card payments and subscriptions run through a certified payment provider. Buffalo Contractors never stores your card details.

Instant notifications

Get alerted the moment a new bid lands or a contractor replies, so nothing waits in an inbox.

Trades across the whole property

Tag as many categories as your job touches. A kitchen remodel can call for carpentry, plumbing and electrical at once — and the right contractors will see it.

Anyone can call themselves a contractor. On Buffalo Contractors, they have to prove it first — and payments run on infrastructure you already trust.

Every contractor submits a tax ID and supporting documents. Our team approves the account before bidding is unlocked.

Secure payment handling

Card details go straight to a certified payment provider and are never stored on our servers.

Questions, answered

How much does it cost to post a job?

Nothing. Homeowners post jobs, receive bids and message contractors for free. There is no fee to hire.

How are contractors verified?

Contractors register as an individual or a company and submit a tax ID along with supporting documentation. Our team reviews each submission before the account is approved to bid.

What does a contractor subscription include?

The contractor plan gives you bidding access to jobs across the marketplace. It is billed monthly and can be cancelled at any time.

How do I choose between bids?

Every bid shows the contractor's price and a short note. You can open their profile, review their details and message them directly before deciding.

Who handles payment for the work?

You agree on terms directly with the contractor you hire. Payments made through the platform are processed securely by a certified payment provider.

Which areas do you cover?

We are focused on Buffalo and the surrounding Western New York region, and we are expanding as more verified contractors join.
