Checked pros.
Private details.

Before a pro can take a single booking, a member of the AYS team reviews their application. Photo ID is required and checked. Pros who do not pass are not approved.

Pros can also upload public liability insurance, trade qualifications and DBS certificates. Our team reviews each one and records whether it was approved, and when it expires if it has an expiry date.

Some jobs are controlled by law. Gas work must be done by a Gas Safe registered engineer. Notifiable electrical work in England and Wales must be done by an electrician in a competent person scheme or signed off by building control. Ask your pro for their registration and check it on the official register.

Pros never see your name, address or phone number while you are browsing or collecting quotes. They see them only when your booking is confirmed. Quote requests show the job and the postcode area, nothing more.

You pay through AYS when you book, using a regulated payment provider. AYS never sees or stores your full card number. Pros are paid through the same provider, so there is no cash changing hands and no bank details to share with a stranger.

Accounts need a verified email. Passwords are checked against lists of known leaked passwords, and you are told by email when your password changes. Staff accounts that can approve pros must use two-step sign-in.

If a job goes wrong, tell us. We look at the booking history, talk to both sides and help reach a fair outcome. Pros who break our rules can be suspended, which signs them out and stops new bookings straight away.
