Thumbtack is an online marketplace that connects homeowners with local service professionals for home maintenance, repairs, remodeling, and other home projects. The platform lets customers describe projects in their own words, browse local pros across many trades (e. g. , cleaners, handymen, plumbers, electricians, painters, HVAC, contractors, landscapers), view reviews and cost estimates, message pros without sharing contact details until messaging, and offers a guarantee up to $2,500 if a job isn't done as agreed. Thumbtack provides consumer-facing apps and a separate pro-focused experience with resources, community, and tools for professionals to manage leads and reviews. It covers every county in the U. S. and emphasizes project guides, cost guides, and home maintenance plans.
