The barter network built for tradespeople. Match by trade and distance. Get graded by your peers — not homeowners. Trade skills, post items, build a reputation that follows you.
How it works
List what you offer and what you need. Set your travel radius, credential tier, and license info.
Matches rank by Trade Trust score, distance, and verified reputation — not who paid the most. High-risk categories trigger a licensing compliance check.
Complete the trade. Your peers grade your craftsmanship by phase — Rough, Second Rough, or Trim Out. Badges like "Code Eagle" and "Clean Welds" build your permanent record.
List physical items — tools, equipment, materials — and trade them for skilled work. The Items tab gives the platform a second marketplace entirely.
Guild Hall
Stars are for Uber drivers. TradeOff uses a weighted badge system graded by your peers — the people who actually know what good work looks like.
A Master Electrician grading another electrician carries 10× the weight of a cross-trade review. A licensed contractor carries a minimum 8× floor. A homeowner can only grade professionalism — punctuality, cleanliness, communication.
Positive: 🔥 Clean Welds · 📐 Level Head · ✨ Finish Freak · 📋 Code Eagle · 📖 By The Book · 🧹 Clean Site · 🔩 Tight Joints
Negative: 🤠 Code Cowboy · 💩 Sloppy Finish · 🗑 Left a Mess · 📉 Not Plumb
Peer reviewers select the work phase — Rough / A Phase, Second Rough / B Phase, or Trim Out — and complete a 10–12 item code-referenced checklist specific to the trade and phase. Electrical, plumbing, HVAC, framing, concrete, drywall, windows, automotive, and low-voltage all have their own code-compliant questions.
"His trim work is laser-straight." "Panel labeling was perfect." "Left clean welds on every joint." Peer reviewers add technical notes alongside badge selections — building a searchable, verifiable record of your actual craftsmanship.
Items Marketplace
Got a used generator sitting in your shop? A tile saw you don't need? List it on the Items tab and trade it for labor.
List anything trade-related — tools, equipment, auto parts, building materials, electronics. Describe what you want in return: labor, specific trade work, or other items.
Tap any item listing to open a direct message with the owner. Negotiate the trade, agree on the scope of work, and close it on the platform.
Traveling to a new city for work? Post your availability — where you're headed, what your window is — and let local tradespeople come to you. The Workers tab shows who's looking in your area.
A score from 0–100 built from completed trades, verified work, peer badges, and reliability. Complaints drop it. Remediations recover it. Licensed contractors start with a higher floor. It follows you across the platform.
