Tell us the job

The right help. Without calling around.

City Works finds and assigns a suitable, qualified and available independent provider. We let you know who is assigned. You can request a different provider.

01

Tell us the job

Share the work, location, timing, and what you think it may cost.

02

We find your provider

We check qualifications, service fit and availability before assigning a provider. If the provider cannot proceed, we continue the search. A match is not guaranteed.

Contractor Agreement

You agree the work, price, timing and terms directly with the provider before work starts. You pay the provider directly for their work.

Your cost range is only your best guess. It is not a quote or final price. The provider sets and collects the final job price.
