Why pay a landscaper to mow a lawn? The right person for the job

You don't always need a specialist

A bit of weeding doesn't need an expensive landscaper. A quick clean before guests arrive doesn't need a firm with vans, uniforms and overheads. A flat-pack wardrobe doesn't need a call-out fee. Most everyday jobs just need a capable local person who'll do a great job.

The right person for the job

That's the idea behind BOB-O-JOB. Tell us what you need and we'll match you with a trusted, interviewed local worker — everyday, capable people who get the job done. You see an upfront price before you book and only pay on completion.

Everyday people, properly checked

Every Jobber is ID-verified and interviewed in person before taking a single job. You see their name, photo and rating, follow them on live GPS, and only pay once you've confirmed the work is done.

The everyday jobs people book most

Sofa moves, garage clear-outs, garden tidies, errands, waiting in for deliveries, picture hanging, a lunchtime dog walk. No job too small or too odd.
