Real problems people wish someone would solve. Pick a category, read the pain point, and vote โ your demand helps businesses know what to build.
I want smart heating but don't trust myself with the wiring
Hive, Nest, Tado โ forums are full of boiler horror stories. Plumber quoted ยฃ400 just to 'have a look'. Would you pay for a smart thermostat install bundle with guarantee?
Why is finding a locksmith at 10pm still a gamble?
Locked out with a toddler inside; first Google result charged ยฃ180 for a thirty-second job. Second guy never arrived. Would you vote for regulated emergency locksmiths?
My loft needs boarding before I can use it for storage
Quotes range wildly and nobody explains building regs clearly. I just want to stop paying for a storage unit. Would you pay for transparent loft boarding packages?
I need my garden cleared before the landlord inspection
Overgrown mess from a wet winter and the inspection is Friday. Green waste bags won't cut it. Would you use same-week garden clearance near you?
Can someone fix my squeaky floorboards without ripping up the carpet?
It's above the baby's room and every step wakes them. Carpenter wants to lift the whole carpet. Would you pay for minimally invasive floor repair?
Why does every painter quote a different prep standard?
One includes filling cracks, one doesn't, prices look similar until the job starts. Walls still show bumps after the 'cheap' one. Would you use painters with itemised prep quotes?
I need a burglar alarm but don't want a pushy sales visit
Door knockers promise 'free surveys' then sit in my kitchen for two hours. Just want a price for a basic system. Would you pay for no-pressure alarm quotes online?
My double glazing is misted โ is repair cheaper than replacement?
Companies push full units but forums say seals can be replaced. Hard to know who's honest. Would you vote for misted window repair specialists?
Why is getting a smart doorbell installed harder than buying it?
Ring arrived next day; electrician availability is next month. Wiring old doorbells is apparently 'non-standard'. Would you pay for same-week video doorbell fitting?
I need my chimney swept before we use the fire this winter
Sweeps book up in October and we're already cold in September. Last year we waited until December. Would you use chimney sweep reminders with autumn priority booking?
Can someone help me declutter before my parents visit?
Spare room is a dumping ground and I'm ashamed. Marie Kondo videos don't help when you're overwhelmed. Would you pay for a declutter helper for a day?
My roof is leaking but roofers won't come for a 'small job'
Bucket in the attic every rainstorm; everyone wants a full re-roof quote. I need a patch now. Would you vote for emergency roof leak repair?
Why does every electrician charge a call-out fee for changing a socket?
Two dead sockets in the kitchen and ยฃ80 before they even unscrew anything. Feels punitive for a small fix. Would you pay for a handyman tier for minor electrical jobs?
I want artificial grass but worry it'll look cheap
Samples look lush in the showroom and plastic in my small garden. Installers all say theirs is premium. Would you use vetted artificial lawn fitters with real garden photos?
My garage door motor died with the car trapped inside
Manual release is stuck and the company went bust. Emergency callouts want ยฃ300 minimum. Would you pay for same-day garage door repair?
Can I get my house surveyed before I waste money on the wrong renovation?
Kitchen dreams need knowing if walls are load-bearing first. Structural engineer quotes take weeks. Would you use a rapid pre-renovation survey service?
