Which quote would you choose?

Always get 3 quotes. Right??? We sourced quotes to redecorate the exterior of a London property and received prices of:

🏠 £1,932
🏠 £3,500
🏠 £11,000

That's a staggering £9,068 difference for what was broadly the same job. Yet less than 50% of homeowners get more than 2 quotes.

The interesting part? Many people would instinctively choose the £3,500 quote. It's not the cheapest, not the most expensive, and we often associate a higher price with better quality.

But would that actually be the best decision?
🤔 Be honest, which quote would you choose and why?

At what point is DIY actually worth it?

We built our garden steps ourselves this summer instead of paying a £2,532 quote. Saved a chunk of money, but it took 6 days instead of the 5 we planned — hidden cavities, a dog with excellent aim at wet bricks, and more trips to Selco than we'd like to admit.

So we ran the numbers properly: at what day rate does DIY actually stop being worth it?

Turns out the breakeven is around £286/day — which is a salary of roughly £71,500 a year. Below that, doing it yourself beats paying someone. Above it, your time's worth more than the saving.

That puts it at about the top 10% of UK earners. So for the vast majority of homeowners, DIY is the financially smart call — if you've actually got the skills to pull it off.

🏡 Thinking of getting your garden steps replaced? Read this before you hire anyone.

I recently carried out research into UK home renovation pricing — and the results for garden step replacement were eye-opening. 👇

When I collected 5 quotes for a garden step replacement, the prices ranged from £2,110 to £4,730 — that’s a difference of £2,620 for the exact same job! The overall pricing variance was 39%, making garden renovations the trade with the HIGHEST pricing volatility.

The fix? Last year I'd recommend getting 5 quotes instead of 3 so you can group and benchmark them, to reduce price variance to 6%, but who has time for that!

Instead from July 1st I'd recommend using www.Bid4MyJob.co.uk where only prequalified providers can bid to carry out your project ensuring you get the best value.

🎨 Are you OVERPAYING to paint your home? What the data says…

We analysed 5 real quotes for painting a ground floor (89m²) and the results were staggering. The highest was £3,240 — the lowest? Just £1,600. A difference of £1,640 for the EXACT same job. 😮

Here's the kicker — if you'd only collected the 3 quotes (like most of us do), the range of prices could vary by as much as 38%. That almost impossible to know if you're actually getting a fair deal!

💡 How do you make sure you're paying the right price?

This is exactly why we built www.Bid4MyJob.co.uk 👇

✅ Define your job once and verified, vetted contractors come TO YOU
✅ Contractors bid competitively, which drives prices down in your favour
✅ Because they're all bidding for YOUR job, you naturally get closer to that market rate — without having to chase 5 quotes yourself

Based on our painting data, using Bid4MyJob could save homeowners anywhere from £400 to over £1,600 on a single painting job alone. With those savings you could renovate the whole house.

The research shows the real market rate for a ground floor paint job sits around £1,787 — but without competitive bidding, many homeowners end up much closer to £3,240 simply because they didn't have enough quotes to spot the difference.

With Bid4MyJob.co.uk, the competition does the work for you. 🙌

🚨 Tired of being stung when renovating your home? You're not alone. How many of us have been here:

❌ You get a vague verbal quote… then the final bill is double.
❌ Extra costs appear on your invoice that nobody mentioned.
❌ You pay cash - no receipt, no warranty, no recourse if issues.

The sourcing process in the home renovation market has been broken for too long. Homeowners deserve better than crossed fingers and nasty surprises.

✅ That's exactly why we built Bid4MyJob.

Here's how it works: YOU post a clear statement of work, and verified contractors compete for your job by bidding their price DOWN. The competition between tradespeople drives the price to a fair market rate — and because they're bidding to win your business, every quote is accountable and in writing.
