How EveryVillage works

  1. Find someone local

    Search for the job you need doing, or browse by village or trade. If nobody fits, tell us what you need and we will point you to someone.

  2. See who serves your village

    Every listing says where it is and which villages it serves, so everything you see is from around here.

  3. Choose with confidence

    Anyone who signs up with us speaks to us first, and we look up what they claim. Residents then add their own recommendations. How we check

Looking for someone to…

The last time I looked for a painter in Silchester, Nextdoor recommended me one in Watford.

Hardly a day passes without somebody in a village group asking for a gardener, a plumber, a piano teacher. People answer, generously, and then the thread slides out of sight and the next person asks the same question a fortnight later. The quality is already here. It is the finding that is broken.

EveryVillage is an attempt to gather what these villages already know about who does what, and hand it back.
