How FastHands works, in plain English — and real people when you need them.
FastHands has not launched yet. These articles describe how it works at launch, so you know what you are signing up for.
For homeowners
Posting a job, comparing bids, paying safely, and what to do if something goes wrong.
Describe the work in your own words, choose how many pros can bid, and post.
Bids come to you with price, scope, and timeline. You compare, you choose.
Your money is held until the work is done — and you get 72 hours to confirm or object.
CSLB license against the state registry, identity matched to the license holder — and what we do not check.
Flag it within 72 hours. That is what keeps your money in escrow.
Nothing. Here is how that works and where the money actually comes from.
For contractors
Joining, getting verified, bidding on locked leads, getting paid, and what we charge.
Apply, verify your CSLB license and identity, and start bidding.
You bid, you lock it. No bidding war, and nothing to pay to quote.
Escrow is funded before you start. Submit the work, and payment releases within 72 hours.
At most 15%, only on completed and paid work. Nothing else, ever.
Which jobs need a verified CSLB license, and why the gate exists.
