London Heroes — home

For London’s trades

You’re good at the work. We’re good at everything around it.

London Heroes is built by people who think skilled trades deserve better than lead-selling sites. Verified professionals, structured jobs, honest terms — and a platform that only earns when you do.

  • Briefs, not leads

    Every request arrives as a structured brief — problem, photos, postcode, urgency — so you quote once, accurately, instead of phoning around half-described jobs.

  • Payment you don't chase

    Customers pay through the platform. When the job's confirmed done, you're paid — with every transaction on the record. No invoice-chasing months.

  • A passport that sells for you

    Your verified credentials — Gas Safe, Part P, insurance — on a live public passport customers actually trust. Your qualifications become your marketing.

  • We win when you win

    No charge to join, no charge for leads, no selling your details to five competitors. We take a share of completed jobs only — if you don't earn, we don't.

Honest framing on earnings: we won’t promise income figures — earnings depend on your trade, coverage, availability and demand, which vary borough by borough. Founding Heroes shape the platform and get priority as demand grows.

One fee. Your price. Real arithmetic.

Move the slider — this is the entire commercial arrangement, and it's the same one written into your Hero Agreement.

You set it when you quote — it’s your price, not ours.

That’s the whole model: no joining fee, no lead fees, no subscription, no charge for your Passport page. If you don’t earn, we don’t. How many jobs you win depends on your trade, your area and your reviews — we won’t pretend otherwise.

Your shop window

Your Hero Passport — a public page that proves you’re the real thing

Identity verified. Gas Safe, Part P, insurance — each credential shown with its status, watched daily for expiry. Reviews only from real, paid jobs. It’s the page you send when someone asks “are you legit?” — and we build it for you from your verified record.

What we'll check — and keep checking

Verification is what makes your passport worth something. Here's exactly what it involves for the trades you select.

  • Identity & insurance — everyone

    Photo ID check and current public liability insurance, expiry-tracked. When your insurance renews, we re-verify. Lapsed cover means paused work, automatically — that's what keeps the platform's promise honest.

  • Gas work — Gas Safe registration

    Business and engineer registration checked against the Gas Safe Register, including the appliance types on the back of your card. No registration, no gas jobs — no exceptions, ever.

  • Electrical work — qualification evidence

    Competent person scheme membership (NICEIC, NAPIT or equivalent) or equivalent qualification evidence, with scope of permitted work recorded.

  • Specialist categories

    F-Gas for air conditioning refrigerant work, and category-specific requirements where regulation demands them. We'll tell you exactly what's needed for the trades you select.

Free forever to be listed. Pro when it earns its keep.

The core deal never costs you: verified profile, public passport, structured briefs, secure payment. In time, an optional Hero Pro tier will add priority matching, instant payouts, a quoting and invoicing toolkit, and our credential renewal concierge — priced monthly, cancel anytime, and only worth it if it pays for itself. Founding Heroes get first access and shape what goes in it.
