What do I get?

Level One membership includes a full listing that the public can find through our web site and Trade Appraisal Line. Members receive unlimited Reputation Report cards to give to customers, and a generous marketing pack of stickers and certificates, and automated monitoring reports by email. The online Members Area allows them to personalise their web page and print off Reports to impress prospective customers.

Level Two membership, in addition to the above, includes wider exposure through an entry in our printed directories - in total 5.4 million are distributed each year.

Members will not be given full ‘recommended, vetted and monitored’ (RVM) status with Checkatrade until we have received at least five feedback cards from their customers. It is made clear to the consumer that members lacking this status have just joined.

Level 2 members get entry into our locally distributed, full-colour directories. Each directory is delivered by Royal Mail to communities of 50,000 homes twice a year.

These directories are published when we have enough trades and services in a particular area to warrant publication. Those interested in being in our directory can take level 1 membership initially. When enough interest has been registered in that area for a directory to be printed they will be contacted.

If you are interested in advertising in a new area or would like to check current availability please call us on 0800 458 1234.
