No searching, no calling around, no guesswork. Here's how Goodnest connects you with the right worker for the job.
Tell us what you need done, where, and when. Include photos if it helps — workers can see exactly what they're quoting on.
It takes about two minutes, and it's completely free to post. Your job goes out to qualified workers in your area straight away.
Shalini found it "very efficient and simple" — that's the idea.
Workers who can do the job send you quotes. You can chat with them directly — ask about their experience, timeline, approach.
Read their reviews from other customers. Compare pricing. Take your time choosing — there's no pressure to commit until you're ready.
As one customer said: "Customer service was amazing, kept in contact and always transparent the whole way through."
Pick the worker you trust. They come out, do the work, and you pay through Goodnest once the job is done to your satisfaction.
Your money is protected until the work is complete. If anything's not right, Goodnest's support team steps in to sort it out.
Every review on Goodnest is from a verified customer. No fake five-stars, no anonymous testimonials. You see exactly who said what.
No middleman. Chat directly with the worker doing your job. Ask about experience, discuss specifics, get a feel for who they are.
Compare multiple quotes. Choose based on price, reviews, or gut feel. You're in control of the budget and the timeline.
Pay through Goodnest after the job is done. Your money stays secure until you confirm you're happy with the result.
Yes, completely free. You post a job, workers quote on it, and you only pay when you've hired someone and the work is done.
Most jobs get their first quote within a few hours. Popular services like cleaning and handyman work often get multiple quotes the same day.
Workers build their reputation through customer reviews. You can see their full review history, ratings, and completed job count before hiring. For licensed trades (electrical, plumbing), workers must hold the appropriate NZ trade qualifications.
Goodnest holds your payment until you confirm the job is done. If something's not right, reach out to our support team — we'll work with you and the worker to resolve it.
Just about anything: cleaning, plumbing, electrical, gardening, building, repairs, dog walking, removals, IT help, painting, and dozens more. If you're not sure, post it anyway — if there's a worker in Auckland who does it, they'll find your job.
No obligation at all. You can review quotes, chat with workers, and decide in your own time. If none of the quotes work for you, that's fine.
