Find more building and construction work across the UK
Extensions, renovations and structural repairs bring larger projects to builders across the UK. Arkadia Connect sends you alerts for building work in your area, so you can spot the bigger projects early.
Jobs customers post for building and construction work
Building jobs are often planned well ahead, so customers look for a builder early. Typical examples include:
- A single or double storey rear extension, from groundworks to finish
- Internal walls removed or added, with a steel beam fitted
- A garage conversion or garden room built as living space
- Underpinning, damp-proofing or repairs to a cracked wall
- A new porch, driveway or boundary wall
- A property brought back into use after a period of being empty
What customers ask builders
Building customers tend to ask about planning, sign-off and how the project will be run. Common questions include:
- Whether the work needs building regulations approval, and who arranges it
- Whether you will provide a written, itemised quote and a programme of work
- Whether you will deal with party wall agreements with neighbours where needed
- How payments are staged across the project
- Whether you carry public liability insurance and can show the certificate
How job alerts work for you
Larger building jobs often need a builder who covers a wide area, so think about the radius your plan gives you. Pro covers about 30 miles from your base postcode, and Unlimited gives nationwide access.
Arkadia Connect is new, and open to traders across the UK. The jobs you see depend on what customers post in your trades and area.
Plans and prices
Pick the plan that fits the area you work in. Pay monthly, or pay yearly to save. There are no charges per lead.
| Plan | Monthly | Yearly | What you get |
|---|---|---|---|
| Profile | £9.99 | £99.90 | Profile only, no job alerts |
| Starter | £19.99 | £199.90 | Job alerts for up to 2 trade categories within about 10 miles |
| Pro | £39.99 | £399.90 | Job alerts within about 30 miles |
| Unlimited | £59.99 | £599.90 | Nationwide job access and unlimited trade categories |
Only up to 3 traders can take up each job, so you are not competing with a crowd. Starter covers 2 trade categories, so choose the two that match the work you want to be alerted about.
No jobs, no charge
If no job matching your trades and area is posted during a full calendar month of your paid plan, your next month is free.
Applies to monthly Starter, Pro and Unlimited plans (not the Profile plan). A matching job is one posted on Arkadia Connect in one of your trade categories and within your plan's area. Your account must be approved and active for the whole calendar month. The free month is applied to your next monthly payment. For yearly plans, we add one free month to the end of your plan instead. It can't be exchanged for cash. Read the full terms
You can pause a monthly plan for 1 or 2 months, up to 2 months a year, from your dashboard. You will not be charged while paused.
Free profile setup: tick the box when you sign up and we'll call you to set it up.
