I’m fortunate that my husband is very handy. If something is leaking, loose, broken, or making funny sounds, he can usually fix it. And if the roof needs redoing, a wall needs repainting, or you need a backhoe driven, he can do that, too.
The one thing he doesn’t really like to do, however, is electrical work. So the walk-in closet in our house that has no interior light (seriously, who builds a walk-in with no light?) still is shrouded in darkness after the sun goes down. And the new garage door opener that we’d like to have installed still hasn’t been.
The new Chores Market website aims to help you take care of those chores you don’t have the skills or time to complete. Chores Market is an online marketplace where you can get your chores done by skilled people in your area. You choose from people that you or your friends already know that are part of your Facebook or Google+ network so you know you’re getting trusted help.
When you post a chore that you need help with you can include a fixed price or leave it open to negotiations. Then you can ask for referrals from your network for the person you’re planning to hire. You pay the Chores Market website directly with your credit card and they in turn deposit payment directly into the bank account of the person you’ve selected. And the work is even guaranteed with a 5-day warranty.
Not only can you post chores you need help with, you can apply to fill chores that others have listed. Some of the recently posted chores waiting to be filled include:
- Cleaning gutters
- Photographer
- Staining a fence
- Sewing
- Water heater installation
- Patio Work
There’s even one for making applesauce! This gives you a great opportunity to put your hidden talents to use and earn a little extra money. That’s especially great for the holidays.
With over 229,000 social connections added by Chores Market users you’re likely to be able to find someone willing to help you with your task. You might even be able to get a little help paying for your first chore. Just head over to Outnumbered 3 to 1 and enter to win a $50 VISA gift card courtesy of Chores Market.
