Mick’s new idea to help all the homeowners

BELLEWSTOWN man, Michael Dillon has launched a new website called TrustedPeople. ie, aimed to match homeowners with reliable tradespeople.

“This site is particularly suited to those with visual work portfolios such as architects, builders, landscapers, carpenters, interior designers and other home professionals. We see this as a site for professional tradespeople who work to the highest standards, and for discerning homeowners who are more interested in quality work than the lowest possible quotation,” said Michael.

“Many economists are predicting that full employment will be achieved by the end of this year. For some homeowners this is translating into a difficulty in finding reliable tradespeople. However, while many tradespeople report they are “run off their feet”, they say that many homeowners still have recessionary mindsets. This is where a website matching more discerning homeowners with the best tradespeople in Ireland makes sense from everyone’s perspective.’

Membership of TrustedPeople.ie is by invitation only. He has plans to launch localised versions of the website in the UK and Australia later this year.
