Why not add the size of the area to be cleaned?
Thumbtack prompts them to put in the Size of their Home, but doesn't ask them for the Size of the area to be cleaned. EXAMPLE: A 3700 Square Foot Home’s Lead Cost $78.94 in our area. The cost to clean might be $100.00 to $150.00. This request gives the Pro, little opportunity to make any profit from the job. When I ask about this issue, I was told to change my preferences, so I did. Instead of up to 5000 Square Feet, my preference is up to 2000 Square feet. My account is set for Auto Refill, but Three request at this rate, which is not uncommon, equals $236.82. And that doesn’t mean I will get any of the jobs. I get the pay to play piece, but Thumbtack needs to add this option in this area of Pressure Washing. FYI: I have over 500 jobs done and over 400 Five Star Reviews. This is my Fifth Year on Thumbtack. I think this qualifies me as a Pro.
