Examples

Use on-demand

"My Airbnb needs a turnover before 3pm," "mount this TV," "the kitchen faucet is leaking," "help me move a couch." Clear scope → upfront price → book.

Use project quotes

"Finish my basement," "replace the roof," "build a deck," "renovate the bathroom." Variable scope → post once → compare quotes → choose.
