Why trust JengaLink?

Clients connect with trusted, qualified experts verified by JengaLink.

Verified means the submitted credential or trading licence was reviewed. It is not a guarantee of workmanship, price, or reliability.

Reviewed credentials and licences

Professional credentials and supplier trading licences are reviewed before a listing is recommended.

Written quotes you can compare

Labour quotes and material quotes are written down, including delivery and offloading, so you can compare them before you commit.

A record of each stage you approve

On a build with stage records, you pay the professional directly after you approve the stage. JengaLink stores the approval and the M-Pesa reference. JengaLink does not hold the money and does not charge a fee.

Read the trust and safety rules

Build with confidence

Check the work before you pay.

Three checks before money changes hands. The full rules are on the trust and safety page.

Pay a recorded stage after inspection

On a project that uses stage records, a stage stays unpaid until the professional marks it ready, you accept a written labour quote, and you confirm that you inspected it. You then pay the professional directly. A quick repair can use a simpler process.

Confirm stock before you accept a quote

A materials quote on JengaLink includes delivery and offloading, even when that cost is zero because you will collect the goods. The quote cannot be accepted until the supplier confirms the goods are still in stock. Count the items before you pay the supplier. JengaLink does not take that payment.

Check the register yourself

Check the NCA number and the county approval yourself. JengaLink does not issue licences or submit permit applications.

Common questions

Four answers to start with.

How do I request help with a construction project?

Enter your project type, location down to the ward, requested professions, and project details. After submitting, create a client password if you are signed out, choose your professionals, then add suppliers if needed.

How are professionals recommended?

JengaLink recommends active, verified professionals for each requested trade, ordering by location proximity and then client star scores. You can review the recommendations and choose your team.

How do stage approvals and payments work?

On projects using stage records, the professional marks a stage ready, you accept the itemized labour quote and confirm your inspection, then pay the professional directly. Record the M-Pesa reference against the stage. While a dispute is open, JengaLink will not record that stage as paid, and it will not record payment for another stage either. JengaLink records approvals and payment references but does not hold, send, or recover your money. A quick repair can use a simpler process.

Does JengaLink issue licences or building approvals?

No. JengaLink does not issue professional licences or county building approvals. Clients should verify applicable contractor registrations, professional credentials, electrical contractor licensing, and project registration requirements through the relevant official registers and authorities. County building approvals must be obtained through the appropriate county process. JengaLink does not submit these applications on your behalf.
