The Whala Way
Customers are saving an average of 40% on their projects using Whala Pro's when compared to fixed-price quotes they have received from trade companies.
Trade companies
❌ Tradies offer you a “free quote”.
❌ They work out the hours your job will take them, then double it to be safe.
❌ They source materials for you, then add their margin.
❌ They add these amounts together, and provide you their quote
❌ They add all these things up then add an additional buffer to cover any unforeseen issues
Whala
✅ You book the tradie you need under a fixed hourly rate.
✅ You pay them only for the hours they actually work.
✅ If they source materials for you, you pay the exact cost price.
✅ Your job is done! And it cost you roughly half the amount of the ‘free quote’ you received.
