# Find work. Find help.

> Contractors post day work and helper shifts with the pay shown. Anyone looking for construction work puts up a free card and says the night before that they’re free. Phones and addresses stay private until both sides say yes. Live now, in English and Spanish.

## Live now: the jobs and crew board

The board is the first tab of the Community in StudSheet, in any phone or computer browser (the iPhone and Android apps are coming). Anyone can read it. To post, put up a card or answer, sign in with your email and pick a handle. A language switch puts the whole board in Spanish.

[Sign in to post](https://app.studsheet.com/auth?next=/community) · [Open the board](https://app.studsheet.com/community) · [Ver en español](https://app.studsheet.com/community?lang=es)

The rest of the [community](https://studsheet.com/forum) is one tab over: questions with the Sheet attached, quote checks, safety calls by verified pros, and the town board for leftover materials.

### For contractors

- **Post a job in a minute**: what kind of help (helper, framer, drywaller, tile setter, glass and railing installer, welder, painter, electrician’s or plumber’s helper), today, tomorrow with a start time, or given days, the town, and the pay per hour or per day.
- **One tap from a job**: “Need extra hands for this job?” on the job page fills in the trade, the town and the work for you.
- **Pickup or own ride**: say whether people need their own ride or meet you at a pickup spot.
- **See who’s interested**, with their trades, tools, ride, days and rate. Accept or decline. Or find a worker’s card and send a request for your job.
- **Their phone shows when you accept.** Your phone, the street address and the pickup spot go only to the people you accept.

### For anyone looking for work, free forever

- **A worker card**: your first name, an optional photo, your trades and level (general helper and demo, or experienced in the trade), your tools (hand tools, your own power tools, or labor only), your ride (own car or truck, or a pickup near your town), the days you can work, your rate, the languages you speak, and a short note.
- **“I’m available today” or “tomorrow”**: switch it on the night before or early in the morning. It turns itself off after the day.
- **Tap “I’m interested”** on a job near you. When the contractor accepts, you get their phone and the address or pickup spot.
- **Homeowners too.** Looking for construction work? Put up your card from the Community tab.

### The rules, from day one

- **The pay is on every post**, and the board refuses pay below the minimum wage where the work is: in 2026, $15.92 an hour in New Jersey; $17.00 in New York City, Long Island and Westchester and $16.00 in the rest of New York State. A day rate must cover 8 hours of it.
- **No nationality or ethnicity** in posts, cards or notes. Filters are trade, area, pay, ride, tools and languages only. Posts that mention nationality wait for a review by the StudSheet team.
- **StudSheet connects people. It doesn’t employ anyone.** On every post, contractors confirm they handle work authorization, job-site safety and protective gear, insurance, and paying the agreed rate directly.
- **Workers confirm they’re 18 or older.**
- **Phones, emails and addresses are never on the board.** They’re shared only between two people who both said yes.
- **Report and block on every post and card.** Reports go to the StudSheet team; three reports hold a post until they look. Blocking hides you from each other.
- **Posts come down after their day.** Cards stay up for 14 days at a time.

Coming later: “On my way” check-ins, ratings both ways, reports of unpaid wages and phone verification.

## Also live: the lead board

- **Homeowners** post the job with their Sheet attached: what it is, the sizes, the town and when they’d like it done.
- **Each request goes to at most 3 verified local pros** in that trade and area. No bidding wars with 20 strangers.
- **The homeowner’s contact unlocks when you respond.** Phone numbers and emails are never public.
- **Verified means checked**: the StudSheet team checks your license or registration and insurance before you can answer.
- Answering requests is free for pros registered in the app. [How to get quote requests](https://app.studsheet.com/leads/join).
