tamam.be: the home services marketplace that respects both sides

Belgium’s marketplace for home jobs: verified tradespeople, comparable quotes, no contact-detail spam. Built and operated by Probex.

Finding a tradesperson in Belgium shouldn't feel like a gamble

Ask any Belgian homeowner: finding a reliable handyman, plumber or painter means asking around, calling five numbers, and hoping. Ask any tradesperson and you hear the other side: expensive lead-gen platforms that sell your contact details to three competitors. We built tamam.be to fix both sides of that market at once.

What tamam.be does

Tamam.be is Belgium's home services marketplace. Homeowners describe a job — a leaky roof, a garden fence, a full renovation — and compare quotes from verified local professionals. Reviews are real, identities are checked, and the homeowner's details are shared only with the professionals they actually choose to contact. No call-centre spam. Trades sign up free and pay only for the jobs they take.

The trust layer, in three pieces

  1. Verification — every professional passes identity and trade checks before appearing in search results.
  2. Transparency — quotes are structured and comparable: scope, price, timing, warranty. Not a black box.
  3. Smart matching — a matching engine pairs each job with the local professionals most likely to win and deliver it well, instead of blasting it to everyone.

For tradespeople: a free channel that respects you

Your expertise is the product — tamam.be doesn't sell your number to the highest bidder. You see the job before you commit, quote on your own terms, and build a public track record through verified reviews. For independent tradespeople and small firms, it is a steady flow of local work without the marketing budget.

For homeowners: compare without the spam

Your details go only where you decide. Quotes arrive in a comparable format so you can actually judge scope against price. And every review you read comes from a completed, paid job.

Why we built it ourselves

Tamam.be is a Probex product, launched in May 2026. We made a deliberate engineering choice on the matching engine: we buy the embedding API and own the service around it — the honest build-vs-buy tradeoff we explain in our field guide. The result is a marketplace that scales without a hockey-stick cloud bill.
