Frequently asked questions
Where does this data come from?
Every number on this page is aggregated from anonymised HomeSorted marketplace transactions — completed bookings, accepted quotes, provider ratings and response timestamps. We never expose an individual job, price or provider.
How often is this page refreshed?
The underlying aggregates are recomputed every 24 hours, so this page auto-updates as new bookings complete. The "Updated" date at the top reflects the most recent recompute.
What is the minimum sample size?
We only surface a bucket (a location, a month, a category) when it contains at least 5 anonymised data points. This protects privacy and keeps the statistics reliable.
Why do prices vary so much?
Because home services are inherently variable — a plumber who unblocks a drain and a plumber who reroutes a whole bathroom charge very different amounts. We publish the 25th, 50th and 75th percentile bands so you can see the realistic range, not just the average.

Methodology & privacy
Every number is aggregated from anonymised HomeSorted marketplace transactions. Buckets with fewer than 5 data points are suppressed. Currency values are rounded to the nearest R10 to prevent re-identification. Personal data is never exposed. Data is refreshed every 24 hours. Read our full Editorial Standards and Privacy Practices.
