Job initiation
From first call to first brick.
Build link Zambia gives clients free consultation and recommendations, plus two free monitoring site visits after work starts. Only the initial site visit — to capture and verify project details — is paid by the client. Work begins once the provider has settled the platform's private service arrangement.
Client eligibility summary
Free consultation & recommendations
Unlimited project discussion and provider recommendations with a Build link Zambia consultant at no charge.
Initial site visit (paid by client)
The first site visit — used by the provider to capture and verify project details — is paid by the client to cover movement to site.
Two free monitoring visits
After the initial visit, the next two site visits to monitor and control work are free.
No platform fee for clients
Build link Zambia's service arrangement is settled privately with the provider — clients never pay it and never need to see the amount.
Extra visits on request
Clients can request additional site visits beyond the two free monitoring visits at any time.
Nationwide scaling
Starting in Lusaka, with the same process ready for the rest of Zambia.
The six-step journey.
We keep the process transparent so clients know exactly what is free, what triggers work to start, and where Build link Zambia adds independent value.
Find a providerStep 1
Free consultation & recommendations
Tell us what you want to build. A Build link Zambia consultant listens to your goals, checks feasibility, and recommends the right providers — all at no cost.
Step 2
Match with a verified provider
We help you shortlist providers by trade, area, and track record. You can also browse the public directory and request contact through a provider's profile.
Step 3
Initial site visit (paid by client)
The first site visit — used by the provider to capture and verify project details before quoting — is paid by the client to facilitate movement to site.
Step 4
Quote accepted & platform arrangement settled
Once you accept the provider's quote, the provider settles a one-off service arrangement with Build link Zambia. The terms of that arrangement are private between the platform and the provider — you're never asked to contribute to it. Work should not begin until it's settled.
Step 5
Work begins with two free monitoring visits
Once the provider has settled with the platform, work starts. The next two site visits — used to monitor and control the work — are free. Extra visits can be arranged at the client's request.
Step 6
Ongoing quality assurance (optional)
You can add independent inspections, progress checks, or snagging beyond the two free monitoring visits at any time.
