Setstone

Setstone is escrow for building work. The customer funds each milestone up front, the money is held securely by an FCA regulated, independent payment provider, and it's released as soon as the milestone is signed off. FOR CONTRACTORS • Payment is secured in escrow before you lift a tool • Get paid the moment each milestone is signed off • Win more jobs: homeowners say they'd pay more to a contractor who offers escrow • 2% + VAT per milestone as it's paid out, and nothing on work that isn't. No subscription, no setup fee FOR HOMEOWNERS • Only pay for work that's actually done • Approve each milestone before the money moves • Free for homeowners HOW IT WORKS 1. Agree the job and its milestones 2. The customer funds the first milestone into escrow 3. The work gets done, it's signed off, the contractor is paid Everything about the job lives in one shared record: scope, milestones, photos and sign-offs, so both sides are working to the same plan. Built for UK renovations, extensions and building work.
