Find Labourers Across Merseyside and Liverpool City Region

Liverpool's building scene keeps growing — from the ongoing waterfront regeneration around Bramley-Moore Dock and the Ten Streets creative quarter to major residential schemes in the Baltic Triangle and Vauxhall. If you're running a renovation in Aigburth, need ground workers for a housing development in Norris Green, or require demolition support on a commercial strip-out in the city centre, Grafter puts you in touch with over 800 labourers across Merseyside who are ready to get stuck in.

Instead of going through a recruitment agency and paying inflated day rates, Grafter lets you browse labourer profiles with real client reviews and uploaded documents. You post the job, set the rate, and negotiate directly with the workers who apply — keeping the whole process transparent and under your control from first message to finished job.

What Clients Say About Hiring on Grafter
