Field Services & Repair

Field work, booked directly. Rated by dimension.

Surveyors, repair shops, and supply stores have been funneled through dispatch platforms and distributor layers for decades. DredgeCred puts you one click from the operator who needs you — with ratings that reward responsiveness, accuracy, and follow-through.

  • Direct bookings with no dispatch-platform commissions

  • Emergency-repair flag surfaces your availability in the fleet feed

  • Ratings across six dimensions, not a single star

  • Parts-by-project lookup wires supply stores into active jobs

Pick your exact role

The hub groups 3 specific user categories. Each one has its own profile fields, rating dimensions, and fee model.

Agency / broker commission on survey engagements

10% of survey fee to 15% of survey fee

5% of service fee, capped at $2,500 per engagement

What you get: Direct listing in the surveyor directory, DC Score visible to buyers, region-filtered provider map, repeat-engagement rating history.

How DredgeCred saves you money

Repair Technician / Service Company

Industry standard

Dispatch-platform commission or equipment-dealer referral

15% per booking to 25% per booking

What you get: Job lead only. No customer follow-through, no rating that stays with you, typically no emergency surcharge recognition.

DredgeCred

Direct, verified, rated.

5% of service fee, capped at $2,500 per engagement

What you get: Direct bookings, emergency-repair flag surfaced to operators, transaction-anchored ratings by dimension (response time, diagnostic accuracy, parts sourcing).

Traditional

$120,000/yr (20% dispatch commission)

How DredgeCred saves you money

Marine / Electrical / Industrial Supply Store

Industry standard

Distributor margin layered on direct sales

15% distributor markup to 25% distributor markup

What you get: Regional warehousing and cataloging. Useful but opaque — contractors pay a premium they don't see.

DredgeCred

Direct, verified, rated.

2% of order, capped at $1,000 per order

What you get: Direct connection to active projects, parts-by-project lookup, order history tied to the project record, reorder prompts on recurring consumables.

Worked example

Supply store doing $2M/year through distribution

Traditional

$400,000/yr (20% average margin give-up)

DredgeCred

~$40,000/yr (2%, mostly capped)

You keep

~$360,000/yr margin capture if direct-channel displaces distribution — recompete distributor terms with the data in hand.

Numbers are industry-typical ranges, not firm quotes. DredgeCred rates come directly from the platform fee schedule and are capped per transaction where noted.
