About FundiMtaani
Nairobi's dedicated local trade directory. We connect you directly with vetted plumbers, electricians, carpenters and technicians in your neighbourhood — no middlemen, no extra fees.
Our story
Every Nairobi resident knows the drill. The tap starts leaking, the lights go off, the door lock jams — and the first question is always the same: "Do you know a good fundi?"
Word of mouth is unreliable. Random numbers from notice boards are a gamble. FundiMtaani was built to fix that — one verified directory where every fundi is a real person with a confirmed identity, a clear trade, honest reviews from neighbours, and a rate you can see before you call.
We keep it simple on purpose: we handle matching and booking. You deal directly with your fundi and pay them directly when the work is done. The platform takes no cut from your job.
The FundiMtaani promise
- Real people only. Every fundi passes an identity check before appearing in the directory.
- Direct contact. Call or WhatsApp your fundi yourself — no call centres in between.
- Honest reviews. Ratings come from neighbours who actually booked the fundi.
- Fair pricing. Agree the price up front, pay after the work is done.
How it works
From search to done in four steps.
1. Search
Type what you need in plain language — even Sheng. Smart search matches it to the right trade instantly.
2. Compare
Browse verified fundis in your estate. Check badges, reviews, photos of past work and rate cards.
3. Book
Pick a date that suits you and send a booking request. The fundi confirms, and you're set.
4. Pay direct
Pay your fundi directly — M-Pesa or cash — after the work is done. FundiMtaani takes no commission.
Hyperlocal by design
Fundis only list in estates they genuinely serve, so you're matched with someone nearby — not across town.
We're live in our 3 pilot neighbourhoods and expanding across Nairobi through the estate waitlist. See where we cover.
Verification you can see
The Verified badge isn't decoration. It's only awarded to fundis with an approved National ID or Passport on file.
Low ratings and complaints trigger re-verification or removal. How Trust & Safety works.
