Our story

LinkinTech, the Brussels startup bringing trust back to home repairs

LinkinTech was born in Brussels, between Uccle and the city centre, from a simple observation: finding a reliable plumber or electrician on a Sunday evening is pure luck. We built the platform we wanted to use — every partner company is verified, every price is stated before the tools come out.

Our mission

Make technical repairs in Brussels as readable as a taxi ride: you know who is coming, when, and what it costs. LinkinTech performs no work itself — we select, verify and equip independent Brussels companies, then match them with the right request.

What sets us apart in Brussels

  • Official company-number verification (BCE/KBO) before any match.
  • Certifications checked on document: RGIE, INCERT, BOSEC, ISO 9001 — a company without the required certificate is excluded from matching.
  • Price stated up front: an indicative range online, then a binding written quote from the company.
  • Geographic matching by Brussels postcode: the closest genuinely available company, not the highest bidder.
  • Brussels context built in: older housing stock, stoneware drains, shared risers in co-ownerships, Vivaqua and Sibelga contacts, 6% VAT for homes over 10 years old.
  • Quotes and invoices compliant with Belgian law, generated in-platform, with messaging and appointment slots.

Two Brussels locals, two reasons

Zack

In 2023, a leak at my mother's place in Uccle ended with a €940 bill for a washer and two hours of work. No price was ever quoted, no name was ever given.

LinkinTech was born from that phone call. We call every tradesperson, check their certifications one by one, and turn away anyone who won't quote a price before starting. We turn away a lot of them.

Damine

I grew up above a café on rue de la Madeleine, 1000 Brussels. When the boiler gave out, we'd wait for days, never knowing who would come or what it would cost.

I met Zack one evening, during a breakdown of all things. We spent the night listing everything a Brussels resident should get in five minutes: a name, a price, a time. LinkinTech is that list, made real.
