How it works.
Every item on a repair request goes through the same three steps: you enter it, Baseline diagnoses and prices it, and your own tradesperson accepts it at that price.
Baseline diagnoses from the evidence.
You enter the item as the buyer wrote it. The inspector's finding, the photos, the equipment's age, and comparable cases give Baseline a root cause with a confidence score, and an alternate when it isn't sure. The answer starts from the cheapest signal and stops when it's sure, so most items never need a visit.

You send the agreed work to your own tradesperson.
Enter the tradesperson's phone number or email. Baseline invites them to view the item, the diagnosis, and the price, and to accept the job at that price. No round of bids, and no explaining the problem over the phone.
