Managing maintenance is a full-time job you didn't sign up for

Most businesses waste hours every week chasing multiple contractors, following up on jobs, and keeping track of what was done and what wasn't. It's fragmented, frustrating, and expensive.

Fonster Business replaces all of that with one managed service. Report the problem, describe the urgency — and we assign a vetted contractor, track the job, and verify completion. You watch it happen from your dashboard.

Fonster solves all of this
One company. All trades. Full visibility from request to completion

Everything you need to manage maintenance at scale

The Fonster Business Portal was built specifically for facilities teams and office managers who need control without complexity.

📈
Live Ticket Dashboard
See all your active, pending, and completed jobs at a glance. Filter by status, urgency, or service type. No more chasing updates by phone.
📌
Unique Reference Numbers
Every ticket gets a unique FST reference number — making it easy to track, reference in invoices, and build a maintenance history for your property.
🚨
Urgency Levels
Mark jobs as Normal, High, or Emergency. Urgent tickets are prioritised in our contractor assignment queue — so a burst pipe gets treated like a burst pipe.
🏢
Multi-Site Support
Add multiple site addresses under one account. Property managers can submit tickets for any of their sites and see all jobs in a single view.
📄
Full Job History
Every completed ticket is archived with details, dates, and contractor info. Perfect for lease agreements, insurance claims, and facility audits.

Why our contractors actually show up

Most lead generation companies sell the same job to five contractors and charge per lead — whether the contractor gets the work or not. Fonster works differently.

Each contractor in our network has category exclusivity in their area. They pay nothing upfront. They earn by completing jobs well. That's why they pitch on time, finish the work, and come back if something isn't right — their relationship with Fonster depends on it.

The smarter way to manage commercial maintenance

🔓
Free to Your Business — Always
Fonster charges your business nothing. Not for the portal, not per job, not ever. We earn a small commission from the contractor when a job is completed. You get a fully managed maintenance service at no cost.
Vetted Contractors Only
Every contractor in our network is screened before being assigned to business clients. You don't need to take a chance on an unknown.
🎯
Single Point of Responsibility
You report the problem to Fonster. We own it until it's resolved — no contractor chasing, no follow-ups, no unfinished jobs left open.
🌀
All Trades. One Provider.
Electrician one day, plumber the next, pressure cleaner the week after — all submitted through the same system, tracked the same way.
🚀
Fast Contractor Assignment
Our team reviews and assigns a contractor within hours of ticket submission — not days. High-urgency tickets are prioritised immediately.
📋
Complete Paper Trail
Every job is logged with a reference number, timestamps, and contractor details — giving you the maintenance history your auditors and insurers want.
