It is a minimum price/hour for each country/city and each provider can increase/decrease his price/hour based on her/his own schedule, day of the week or hours or even in national holidays in a certain location.
Materials (for exemple for cleaning services) are extra, so if you’re getting something to clean, you need to provide or pay for the cleaning products and tools or to book a privider with this option inluded on the final price.
To get an estimate budget, select the service you need by posting a job or making a new booking and follow the instructions.
You’ll be given an estimate budget based on the details of your job/task in a maximum 1 week.
Do I need to be home?
Whether or not you’re home during your booking is up to you!
When you make a booking, you’ll be prompted to give your professional entry instructions.
If you have a doorman or can hide a key somewhere or you use a keypoint service, there’s no need for you to be home.
Feel free to stick around during the booking. Whatever you’re most comfortable with is fine.
In any case, please don’t forget about your bookings.
We’ll remind you with an email, a text message, and a push notification, but if your service provider can’t get in the door by following your entry instructions, or if you aren’t home when you said you would be, you’ll be charged the full cost of the booking.
