Frequently Asked Questions

How do milestone payments work?

For larger projects, you can set specific milestones (e.g., 25% after planning, 50% after halfway completion, 25% after final inspection). Payment releases from escrow as each milestone is completed to your satisfaction. This keeps you in control throughout the project.

Are all professionals on Kokobeo licensed and insured?

Yes. Every carpenter on our platform is verified, licensed (where required by MA law), and carries appropriate insurance. We conduct background checks and verify credentials before approving any professional to join Kokobeo.

Can I pause a project midway?

Yes, though it's best to discuss this possibility upfront with your carpenter. For milestone-based projects, you can pause between milestones. Any completed work will be calculated and paid from escrow, with remaining funds available when you're ready to resume.

Can I request specific qualifications or certifications?

Yes! When posting your project, you can specify required certifications, experience levels, or specialized training needed for your job. Professionals without these qualifications won't be able to submit quotes, ensuring you only hear from qualified carpenters.

What if the professional needs to buy materials?

For fixed-price projects, materials are typically included in the quote. For hourly projects, you can either purchase materials yourself or reimburse the professional. All material costs should be discussed and agreed upon before work begins, with receipts provided for transparency.

What if I'm not satisfied with the work?

If you're not satisfied, simply don't release the payment from escrow. Contact our support team and we'll mediate the situation. If the issue can't be resolved, you'll receive a full refund. Your money stays protected until you're 100% happy with the results.

How do I know my personal information is secure?

We use bank-level encryption for all data transmission and storage. Payment information is processed through secure, PCI-compliant systems. We never share your personal details with professionals until you choose to hire them, and you control what information is shared.

Can I get a written contract?

Yes! We encourage written agreements for larger projects. Many carpenters provide detailed proposals or contracts outlining scope, timeline, and pricing. These documents supplement our platform's standard terms and your escrow protection for complete clarity.
