Are all professionals on Kokobeo licensed and insured?

Yes. Every locksmith 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.

How long does escrow payment take to release?

Once you approve completed work, payment typically releases to the locksmith within 24-48 hours. This processing time ensures all documentation is complete and provides a brief window for any final adjustments if needed.

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 locksmiths.

Can I hire for recurring services?

Yes! Many customers set up recurring arrangements for regular maintenance, cleaning, or ongoing services. You can establish a schedule with your locksmith, with each appointment protected by escrow. This ensures consistent quality even for routine work.

What's the difference between hourly and fixed price hiring?

Hourly hiring is perfect for jobs where the scope might change or for ongoing maintenance. You pay only for actual hours worked, tracked in real-time. Fixed price is better for well-defined projects where you want to know the total cost upfront. Both options include full escrow protection.
