Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a fee to use Kokobeo?

Getting quotes and browsing professionals is completely free. A small service fee is added when you hire a general contractor, which covers our escrow protection, platform maintenance, and customer support. The fee is clearly shown before you commit to any hiring decision.

Can I get a written contract?

Yes! We encourage written agreements for larger projects. Many general contractors 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.

What happens if a professional doesn't show up?

If a scheduled general contractor doesn't show up, contact our support immediately. Your escrow payment remains protected. We'll help you find a replacement professional quickly, and the no-show professional faces penalties including possible removal from our platform.

How detailed should my project description be?

The more details, the better! Include project scope, timeline, specific requirements, and any relevant photos. Detailed descriptions help general contractors provide accurate quotes and reduce misunderstandings. You can always discuss specifics further before starting work.

Can I communicate directly with the professional?

Absolutely! Once you select a general contractor, you can communicate directly through our platform's messaging system. This allows you to discuss project details, share photos, ask questions, and coordinate schedules while keeping everything documented for your protection.

Are there any hidden fees?

No hidden fees ever. The price you see when hiring a general contractor is exactly what you pay. Our small service fee is clearly displayed before you commit. Professionals cannot add surprise charges - any additional costs must be approved by you before work proceeds.

What makes Kokobeo different from other platforms?

Our escrow payment system is the key difference. Unlike platforms where you pay directly to contractors, Kokobeo holds payment securely until you approve work. Combined with verified professionals, transparent pricing, and dispute resolution, we provide unmatched protection for every general contractor you hire.

What geographic areas do you serve?

Kokobeo serves all of New York and surrounding areas in NY. Our network includes professionals willing to travel throughout the region. When posting your project, you'll see which general contractors serve your specific location and their travel policies.
