Used it twice. Payment is easy and communication with the booked provider as well. Good overwiew over all available providers and their prices.

Helpful service but challenging to find a reliable and good cleaner

I have been a customer for Helpling for years. I appreciate that they are constantly improving their survices, but I find it very annoying that over half of the cleaners do not show up at the first appointment for various reasons. I even had a case where the cleaner accepted the request and immediately sent me a DM if she can come on another day. This is frustrating because I cannot count on the cleaning being done on time and Helpling does nothing to improve compliance.

Having said that, once you find a reliable (and truly reliable) cleaner, then the service is good. Luckily I never had a damage, so I can't report on how it would be reimbursed.

In principle the concept works and the the costs for cleaners are reasonable. However, there seem to be a shortage of good quality reliable cleaners and a lot of people who aren’t motivated to do a good job - possibly connected to the low pay they receive. The average hourly rate is about €20 but Helpling take 30% of this. No wonder the cleaners arent very motivated. The mobile app is a little glitchy as well on the reviews so it is difficult to scroll down to see the poorer reviews.

Dear Oliver, we are happy that you like our concept and that you're basically satisfied with the quality of the cleanings. But we are also sad that you encountered providers who created an unmotivated impression.

Please note that the cleaners on our platform work as independent service providers - therefore they define their own prices and this way can manage their earnings individually (despite the fixed commission).
If you have questions regarding our business model or to give us detailed feedback to the App, please reach out! Best, Helpling

Solid but with improvement potential

Overview and usability becomes better step by step - supports the process also better now (can do most of the standard actions)
Some improvenment ideas
* enable to add ratings from App even if you chose "later" before and not only via mail
* implement Login Services like Google, Microsoft etc.
* Implement possility to add other users to manage the orders.

10/10

Recommended by a friend, I got a service professional coming to mine within a few clicks. I had the occasion to consult their customer care for a specific request and I was delighted by how they handle everything with such good care and kindness.

They sent a true devil to destroy my home!

It was a disaster!
This Monday Helping.de sent a devil to destroy my house:
1, She said she is Dutch, but she cant speak Dutch, English nor German! In fact she couldn’t understand one simple sentence “only use water to clean”!
2, She uses WC acid without water to clean my 16,000 euros new floor!
3, She uses Drano to clean my new 25,000 euros new bathroom!
4, She uses 3 Swiffer, wet to clean the floor!
5, She only worked for 2 hours but Helping charges me 3 hours!

I opened a case (ID 9777) and have been trying to reach helping customer service for days, but no one answer!

To reply the Helping insincere answer, which is purely for marketing purpose below: yes, I have been contacting Helping intensively for days, but no customer service ever reach out to me to discuss the solution except for an auto-replied email. My lawyer has now been involved.

Helpling commission

My issue with helpling is the commission. It is too high. What I get is too small.

Very good service.

Very good service.
Booking a cleaning person is simple and easy.
The whole process couldn’t be more straight forward.
We had a very good first experience.
I would suggest adding a filter for languages preferred too.
And offer cleaning services that include the tools/cleaning products.

The fact that all my customers are well satisfied with my services gives me a great joy.

The fact that all my customers are well satisfied with my services gives me a great joy. And the platform provides me with all the information I need to locate the customer that makes my work earlier. Not forgetting the early reminder by the platform about our services each time. I believe my cleaning experience has greatly improved due to customers satisfaction. Thank you so much Helping for this great opportunities.

Best website for finding help with chores

Easy-to-use platform and affordable prices for many different services. I primarily use Helpling to connect with cleaners and the entire process is extremely convenient with their website.

Customer service is also very reliable and helpful. They've always been able to solve my problems any time I needed help!
