The Customer and Provider Problem
- Customers may struggle to find reliable tradespeople and assess their experience before hiring them.
- Unclear prices, appointment delays, and limited service information can make repair decisions stressful.
- Skilled tradesmen may have difficulty reaching new customers and maintaining a steady flow of work.
- A fragmented search and booking process can undermine trust and create avoidable service disputes.

Services and Booking Journey
- Core categories include electrical repairs, plumbing, carpentry, air conditioning, appliance care, and painting.
- Customers create an account, select a service, and submit a request with a suitable appointment time.
- They connect with a tradesman, review an estimate, confirm the appointment, and receive the service.
- Payment and customer feedback complete the journey, helping inform future service choices and quality.
