How much do professionally implemented craft services cost at Helferei?

We work with qualified partner companies and subcontractors for jobs that need to be carried out professionally, such as laying floors and tiles, or painting and electrical work.

In some cases, e.g. standard jobs such as connecting a stove/oven or certain painting work, they can estimate the price in advance. As a rule, however, they will first come to you for a free inspection. You will then receive an offer for a lump sum, including all the details of its composition. If you accept this, the order will be placed.

We try to estimate the final amount as accurately as possible in the quotation. However, we ask for your understanding that it is sometimes not possible to predict all details precisely in the trade. There were also invoices that deviated from the amount quoted. Transparent communication directly with the tradesman before invoicing is the be-all and end-all here.

What special features do I need to bear in mind when booking a professional craftsman?

Please note the following: Especially in the skilled trades, communicating as many details as possible benefits the quality of the results of an order - for example:

  • Dimensions
  • Materials
  • Available aids / tools
  • Photos as attachment

Such information is not only extremely helpful when selecting suitable helpers. Certain helpers might accept or reject your assignment precisely because they (do not) have the necessary tools, for example.

Above all, however, this information serves to ensure good preparation and smooth implementation of your order.

So use the information field in our online booking so that your order is placed with the right person.

How can I be sure that I will find the right, qualified specialist for my project in the skilled and certified crafts?

Three points are particularly important to us at Helferei to ensure a good fit between you and the helpers in carpentry:

Proven knowledge & qualifications: For jobs that need to be carried out by a specialist (e.g. painting and floor laying work, electrics), we only work with subcontractors and partner companies. We pay particular attention to proven knowledge and experience in the trades and for interior work that requires professional specialization. We check this for all helpers and ask for further details in a telephone call before we activate these profiles on our platform. Find out more in our terms of use.

Availability in terms of time and location: In addition to technical knowledge, another issue in the skilled trades is availability. In terms of time and location. If possible, we will accommodate your schedule and any urgencies. We know how difficult it is to get support in the skilled trades.

Are the craft services insured by Helferei ?

As described, we work with partner companies and subcontractors in this area.

Helferei acts purely as an intermediary. This means that our tradespeople are themselves responsible for complying with the relevant safety and insurance precautions for orders. In the case of particularly complex orders or very valuable items, we recommend checking with the respective craftsmen whether the relevant insurance cover is in place. This is usually the case, as the tradespeople have relevant insurance for their own business operations.

You can find out more about this and our disclaimer in our General Terms and Conditions.

Do the handymen bring their own tools and equipment?

Our partner companies and subcontractors in the trades are of course equipped with the usual tools and aids for regular jobs.

However, when it comes to the specific requirements of your job (who will provide the materials, who will carry out certain preparatory measures such as masking before painting work, priming before flooring work, etc.), it is very important that you communicate transparently with your helpers in advance. This way, everyone is prepared in the best possible way and your job can be completed to everyone's complete satisfaction without any surprises.

What do I do if I am not satisfied with the result of a carpentry order?

 There are two options here:

  • Agreement between you and the tradesperson: Either you agree directly with the craftsman or craftswoman on improvements immediately after completion of the job. By the way: a possible and fair adjustment of the invoice amount for both sides can be part of this agreement. You would only have to communicate this to the Helferei .
  • Mediation of a fair solution by the Helferei: If this does not work, you can contact the Helferei by email at any time. We support both sides in finding a fair solution. Write to our customer service: support@die-helferei.de

Small but important tip: In general, we can only emphasize how important communication between you and your helpers is before the start of the job, especially in the skilled trades sector. Don't be afraid to address all relevant details and open questions in advance - there's no such thing as a stupid question! Experience has shown that this is very beneficial for everyone's satisfaction. At the very latest, you should clarify any discrepancies or misunderstandings before invoicing.

Qualified specialists for your interior work in Berlin & Munich

At Helferei , we provide you with experienced and certified tradespeople for all types of interior work - from electrical installations and floor laying to painting and bathroom renovations. All of our helpers have been working independently in their specialist field for many years and have practical experience, either as the owner of a craft business or as a sole trader. They have demonstrable qualifications - whether as electricians, tilers, floor layers or painters.

Our selection follows strict criteria: Every helper goes through a verification process on our platform - including identity check, proof of trade license and, where required, professional certificates. This way, you can be sure that your interior work will be carried out professionally and reliably.

Good work starts with a good conversation

For regular interior work such as installing lamps, painting walls, putting up shelves or laying flooring, many helpers bring their own tools. If you need special materials (e.g. a special floor covering, a certain wall paint, masking tape, etc.) or special spare parts (e.g. special tiles, plugs, silicone, sockets, etc.), you can either get them yourself or agree in advance with the handyman that he will do this - transparently and easily.
