Frequently Asked Questions
Answers about choosing a service, packages and pricing, booking details, provider qualifications, order progress, and joining CareHome.
Booking & Service
8How do I book a service?
Open CareHome online or in the app. Choose a category, select the standard service and package you need, complete the required options such as property details, service address, preferred time and photos, then review the scope and price before submitting your order. You can follow the order's progress after submission.
What information should I prepare before booking?
Depending on the service, you may need the property type and floor area, building access or permit details, parking information, preferred date and time, on-site contact, safety notes, and photos or videos of the area, appliance, model label, or fault.
How is the service price calculated?
CareHome supports fixed, per-unit, per-area, inspection, and quotation pricing. Fixed-scope orders show the package price and selected add-ons before confirmation. Repair or complex work may start with an inspection fee, followed by a separate labor, materials, or parts quotation for your approval.
How do I know what a package includes?
Each package should show its service scope, exclusions, required options, available add-ons, and whether materials are included. Review these details before confirming so the expected work is clear to both you and the provider.
How are providers and in-home workers checked?
A provider must satisfy the business qualifications required for the service. In-home workers require NBI Clearance plus the relevant TESDA, PRC, or FPA credential for the work they perform. A service cannot be assigned when required qualifications are missing, expired, revoked, or unapproved.
How can I track an order or contact the provider?
Open the order details in CareHome to review its current fulfillment status, including acceptance, arrival, service in progress, and completion. You can contact the provider from the Message button at the bottom of the service detail page, or open the ⋯ menu in the top-right corner of the order details and select Contact provider.
What should I do if there is a service problem?
If a problem occurs during or after service, open Chats in the CareHome app or online service site and message Customer support directly. You can also open the ⋯ menu in the top-right corner of the order details and select Customer support. Share the order number and any relevant photos or videos so support can review the fulfillment record and coordinate the next step.
Where is CareHome available and which services can I book?
CareHome currently serves Metro Manila / NCR with seven categories and 14 standard services: cleaning, aircon, plumbing and drain, appliance repair, electrical services, general household pest control, and laundry. The app and online service show the services available for your location and preferred time.
Provider Onboarding & Operations
5How do I apply to join CareHome?
Submit the form on the Partner page with your contact details, service types, coverage area, availability, and a short introduction. The onboarding team will review the application and contact you about the next qualification and setup steps.
Which business documents are required?
Providers offering these services require SEC or DTI Business Registration, a Business or Mayor's Permit, BIR Certificate of Registration (Form 2303), and DOLE Department Order No. 174 Registration. Pest-control providers also require an FPA License to Operate; laundry providers require a current Sanitary Permit for Public Laundry.
Which qualifications do service workers need?
All assigned workers require NBI Clearance. They also need the service-specific credential: the relevant TESDA certificate for cleaning, aircon, plumbing, appliance, or laundry work; a PRC Registered Master Electrician License for electrical work; or FPA applicator accreditation for pest control.
How do providers manage services and orders?
The provider workspace supports service listing, price and schedule maintenance, order acceptance, fulfillment status, reconciliation, and operating data. Assigned workers use the worker app for task flow, arrival check-in, service records, completion confirmation, and exception reporting.
How does CareHome evaluate provider performance?
CareHome reviews provider performance using fulfillment records, punctuality, customer feedback, complaint handling, qualifications, training records, and completion quality. These signals support service-quality management and ongoing provider cooperation.
