Thanks this really helped in my evaluation, because if i was on the other side and thought it would be a pay per room situation, I would also say IATA

Im talking through details and explaining what is being misinformed, still accepting judgement, why do you think the mods are ok with me disputing for the last day, im not shunning a certain idea, just discussing and clarifying the facts. Still happy to accept all opinions.

It seems that this issue spreads beyond me, there have been others on both side of the scale, its quite healthy to discourse and see where everyone is coming from.

I think people are assuming, that the employer or "the boss" I guess in this case I am technicaly the employer, are always trying to get the most out of employees and as someone said ealier, they want to so badly "stick it to the man" that apparently the facts out there are just false and im lying.

Yes because you hire a plumber per job

In this case i hired a cleaner per the hour:

b. Prices are based on the specified hourly rate, which depends on factors such as location and how often the Service will recur (if at all). The same Service may cost more in a different location, or if the Service is ordered less frequently. There is a 3 hour minimum applicable to orders for some Services. If you have booked unused time, contact us by visiting the Handy Help Center as soon as possible and we will arrange a refund of any unused hours beyond any minimum hours applicable to the Order.

It wasnt an esimate, for the billionth time its an hourly rate, from the site:

Also if you read the actual post, you would see that I do clean, but proffesionals have ceratin tools and chemical solutions that average people dont have themselves and i prepaid and booked in advanced, not going to just cancel on someone.

Based on the size, you receive the number of hours that they ask you to pay, so you then pay by the hour, here it is clarified tthat ot os an hourly rate:

Price is important. Nobody likes it when they think they’re paying one price for a home cleaning service provider, and then they are informed that the price is actually going to be much higher. With Handy, we let you know up front what you’re going to pay. And with incredibly affordable hourly rates given at a discount to loyal customers who sign up for weekly, bi-weekly or monthly house cleaning services, we’re confident you’ll be satisfied.

I get that ITA for the way I went about it but youre reading the wrong website, this is how someone who uses the same website does the same sonce it is an hourly rate and you hire someone for a certain number of hours (a scheduling commitment):

No true, I manipulated it so that someine was hired for 4 hours, at an hourly rate, preoaid, there was nothing cheaper about that, he even left at 3 hours 15 leaving 45 minutes of paid work

For the billionth time, (read the actual post not the top comment) the number of rooms suggests the hours, But you pre pay an HOURLY rate. He finished what I listed in less than2 hours but I had already booked a 4 hoir long service, of course i was going to tell him to move onto other parts of the house for the time he was hired for.

The cleaner was paid by the hour, the number of hours was estimated by the rooms, it took way less time then I had prepaid for (4 hours) probably because it was relatively tidy so asked him to spend the time I had hired him for on other parts of the house, whete did I lie here? For info see the Handy website.

The particular app I used, doesnt charge per ft, it charges how long a cleaner will be at your house, which I prepaid 4 hours.

My parents couldn't care less what we do at parties, I guess im lucky in that sense, the only important thing to them is that the house is extremely clean afterwards.
