Description of Services

Smart City Care provides a comprehensive platform that facilitates the seamless booking of various home services, catering to the diverse needs of homeowners. Our platform offers a user-friendly interface where individuals can conveniently request services such as AC repairing, refrigerator repairing, pest control, home cleaning, carpenter services and electrical appliance repairs.

Each service is carefully curated to ensure that users have access to reliable and experienced professionals who specialise in their respective fields. We understand the importance of maintaining a comfortable and functional living environment, which is why we have partnered with a network of independent third-party service providers, also known as "Service Professionals."

Booking and Confirmation

Booking a service through the Smart City Care platform is a straightforward process designed to provide maximum convenience to our users. Upon selecting the desired service, users can specify their requirements and preferred appointment time. Our platform then matches the request with available Service Professionals in the user's vicinity.

Before confirming a booking, users have the opportunity to review the details and availability of the selected Service Professional. Once both parties agree on the terms, the booking is confirmed. It's important to note that bookings are subject to confirmation based on the availability of Service Professionals. However, users can rest assured that bookings canceled before confirmation will not incur any charges, in accordance with our cancellation policy.

User Responsibilities

Smart City Care prioritises transparency and communication with our users. To ensure a smooth and hassle-free service experience, we encourage users to provide accurate information when booking services. This includes details such as their contact information and any specific requirements or preferences they may have.

Additionally, users are responsible for being available at the scheduled time for service provision. This helps to avoid any unnecessary delays or disruptions and allows Service Professionals to efficiently carry out their tasks.

Service Provision

We strive to connect users with highly skilled and experienced Service Professionals who possess the expertise to address their specific needs effectively.

However, in the rare event of any issues or concerns arising during the service provision, users can reach out to our customer support team for assistance and resolution.
