HelpMee allows consumers who have an emergency with their home to request submissions from various specialists. Locksmiths, disaster specialists, plumbers, roofers and others can set up an account to receive and respond to requests published there.
HelpMee.ca connects reliable experts for free (disaster cleanup, roofing, plumbing, electrical, appliances, etc.) with people looking for a quick response. A website to quickly add to your favorites.
On HelpMee, the process is fully automated by algorithms that send requests from customers to targeted contractors, resulting in a significant reduction in time to connect people who initially do not know each other. The faster the contact is established, the faster the repair will be done.
For several years, Guillaume Eckerl managed his business while being an employee. Until the day he set up a new business project by creating HelpMee.ca, a platform that allows consumers to quickly find a repairer.
And then among those who answer your request- usually in under 30 minutes - you can pick what you need. Then you get a notification from who's available and their estimated costs.
All companies recommended by HelpMee are reliable and trustworthy. One less reason to stress!
Individuals (tenants and owners) but also businesses are the target audience of this free platform which is very useful for those who have just settled on the island. "Newcomers and single people really need our service, we realize it," said Guillaume
This free service connects Quebeckers with contractors who are available and certified in plumbing, electrical, roofing, locksmithing, appliance repair, post-disaster cleaning and heating and air-conditioning. HelpMee.ca is the only site in Quebec that focuses on urgent property repairs. It distinguishes itself by the proximity, the availability and the speed of intervention of the companies registered on its platform.
We look forward to seeing the future for this new Montreal company. Let's hope for a huge number of requesters and excellent entrepreneurs to allow this great idea to take its place in the Quebec construction market that needs a little techno boost!
The service, which is free, connects users with available and certified contractors in plumbing, electrical, roofing, locksmithing, appliance repair, post-disaster cleaning and heating and cooling.
