A small repair or major works in Douala: two ways to go
🛠️ A repair or small job: a request
Describe the problem (at least 8 words), add up to 2 photos and confirm you will pay the technician's callout fee (2,000 to 5,000 FCFA depending on the trade). The request goes to the verified technicians of that trade in your city; you are notified as soon as one of them accepts it, and you contact them by phone or WhatsApp. Want someone to keep an eye on it? In supervised mode, a JeFala1Tech supervisor follows the job and you receive a PDF report.
🏗️ Building or renovating: a project
A JeFala1Tech site manager comes to assess the work (expert visit), then gives you a detailed quote per trade, labour and materials, which you accept with your PIN code. They choose and coordinate the tradespeople, you pay in whenever you like (Mobile Money, deposit or bank transfer) and JeFala1Tech pays the tradespeople. You follow progress with photos in the app, right up to the handover report.
