How to Choose the Right Home Service Provider

Looking for someone to clean your home, fix something, or help with a renovation? It can be tough to know who to trust. There are so many service providers out there, and not all of them live up to what they promise.

That’s exactly why we created viviqi.

We’ve already done the research, checked the reviews, and built strong partnerships with some of the best local service providers in Vancouver, Burnaby, and Richmond. So instead of spending hours searching, comparing, and second-guessing, you can skip the stress and come straight to us.

Still wondering how to pick the right provider on your own? Here are a few tips we’ve always relied on—and the same ones we used when choosing trusted partners to join our service network at viviqi.

Be Clear About What You Need

• Are you looking for help with a full renovation or just someone to assemble your IKEA furniture? The more specific you are, the easier it is to find the right person for the job.

Read Real Reviews

• Don’t just look at the star rating. Read what people are actually saying. Were they happy with the service? Was the work done on time and within budget?

Ask Questions

• Good providers are happy to explain how they work, what’s included, and how long it’ll take. If someone is vague or dismissive, that’s usually a red flag.

Support Local (and Licensed)

• Hiring local means quicker responses and a better understanding of your area. And if licensing or insurance is required, make sure they’ve got it. It protects both of you.

Don’t Let Price Be the Only Factor

• We all love a good deal, but the cheapest option isn’t always the best. Look at what you’re really getting for the price—professionalism, experience, and peace of mind are worth paying a little extra for.

Go With Your Gut

• Sometimes, your instinct tells you everything you need to know. If you feel confident and comfortable after speaking with a provider, that’s a good sign.

The bottom line?

At viviqi, we’ve already gone through this entire process. We’ve found the cleaners, builders, installers, and handymen we’d trust in our own homes—so you don’t have to figure it out alone.

No stress. No guessing. Just quality service that shows up on time and gets the job done right.
