Home Service Marketplaces Send Unvetted Workers With No Refund on Poor Work

Gig marketplaces send newly hired, unvetted contractors to home service jobs and retain payment even when work is incompetent or incomplete. Customers have no recourse because refund policies do not cover cases where the work was attempted but failed. This is a structural trust and quality assurance gap where platform incentives do not align with service quality.

Home Services Platform Allows Repeated Contractor No-Shows on Prepaid Work

Customers who prepay for home installation services through a marketplace experience three consecutive no-shows with no proactive communication from the platform. The marketplace has no enforcement mechanism to penalize contractors who repeatedly cancel, and the customer is left without the installed product indefinitely.
