For your listing
Fix the small things before the next booking
Do not let minor repairs hurt your host rating. Fix loose towel rails, sticking doors, or unmounted TVs in the gap between checkout and check-in. Post the job on JobZapp, select a qualified local handyman, and pay securely in-app only after the work is completed.
Book for the gap between checkout and check-in, or for a mid-week slot at a vacant listing.

FAQ
Good to know for hosts
-
Can a handyman work during the turnover window?
Yes, if you post the slot clearly. Many hosts book handyman work on checkout day after the clean, or on a vacant day between bookings. Add access codes and parking notes in the job description.
-
Is this for certified electrical or plumbing work?
No. JobZapp handymen handle general repairs and maintenance. Certified electrical and plumbing work needs a licensed tradesperson.
-
When should I book a turnover?
Book as soon as your reservation lands. Do not wait for checkout morning. JobZapp requires at least 6 hours' lead time for daytime turnovers so local cleaners can apply and you can confirm before the 10:00 AM window.
-
How long is a turnover clean?
Most Cape Town turnovers run four hours, often 10:00 to 14:00 between checkout and the next check-in. You see the full estimate, including the worker rate and booking fee, before you confirm anyone.
-
Can I book the same cleaner again?
Yes. After a good turnover you can post again and book the same worker for your next checkout. Many hosts keep one vetted cleaner on rotation across their listings.
-
Do I need to supply linen or cleaning products?
Most hosts provide their own products and linen. Mention anything unusual, such as a linen cupboard, lockbox code or parking bay, in the job description when you book.
