What Is GeraHome? The On-Demand Home Services Marketplace Explained

By GeraHome Team · Published April 21, 2026 · 5 min read

Quick answer. GeraHome is an on-demand marketplace where households book vetted cleaners, plumbers, electricians, gardeners, handymen, movers, and other home-service professionals. Every provider is identity-verified and credential-checked. Pricing is transparent. Payment flows through the platform so you never hand cash to a stranger. Available in London, Yerevan, Tbilisi, Nairobi, Lagos, and more cities as coverage expands.

What GeraHome Does

  • Service discovery. Search by service type, neighbourhood, availability, and rating.
  • Verified professionals. ID check, right-to-work verification where applicable, trade-credential check for regulated trades, insurance evidence.
  • Transparent pricing. Per-visit or per-job prices shown before you book; no surprise fees.
  • Platform payment. Card, GeraCash, or local rails; provider is paid once the job is complete.
  • Ratings and reviews. Post-job reviews drive quality; poor providers are off-boarded.

Services Covered

Cleaning (regular, deep, end-of-tenancy), plumbing (standard and emergency), electrical work, gas safety checks, handyman tasks, carpentry, painting and decorating, gardening, moving and house clearance, pest control, appliance repair, and more. Category availability varies by city.

Who It Is For

Renters and homeowners who do not want to rely on unverified cash-in-hand arrangements or get stuck in the call-around-the-neighbourhood loop to find someone reliable. Busy professionals who value the platform accountability. Landlords coordinating maintenance on tenanted properties (works well with GeraRent).

Coverage

London and major UK cities, Yerevan and Gyumri in Armenia, Tbilisi and Batumi in Georgia, Nairobi in Kenya, Lagos and Abuja in Nigeria, with more cities added as partner density reaches viability. The app shows only the services available in your postcode.

What It Costs

Browsing is free. You pay per job at the price shown before booking. GeraHome takes a transparent commission from the provider — this is how the platform is funded and why professionals accept platform accountability. No subscription required for households; optional membership tiers unlock priority booking and discounted rates for heavy users.

Ecosystem Integration

Pay from GeraCash, earn GeraCoins on every booking, and combine with other Gera products — for example, a family member in London can book and pay for a cleaner at an Armenian relative's flat in Yerevan without ever handling local currency themselves.
