Zoofy reviews: book a fixed price or compare quotes?
Sources checked on 11 August 2026
Zoofy works differently from most home improvement platforms: you book a tradesperson at a price you see up front and pick a time slot, instead of comparing quotes. Handy on a clear cut job. On a large or unclear job comparing usually pays off more, and that is what JouwPro is built for.
How does Zoofy work?
Zoofy calls it an e-commerce model itself: you pick a job, you see the price, you pick a time, and a screened tradesperson comes round. There is no quoting process and no leads are sold.
Not everything is a fixed price. For some jobs Zoofy charges an hourly rate, and for larger jobs there is a separate quotation service. Zoofy publishes indicative prices per job type in its own price guides.
On top of the job price Zoofy charges a service fee per job. There is a paid Premium subscription for customers that removes that service fee, and an optional warranty package. The current amounts are on Zoofy's own pages. We do not copy them here, because they change and then our page would be wrong.
What does that mean for you as a customer?
On a job whose size is clear, such as replacing a tap or fitting a lock, a fixed price is convenient. You know what you pay and you do not wait for replies.
On a job where the price really varies, it is a drawback. A roof, a bathroom or a garden costs thousands more with one tradesperson than with another, and you only see that difference when you put several prices side by side.
Our take: if your job is small and clear, booking a fixed price is fine. If it is something big, have several tradespeople look at it. It costs you a few days and more often than not it pays off.
What does it mean for a tradesperson?
Zoofy does not sell leads, and that is a real difference from Werkspot, Homedeal and Trustoo. You do not pay up front for a chance.
The money is in the commission. Zoofy's own terms for tradespeople state that it may withhold at least 15 percent of the invoiced amount as a brokerage fee. Note the words at least.
Payouts are weekly, but under Zoofy's own terms payments are held for at least 29 days so a customer can still complain. If you want your money sooner, there is a paid service for that.
What JouwPro does differently
Here the tradesperson names their own price and you pick. Replying costs the tradesperson nothing. We charge a 15 percent service fee on the agreed amount excluding VAT, capped at 500 euro per job, and only on a job that comes together through JouwPro and is completed.
If the payment runs through JouwPro, the money is held until you approve the job. Then we pay the tradesperson out.
We charge customers no service fee. Posting and receiving replies cost nothing.

Where JouwPro still falls short
JouwPro started in 2026 and there are not dozens of our own jobs on the site every day yet. If you want to see as many requests as possible today, the big platforms have more. What we put against that: looking and replying cost nothing, so you can run us alongside your current platform at no cost.
Want to see for yourself?
Posting a job costs nothing and so does replying to one. You are not tied to anything.
Frequently asked questions
Is Zoofy more expensive than comparing quotes?
It depends on the job. On a small, clear job the difference is small and you save time. On a big job quotes vary widely, and comparing is usually cheaper. Zoofy also charges a service fee per job on top of the job price.
Does Zoofy charge tradespeople lead fees?
No. Zoofy does not sell leads. Its own terms for tradespeople state that Zoofy may withhold at least 15 percent commission on the invoiced amount.
What does JouwPro withhold on a job?
15 percent of the agreed amount, excluding VAT, capped at 500 euro per job. Only on jobs that come together through JouwPro and are completed.
Do I pay a service fee as a customer on JouwPro?
No. Posting a job and receiving replies cost nothing, and nothing is added on top of the price you agree with the tradesperson.
How fast do I get replies on JouwPro?
That varies and we promise no deadline. JouwPro started in 2026 and does not have the traffic of the big platforms yet. Posting costs nothing and ties you to nothing, so trying it only costs you a bit of time.
