The billing makes sense but, can you provide any detail about why scheduling is important to you? Is this really an ad-hoc service for you?

In my experience with HomeJoy and Exec (now HandyBook), they understand the value of recurring revenue and are actively pushing for customers to have regular service. For this kind of service, I would think that would be very normal.

I do use recurring service with Homejoy, every two weeks.

Scheduling is basically on autopilot, unless there's the odd case of my cleaner cannot come (weather, sickness, other stuff), or my cleaning date falls on a holiday. Being able to have Homejoy handle all the details of adjusting appointments (since they know my desired cleaner's full availability) is nice.

That sounds like the way all traditionally "scheduled" services work. That's what makes me wonder about this model. A scheduled service is just not the same a ride.
