What you can get done

One app for the whole to-do list.

Whatever needs doing around the house, post it and let local pros compete for it.

Not licensed trades. For electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roofing, gas, structural work, hire a licensed contractor — those aren't offered on doBid.

Why homeowners pick doBid

Trust isn't a tagline. It's how the app works.

  • Your address stays private

    Pros only see your zip code while bidding. Your full address is shared just with the pro you hire — not the others.

  • Held safely by Stripe

    Your payment is held in escrow by Stripe — not by doBid — until you review the work and release it. If something isn't right, open a dispute.

  • Real reviews from neighbors

    Reviews are tied to completed jobs only — no fake stars, no paid endorsements, no surprises.

How it works

From post to paid in three steps.

  1. Post your job

    Tell us what you need done. Photos, location, ideal timing — takes about 2 minutes.

  2. Compare bids

    Local pros bid on your job. See ratings, reviews, and ask questions before deciding.

  3. Hire & pay safely

    Pick your pro, fund escrow, and release payment when the work is done right.

Common questions

Questions Houston homeowners ask.

How does doBid work?

You post your job free with photos and a description, and local Houston-area pros submit fixed-price bids. You compare bids, reviews, and profiles side by side, hire the pro you want, and your payment is held in escrow until the work is done and you release it.

Is doBid free for homeowners?

Yes — posting a job and receiving bids is completely free. You only pay the bid price of the pro you hire, and no payment is released until you confirm the work is done.

How does doBid keep my payment safe?

Your payment goes into escrow through Stripe when you accept a bid — doBid never holds it, and the pro can't touch it until you review the finished work and release it. You get a 72-hour review window after the job is marked complete, and a dispute process with photo evidence if something isn't right.

What services can I book on doBid?

Non-license-required home services across the Houston metro: junk removal, house cleaning, painting, landscaping and yard care, handyman work, moving help, pressure washing, gutter cleaning, TV mounting, furniture assembly, and fence & deck repair. Licensed trades — electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roofing — aren't offered on doBid.

What areas does doBid serve?

The greater Houston, Texas metro — including Houston, Katy, Sugar Land, Pearland, Cypress, Spring, Conroe, and The Woodlands.

How does doBid vet its pros?

Every pro must connect a verified Stripe payout account before they can bid, reviews come only from completed jobs on the platform, and all messages are screened by AI moderation. Your street address stays private until you hire — bidding pros only see your zip code.
