Frequently Asked Questions

What is HOCOA?
HOCOA is an association designed to eliminate the stress and worry of home repairs and renovations for the homeowner. Members make one call, anytime day or night, for all their home repair, maintenance and service needs.

Why should I join HOCOA?
As a homeowner you’ve no doubt experienced this frustration:

Something in your home breaks – maybe a pipe bursts or your furnace stops working. You open the yellow pages and begin calling plumbers or heating contractors and you get one recorded message after another. You leave your name on five or six answering machines and then you wait. Eventually someone calls you back and tells you they can come out next Thursday and would you like to make an appointment. You can’t wait that long so you go back to the yellow pages and start over. At last you get someone to come out the day after tomorrow for an appointment window between 11am and 3pm. You schedule another day off from work. The contractor shows up at 4:45pm. They do the repair but inform you that what you really need is a new furnace or other major renovation.

You begin to consider that all you really know about this contractor is that they have an ad in the yellow pages. What you don’t know -
• Do they have a current state license?
• Are they insured?
• Do they have the experience and skills to do the job?
• Will they charge you a fair price for their work?
• Do they guarantee their work?
With HOCOA all these questions are answered. All of our contractors have the appropriate licenses and insurance. We personally interview and reference check each of our contractors with regard to experience, quality of work and price. We ensure your complete satisfaction with a follow up call after the work is completed.
