Travel and other costs agreed in advance
These are the prices payable by the customer. JAE Services is not registered for VAT, so VAT is not added. Standard rates for property maintenance and installations apply Monday–Friday, 07:00–21:00, excluding public holidays, without a separate weekday evening supplement. These working hours and supplements do not apply to cleaning services. Materials, working-hour supplements, machinery and longer journeys are specified before work starts.
See the full prices, travel zones and working-hour supplements.
Finnish tax credit for household expenses
Some work carried out at your home or holiday home may qualify for the household tax credit. Eligibility depends on the work and the Finnish Tax Administration’s current conditions. Labour is itemised on the invoice; materials and travel costs do not qualify. Check the work’s eligibility and the provider’s prepayment register status before ordering.
