Home Repair and Maintenance
A home, though it’s simply defined as a shelter of residence, has evolved greatly from being just that. Modern homes today are pretty much complex systems that have various parts inside that keep the home in order. Plumbing systems, electrical systems, electronics, furniture restoration; these are some of the services that home owners look for. Despite the proliferation of DIY help, especially in sites such as Wikihow, there are still some things that you rather make the pros do. BigBenta recognizes the need for professionals in home repair and maintenance, and so, there are a lot of Service Providers that can help keep your home at tip-top shape!
Plumbing and Drainage (Tubero)
Plumbers are very important in today’s world. They are often tasked to the form of maintain, fix, or replace drainage, sewage, or plumbing pipes, jobs which require special training to do. Plumbers which opt to service houses, known as residential plumbers, are tasked to ensure that the plumbing system in a house is working okay. As clogged toilets or broken pipes leading to leaks are common at homes, residential plumbers are highly sought after! Though plumbers don’t need licenses to carry out their job, there are various vocational schools all over that do offer workshops for plumbers to improve themselves.
Plumbers at BigBenta: Myla Malabanan, Eric Cruz, Rico Ubaldo
Electrical/Lighting
Just like plumbers, electricians specialize in fixing another important part of a modern day home: Electrical Wiring! Electricians ensure that the wiring in buildings, or those that go into machines, are working properly. Service Electricians, who service houses, are also responsible for fixing electrical meters that are located beside each house, and repairing/installing light fixtures. In contrast to plumbers, electricians are often trained for a longer time, and are subject to stricter regulations, due to the various hazards that their jobs contain. Electricians in the Philippines require training, and need to show proper knowledge of the Philippine Electrical Code to become licensed electricians.

Health and Beauty
“Health is Wealth”. This is a timeless statement that is familiar with most. Though today’s technological advancements give people better healthcare and more opportunities to eat and drink healthy, the stresses of a modern society can also be seen on some. It’s a well-known fact that suicide, depression, anxiety, may happen to anyone, regardless of where he/she is living. In fact, list25.com’s 25 Countries with the Highest Suicide Rates in the World shows that though a lot of the countries in the list are poor ones in Africa, some of them are highly developed nations like South Korea, Japan, Poland and Ukraine. This is why many believe that having a healthy state of mind is really key to be happy. Eating and exercising regularly, not letting peer pressure or family pressure get to you, avoiding conflict, and finding something to do that makes you happy are some of the ways that people stave off boredom and the subsequent mental ills that go along with it. At BigBenta, we care about your happiness, so we have decided to approach some service providers that are capable of making you feel much better!
Hair Stylists
Hairstylists, or hairdressers, are people who style or cut hair as a living. They can style hair depending on what customers want, and they use various techniques to achieve a great look. Having been popular since the 17th century, this profession actually originated around France, and a lot of the hairstyles that were popular then were conceptualized there. With the advent of electricity in the early 1900s hairdressers started using tools like hair dryers to lengthen the lifetime of the styled hair, and it further became popular, and hairstyles started changing at a much faster rate since then. Though it’s a profession that people believe are most suited for women, some of the best hairstylists back then and even today are men! Being a relatively safe job, as well as one that doesn’t have much requirements, it is one of the fastest growing professions available today!

Health Care
Though living healthy and staying mentally sane helps in keeping a youthful look, not everyone is blessed with good health for the rest of their lives. Eventually, due to a disability or a crippling illness, some people are incapable of taking care of themselves. That’s where caregivers come in! Caregivers are defined as “unpaid or paid person who helps another individual with an impairment with his or her daily activities”. Simply put, anyone who takes care of an impaired, disabled, or elderly person, regardless of physical differences, is a caregiver. In today’s world where life expectancies are getting longer and longer, and seemingly more and more people are born with physical/mental defects, caregiving activities are very essential, and are done for many reasons. However, whatever reason caregivers may have for caring for someone else, it does give a society a huge favor, as the cost of putting all these disabled, impaired, or elderly people in the care of health or mental institutions would be crippling. Caregiving is another popular profession today due to its simplicity, lack of hazardous tasks, and social benefits.

Body (Masahista)
An act of applying force on the body. Commonly done with machines, hands, and even feet, massages are known as a treatment for stress or pain. Having been done by various ancient civilizations like the Chinese, Indians, Japanese, Koreans, Egyptians, Romans, Greeks, and Mesopotamians, they have each developed their own way of massaging the body, and a lot of these ways are still being used today. Some of the common types of massages being done today are Acupressure (Acupuncture without the needles), Shiatsu (medical benefits), Foot Massage (stimulation of certain points on the feet), Swedish Massage (Most popular), Thai Massage (Ancient style), and Traditional Chinese Massage (Which involves pressing on sensitive points and pushing, stretching, and kneading muscles)

Lessons and Tutorial
Not everyone learns at the same pace, and it can be attributed to different reasons. Interest on the subject, concentration of the individual, physical/mental differences, are just some of the reasons that can affect the learning rate of an individual. However, just because slow learners are slow learners, doesn’t mean that they are dumb or stupid. History has proven itself time and time again that even slow learners have the potential to be great. At the same time however, if you do have a kid that is slow at learning, or one that is particularly interested in learning something new like dancing, playing basketball or even swimming, then help make them desire to achieve by getting a tutor. Here are the tutorials that we offer:
Music Lessons
Music is the one thing that brings us together. It has a universal feeling, and it’s evident when you see people trying to sing the lyrics of songs that they don’t know. It’s because of this that a lot of people are inspired to learn how to sing or dance better, or maybe even learn an instrument. However, learning how to play an instrument or sing, and learning how to play it properly is a whole different story. Knowing how to sing and/or play an instrument using proper techniques and habits can make it easier to play (thus minimizing injuries), so it’s best to ask for help from tutors/ coaches that have knowledge of proper playing techniques!

Academic and Language Tutorials
As much as having a good body and maintaining good looks is important, making sure that you also have adequate knowledge in your brain is equally important in maintaining a balanced life. Some of the most respected people today are those that have a commanding presence and have the words/knowledge to back it up, so wouldn’t you want your colleagues to respect you? By being confident and knowledgeable in almost everything you do, whether it’s presenting a proposal to your boss or giving out orders to your subordinates, you’ll definitely make a good impression with a lot of people, and the benefits of that can translate to a pay raise or even a promotion! So if you want to be the ultimate alpha worker in the office, make sure that your rudimentary speaking skills/ math skills are on point. But of course, it’s not only adults that need tutorial classes. If your kids seem to find a hard time understanding lessons at school, remember that not everyone learns at the same pace, so make sure to get a tutor to help your child learn his lessons, and probably even become inspired to love the subject itself! The tutors at BigBenta are knowledgeable, and would be able to help a child struggling in his classes, as much as a teenager studying for his Entrance Test.

Events
Salago Salad on the Go Events and Catering is one of BigBenta’s service providers that you can book for your parties and events.
Simply defined as a social gathering, that definition is as simple as an event gets. If you were to take out the food, entertainment, decorations, and everything else in a party, but the people themselves socializing, it’s still an event, though most people wouldn’t exactly want to attend a party that doesn’t have food and drinks. Since events are often done for a sole purpose, those that are executed well, and are able to satisfy its guests, can also benefit its hosts with an increased reputation; that’s the reasons why a lot of big events are sponsored by companies. But in order for an event to be truly successful, it needs to be memorable, and that’s where the problem starts. Every event needs to have its own unique twist to the usual party, and it can be done in many ways, from having performers/bands to make the event even more fun, to having a theme that’s unique. We at BigBenta have a whole load of different people that will help your party out. From Planning to Videography, BigBenta has service providers with the sole aim of giving out their expertise to help you have the ultimate party. Every party needs to be planned well: why not enlist for the help of an event planner to help you out from day one?
