I had a couple small jobs to have done and Fixer was able to do one of the two jobs. Fixer was very responsive to my request for some one to do the jobs and it was easy to communicate with them. They had someone at my house the next day first thing in the morning. They were able to explain the issue and complete the job the fixer was able to complete. Would definitely recommend to people that are not that handy and need some help with repairs. read more

I originally went to Angies List to find an electrician for my South Loop townhouse. After submitting information about the scope of work (GFCIs and ceiling fan), several options came through including Fixer.com offering their services. Fixer.com was 1 of a few with an "A" rating so I clicked thru to their website. I found their website easy to navigate and was happily surprised to see online web chat. After confirming that they could help me via chat, I was super happy to use the easy scheduling features and get a Saturday appointment. I wish all service companies were this easy to schedule! Prior to the service call, I liked the collaborative experience including sharing a photo of the issue(s) and receiving an estimate upfront. Fixer.com also heavily uses SMS/Texting to communicate before, during and after the service call. I liked that they support credit card payment, email invoicing and a casual follow-up to make sure everything went well. If you are looking for a handyman service (including electrical) company, Fixer.com is worth your consideration! read more

Issue with fixer is that schedulers and concierge have no idea how long tasks take. My fixer scheduled for 3:30 came at 7:00. They cannot actually give you an accurate time. Unfortunately the problem with smoke detector was not fixed. Simple issue of battery replacement was too high to reach. He left and one hour later beeping started again. Disappointing experience. So after $94, I have to hire an actual electrician. read more

They were able to fix and mount TVs. I had selected them specifically because I also wanted to google doorbell nest installed. We're unable to do that. I would not advise them for any type of smart home installation. I'm gonna have to call somebody else now. read more

Fixer was another great experience. I needed my door aligned for my locks to work properly. Job was done quickly and thoroughly my fixer even volunteered to clean up after the job was done. Can't get better than that! read more

Highly recommend for a variety of tasks! We've used Fixer for pluming and thermostat help and have been very pleased! They are the go-to solution for small jobs but bigger than DIY. Edgar was our fixer this morning and was great! read more

I needed a toilet replaced in my brand new house due to size. I bought a new 1. I just needed it changed out. The guy they sent took over 3hrs! & charged me for going shopping for materials when everything was provided in the box. Over $300!!! Ridiculous!!! Don't use them! They Rip off people! read more

Made an appointment with Fixers last week to come out today. My appointment was at 2pm. The night before I heard nothing so I reached out to Jayme to find out how the process goes. I didn't know I needed to provide a cell phone number for a confirmation/follow-up(It would've been nice to know this upon scheduling appointment but okay). After setting up an account and entering my payment information, all was set. Today I waited for an hour for someone to show up. I didn't get a text, or call saying what happened. At 3pm I alerted Fixer that no one had shown up and that I was cancelling the appointment. I was no longer interested in the service and wanted my debit card information deleted. At 3:15pm I get a cell message from someone from fixer saying he was at my front door. At this point I am no longer at home and family had to tell him that the appointment was cancelled and that he was suppose to be here at 2pm. The Fixer guy said, "oh okay" then proceeded to stand on my porch/grass for the next 30-40mins. After noticing he was just there hanging out my sister asked him, "if there was a problem"? He said, "His phone was dying and he needed to call his ride to come back and get him" What? your ride? So you just gonna hang out on my lawn? Hire at your own risk kids! This was a wasted day off work and, this is not how I do business! Do better Jayme!!!! read more

This was my 3rd time using fixer and they have yet to let me down! They are always on time, professional, efficient, and customer friendly. I love that instead of stressing out over projects, I can just call fixer and they get the job done with excellent quality and a fair price. Probably my new favorite business! read more

I used the Fixer Service for the second time today. The first time I was so happy with my experience that I immediately contacted them after receiving a quote of $500 from another contractor to repair my sink. The Fixers did the exact same thing the contractor said he was going to do in less time for less money. I paid $120 for about 90 minutes. The contractor made it sound like it would be an all day project to scrape the adhesive off my sink and reattach it into place. The Fixers not only cleaned up the adhesive and reattached it to the granite they also secured it in place with anchors. I highly recommend checking with them for any repairs you need! read more

A great company to use for small jobs! They are reasonable and professional. The quality of work is outstanding! Thanks Jennifer for fixing our garden pipe! read more

Our experience with Fixer was great. Carlos came by to help us install a new smoke/carbon monoxide detector, and he was friendly, knowledgeable and very efficient. I happily recommend Fixer for your repair needs! read more

The under mount kitchen sink had several brackets missing and it dropped down and left a gap where water could spill over. They diagnosed the issue and gave me an estimate for service. They fixed the sink as they described and in the estimated time. We will definitely use Fixer again! read more

Great Handyman experience today with Joe. As with any service, it's always going to come down to the person or crew that shows up to do the job. In this case- Excellent! read more

The Fixer folks are fabulous! Last fall they worked on my tub faucet leak. It was a tough job. Recently, the leak came back. Today Steven S. did an amazing job and solved the problem. Best of all, I was not charged. That, my friends, is how you treat your customers. Thanks, Fixer and thanks, Steven! You all are the best! read more

The correspondence between company and customer was excellent. However, the appointment was cancelled by the company 2 hours before service time. PTO was processed and taken for this particular service, making this disruption massive and unprofessional. Would not be able to be a judge of quality of service, but reliability is a major problem. read more

The fixers I had were on time, polite & did good work.

This used to be a good honest company. Now they have no clue of what the customer needs and just send people out who either can't do the work or it's beyond their ability. Stay away and work with a real electrician or plumber. Fixer is no better than a high school kid I can hire for sheer labor. read more

Garbage. Made appointment, technician didn't show. They pushed the time back 3 hours and the technician didn't show. I had to contact customer service to cancel the appointment. No outreach, no explanation, nothing. Do not use. read more

Well unfortunately, I started the process for my tenants and picked a day that worked for all and got notification at noon for a 5 pm appt that they weren't going to make it. So, I had them reach out to my tenants directly and figure out another day and time, which happened to be the next day at 6 pm. On the rescheduled day, they didn't notify us until we reached out and asked if they were coming, to which we were notified that due to a previous appt running over, they weren't able to make it and would have to reschedule... earliest being a Saturday. So, unfortunately, not the guys i'll be reaching out to again. read more

Fixer is pretty easy to use. They did the work to satisfaction and on time. We'll probably use them again.

Rescheduled multiple times. Showed up and pretty much just guessed what might be wrong without really a conclusive answer. Would not recommend for electrical. Definitely not worth a $120 for somebody walking through all the steps I had already done. Save your money for professionals. read more

Not at all recommended .I needed to fix my door but they said it's fault in frame but it was not it was just the matter of twisting hinges and door will not sag .He finished in 30 minutes and fixer charged for 1hr ridiculous price more than $100 .The tool to get hinges in correct place in Amazon Is $25 . read more

Hired these guys to fix some things before we listed our condo for sale. Love how they send you pictures and minute updates through the work. Very professional, well priced. Would definitely use them again and recommend them too! read more

Professional service, fast turnaround, would highly recommend. I used Fixer when I needed help drilling some holes through some stubborn walls. I was able to schedule someone to stop by within 1 hour of my downloading the app. The serviceman Brian was professional, courteous and quick. read more

I highly recommend the Fixers! Great quality work & very efficient.

Fixer is awesome! They sent Katie, a very knowledgable and friendly handy person who could do any job I threw at her, and she got to my house within an hour of my text to Fixer. I initially called because a pipe in our basement was leaking, AFTER different plumber had been here the week before. Katie came to measure, then went to the store to get the appropriate replacement pipe. She came right back and got to work. It's two weeks later now, and it's still as good as new. She asked if I needed anything else done, and I ticked off a list of things we just hadn't gotten around to doing ourselves. Something was wrong with our gutters, they were overflowing when it rained and causing a big puddle in the corner next to our house. So she cleaned them out and found they were badly clogged. It was a really dirty job. Then she fixed an old doorknob (original to the house) that we couldn't figure out. I mentioned we had a rip in a screen and she had some replacement screen in her car, so she fixed that too! Lastly, she painted some woodwork that needed a fresh coat. I was so happy with everything Katie did. She was clearly very capable and fast, cleaned up really well in the areas she had been working, and everything she fixed is perfect. I could have kept here her all week! I will definitely be calling again. read more

Quick and responsive with a wide range of skills. Helped with hanging large items, fixing a broken window, and leveling a wobbly toilet.

8/2021 They took care of installing something for us and painting afterwards. They did a nice job and it looks great. On time and professional. Nice job everyone! read more

Friendly service. Kept us informed on arrival time. My tenant was happy. Scheduling and payment with Fixer was easy and they responded quickly when I had questions read more

I contacted Fixer about a quote for flipping my master bathroom door (I didn't like the direction it opened, wanted it to open the opposite way). They quoted me WAAAY lower than Fix It People did, and since Fixer generally had good reviews, I went with Fixer. They were great with communication. Carlos R. was my handyman, and he even called me to let me know he was running a little late due to finding parking. When he arrived he was super polite, and put covers over his shoes. He asked me specific questions about how I wanted my door flipped so he would get the job right. I really appreciated that. He did great work, just focused and got the work done in a reasonable amount of time. He cleaned up after himself too. All in all a really great experience for a great price, and I am happy now my door opens the correct way. Thank you so much! :) read more

These guys are amazing. Easy to schedule, responsive to their website even on the weekend, and the two times I had their employees come to my home they were punctual to the minute, professional, friendly, competent, and fast. They prorate to the minute for their work, and they didn't dawdle for moment. They are awesome! read more

Fixer will now be my go-to for handy work! High quality of work, worked quickly, gave helpful advice, accomplished all desired work, and best of all they were on time! read more

Cancelled on me last minute (14 hours notice) with no explanation. I had already declined other estimates and hoped to use them for future projects and odd jobs. Save yourself the time and grief of scheduling your day to accommodate and go with someone else. read more

I've called them a few times for different projects and they always do a great job. The system they use is very convenient and pricing is not bad. read more

I used fixer for the second time today (last time was 8 months ago). They are fantastic! So convenient to schedule (they show you the list of available times) - both times I had same day options. The pricing is very straight forward and totally worth it in my mind. Both handyman were fantastic - very polite and very good at their jobs. D'Angelo finished up quick today and even offered to fix a few more things he noticed in our bathrooms. So thankful! read more

We had a terrible experience with Fixer. A little backstory: we wanted to replace our main door, and we went first with a cheap contractor and he did a bad job with the door being hard to close, the caulking job was bad, and I had to press the bottom of the door with my foot to get it to close all the way. We paid him $200. I decided I had learned my lesson and was going to get an expensive contractor to fix it. Enter Fixer. With the generally good reviews and expensive hourly rate, I had no doubts I would have a seamless door installation. They were quick to respond, and could have someone out quickly as well. When the Fixer (John) got there (he was a little late but for me, that wasn't a problem), we discussed the problem and I let him know that we were willing to do whatever to get it fixed, including starting over and buying another pre-hung door. We just wanted it done right. Over a 40-minute period, he just looked at it (though we didn't get charged for that time, thankfully). I finally went back down and asked if there was a problem and he told me several options. I know little about doors so they sounded reasonable enough. He tried a few things, with no luck (all the while I was reminding him that I was fine getting another door). He would say things like "I guess I could have just taken the caulk out and redone this with all the time this is taking". He also didn't seem to know what a backer rod was, that should have been a real clue for me but I'm pretty trusting. He said he needed to buy a part but didn't trust us to find it (add on a $50 shopping fee and 20% markup here). He came back the next day and finished up and everything seemed better, it wasn't amazing but the caulking was much improved though I wouldn't call it good--he had just scraped it down and the door opened easier since he took out some weather stripping. He did forget to put the trim on the bottom of the door as we discussed, so we reached out about that later and they wanted to charge us for it. Finally they agreed to come fix it but made it seem like a big hassle so I just said I would do it. I decided to wait until after I had someone come to fix drywall right near the door. During that time, the door got worse and worse, the weather stripping started coming off, the door got more and more off-center, and you can see daylight around almost the whole door (with winter here now, there is a freezing breeze coming through the gap, though it's not as bad as entering the produce section at Costco, it still isn't pleasant). There is no way to press the door all the way closed and we can't close our deadbolt all the way anymore. The pictures don't even do it justice--it's terrible! I reached out to Fixer and the lady seemed to agree that it didn't look good and all, she said she would reach out to customer service. I fully expected them to send someone else out to fix it or refund my money (about $350). They came back and offered $25 off a future Fixer appointment and suggested I go with someone else to fix it. I was so disgusted! I have proof that they did a terrible job, and they won't show some integrity and man up. I haven't heard back from them since trying to be more clear about what I expected, but interestingly enough, I had another contractor company reach out to me just the day after they suggested I go with someone else to get the door fixed... Not impressed at all, and I wish I would have left the door the way it was before Fixer came. read more

I hired this company to repair a gypsum board ceiling damaged by a roof leak. The repairman arrived with inadequate materials and tools and was very slow. He took two one hour breaks to "go shopping" for additional materials and I was charged for this time and on the second trip came back empty handed. Work was very sloppy and low quality. I ended up finishing most of the work myself. I paid for materials that were never used and inadequate for the job. And he left a huge mess for me to clean up. I provided a drop cloth and even then he managed to spill most of the mess on the floor. Don't waste you money with this company. read more
