Needed to have an old utility sink removed and scheduling it with Fixer was simple and the work was done quickly and well by the employee. Already planning on having them come out to do some other things around the office and at home! More...

Two Fixers, Ishmael and Toufit, came in, did a walk through then got to work.  Minor plumbing repairs, little things like adjusting leveler on wire shelving, inserting weather stripping around a/c unit, filling a hole in baseboard.  Their attention to detail made the final results look good and work properly. Big thing was spraying in foam insulation. I had safety concerns about this and there was a snag but the Fixers figured out a workaround that got the job done in an acceptable manner.  Good job on clean up - a real plus.  I've had other Fixers who were not as good.Loss of a star? I made lots of changes from initial scope of work and the various concierges did not keep up very well.  However they  were very understanding about my building's rules for having paperwork on file - we got it done, finally.  Definitely plan to use again.

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! More...

Once again used Fixer. On Thanksgiving my both sinks clogged and there was a small leak. I didn't know if I can even use my dishwasher! I booked Jen for Friday morning. It was more pricey as it was same day booking and Black Friday. Visit was scheduled for 1.5. Jen fixed all in 1h, explained me what was wrong and what a new part I need to buy. As I paid for 1.5h service she also fixed few small things for me in the bathroom - toilet, vent and lightening! Very clean and professional. My guests and I were very happy and could celebrate our thanksgiving weekend! More...

I hesitate to review well as I won't be able to get them due to eventual increase in popularity but they are good.  Fast response for contact. Quality work from experienced handyman.  Big or small all is done well.  Also- they gave workman's comp insurance which is truly necessary to reduce ones exposure to risk. Couldn't be easier.

They did a wonderful job with a custom door installation! They were on time, professional and clean! The price was very reasonable and The door came out perfectly. They are a very thoughtful company too-  I'm pregnant and several weeks after the repair the company even sent us a cute baby tools toy set! We were really touched! Would highly recommend the company and would definitely use them again! More...

This is a good handyman service. Easy to get in touch, easy to schedule. Came right on time, diagnosed the problem (leaking shower) and started working on it right away. My handyman was awesome, and he fixed another issue while he was here. Great service, would recommend. More...

Fixer.com was really great for accomplishing a lot of smaller projects in our home. Wayne and Eligio were prompt, polite, super helpful, and did great work! It isn't super cheap ($94/hr), but I had a lot of smaller tasks to get done that varied in skill level. They were super competent. I will definitely use them again! More...

We asked a Fixer first to repair our dishwasher that suddenly stopped draining, and it wasn't clogged. He made some adjustments, showed us what the problem seemed to be so that we would know if it happened again. When he finished, we took him to see a glass shower door that was starting to shift and stick when we tried to open it. After two trips, the door was fixed. It was a complicated job, and the Fixer who started it, came back when it wasn't quite right. It was expensive to complete the work, but it was worth it. The shower door was done well and looks good. An earlier attempt to fix that shower door was less than professional. More...

Hired for a small job I didn't have the tools myself to do (hung hook into concrete ceiling). Service was great and only took 30min. The rep also gave me helpful advice on other small projects I am doing myself. Will hire again in the future. 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! More...

My go-to.  We just finished a major renovation of our house, but we had lots of little things that needs attention.  I tired Fixer for a simple paint job and leaky sink, and after their professionalism, communication, and work I was impressed.  They are also a Public Benefit Corp with apprenticeship and training for their employees.  Mission driven too?!  Love it.The process of scheduling through their website is also smooth and another reason why they are my go to.  Instead of awkwardly trying to explain over the phone to someone, you get a text confirming the time slot and request for pictures.  Based on the pics, you get an estimate of hours.  Work gets done, auto-pay like Lyft, drop a tip if you'd like, and done.  Final bonus - they are honest about what they CAN'T do.  We had a leak under our tub.  The guy inspected it, found the issue, said it's beyond their type of handyman work, and within 10min they texted me referrals to plumbing companies with the right hardware and expertise.

Gwen T was awesome! Our first time checking out Fixer. We botched hanging a curtain rod and needed it hung properly as well as the bad install covered up. Gwen was on time and was able to take care of the cover up a d install in under an hour. She even took the time to hang the curtains. Throughout she made sure it was how we wanted by asking questions I hadn't even thought about, like if we wanted it centered in the room or over the window as these two things are not quite the same in this room. Also, exactly how far we wanted the rod to extend on either side. More...

We used Fixer to do a bunch of odd jobs around the house. The booking process was great. They took care to get all the details in advance so they'd show up prepared. Our fixer, Toufik, showed up exactly at 9a as scheduled. We did a walkthrough and he got right down to work. Very happy with the results. I will use Fixer again. More...

My boss hired Fixer to come do some work around our small school.  Kat was awesome! She was efficient, friendly, a clear communicator and really cool.  She fixed a bunch of stuff the kids had worn down over time- toilet paper holders, door hinges and installed some shelves, anchored some furniture for safety.  The biggest thing she did is what our contractor DIDN'T do: put handles on the cabinet doors and fix some track lighting that HAS NEVER WORKED.  We even had an electrician tell me, "You are going to have to re-wire, blah, blah, blah" but Kat spent twenty minutes on a ladder and they WORK now!  Highly recommend!

The communication from this company is pretty good. We used them for a few projects and 2 out of the 3 times they were on top of it! I will say, the work was hit or miss. We were impressed by some of it, like dry walling, but painting was spotty. We were trying to sell our house and realtor actually made us have two places repainted after Fixer painted them Not ideal. Overall, I think it depends on who you get to complete the project. Prices are very reasonable and they have good communication which can be hard to find. More...

These guys are great! Quality work, knowledgeable and friendly staff and workers- top tier customer service. They communicate via text message which is really convenient and quickly and fairly address issues, questions or concerns. My fixer even went to Home Depot twice during our appointment to get me the correct materials because there was some miscommunication about what we needed.

I called Fixer after experiencing this worst move of my life which on top of everything else left one huge Henredon armoire behind and broken because two move teams could not figure out how to get it apart to move it. Jabril and Cat accomplished in under an hour what two groups of experienced and skilled movers could not. It was a complex dissemble and Jabril and Cat very calmly worked their way through how to get it apart. I'm so happy not to lothis beautiful piece of furniture with my move. You guys are awesome!!!Part Two -Today another team from The Fixer, this time Wayne and Cat, to repair and reassemble the armoire in the new apartment! Just like last time, they worked quickly but ever so carefully to put this piece of furniture back together again. In spite of significant damage done by my movers they were able to repair the armoire so it is not only functional again, but looks great again!! More...
