No More Unnecessary Calls: How to Solve a Problem with One Button

1007 words • about 5 minutes reading

In 2025, the digitalization of our daily lives is more real than ever. When an unexpected problem arises at home – a dripping faucet, a non-working outlet, or a broken handle – few people have the time (or desire) to call dozens of handymen, wait for callbacks, and wonder who is reliable and who is not. With the mobile app Fix! everything happens with one button: you post a request, receive offers, choose a handyman, and track the execution – directly from your phone.

Small Repairs – Big Concern for the Home

Let's admit it – small household repairs often turn into big headaches. The reason? Lack of quick access to proven handymen, uncertainty in prices, difficult communication, and the risk of poor service. In Bulgaria, the market for small repair services is fragmented, and standards vary. Legislation (e.g., Ordinance No. 4/2009 on the minimum safety requirements for constructions) requires certain activities to be performed by a licensed specialist – but how do we understand and organize this within 24 hours?

The Digital Transformation of Home Services

This is where the revolution comes in. Fix! introduces a new standard – a transparent, fast, and secure process. The platform functions as a marketplace, bringing together handymen and clients in real-time, with a strong focus on quality and transparency. Everything is digitized: communication, payments, reviews, guarantees. What do users gain?

• No unnecessary calls – the request is posted in seconds, and handymen respond directly in the app.
• Comparison of offers – you see prices, deadlines, and ratings before making a choice.
• Guaranteed quality – after each repair, you can leave a rating and comment, and Fix! monitors for non-compliant contractors.
• Secure payment – through an integrated system, funds are transferred to the handyman only after confirmation that the service was performed qualitatively.
• Local specialists – you search for handymen only in your area, saving time and money.

Real Example: Appliance Repair in Sofia

Ivan lives in the capital district "Lozenets" and one Sunday morning notices that his microwave is not working. Instead of searching for contacts and calling acquaintances, he uses Fix!:

1. Posts a request with a photo and detailed description of the problem.
2. Within 30 minutes, receives 4 offers from licensed electricians in the area.
3. Compares prices (from 40 to 65 BGN), ratings, and available times for a visit.
4. Chooses a handyman with a 4.9 rating, average price, and the possibility for a visit the same day.
5. Pays through the app – the amount is withheld but transferred to the contractor only after completion and confirmation by Ivan.

The result? The repair is completed in less than 24 hours, without a single unnecessary call or unpleasant surprise in the price.

Specialized Advice for Companies and Households

Fix! is not only for private clients – the platform is extremely valuable for small and medium-sized companies that manage offices, stores, or commercial spaces. What are the advantages?

• Digital archive – every request and completed repair is stored, facilitating accounting and tracking of expenses.
• Subscription services – possibility for regular maintenance, prophylaxis, and preventive repairs at preferential prices.
• Strict adherence to standards – you choose only licensed and certified handymen, ensuring compliance with legal requirements.
• Flexible payment methods – invoicing, bank transfer, card payment, or through a company account.

Unconventional Ideas for Optimization and Digital Growth

For companies looking to optimize their maintenance process, Fix! also offers additional opportunities:

• Integration with internal ERP systems – automatic generation and tracking of requests.
• Monthly analyses and reports – statistics on expenses by objects, types of repairs, average response time.
• Dynamic pricing – based on handyman workload and seasonal factors, allowing better budget control.
• Partnership programs – companies can offer Fix! to their employees as an additional social package (e.g., for employees working from home).

Technical Advantages and Security

Fix! uses modern security technologies and personal data protection. All payments go through certified channels (PCI DSS), and communication is encrypted. For additional peace of mind – there is a video identification function for 

the handymen, as well as the option to share the location during the visit.

Local Prices and Transparency

One of the most common questions is: How much will it cost? Fix! works with recommended price ranges for different services (e.g., outlet installation in Sofia – 25-40 BGN; mixer replacement in Varna – 35-55 BGN; small carpentry services in Plovdiv – 50-80 BGN), but the final price is formed based on offers from handymen and the specifics of the problem. The difference? The end client sees everything in advance and there are no hidden fees – every offer is binding.

How to Make the Most of the Platform

• Describe the problem as detailed as possible and attach photos – this ensures accurate offers.
• Take advantage of the rating system – review the feedback for handymen before making a choice.
• Plan repairs on less busy days (Wednesday, Thursday) – prices are often more favorable.
• If you have a company – create a corporate profile and use subscription packages for cost optimization.
• Ask for a guarantee on completed repairs – Fix! offers the possibility for additional insurance.
