Patrick fixed something that has not worked in 3 years. I thought it would be a bigger fix and multiple visits but he was confident that he knew the problem but would evaluate how big of a project it would be before he moved forward. It took him 20 minutes to fix it! I couldn't believe I waited three years to get this done!

- Fix tv switch

I'm signed up for Fixer's monthly maintenance program and it's been great so far. I love the customer service, and especially that I can text with the concierge.
