Snap, Diagnose, Save: How Fixxr Works
Fixxr was built with one goal in mind: give homeowners clarity and confidence when something breaks at home.
No confusing jargon. No inflated quotes. Just real information — fast.
Here’s exactly how Fixxr works from the moment you open the app:
📸 Step 1: Snap a Photo of the Problem
Start by using your phone to take a clear photo of the issue — whether it’s a leak under the sink, a broken light switch, or a loose cabinet hinge. The more context you can capture, the better Fixxr can identify the issue.
You can also upload a photo from your camera roll if you’ve already taken one.
🤖 Step 2: Get an Instant Analysis
Our system compares your image to a database of thousands of verified home issues. Within seconds, you’ll receive:
A likely diagnosis of what the issue is
A breakdown of what’s typically involved in the repair
A DIY difficulty score (1 to 5)
A fair price estimate for your local area
This estimate includes expected labor, material, and contractor markup — so you know exactly where your money should be going.
🛠️ Step 3: Choose Your Path
After the diagnosis, you can decide how to move forward:
🧰 Try a DIY Fix
If the difficulty is low and you’re comfortable doing it yourself, Fixxr provides a step-by-step repair guide with the tools and materials you’ll need.
👷 Compare Contractor Pricing
Want a professional to handle it? Fixxr helps you compare your contractor’s quote against our estimate, so you can spot overcharging and negotiate with confidence.
You can even store and track your quotes in-app.
📁 Bonus: Save and Track Issues
Not ready to fix it right away? No problem.
You can save any issue to your “Home Repairs” list inside the app to revisit later. Perfect for keeping track of pending fixes, big seasonal maintenance tasks, or quotes you’re waiting on.
🔒 What Fixxr Doesn't Do (Yet)
We don’t currently connect you to specific contractors in our own network — but we’re working on it. For now, Fixxr focuses on helping you understand what’s normal, what’s possible, and what’s fair while giving suggestions of local contractors.
✅ The Bottom Line
Fixxr turns home repair stress into smart decision-making. With just a photo, you’ll know what’s wrong, what it should cost, and how hard it is to fix — so you never have to guess (or overpay) again.
