Keeping Consumers Safe
FixMyHouse is built to address platform shortcomings, protecting consumers with milestone payments and trustworthy, unbiased reviews.
Lowering Risk for Consumers
A pay-per-milestone structure reduces risk for consumers, lowering the chance of disputes and making any issues easier to resolve.
Correcting Incentive Structures
As a platform funded by consumers instead of tradespeople, the incentive structure inspires more trust that reviews are genuine.

CheckaTrade Review
"BEWARE - A CheckaTrade listed gas engineer used an unlicensed engineer. This is a criminal offence currently being investigated by HSE."
H Clarke
CheckaTrade Review
"They delete negative reviews! Had an appalling trader but they deleted my fair review because the trader asked them to."
