Our Mission

To build the most trusted marketplace for home services in Italy — one where every homeowner can find a reliable professional in minutes, and every skilled worker can grow a sustainable business with fair, transparent pay.

Our Vision

A future where no one waits days for a plumber or overpays for a painter. We envision a seamlessly connected network spanning every Italian city — and eventually, Europe — where quality home care is accessible to all.

+340% bookings year-over-year

The journey

How HomeFixer came to life

1

2024 — Q1

The problem

Founders Marco and Giulia struggled to find a plumber on a Sunday. They realised the entire home-services market was broken — fragmented, offline, untransparent.

2

2024 — Q3

First version launched

MVP launched in Mantova with 40 professionals. Within 30 days, 200 jobs were booked and the average wait time dropped from 3 days to 4 hours.

3

2025 — Q2

Expanded to 38 cities

Following seed funding, HomeFixer expanded across northern Italy. B2B plans for property managers and real estate agencies were introduced.

2026 — Now

Building the future

AI-powered matching, subscription plans for businesses, and same-day emergency booking — HomeFixer continues to set the standard.

What drives us

Our core values

Trust & Safety

Every professional is verified, background-checked, and reviewed. We never list someone we wouldn't invite into our own home.

Quality First

We obsess over job quality. Low-rated professionals are removed. We guarantee re-service or a full refund — no questions asked.

Speed

Our median time from booking to confirmed professional is under 12 minutes. For emergencies, we target same-day arrival.

Fair for Pros

Professionals keep 85% of every job. No hidden fees. We provide tools, insurance options, and growth coaching for every worker on our platform.

Community

We are a local company. We sponsor neighbourhood events, partner with trade schools, and reinvest in the communities we serve.

Transparency

Fixed price quotes before you confirm. No surprise charges. Real reviews from real customers — unfiltered and unedited.
