Why choose Fixoo over another platform?
Many platforms promise to connect you with professionals. But between commissions on every job, contact details hidden behind a form, and subscriptions costing hundreds of euros per year, reality often falls short of the promises. Fixoo was built differently — and here is why.
A model built for tradespeople and homeowners, not intermediaries
Most large matching platforms work on a simple principle: they position themselves between the client and the tradesperson and take a commission on every job. This may seem trivial, but across a full year it can represent thousands of euros taken directly from a tradesperson's revenue — for work they alone performed.
At Fixoo, we made a different choice. Professionals can create their profile for free and be visible in the Fixoo directory. The Pro plan at 39 € per year lets you receive client requests and access Fixoo's professional tools. No commission on completed work. No fee per quote submitted. No back-commission on services. Once registered, a professional is visible all year, can be contacted without quota, and keeps their entire income.
For homeowners, the platform is and will remain entirely free. Looking for an electrician, a plumber, or someone to renovate your bathroom? You have direct access to professionals' contact details without filling in a form, without waiting for an algorithm to "connect" you, and without going through a middleman.
Some platforms apply a commission or fees on jobs. Across a full year, it can represent thousands of euros taken directly from a tradesperson's revenue — every single year.
At Fixoo: free profile, Pro from 39 € per year. No commission.

8 good reasons
What makes Fixoo truly different
We could stack up marketing arguments. But Fixoo's advantages do not come from an ad campaign — they come directly from the way the platform was built.
-
100% free for homeowners
No mandatory registration, no hidden commission, no subscription. You look for a professional, you find them, you contact them. It is that simple.

Zero intermediary between you and the tradesperson
A professional's phone number or email address is visible directly on their profile. No need to send a request and wait for them to "accept" your enquiry. Contact is immediate.
-
No commission on completed work
What you pay your tradesperson belongs entirely to them. Fixoo takes nothing from the final invoice, neither at quote signing nor at job completion. This model encourages professionals to set fair prices without compensating a platform margin.
