The cost
Stop paying a handyman $300–$500 every time something breaks in your Barrington home
Barrington homeowners spend $3,600–$6,000 a year on reactive repairs — each one its own search, its own wait, its own $300–$500 bill. A Home Harmony subscription is $184 per month.
But the cost comparison isn't really the point. What changes is that you stop scrambling. Same technician. A maintenance plan that actually carries over. When something breaks, you're not starting from zero.
Here's what that cycle costs across 12 months.
Home Harmony
One sump pump replacement runs $200–$400. Book two in a year and the subscription's covered itself.
Why us
Why Barrington homeowners trust FixHome+
Roman, FixHome+ founder & handyman
Meet your Barrington handyman
Roman handles jobs across the service area. He has spent 10+ years working on properties in the northwest Chicago suburbs and knows the local housing stock, the seasonal patterns, and what fails in different construction types. Every visit is booked through the app and tracked. You get the same technician each time, with a full record of what was done and what comes next — not whoever happened to be free that day.
Serving all of Barrington
FixHome+ covers Barrington (60010, 60011) and nearby Deer Park (60015), Inverness (60010, 60067), Lake Zurich (60047, 60077), Lake Barrington (60010, 60084), and Kildeer (60047, 60071).
Over a decade in the same neighborhoods
FixHome+ has worked in Barrington and the surrounding communities for more than ten years. Roman knows these properties: how they were built, what fails first, and what seasonal maintenance actually looks like here. Basements need attention after wet springs. Garage doors wear faster in cold winters. Gutters clog fast with the tree cover common in these suburbs.

Services
What we fix in Barrington homes
In Barrington, the most common calls are Basement Sump Pump Replacement, Gutter cleaning & repair, Patching and paint touch-ups, Door and doorknob adjustment, and Garage door spring replacement. Older properties also see regular Leak Assessment and Fixes and Faucet Replacement as original plumbing reaches end of life. Seasonal work — Holiday lights setup and Seasonal garden hose setup — rounds out the year across all ZIP codes served.
With 12 annual visits, subscribers can work through that list on an actual schedule. One visit might cover a sump pump check, two sticky doors, a bathroom caulk repair, and a dryer vent cleaning — tasks that would each require a separate call and wait otherwise. Subscribers also get access to minor electrical work, smart home device installation, senior safety modifications like Grab Bars Installation, and seasonal exterior maintenance under the same monthly rate.
The visits stack. Roman shows up knowing what was repaired last time, what needs attention this visit, and what to schedule for next month. A property on a consistent maintenance schedule stays ahead of the repairs that become expensive. The backlog gets shorter.
Each completed visit is logged in the app. You can see what was done last month, what's coming up, and any pending recommendations. There is no separate invoice to track and no back-and-forth about what got done during a visit.
Dryer vents, sump pumps, garage door tracks, exterior caulk — none of these are emergencies until they are. A regular maintenance schedule keeps them that way.

Comparison
FixHome+ vs. the other options in Barrington
Local handymen in Barrington can be skilled, but finding a good one takes two to three weeks, billing is $300–$500 per job, and there's no way to track what's been done or what's coming next.
Franchise brands are more consistent than a cold Craigslist search. You're still paying hourly, and what you get still depends on who shows up that day.
DIY works until it doesn't. The tools add up, the weekends disappear, and half the projects on the list haven't moved in months.
FixHome+ is the fourth option: a flat-rate handyman subscription with a dedicated technician, app-based scheduling, and 12 visits per year built in. No hourly surprises. No availability hunt. No deferred weekend projects.

Our Mission
Why FixHome+ exists
I spent more than a decade doing handyman work across the NW Chicago suburbs before starting FixHome+. The problem was always the same: homeowners paying $300–$500 for repairs that got bad because they had no one to call before they did. A subscription with one technician and one monthly fee is what he built to change that.
