The cost
Stop paying a handyman $300–$500 every time something breaks in your Lake Zurich home
Lake Zurich 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 Lake Zurich homeowners trust FixHome+
Roman, FixHome+ founder & handyman
Meet your Lake Zurich handyman
Roman handles every job here. He carries his own tools to every visit, logs each completed repair in the app, and arrives knowing what was done last time. Roman has spent 10+ years working on NW Chicago suburb homes — the kind of houses that need consistent, scheduled attention across seasons rather than a different face every time something goes wrong. When you book through FixHome+, you get the same person back for every visit, not whoever happens to be available that week. That continuity changes how maintenance works.
Serving all of Lake Zurich
FixHome+ covers Lake Zurich (60047, 60077) and nearby Deer Park (60015), Lake Barrington (60010, 60084), Kildeer (60047, 60071), Hawthorn Woods (60047), and Barrington (60010, 60011). All services are booked through the app. Subscribers in 60047 and 60077 get priority scheduling over one-time calls, which means faster first visits and shorter waits when something comes up mid-season. The app shows upcoming maintenance items, past service records, and what is next on the plan — no phone calls needed.
Over a decade in the same neighborhoods
FixHome+ has worked on homes across this part of Lake County and the surrounding suburbs for more than ten years. Roman knows these houses: how they were built, what fails first, and what seasonal maintenance actually looks like here. A Lake Zurich home built in the 1990s has a different maintenance profile than a newer build two miles away. Roman walks the property on the first visit, identifies what needs attention now and what needs monitoring, builds a maintenance plan specific to that structure, and keeps the app record current so nothing gets missed when seasons change.

Services
What we fix in Lake Zurich homes
In Lake Zurich, the most common calls are TV Mounting and Installation, Caulking and grouting, Furniture assembly, Leak Assessment and Fixes, and Air filter replacement. Older homes also see regular Faucet Replacement and Outlet and Switch Replacement as original plumbing and electrical components reach end of life. Seasonal work — Gutter cleaning & repair and Dryer vent cleaning — rounds out the year across all 60047 and 60077 ZIP codes.
For exterior upkeep, subscribers also schedule Pressure wash deck or patio, Window washing, and Exterior walk-around for water or pest signs to stay ahead of weather damage between seasons. Garage door maintenance is a consistent item as well — winters here put real wear on tracks and springs, and a fall checkup prevents the costlier repairs in February. Every service gets logged in the app so Roman and the homeowner can both track what has been completed and what is next. Nothing on that list requires a phone call to schedule. Subscribers book directly through the app, see their service history in one place, and can flag new items for the next visit without waiting on hold or chasing a callback.

Testimonials
We used FixHome+ handyman services when we lived in the Chicago suburbs, and honestly, after moving to another state, this is one of the services we miss the most.

Comparison
FixHome+ vs. the other options in Lake Zurich
Local handymen in the area 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. You call, they come once, fix what you asked about, and then you're back to square one when the next item on the list breaks. No record, no continuity, no incentive for them to show up on time when you are just a one-time job. The search starts over every time. Most homeowners in 60047 and 60077 have experienced this cycle: Google search, a few calls, a two-week wait, one visit, and then a bill that lands higher than expected.
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. A franchised handyman service in the Lake Zurich area charges similar rates to a solo operator, adds a dispatch fee, and sends whoever is on the schedule — not whoever knows your home. Every visit starts from scratch because no one carries a record of what your property needs. The pricing looks similar on paper, but the experience is a rotating cast that never builds any history on your house.
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. A homeowner with a full schedule cannot keep up with seasonal exterior maintenance, recurring plumbing checks, and the dozen small interior repairs that pile up between spring and fall. The list grows faster than it shrinks, and the items sitting at the bottom are usually the ones that get expensive when ignored. A FixHome+ subscription stops that pattern — 12 visits per year keeps the list short.
FixHome+ works differently. One monthly subscription covers 12 handyman visits per year, one per month. Home Harmony subscribers pay an effective $92/hour against the non-subscriber rate of $125/hour. The math: $184 × 12 = $2,208 per year versus a traditional 12-visit approach at $3,600–$6,000. Regular visits catch problems before they turn into repairs. Roman tracks what's been done and what's coming due.

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.
