Mount Prospect, IL

The cost

Stop paying a handyman $300–$500 every time something breaks in your Mount Prospect home

Mount Prospect 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.

Why us

Why Mount Prospect homeowners trust FixHome+

FixHome+ Roman Using Hand Circular Saw

Roman, FixHome+ founder & handyman

Meet your Mount Prospect handyman

Roman is the founder and lead technician. He handles every job across ZIP codes 60056, 60057, and 60058. With more than ten years working on NW Chicago suburbs properties, he knows what breaks, when it breaks, and how to keep it from breaking again. When you book, Roman shows up — not a dispatcher routing jobs to whoever is available. He approaches each home as its own maintenance project: a set of systems with a history and a specific list of things to stay ahead of. That consistency is something a one-off call cannot deliver.

Serving all of Mount Prospect

FixHome+ covers Mount Prospect (60056, 60057, 60058) and nearby Prospect Heights (60070), Arlington Heights (60004, 60005, 60006, 60007), Des Plaines (60016, 60018), Elk Grove Village (60007, 60009), and Wheeling (60090, 60095). One subscription, one technician, one point of contact. If you live near a border ZIP, your home is covered the same as any other address in the network.

Over a decade in the same neighborhoods

FixHome+ has worked on homes across this area 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. He has seen the same plumbing issues, the same garage door problems, and deferred repairs pile up across the same streets year after year. That institutional knowledge is what separates a subscription from a single service call. When you book a second visit, Roman already knows your address. He knows what he fixed last time, what he flagged for the future, and what to check while he is there.

Services

What we fix in Mount Prospect homes

In this area, the most common calls are Dryer vent cleaning, Leak Assessment and Fixes, TV Mounting and Installation, Outlet and Switch Replacement, and Faucet Replacement. Older properties also see regular Gutter cleaning & repair and Air filter replacement as original systems reach end of life. Seasonal work — Exterior door seal replacement and Garage door maintenance — rounds out the year across all ZIP codes.

A home in the NW Chicago suburbs runs through a predictable maintenance cycle. Dryers clog in winter. Gutters back up in fall. Faucets and disposal units fail at the worst possible time. Having a handyman already on the schedule, rather than someone you are hunting for on a Tuesday, is what keeps small issues from becoming expensive ones. The subscription means your home gets checked 12 times a year, not just when something breaks. That cadence is what maintenance is supposed to look like.

See the complete list of 70+ services — from TV Mounting and Installation to Grab Bars Installation — on our full service list.

Comparison

FixHome+ vs. the other options in Mount Prospect

Local handymen in Mount Prospect 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. There's no maintenance log, no scheduling cadence, and no accountability between jobs. Every call starts from zero. By the time a problem gets bad enough to act on, the search starts all over again. A one-off handyman fixes what you called about and leaves. A subscription is built around knowing the home end to end.

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 franchise name on the truck does not guarantee the same technician comes back — or that anyone remembers what was done at your address six months ago. Consistency requires continuity, and hourly scheduling does not provide that. A different person walks into your home every time and starts the diagnostic process from the beginning.

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. At some point the cost of your time plus the materials plus the do-overs exceeds what a professional would have charged. And some repairs get harder and more expensive the longer they sit. Deferred maintenance compounds: what costs $150 to fix today can run $600 six months from now.

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.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Most new subscribers get their free visit scheduled within 48 hours. All services are booked through the app — subscribers get priority scheduling over one-time calls. You pick the time, confirm in the app, and the visit is locked in. No chasing someone down by phone, no waiting weeks for a callback.

Subscriptions start at $184/month and include 12 visits per year. Non-subscribers pay $125/hour with no trip charges. Over 12 visits, a subscriber pays an effective $92/hour — compared to $300–$500 per call at standard rates elsewhere. The subscription math works in your favor after the first few jobs.

Yes. No contract. Cancel from the app whenever you want.

We walk the home, fix a few things on the spot, and put together a maintenance plan for your specific property. No credit card, no commitment.

Handyman rates in the Chicago suburbs run $75–$250/hour, depending on the scope. FixHome+ non-subscribers pay $125/hour. Home Harmony subscribers pay an effective $92/hour with no trip charges.

Look for full-time employees, fixed pricing, and booking that doesn't require a phone call. Contractor marketplaces match you to whoever is available — not necessarily whoever is good. A subscription model means the same person shows up every time, which builds accountability and a documented record of what has been done at your property.

Standard rates run $100–$150/hour for one-off jobs. Home Harmony subscribers pay an effective $92/hour with no trip fees. For homeowners running 10 or more repair and maintenance jobs per year, the subscription math is straightforward: the plan pays for itself well before the end of the year.

For minor repairs, installations, and regular maintenance, a handyman is faster and cheaper. For larger scopes — kitchen remodeling, major plumbing overhauls — FixHome+ coordinates with vetted local contractors through the app.

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.
