The cost
Stop paying a handyman $300–$500 every time something breaks in your Northfield home
Northfield 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 Northfield homeowners trust FixHome+
Roman, FixHome+ founder & handyman
Meet your Northfield handyman
Roman is the founder and lead handyman at FixHome+. He handles Northfield jobs personally, working on homes across the NW Chicago suburbs for more than ten years. When you book, Roman shows up — the same person every time. He does not subcontract, does not send a rotating crew, and does not treat a first visit as a diagnostic with a follow-up quote. He comes ready to work, and he keeps notes on your home between visits so each appointment builds on the last. That continuity is rare in the handyman industry, and it is the reason subscribers stay.
Serving all of Northfield
FixHome+ covers Northfield (60093, 60063) and nearby Winnetka (60093), Glencoe (60022), Northbrook (60062, 60065), Glenview (60025, 60026, 60027, 60079, 60089), and Wilmette (60091).
Over a decade in the same neighborhoods
FixHome+ has worked on homes in Northfield and the surrounding North Shore 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. North Shore homes carry decades of original plumbing, aging exterior seals, and woodwork that needs consistent attention every year. That context shapes every visit and every maintenance plan he puts together for Northfield homeowners. He has seen the same failure patterns repeat across ZIP codes 60093 and 60063: wood trim that absorbs moisture during winter, bathroom caulk that loosens by spring, and gutters that need clearing twice a year to keep water away from foundations. Knowing what to look for is half the job.

Comparison
FixHome+ vs. the other options in Northfield
Local handymen in Northfield can be skilled, but finding a good one takes two to three weeks, billing runs $300–$500 per job, and there is no record of what has been done or what is coming next. Every call starts from scratch, and the list never actually shrinks. You end up managing the relationship, following up on availability, and repeating context every single time. That is administration, not maintenance. FixHome+ replaces that friction with a single subscription: one handyman, one monthly fee, and a running maintenance log for your home.
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. There is no continuity, no plan, and no one who knows your home. The technician on Tuesday has never seen your property before and will not remember it by Thursday. For homes with recurring maintenance needs, that model produces recurring surprises on the invoice. FixHome+ builds a maintenance record from the first visit forward — so every appointment is informed by the ones before it.
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 backlog of deferred repairs is not a strategy — it is just a more expensive problem waiting to happen. A caulk joint that needed an hour in March becomes a water-damaged wall in November. Deferred maintenance compounds, and the cost compounds with it. A subscription handyman takes that list off your plate and keeps it moving — every single month, not whenever you can carve out a Saturday afternoon.
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.
