I have nothing but great things to say about Things 2 Fix. After a massive renovation project, we were left with two bathtubs that were leaking into the units below us. We had three different contractors come out to repair the leaks. All of them left us with outrageous bills, threats of litigation, and bathtubs that still leaked. After receiving payment, none of them would honor their "warranties" and come back to fix their deficient work. When I initially found Jon on Yelp, I was skeptical. I decided to give him a chance because I had no other options. They were extremely responsive and were able to come out in a few days. They fixed both leaks and honored their warranties for minor things I noticed after they left. Their prices are very reasonable. Furthermore, they are actually licensed, which is rare for most services that you find on Yelp. Most contractors will present a license, but have unlicensed workers do the actual work to cut costs. They are also extremely trustworthy and I would have them work in my home with no one present. If you have any issues, I highly recommend you contact them. They will not disappoint. As to the negative reviews left by Ryenne and Amy, all I can say is that Things 2 Fix was one of the most responsive contractors I have come across. They will be my first call if I ever need assistance again. read more

Jon and his crew really saved my porch when most repairmen/contractors weren't doing any outdoor work. We had a cracked stringer in December which is a terrible month for anything on the exterior of a house to need to be repaired. I contacted a bunch of contractors/repairmen who wouldn't do any work at all until March because it's just too cold and snowy. Enter Things 2 Fix. Jon was super quick to respond to give me a quote (through Yelp) and was able to come out two days after our initial contact to look the porch over and make the repair. The Things 2 Fix quote was 50% less (in one case 80% less) than what other places quoted me just to make a repair. One person even said they'd have to rebuild the entire porch for $2000 which is just nuts. Jon and his crew were incredibly professional and took their time to repair the porch so it can actually be used by people coming and going from the front door. The repair itself only took about two hours and Jon was able to use material I'd already purchased (I tried to do this repair myself) so he just charged me for the labor. He had said if they needed supplies they would go to the store the day-of and buy what was necessary and he quoted that as about $25 more, but that ended up being moot. I will for sure call Things 2 Fix again when I need something repaired around my house. Being a homeowner means that there will always be something in need of repair and I can only get so far with YouTube tutorials and the basic tools that I have so I'm sure I'll put Jon on speed dial sometime in the future. I highly, highly recommend Things 2 Fix for anything in and around your house. read more

A+++ work. Things 2 Fix knocked it out of the park!!! We needed a garbage disposal installed and got an *outrageous* estimate from Home Depot where we bought the new unit. Consequently, I sourced multiple estimates here through Yelp and got the run-around from literally everyone EXCEPT Things 2 Fix. Where everyone else had sneaky fees and open-ended pricing, these guys were a beacon of honesty. They quoted me a flat rate and stated, and I quote, "We don't f*@k around with pricing like other companies, LOL." That is the straightforward mentality I needed. Plus, their rapid and precise communication left nothing to chance. They got the work, were here the next morning, and gone in under 30 minutes. Bravo!!! Would and will do business again without hesitation. Thanks!!! read more

Ran into a home fix it emergency when I was out of town, and T2F came through in short notice, and it took them less than an hour to resolve our jammed door. Thanks so much for being available, organized and following through . I will definitely use them in the future for our household needs! read more

Things 2 Fix helped us replace a kitchen faucet that was leaking and repair a dripping faucet in the bathroom. They were fairly priced, professional, and did an excellent job. They completed the work in a timely fashion and my wife and I are very excited to use our new faucet. We would highly recommend! read more

These guys do great work, they are on time, and honest. They probably could have charged me more due to the fact that the vanity I bought broke and I had to go to Home Depot for a new one but they didn't. When I say honest, I mean honest. My house is an older bungalow and I knew that a simple vanity install wouldn't be so simple...and it wasn't. Yet these guys delivered. Not only would I recommend them for anyone else, I will use them again. They come highly recommended. I actually paid them more because I felt like they deserved a little more. read more

Jon quickly responded to my message on Yelp about installing something as simple as a shower rod. Yes, I couldn't do this project myself despite given simple instructions. My frustrations led me to look on Yelp and I'm glad I did. Jon was very good with communication from the start. Came into my unit and got right to work, was also respectful enough to cover his shoes in my home. Jon and Jon jr made sure the rod was placed to my preference and kept to the quote price at the end! Clear on pricing, responsive, and does an outstanding job! I will be sure to get in touch with future projects. read more

Super impressed with Things 2 Fix. Their rates were competitive with other quotes we received, but after several bad experiences with other contractors, I have stopped hiring based on quote alone. However, Jon, the owner, was REALLY responsive with my messages (a rarity in the contractor world) and their reviews were great so I decided to give them a go. They arrived EARLY (actually, they would have been even earlier, if I had been home to let them in) and got the job done quickly and painlessly. The job was that they installed a new vanity top on our sink. Would definitely hire again for other projects. read more

Jon and his team were fantastic. I had a plumbing emergency during the historic cold snap in Chicago and needed my toilet installed. I spoke with Jon who said he did not have any technicians available for day-of service, but he would come do the job himself. Jon was here in less than 2 hours and got the job done extremely quickly. His team was efficient and professional. I am so thankful to have found this company and will definitely be using them for my next home project! read more

You can trust the guys from things to fix can get whatever job done and can put the finishing touches together to beautify your home. I called them for a crown molding and backsplash job and they were able to complete that and another side project in 2 days. excellent skill cuts and craftsmanship to give the kitchen a fine finished look. " read more

Very professional service! They came out and completed my home improvement project in one day! I am so happy with the results! Thank you so much! I will be calling soon for another project! You guys are the best! read more

With less than 24 hours notice they came over, had extremely fair pricing, and did the job competently and professionally. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a handyman. I look forward to using them for future jobs. read more

Unimpressed. Despite being listed as having a 100% response rate and coming up in the first couple of listings for my town, I got no response to an email submitted via their website nor to my follow up call. I'm moving on. read more

John and John Jr. did a great job installing a closet rod into brick/masonry - I couldn't find anyone else willing to do it. They came on very short notice, measured and picked up the supplies for me, and installed exactly as I wanted. It was clear they knew what they were doing! They are polite, patient, respectful of your home, very quick to respond, and reasonably priced! I highly recommend and I will be using them again! read more

Jon and his team completed a bathroom remodel for me a couple months back. It lasted 6 days and they tiled the floor, shower and switched out the sink and shower faucet. Jon was great about listening to what I wanted. There were a couple of things I asked him to redo and he did it with out hesitation. The finish product is beautiful and it was thousands of dollars less than other quotes I received. I would use Jon and his team again. read more

See all

Excellent service. Came out on Saturday to install my garbage disposal. They were in and out in less than an hour and took away the old unit. Both guys that came out were clean and efficient in getting things done, would definitely use them again! read more

These guys were fantastic and I would definitely hire them again! Jon responded to my estimate request immediately. His quote was reasonable and he was able to accommodate my schedule to complete the work on a specific day I needed, with just a couple days notice. They arrived promptly and handled a variety of items on an inspection punch list. All of the work was done more quickly than expected and came in below original estimate. They were professional, helpful and very courteous. I highly recommend Things 2 Fix! read more

Jon was able to fit me in for a same-day appointment. His crew came on time, wiped their feet, put protective coverings on their boots and went right to work. The guys finished the job quickly and hardly made a peep. There was no attempt to try to up-sell me on more services. They charged the price that was originally quoted which was better than anyone else out there! read more

I used Things 2 Fix back in January to replace the wax ring of our toilet that was leaking. They completed the job quickly and were very responsive. I asked them to come back out this month (July) after I noticed some pooling of water around the toilet. I thought it needed a new wax ring but it turns out there was a small drip coming from a loose bolt/screw in the toilet tank. They were able to quickly diagnose the problem and didn't charge for coming back out the second time. Problem solved! I would use things 2 fix again in the future! Thanks guys. read more

I had an appointment scheduled for an estimate this morning. No one showed. I called to find out if anyone was coming (as I sit outside my rental building in my car). No one answered but I received a text saying there was a family emergency and they had to leave town unexpectedly-said he thought they sent cancellation emails out but "just remembered" he didn't get my email address. I don't have time to waste so I'm pretty annoyed. This is an Unprofessional time wasting "business." Nope. No thanks. read more

These guys are great. I've owned a construction company for years and they have been my go to "fix everything" guys. They're great for all your handyman needs and small remodeling work. John is extremely friendly and easy to work with. Well deserving of the 5 star rating. read more

Needed a large air conditioner unit installed. Jon responded quickly and gave me a very fair price quote. We made the request on a Sunday and he was able to come do the job the next day. Him and his team arrived on time, put protective coverings on their shoes, worked fast and did a great job. The price they quoted was the price I paid. It was a simple, fair, effective and quick turnaround. They are a fairly new business and we are always happy to support great local businesses and services. I would hire them again and would recommend them if you have any handyman needs in your place. read more

Jon and his team met and exceeded all expectations. I immediately got a good vibe from these guys. Their assessment of the work seemed straightforward and honest, and their quote was 30% less than any other contractor. They handled my tub to shower conversion seamlessly, staying on schedule and budget. Highly recommend. read more

I had a leak under my kitchen sink on a Saturday morning and after requesting a quote Things 2 Fix came back with the best price and was at my place an hour later. The plumber and his assistant got right to work. It was not an easy fix but it was done in about an hour and for a great price. I will definitely be calling them again. read more

Things 2 Fix was speedy, professional and did am awesome job fixing my issue! They repaired a hole I made attempting to fix something myself and now I won't ever need to do that again since I know I can call them! The work looks great and they cleaned up everything so you'd never even know they were here. Highly recommend using them. read more

I contacted this company, because their description stated that they serviced the Chicagoland Area and home remodeling was a service that they also provided. Jon replied back stating that they do not service my area (60628) and went further to joke about it, stating "we used to do it, but now we're trying to keep it simple ha." I didn't find his reponse funny, but rather unprofessional. read more

I've used these guys for almost a year on a rental property I purchased. They've helped me with electrical, plumbing, and random odd jobs that I just don't know how to fix. They've always shown up when they say they will, they do their work diligently, and they charge fairly and competitively. My experiences with them have shown them to be honest, capable, and dependable. Anytime I need work done I check with these guys first to see if they're available. Highly recommended! read more

Jon and his team were fantastic. Incredibly priced, very professional, and very honest. I reached out to 5-6 other handyman's for my job and they all quoted me at least double the price Jon ultimately charged. He was also able to do it in one visit and came the very next day! It's always hard to find a good handyman that you trust and I think I've found it here! read more

I had a simple plumbing problem that need fixed. Jon was super responsive and was able to come out the following morning. Prices were very competitive. Will keep him in mind for future work for sure. read more

These guys are great, thy are hardworking, personable, and took the time to ensure the job was done right even though it took more time than they first imagined. I would not hesitate to use them again or recommend them to anyone. read more

Whenever I get an email from a tenant, I'm filled with dread. Let the headache begin! Fortunately, Jon and his team was able to alleviate mine very easily. He did a great job with a 2nd floor bathtub that was leaking and damaged a 1st floor bedroom ceiling. He responded to my request immediately and provided a quote that was reasonable and significantly less than others. When the caulking didn't stick because the bathtub was still wet, Jon came back and re-caulked the bathtub with a thicker agent. He reminded me that all of his work was guaranteed for a year and to not hesitate to contact him with any additional issues. Professional, good communication, great work = 5 star rating from me! My tenants are happy with the work and that means my headache is gone. Highly recommend Jon and his team for future projects, I definitely have his name saved in my phone book! read more

Jon and his team were great! They responded quickly, very reasonable rates and a job well done. They were right on time as well. We will certainly be using them again and would refer them to anyone. read more

They were affordable, kept to the quote and did a very nice job with painting my place. I would recommend them to others.

We had stairs off the back of our house that were in urgent need of being replaced. Things 2 Fix were responsive and fit us in due to the urgency. They are professional and courteous...which isn't a requirement for good work but when you have someone at your home that is a consideration. They came in and did the work and we were really happy with how the new stairs turned out. They built them exactly as we had requested and the results were detailed and precise. We love our new stairs and will be using Jon and team for future work. read more

I was quite pleased with this company. The workers arrive right on time, did a great job, and were very pleasant. I will be working with them again. read more

Jon has done several projects for me that have been done fantastically. He accommodated my schedule, is reasonably priced, professional, responsive and courteous. He was able to fix things that other couldn't and responded swiftly when I had an emergency water leak. I can't say enough good things about Things2Fix, they are wonderful. read more

Jon and his crew were very helpful in reviewing some issues we had with our door. He responded in a very timely manner and showed up on time! When the issue was nothing major, he provided advice and a way for me to solve the problem without charging me anything. Really appreciated his time and consideration, and I definitely recommend. read more

Great service! I will definitely call them again for future projects of mine. I needed some work done on my kitchen sink and they came out that day for a very reasonable price. I recommend them for your next project. read more

Jon responded immediately when I sent an estimate request with a description and photo of the problem. We set up a day/time and he even showed up early. Professional, courteous, and timely. I'd hire again for other jobs. read more
