A Derby entrepreneur has launched a fresh new way for homeowners to find trusted tradespeople and get household repairs sorted fast.
Christopher Monk – already behind two successful businesses in the city – has launched Fixd FM, a hassle-free service for everyday property fixes, from leaking taps to dodgy doors and flat-pack furniture builds.
Fixd FM is here to help not just local homeowners but also landlords and commercial clients across the Midlands, offering everything from emergency callouts to ongoing maintenance support.
“We wanted to make booking repairs as easy as ordering a taxi, and with Fixd FM we believe we have achieved that,” said Christopher.
“Fixd FM is a one-stop solution for people in Derby – and across the Midlands – who need a reliable property maintenance service. The business is based in the city and offers flexible, cost-effective repair options and solutions for all kinds of home issues.”
Need a repair? It’s super simple. Just pick up the phone or hop online, report the problem, and a qualified, trustworthy tradesperson will be on their way in just a few hours.
“Our idea is that Fixd FM will stop you having to call a dozen plumbers or electricians only to find none of them want the job or don’t show up when they say they will. With one call to us, you’ll have a handyman on the way and your problem solved.”
The lightbulb moment for Fixd FM came when Christopher was in Dubai and saw how easy it was for locals to book maintenance help.
“I was chatting with friends who live in the city, and they told me about a handyman service they use for home repairs. They just pay an hourly rate, book a pro, and the jobs get done,” he said.
“When I started to think about it more, I realised there was a gap in the market in the UK. So, I decided to do something about it. Now, when homeowners or businesses need a skilled and trusted tradesperson, they can simply book online – and we’ll have someone on the way in no time.”
While most bookings are handled online, there’s also a handy helpline for elderly customers or anyone with limited internet access.
Fixd FM’s services cover plumbing, electrics, heating, general repairs, carpentry, building, roofing, and even pest control.
And it's not just homes they help with. Fixd FM also offers tailored facilities management for businesses, with Christopher bringing his own property background to the table. Landlords, estate agents, and commercial clients can all benefit from smoother property upkeep and management.
Fixd FM Commercial is all about keeping business spaces safe, functional, and looking sharp.
“By providing proactive maintenance, rapid emergency response, and reliable repairs, we reduce long-term costs and enhance the lifespan of your assets,”
Christopher explained.
“Our comprehensive services – from electrical and plumbing to HVAC and general upkeep – ensure everything runs smoothly, so you can focus on running your business.”
“Our goal is to make sure homes and businesses in this area get the care they deserve – and as seamlessly as possible. From little odd jobs to full refurbishments, our qualified team of tradesmen gets the job done, no fuss. Just leave it with us – we’ll get it fixed.”
