The Homefix promise

Built for trust at every step.

Every decision we make at Homefix starts with a single question: does this keep our customers and professionals safe? Here's exactly how we protect you.

How we vet every professional

01

Identity verification

We verify every professional's government-issued ID before they can create a profile or accept jobs.

02

Background check

All pros undergo a comprehensive criminal background check through a third-party screening partner.

03

License & insurance check

For trade work (plumbing, electrical, HVAC, etc.) we verify active licenses and general liability insurance.

04

Ongoing monitoring

We continuously monitor for new incidents and suspend accounts immediately if red flags appear.

Your money is protected

When you pay through Homefix, your money is held securely and only released to the professional after you confirm the job is complete. If something goes wrong, our team steps in to make it right.

  • Payment held in escrow until job completion
  • 256-bit SSL encryption on all transactions
  • No credit card info stored on our servers
  • Full refund if a verified booking is not fulfilled
  • Dispute resolution team available 7 days a week

Review integrity

Every review on Homefix comes from a confirmed customer who completed a real booking through our platform. We don't allow businesses to pay for better ratings, remove negative reviews, or incentivize reviews in any way.

Only verified bookings No pay-to-play ratings Anti-fraud detection

Dispute resolution

If you're ever unsatisfied with a job or a professional doesn't show up, you're protected by the Homefix Guarantee:

The Homefix guarantee

  • Report a problem within 7 days of job completion
  • Our team reviews evidence from both parties
  • Mediated resolution or full/partial refund issued

Staying safe

Use Homefix-confirmed payment instructions

Payment is arranged manually. Only use the method confirmed by the Homefix team, never instructions from an individual technician.

Check the pro's profile

Look for the verified badge, read reviews, and confirm they have the right skills for your job.

Be home during the visit

Or have a trusted adult present. Share your booking details with a friend or family member.

Report anything suspicious

If a technician asks for unapproved payment or unnecessary personal information, contact Homefix immediately.
