The word “sustainability” means different things to different people. For us as a home improvement service, it means above all that houses and appliances should last a long time. Many people work hard to save energy but forget that you can also make your home more sustainable simply by repairing more and replacing less!
For example, if you want both to save money and reduce your carbon footprint, you can give your household appliances a second life. That is a simple way for you to make a big difference.
Imagine that your washing machine suddenly stops working. Very annoying… and of course it breaks down at the least convenient moment. In a panic you immediately google a new washing machine. Buying something new just feels good, especially around Black Friday…
But think about the enormous environmental impact: your old appliance has to be completely dismantled in order to be recycled. The new machine not only has to be produced but often also transported halfway around the globe! The last few metres are often such a big problem that Customers need have to call MrFix for a mover or plumber. Unfortunately, sometimes the delivery is literally not in your house but on the pavement in front (with Corona as an excuse). Or the washing machine has to be hoisted to the third floor or a professional has to adjust the water connections. And then you still need to dispose properly of the old appliance…
When all that is done you still to learn how to operate your new washing machine. It may sound fun, but you soon discover that you never use those 23 special programmes or the app that allows you to control the washing machine. We understand that some Customers get attached to their appliance and others consciously choose to get it repaired, even if it costs half the price of a new one. The most durable solution is often really to have a certified white goods technician check your machine. Sometimes he can already give you an indication via the Whatsapp group and save you a lot of money, time and stress!
Customers often turn to MrFix because the repair services of most manufacturers are not only expensive but often understaffed and therefore slow. MrFix usually has a white goods mechanic within a few working days. Please always mention brand, model and age, so we can find you the right professional. We always manage with common brands such as Miele, Bosch, Samsung and Whirlpool. The white goods experts are ready to give you advice and bring your machine back to life if possible.
You can count on honest advice from our white goods experts: if your appliance is beyond repair at reasonable cost he will simply say so. MrFix stands for honest, reliable and clear service.
