Fantastic vote of confidence in MrFix
9 Master fixers invest in MrFix despite corona crisis
MrFix and its experts are suffering considerably from the corona crisis. In the second half of March about 40% of jobs got cancelled or postponed indefinitely as many people panicked.

Are you working from home due to the Corona virus?
Then now is the time to arrange a home repair expert!
