A New Era For Bristol Tradespeople
Let’s be honest, being a trade isn’t the problem. You’ve got the graft, the skills, the van, the tools, the insurance, the lot. The problem is everything else that comes with trying to keep the diary full. Lead fees, subscriptions, bidding wars, and customers who disappear the second you send a quote.
It shouldn’t be this hard to find decent local work.
We’ve all got apps for everything now. Need a taxi? Uber. A holiday? Air BnB. Even food shopping turns up at your door. But finding plumbing, electrical, or locksmith jobs still feels like it’s stuck in 2009.
Phixed is here to sort that. A brand-new app, now live in Bristol, connecting verified local trades with homeowners who actually need the job doing. Quickly, clearly, and without the usual faff.
Get it Phixed
Stop Paying for Work
Here’s the big one. Phixed is completely free for tradespeople. No lead fees, no subscriptions, no paying to unlock a phone number. You sign up, set your work radius, add your details, and you’re ready to go. When a job comes in that matches what you do, you get notified in real time.
“What’s the catch?” we hear you say. There isn’t one. We add our fee on top of yours, so you keep what you charge, and you don’t pay a penny to get the work.
Real Jobs, Real-Time
Homeowners post what they need, add photos, and it lands straight on your phone if it’s in your area. You can respond quickly, quote properly, and get on with it. Then at the end, pop, there’s your invoice. Bosh.
Built for Proper Trades
Every trade on the app is verified for insurance, and you can add qualifications too. That means homeowners trust the platform more, and you get fewer cowboys taking the work.
And because ratings matter, the good trades rise to the top. Do a solid job, turn up when you say you will, and you’ll build a reputation that actually follows you, not just a random review on a dodgy directory. Also, drum roll please… you get to rate the homeowner too. We think it’s only fair. Respect works both ways, and both sides should be on their A game.
One App to rule them all. Phixed.
A Community, Not a Cash Grab
We’re building Phixed with trades, not just for them. This isn’t another platform that rinses you for leads and leaves you to it. We want real feedback, proper input, and a community of local trades who help shape how the app works.
If something’s clunky, you tell us. If there’s a feature that would save you time, we want to hear it. The goal is simple, make it the best place for trades to get work, without paying for the privilege.
So if you’re sick of paying for leads and fancy getting jobs sent straight to your phone instead, give Phixed a go. Download the app, get set up, and let the work come to you.
