Property maintenance quotes — FAQ

FixQuotes is a UK property maintenance quote-sourcing service. Send us a job — a tenant report, an email, or a one-line description — and we return comparable quotes from independent local trades.

Landlords, letting agents, and property managers in the UK who want comparable maintenance quotes without phoning round contractors themselves.

No. FixQuotes is a quote-sourcing service. All works are carried out by independent third-party contractors. Your contract for the work is directly with the contractor you choose.

FixQuotes covers the whole of the UK. We work with independent local trades wherever your property is — including London, the Home Counties, the Midlands, the North West, and Scotland.

Plumbing and heating (Gas Safe), electrical (Part P), roofing, damp and mould, refurbishment, decorating, locksmiths, carpentry, EICRs, EPCs, and gas safety certificates.

Yes. There is no fee, no subscription, and no minimum spend for landlords, letting agents, or property managers. Contractors pay us a referral fee only when they win paid work introduced through us.

Contractors pay FixQuotes a referral fee only if they're awarded the job and the work goes ahead. There is no charge to landlords, agents, or contractors for unsuccessful quotes.

No. You can pick any quote, none of them, or come back later. There's nothing to sign up to and no account to delete.

Of course. FixQuotes is for when you want options. If you already have a trusted trade for a particular job, use them.

Most jobs receive their first quote within hours and a full set of comparable quotes within one to two working days. Emergency jobs (no heating, leaks) are flagged and prioritised.

We turn every job into a contractor-ready brief with the same fields, so the quotes you receive back are like-for-like — same scope, same materials assumptions, same exclusions.

Yes. Mark the job as urgent or emergency and we prioritise it. Typical first response is within hours, with the same Gas Safe / Part P checks applied.

Tell us. We can re-brief the job with a tighter scope, request value-engineering options from the contractors, or source additional quotes.

We confirm public liability insurance for every contractor, plus Gas Safe registration for gas works and Part P competence for fixed electrical work. We collect references and review feedback after each job.

We can source quotes for any of these from appropriately qualified trades. The certificate is issued by the contractor (or registered assessor), not by FixQuotes.

Your contract for the work is directly with the contractor you choose. FixQuotes is the introducer — we are not a party to the contract or the works themselves.

Yes. Many of our customers are letting agents and property managers running maintenance on their landlords' behalf. There's no per-seat fee or contract — use it for one job or every job.

Yes. If you're routing 30+ maintenance jobs a month, get in touch and we'll set up a faster intake (forwarding address or shared inbox).

Every job has a reference number, a brief, and the set of quotes returned. Forward them into your CRM or property management system for a complete record.
