What Is Fixly Guide?
Fixly Guide brings homeowner education and contractor discovery together.
Homeowners visit to learn about repairs, remodeling, maintenance, project costs, and hiring professionals. Our contractor directory helps connect that research with businesses serving their communities.
A homeowner might begin by reading about kitchen remodeling costs, comparing contractor estimates, or understanding what a repair involves. When they need professional help, a local directory gives them somewhere to explore their options.
We’re building that resource in Dallas–Fort Worth—and inviting local contractors to become part of it.
What Does the Free Contractor Profile Include?
The free option provides a basic listing with:
- Your business name.
- Your business phone number.
It gives your company a starting presence in the Fixly Guide contractor directory without requiring a paid upgrade.
If you want a straightforward way to get listed while learning about the platform, this is the place to start.
The free listing is intentionally simple. Contractors who want a full profile and access to leads sent through the platform can select the paid option.
What Does the $49.99/month Upgrade Offer?
The $49.99/month upgrade is for contractors who want to move beyond a basic name-and-phone listing.
It provides:
- A full contractor profile to present your business more completely.
- Eligibility to receive homeowner leads sent through Fixly Guide.
The distinction matters: appearing in the directory and receiving leads distributed by the platform are different benefits.
A homeowner may discover your free listing and use its phone number to contact you. However, leads sent through Fixly Guide are reserved for eligible paid members.
| Feature | Free profile | $49.99/month upgrade |
|---|---|---|
| Business name | Included | Included |
| Business phone number | Included | Included |
| Full contractor profile | Not included | Included |
| Eligibility for leads sent through Fixly Guide | Not included | Included |
Review the upgrade page for the current billing schedule, detailed features, and participation requirements before purchasing.
Why Start With a Free Profile?
Give Your Business Another Place to Be Found
Your website, referrals, business profiles, and social accounts all contribute to your online presence.
A Fixly Guide listing adds another place where homeowners can encounter your business name and contact information.
It can complement the marketing you already do, whether most of your work comes from repeat customers, neighborhood recommendations, or your own website.
Make It Easier to Take the First Step
Contractors have enough decisions to make without committing to every new marketing opportunity immediately.
The free profile lets you establish a basic presence first. You can explore the platform and decide whether the paid option fits your goals.
There is a clear path forward: start with the free listing, then upgrade when you want the additional profile and lead features.
Join While We Build the DFW Network
Fixly Guide is growing its local contractor network across Dallas–Fort Worth.
We’re inviting businesses that serve the communities where homeowners live, maintain their properties, and plan improvements.
Whether you work throughout the Metroplex or focus on a smaller service area, your local experience can make your business relevant to the right homeowner.
Who Should Consider the $49.99/month Upgrade?
The paid option makes sense to consider when you want a fuller business presentation and eligibility for platform-distributed leads.
For example, you may want to upgrade if:
- You want more than a basic directory entry.
- You’re actively building your online business presence.
- You want homeowners to learn more about your company before contacting you.
- You want to be eligible for relevant homeowner inquiries sent through Fixly Guide.
- You’re prepared to respond professionally when an opportunity arrives.
Lead eligibility does not guarantee a specific number of inquiries or booked jobs. Availability depends on homeowner demand, project fit, service area, and program requirements.
The strongest approach is to treat Fixly Guide as another part of your marketing—not your only source of business.
Built Around the Questions Homeowners Ask
Contractors know that a productive project often starts with an informed customer.
Homeowners need to understand the scope, recognize that materials and labor affect pricing, and know what to ask before hiring someone.
Fixly Guide publishes practical information to support those conversations, including topics such as:
- Planning a realistic remodeling budget.
- Comparing contractor estimates.
- Understanding allowances and change orders.
- Identifying when a project needs professional help.
- Preparing questions for a contractor.
Our goal is to make the platform useful before a homeowner reaches out, as well as when they’re looking for a business to contact.
We’re also working to grow awareness of Fixly Guide through homeowner content and ongoing promotion. That effort supports the platform as a whole; it does not promise a particular level of exposure for any individual listing.
Which Contractors Can Join?
We’re inviting businesses across a wide range of residential trades and home services, including:
- General contracting and remodeling.
- Roofing and gutters.
- Plumbing and electrical.
- Heating and air conditioning.
- Landscaping and outdoor improvements.
- Concrete and masonry.
- Painting.
- Flooring and tile.
- Fencing.
- Windows, doors, and siding.
- Other home repair and maintenance services.
We’re looking for professionals who carry appropriate insurance, maintain any licenses required for their work, and take customer service seriously.
You do not need to offer every service. A clear specialty helps homeowners understand whether your business fits their project.
Make Your Business Information Count
Even a simple listing deserves attention.
Use the business name customers recognize. Keep it consistent with your other business information.
Provide a working business phone number. Choose a number you monitor and keep its voicemail professional.
Respond clearly. When someone contacts you, explain whether you handle that type of project and serve their location.
Keep your information current. Update your details when your contact information or business circumstances change.
If you upgrade, use the available profile fields to describe your actual services and experience. Specific information is more useful than unsupported claims about being the best or cheapest.
