Mr. Fix-It Professional Handyman Services

What Mr. Fix-It Professional Handyman Services does

Mr. Fix-It Professional Handyman Services is a privately held, founder-owned general contractor and handyman service business based in Bakersfield, California, founded in 2008 by owner Jim Witmyer, who brings more than 25 years of trade experience. The company delivers a broad portfolio of residential and commercial services organized around three core lines — Repair (sinks, windows, switches, drywall, doors, hardware), Remodel (kitchen and bath renovations, flooring, wall removal), and Construction (storage sheds, decks, closets, walls) — supplemented by 11 ancillary service modules covering painting, carpentry, plumbing, electrical, doors and windows, walls and ceilings, flooring, garage improvements, kitchen and bath remodeling, and outdoor work. The company positions itself as a "one call does it all" one-stop shop, eliminating the need for customers to coordinate multiple specialty contractors on compound projects.

The business operates on a direct-to-consumer model with no proprietary software, technology platform, or AI/ML capability; service delivery relies on an in-house team of technicians dispatched to customer locations, with customer intake handled via phone, text, email, and a website estimate form. Pricing follows three structures: hourly Standard Pricing ($94.50 residential, $109.50 commercial after the first hour), Flat Fee Pricing for common installations (ceiling fans, faucets, toilets, TV mounting, attic ladders), and Bid Pricing for large non-standard projects such as kitchen remodels and deck construction. A 1-year warranty applies to company-supplied materials, and the company holds California General Contractor License #940435 with full insurance coverage.

The customer base spans three primary segments — homeowners, businesses, and property managers (including named accounts such as Taco Bell, Marshalls, JLC Properties, RE/MAX, Frontier Real Estate Services, and Venture Real Estate Services) — served primarily in Bakersfield and Kern County with extended service areas in Delano, Taft, Shafter, Arvin, Tejon, and Wasco. Marketing is conducted through a multi-channel organic social presence (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, Google+), the company website, customer reviews, and referral networks. The company has earned two reader-voted "Bakersfield's Best Handyman Service" recognitions (2022 and 2026) and operates as an 11-50 employee SMB with no disclosed funding, M&A activity, or revenue figures.

Emerging players

• Thumbtack: Online marketplace that matches local handymen and contractors with homeowners — comparable on customer base and project types even though Thumbtack itself does not perform the work. Important competitive channel for Mr. Fix-It's direct-to-consumer demand.
• TaskRabbit (IKEA Group): Tech-enabled marketplace for handyman, assembly, mounting, and small home-repair tasks. Comparable on residential home-repair scope and customer persona; increasingly relevant to how homeowners discover and book handyman help.
• The Patch Boys: National franchise specializing in drywall repair, plaster patching, and ceiling/texture restoration. Represents a specialized competitor that takes a slice of Mr. Fix-It's repair-service pie with focused marketing and franchise scale.

Others

• HomeAdvisor (Angi Leads): Lead-generation platform connecting homeowners with local service professionals including handymen. Functions as a customer-acquisition channel and a structural competitor to Mr. Fix-it's organic, referral-driven model.
• Real Property Management (Neighborly): National property-management franchise that frequently refers maintenance, make-ready, and punch-list work to local handyman providers like Mr. Fix-It. Adjacent ecosystem participant rather than a competitor, but central to the property-manager customer segment.

Direct peers

• Handyman Matters: Franchise handyman services company offering residential and commercial repair, maintenance, and remodeling with bonded/insured craftsmen. Same value proposition ("one call for everything"), same customer segments (homeowners, property managers, businesses), making it a direct structural peer.
• Ace Handyman Services: Multi-state handyman franchise offering residential repair, maintenance, and small remodels under the Ace brand. Closely comparable business model (licensed, insured, in-house technicians, hourly and flat-fee pricing) and a direct franchise competitor concept for Mr. Fix-It to scale nationally.

Regional players

• HomeSmart From Xennial Services / ClockWise Handyman: Regional handyman and home-services providers of similar scope to Mr. Fix-It. Comparable as local competitors in their respective metros and useful peers for benchmarking pricing, scheduling, and service delivery.

Broad incumbents

• Mr. Handyman (Neighborly brand): National franchised handyman brand operating across hundreds of U.S. markets under Neighborly. Directly comparable on service scope (repair, maintenance, remodels) but at vastly greater scale; competes with Mr. Fix-It wherever Mr. Handyman franchisees operate in California.
• Angi (Angie) Leads / Angi Services: Large digital marketplace and (via Handy) provider of home services including handyman work. Not a like-for-like service operator, but it shapes customer acquisition and competitive pricing for local handyman businesses like Mr. Fix-It.
