What Hemfixarna does

Hemfixarna (legally Hemfixarna Nordic AB) is a Stockholm-based home services marketplace founded in 2016 and operating as a subsidiary under KEYTO Group. The company connects Swedish homeowners and residents with a network of 1,600 certified independent contractors known as "Fixare," offering professional home services including furniture assembly, technical support, handyman work, appliance installation, construction and building, plumbing and HVAC, electrical services, and painting and wallpapering. Services are delivered at customer homes across Sweden, with evening and weekend availability, and the company administers Swedish RUT and ROT tax deductions on behalf of customers through its invoicing process.

The platform operates a direct-to-consumer model with bookings made via phone (0770-220 720) or website, supported by referral partnerships with major Swedish retailers and telecom providers including IKEA, Netonnet, Byggmax, Power, Tele2, Telenor, Samsung, Bredband2, and Nordsjö. Pricing combines a fast-pricing model starting at 399 SEK per home visit with quote-based pricing for larger construction projects. Specialty vertical sub-brands (Rörfixarna, Elfixarna, Byggfixarna, Målarfixarna) organize certified trade professionals across plumbing, electrical, construction, and painting. In August 2024, Hemfixarna acquired BraByggare from Beijer Byggmaterial and Villaägarnas Riksförbund, adding a quote-based contractor marketplace for larger projects and a planned joint quote platform in 2024.

The business model is a transactional services marketplace monetized through per-job service fees, with Hemfixarna handling billing, invoicing, and RUT/ROT tax deduction administration. To date, the platform has facilitated over 347,120 completed jobs with a 4.7 out of 5 average customer rating. The company employs 251-500 internal staff alongside its network of independent contractor Fixare, and is expanding into the B2B segment through a partnership with Smartify targeting commercial customers and property managers.

Direct peers

• Handy: Online platform for booking pre-priced home services including cleaning, furniture assembly, and handyman work. Closely comparable to Hemfixarna's fixed-price-from-399-SEK model and direct-to-consumer booking flow for home visits.
• Thumbtack: US-based marketplace that matches customers with local professionals across more than 1,000 categories, with deep penetration in home improvement, handyman, plumbing, electrical, and painting — the exact verticals Hemfixarna operates in via its Fixare network and specialist sub-brands.
• Bark.com: Global (UK-headquartered) marketplace where customers post jobs and local professionals reply with quotes. Closely matches Hemfixarna's expanded BraByggare quote-based project model for larger construction and home services jobs.
• TaskRabbit: Operates a marketplace connecting consumers with independent handymen and tradespeople for home services including furniture assembly, mounting, moving help, and minor home repairs. Most directly comparable to Hemfixarna on the gig-marketplace model, contractor (Tasker) certification, and per-job pricing structure.
• MyBuilder: UK-based online marketplace that connects homeowners with vetted tradespeople across dozens of home improvement categories. Highly comparable marketplace model, posting/quoting flow, and category mix (handyman, plumbing, electrical, painting, building) to Hemfixarna.
• Local Heroes (by British Gas): UK marketplace by British Gas/Centrica connecting customers with local trades for plumbing, electrical, heating, and home repairs. Highly comparable on the certified-pro, fixed-price model and the parent-group strategic backing (analogous to Hemfixarna's KEYTO Group relationship).

Broad incumbents

• Angi (formerly Angie's List / HomeAdvisor): Public, scaled US home services lead-generation and pro-matching platform covering plumbing, electrical, handyman, and renovation. Operates broader than Hemfixarna (lead-gen + marketplace) but is highly comparable as a national brand monetizing the same homeowner demand for certified trades.

Regional players

• Zaask: Nordic-origin online marketplace (operating in Sweden, Portugal, and others) connecting customers with vetted local service professionals for home services. Same Swedish market, similar marketplace structure, and same customer type (homeowners) as Hemfixarna.
• Hemfrid: Swedish household services provider specializing in home cleaning, but with growing adjacent offerings. Direct regional comparable to Hemfixarna in Sweden, sharing the same Swedish customer base, RUT-deduction dynamics, and demand for vetted in-home professionals.

Emerging players

• Helpling: European online marketplace for household services including cleaning and home help, with operations in multiple European markets. Adjacent to Hemfixarna's home-services platform concept with overlap in recurring household-service demand.
