iLikeTo Fix earns a referral fee when a reader calls a contractor through a phone number on this site. We are paid by the contractor, never by you.

What that means

When you call a number listed on one of our pages, that call is tracked, and if it connects we receive a fee from the contractor or the network that routes it. You pay nothing extra. The price you are quoted is the price you would have been quoted had you found that contractor yourself.

What it does not change

It does not change what we tell you. Every page on this site is written to answer the question you arrived with. Where the honest answer is that the problem is a ten-minute fix you can handle yourself, we say so — and those pages carry no phone number at all.

That is not a courtesy. It is the whole point. A site that puts a call button on every page regardless of the problem is not diagnosing anything, it is routing traffic. We would rather you trust the page you land on next time.

Our diagnostic tools are built the same way. On What supply pipe is in your walls?, three of the six answers end with “you can settle this one yourself, no call needed.” No contractor pays to remove those.

What we are not

• We are not a contractor. We do not perform work, hold a licence, or supervise anyone who does.
• We do not accept payment to rank a contractor higher, remove a warning, or soften an assessment.
• We do not sell your details. A call routed through this site connects you to a contractor; it does not add you to a marketing list we control.
• We do not vouch for any individual contractor. Check the licence, check the insurance, and get the quote in writing.

Cost figures on this site

Where we quote a price range it is a guide, not a quote. Real cost moves with your region, the age and access of the property, and how much has to be opened up to reach the problem. Use our ranges to judge whether a quote you have been given is reasonable — not as a number to hold a contractor to.

Safety

Nothing here is a substitute for a licensed professional. Gas smells, standing water near live electrical, sewage inside the living space and suspected carbon monoxide are emergencies — leave the property and call the utility or emergency services, not us.
