As a small business , I appreciate that when making decisions about what to spend money on the initial cost of any piece of kit can often seem daunting.
However, using HelpMeFix.io may actually save money in the long run by preventing small issues from escalating into larger, more expensive problems.
Preventing Costly Repairs
HelpMeFix.io offers a comprehensive repair diagnostic and triage solution that leverages advanced AI and video technology. This means that many issues can be diagnosed and resolved remotely, without the need for an on-site visit. By addressing problems early, you can prevent minor issues from becoming major repairs, which can be significantly more costly. For example, a small leak that is quickly identified and fixed can prevent extensive water damage that would require a much more expensive repair.
Cost Comparison
Traditional service calls can be quite expensive. For instance, an out-of-hours call charge can be around £220 In contrast, using HelpMeFix.io during the same period can cost under £50, saving you nearly £170 per call-out1. This substantial saving is achieved through the efficient use of AI diagnostics and video triage, which reduce the need for physical visits.
Savings for Landlords
Landlords can particularly benefit from HelpMeFix.io. By integrating this service into your tenancy managment , maintenance service it will not only improves tenant satisfaction but also reduces maintenance costs. The savings from avoiding large repair bills can be passed on to tenants or reinvested into property improvements, making it a win-win situation.

How much will it actually cost YOU ?
There are no set up costs. All costs could be re-charged to your landlords anyway with a small increase in their management fee. A monthly "maintenance fee" which could be as little as £1 a month to them. Or there is the option to charge them per job which would be considerably less that discussed already.
You may also want to consider offering it as a VIP level of service and incorporating it that way.
I am more than happy to discuss what options are more appropriate for your business model and also what will offer the best service to your landlords and tenants. For me it was a no brainer
Conclusion
While the upfront cost of HelpMeFix.io might seem high, the long-term savings and benefits make it a worthwhile investment. By preventing small issues from becoming major problems and reducing the need for expensive service calls, HelpMeFix.io proves to be a cost-effective solution for both tenants and landlords
