Who does it
A service provider holding a Virginia DPOR contractor licence with the plumbing (PLB) specialty, with technicians who hold a Virginia tradesman licence or work under a licensed tradesman's supervision. Gas water heaters are handled under Virginia's gas-fitting licence rules.
The provider's licence number, class and specialty are on your quote and receipt.
How the price works
Defined jobs, such as replacing a tap, have a fixed all-in price. Faults that need finding first show the diagnostic fee up front, credited toward the repair if you go ahead.
Anything beyond what you booked is a written change request you accept in the app first.
How payment works
At booking, Stripe saves and verifies your card. Nothing is charged. When a service provider accepts your job, the amount shows as a pending hold on your card. You are charged only after the finished work passes Fixxo's quality check, and you are not charged while a problem you raise is open.
Written contracts. Where Virginia rules require a written contract for residential repair work, you receive the service provider's contract, with its licence number, class and specialties, to sign in the app before the work starts.
Questions
Plumbing questions
When does plumbing open?
After cleaning. There is no date yet. Join the list below and we'll email you when plumbing opens in your ZIP code.
Is a water heater plumbing or HVAC?
Plumbing, on Fixxo. Gas water heaters are handled under Virginia's gas-fitting rules, and replacing a gas-fired water heater in Fairfax County needs a permit, which the provider arranges.
What if the plumber finds something else?
They cannot change the price at your door. They send a written change request in the app with its price, and nothing extra happens unless you accept it.
What if water is leaking right now?
Fixxo is not open yet, so call a local plumber. If you smell gas, leave the property and call 911 first.
