History
The Fix It Company is an Evanston, IL company in business for 25+ years. We are 100% woman owned with a crew of 5. We were originally servicing commercial buildings as contract janitors/cleaning when clients begun asking us to to light - heavy handy man work and The Fix It Company was born.
Specialties
The Fix It company began in 1987 when owner Linda A. Barr, newly single mother, responsible for two teenage daughters found herself cash-strapped. She made a business for herself, offering a service always in demand; cleaning. Her first venture, a commercial janitorial service in the north Chicago area, cleaned offices at night and bars after closing. In the morning she would return to her Evanston home and take care of her girls, making sure they were ready for school. When they left, she would sleep.
