Frequently Asked Questions

eFixMate connects you with verified, skilled technicians for home and office services in just a few steps. Browse the service you need, choose a convenient time slot, and confirm your booking. We assign a background-verified technician to your appointment. The technician arrives at your address, completes the work, and you pay on completion. Every booking is backed by eFixMate's service warranty.

Once your booking is confirmed, open the eFixMate app or website and go to My Bookings. You can see the current status — Confirmed, Technician Assigned, En Route, or Completed. When the technician is on the way, you receive a notification with their live location and ETA. You can also call or message the technician directly through the app.

Every technician on eFixMate goes through a four-step verification before accepting bookings: (1) Government-issued ID check — Aadhaar, PAN, or Driving Licence; (2) Police background verification or character certificate; (3) Trade certification check — ITI, NCVT, or equivalent with minimum 2 years of hands-on experience; (4) In-person skill assessment and safety training. Technicians who do not meet all criteria are not activated. For full details, visit our Safety & Verification page.

If your technician does not arrive within 30 minutes of the scheduled time without prior notice, contact eFixMate support through the app or helpline. We will immediately reassign another verified technician or reschedule your appointment at no extra charge. If we cannot arrange a replacement within a reasonable time, you are entitled to a full refund to your original payment method.

Refunds are processed in these situations: (a) Booking cancelled before technician assignment — full refund in 5–7 business days; (b) Technician does not arrive — full refund in 5–7 business days; (c) Service quality issue acknowledged by eFixMate — partial or full refund. Refunds are credited back to the original payment method. For prepaid bookings, the refund is initiated within 48 hours and takes 5–7 banking days to reflect. See our Refund Policy for complete terms.

eFixMate accepts UPI (all major apps including GPay, PhonePe, Paytm), debit and credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, RuPay), net banking, and cash on service completion for select categories. All digital payments are processed securely through Razorpay. eFixMate never stores your card details or UPI PIN.

Warranty periods by category: General electrical repairs and plumbing — 7 days; Appliance installation, AC service, fan and light installation, painting, and carpentry — 30 days. The warranty covers labour only and excludes parts, consumables, or damage caused after service completion. Full details are in our Warranty Policy.
