Fixit 34

Your Home Looked After While You’re Away

Do you own a holiday home, second residence, rental property, or family house in the Montpellier area that sits empty for weeks or months at a time?

Fixit34 provides reliable property checks and practical support for owners who live elsewhere in France or abroad. Whether you are in Paris, the UK, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany, Hungary, or anywhere else, you can have peace of mind knowing that someone local is keeping an eye on your property.

I personally visit your property, check that everything is in order, and send you a detailed report with photos.

Regular Property Inspections

During each visit, I can:

  • Check doors, windows, shutters, and locks
  • Look for signs of intrusion or vandalism
  • Inspect for water leaks, dampness, mold, or storm damage
  • Check electricity, internet, and alarm systems
  • Verify that appliances appear to be functioning normally
  • Air out the property if requested
  • Read utility meters
  • Collect mail and parcels
  • Check garden, terrace, fences, and outdoor areas
  • Verify that heating, air conditioning, or ventilation systems are operating correctly
  • Check pool equipment and basic pool condition
  • Take photos and send a detailed report

After each visit, you receive an update so you always know the condition of your property.

Before Your Arrival

Arriving at a closed house after several months can be disappointing.

Before you arrive, I can:

  • Open and air the property
  • Turn on heating or air conditioning
  • Check water and electricity
  • Verify internet connectivity
  • Assemble furniture or equipment if needed
  • Perform small repairs
  • Ensure everything is ready for your stay

You arrive to a home that is comfortable and ready to enjoy.

Local Presence for Repairs and Deliveries

One of the biggest challenges of owning a second home is being unavailable when something needs attention.

I can:

  • Meet delivery drivers
  • Receive furniture or appliance deliveries
  • Open the property for artisans and technicians
  • Supervise repair work
  • Take photos before, during, and after interventions
  • Report progress and issues
  • Help communicate with local service providers

This can save you unnecessary travel and prevent costly delays.

Small Repairs & Technical Assistance

Unlike many concierge companies, I am also a hands-on technician.

I can often solve problems immediately without requiring another contractor.

Examples include:

Home Maintenance

  • Furniture assembly
  • Curtain rods and shelving installation
  • Minor plumbing fixes
  • Door and lock adjustments
  • Basic electrical replacements
  • Garden and outdoor maintenance

Computer & Technology Support

  • Wi-Fi troubleshooting
  • Internet setup
  • Printer configuration
  • Smart TV setup
  • Security camera systems
  • Home networking
  • Computer troubleshooting

For many owners, having one trusted person who can handle both property and technology issues is a major advantage.

Emergency Response

If a neighbour, alarm company, or service provider reports a problem, I can quickly visit the property and assess the situation.

Possible emergencies include:

  • Water leaks
  • Storm damage
  • Power outages
  • Alarm activations
  • Internet failures
  • Access issues
  • Suspicious activity

You’ll receive photos and a clear explanation of the situation, allowing you to decide the next steps.

Why Choose Fixit34?
