ProFix by Alex is a two-person Winthrop handyman shop run by Aliaksandr Petrukhnov that's built a strong track record on Thumbtack — 4.9 stars from 42 ratings, 93% of them five-star, current Top Pro status, and 82 hires through the platform over six years in business. The thread running through the reviews is speed and reliability on assembly and install jobs: a full playset and swing set taken apart, moved and rebuilt in a single morning (a 2025 review), IKEA furniture put together carefully enough to protect the floors and on short notice, and a home gym assembled with what one customer called a 'smooth experience.' Several reviewers mention Alex showing up early or exactly on time — in a 2023 review, one client described him arriving ahead of their own request before a holiday deadline. Beyond assembly, the Thumbtack listing covers electrical and wiring repair, holiday lighting, picture hanging, TV mounting, lawn mower repair and general appliance work, and the profile carries a completed background check under Petrukhnov's own name. For anything beyond straightforward assembly or mounting work, it's worth confirming scope up front, since the detailed reviews here center on install-type jobs rather than repairs.
Alex arrived early with the tools and hardware needed to finish the job. He completed the job quicker than expected. I highly recommend him!
Alex was great! He did a full playset/swing set disassembly, transport, and re-assembly and I couldn't have had a better experience working with him. It was a big job and he did the whole thing in one morning. I couldn't have been pleased and would highly recommend him.
Alex did a great job with assembling IKEA furniture. He was exactly on time, was careful not to damage our floors, and made quick work of it. He was also able to take our job on short notice! He's a consummate professional and I'd hire him again any time we need him.
Very smooth experience having Alex put together my home gym. He was very pleasant and professional. Would gladly hire him again for a future project!
I had requested Alex to show up a bit earlier than we initially confirmed. He made it early, got straight to work, was super quick, professional, skilled, and a gentleman all around. Grateful he came through and helped me so efficiently me what I need to dry before the holidays!
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Profix By Alex. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
A day rate replaces the task list — usually the better deal once the list gets long.
