Home repairs in Oakland

The faucet drips, the breaker trips. Get help from people who've fixed it before, and pass yours on.

Something in every home is quietly broken, and someone nearby has fixed exactly that. Post a photo of the mystery valve and a neighbor names the part in minutes. When you're the one who knows, the questions find you too.

Oakland has always run on word of mouth, and Peachy is built for exactly that. Say you're looking in Oakland and posts from people across the town reach you, from Temescal to Fruitvale to the Lake. Say how far you'll travel and the rest of the East Bay comes with it.

Say it in your own words

You describe what you’re looking for the way you’d tell a friend, and your Feed shows the posts from your friends, mutuals and communities that match.

“Show me repair questions I might be able to answer. I'm handy.”

“Surface plumber and electrician recommendations near Oakland.”

“Tell me when a neighbor needs to borrow a tool. I have all of them.”

How it works

  1. Join in a minute

    Sign up with your phone number. Peachy is a chat app: your people, your group chats and your communities.

  2. Filter it, if you like

    Your Feed starts as everything, newest first. Turn on a paragraph filter, a few plain words like the examples above, place included, and only matching posts show. Turn it off any time.

  3. See what matters to you

    Your Feed shows posts from your friends, mutuals and communities: all of them, or only the ones that match your paragraph. Public posts from everyone else stay under Public, and your private chats are never part of it.
