Radio station Fix builds profitable community for UK builders

17.07.2025 - United Kingdom

The UK’s first radio station for builders Fix is now turning over up to £8m in revenue, according to CEO Louis Timpany. He said the station has seen a five-fold increase in revenue since 2022 when it gained a licence to broadcast nationally on DAB. The station was previously only available in London. The station claims to average 724,856 listeners per week, citing Nielsen figures Timpany also said that although Fix limits its target audience to tradespeople, having a specific target had benefits. “Radio is… all about community. We are embracing that and we’re seeing that it’s being successful. Now although we are a national product, because we are so heavily targeted towards a specific community, they can get that sense of community through us”.
