Dear native teachers,
How's everything going..
I have a question about have or get something done. (active) not (passive)

>> Do you know where I can have someone fix my bike? ((or)) Fine, but I think this is more common in AmE.

>> Do you know where I can have someone to fix my bike? No. BUT - Do you know where I can get someone to fix my bike? is fine, especially in BrE.

Which one is correct??? (infinitive or preposition)? or both are ok..
Why?? :-?:

Thanks a lot :-D
