Fixes minute tips (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mends

'fixes' is the definition.
(I know this)

'minute tips' is the wordplay.
'minute' becomes 'm' (abbreviation).
'tips' becomes 'ends' (I've seen this in another clue).
'm'+'ends'='MENDS'

(Other definitions for mends that I've seen before include "Fixes" , "Repairs, darns" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
