Pricing and payment
How much does a repair cost?
Every repair is priced per job. After the technician diagnoses the problem you receive a written quote for the whole job, parts and labour together, and nothing starts until you agree. The price depends on the part and the problem, so the exact figure comes after the diagnosis. What happens after the inspection
What is the service call fee?
For household appliances the service call is $120. It covers the technician’s visit, the diagnosis and the written quote. If you go ahead with the repair, the $120 is waived and you pay only for parts and labour. If you decide not to repair, the $120 covers the visit. If it turns out to be something we cannot fix, there is no charge. The fee explained in detail
Do you charge by the hour?
No. We never charge by the hour. The quote you receive is one price for the whole job.

How can I help the technician before the visit?
