FAQs

• What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
  The only pricing system we have is a starting or base price of $159 for most services. This is based on $75 to come out to the job site and $75/hour with a one hour minimum. Most problems can be remedied within an hour. In order to provide a level of security and to ensure reasonable legitimacy, we will ask you to provide a credit card or PayPal payment at the time you schedule an evaluation or service call. This charge is non-refundable, but will be applied to any future costs incurred. This service call includes limited travel, evaluation, diagnosis and a detailed, written estimate upon request AND help locating parts if needed. We travel anywhere in Ohio but we also have a mileage charge of $.33/mile with the first 50 miles free. When you secure an appointment with your credit card, 100 miles of travel are included with the estimate that you receive if the work cannot be completed same day.
