Terms and Conditions

It is customers’ responsibility to familiarize with terms and conditions before requesting a service.

Cancellation of Service

When scheduling service with us, we specifically take time out a technicians day to call on your location and service your product. When you forget, cancel, or change your appointment without giving enough notice, we miss the opportunity to fill that appointment time, and clients on our wait list miss the opportunity to receive services which in turn results in a loss of revenue which cannot be recovered. Consequently, we reserve the right to charge equal to 100% of the service call amount for any appointment missed, canceled, or changed without 8 business hours notice or otherwise mutually agreed.

Damage Waivers

It is the responsibility of the customer to familiarize themselves with waivers we have in place surrounding the provision of any services we provide. These waivers are applicable for all work performed and are assumed and accepted once you allow our technician to commence provision of service.
