Why a repair company writes these
Half of what is below costs us work. Telling you to service the AC in March instead of June means you are not desperate when you call, which means you are not in a position to be overcharged. Telling you what to ask before letting a technician in is a test we have to keep passing.
We would rather be the people you already trust when something breaks than the people you found in a panic.
Something broken at home?
Send us a message and we will tell you the price and when we can come. No charge for asking.
