I charge $85.00 for a stand alone appliance. (Additional fee for Wall Ovens,  36” and larger stoves, stacked washer and dryers, and all in one laundry stations). The Additional fee is $50-100.00 depending on difficulty or accessibility of the appliance.,such as appliances located in or closet or enclosed structure, or a small area with limited space to move.

I guarantee the final diagnosis is 100% correct. sometimes my original diagnosis will be incorrect. However, I will never charge for a diagnosis if I cannot be 100% certain. I will start over and diagnose a machine until I find the root of your problem. No fee if I cannot prove 100% what your problem is.

As of April 15, 2024 I have been forced to have signed agreements for all Diagnosis jobs. As of August 30, 2024 OEM parts warranties have changed to 90 days.

Example of the agreement is below.

Waiver of Damages When Moving Appliance

You understand there is an inherent risk when moving appliances.

Excepting for cases of gross, clearly proven, and explicitly identifiable negligence by the technician, you promise to hold harmless both the technician and LA Repair Tech, its principals, agents, and employees from any and all damages, harms, or liability that may result from such an occurrence. By allowing the technician to commence work, you explicitly waive the right to any contrary claim.

Waiver of Damages from Failed Cooling Equipment

You understand that, like any machinery, refrigeration equipment consists of a multiplicity of complex components, any of which can fail without warning, and that any effort to service and/or repair the same carries inherent risks. Diagnoses are not always straightforward, and, even when carefully performed, repair this equipment and/or service work may involve imperfections that result in failure of the machinery to perform as intended. Such failures may lead to food spoilage, discomfort, inconvenience, and (particularly in commercial contexts) even loss of revenue as associated with canceled or failed events, inability to service customers, etc. You acknowledge that, by undertaking to service and/or repair your equipment, LA Repair Tech is not accepting responsibility for any such risks.
