Pricing and billing

How much does it cost?
$100/h for everything: troubleshooting, setup, lessons, on-site or remote. There's no different rate depending on the device or how hard the problem is. Minimum billing is one hour; beyond that, time is counted in [TBD] increments. Applicable taxes: [TBD]. We give you a time estimate before starting.
Is there a travel fee?
Yes: $75 per on-site visit, a flat amount added to the $100/h. It covers the round trip and parking. There is no travel fee for a remote session. Conditions outside the usual service area: [TBD].
Do you charge for the diagnosis?
The first call is free: tell us what's happening and we'll say honestly whether it's something we can fix, roughly how long it should take, and whether a visit is needed at all. Once the work starts, diagnosis time is part of the job and is billed at the normal $100/h rate, like everything else.
What payment methods do you accept?
Accepted payment methods: [TBD]. Payment is made at the end of the visit, once you've seen the result. You receive an itemized receipt showing the time billed and the travel fee, if one applies.
What if the problem isn't fixed?
Some problems come down to failed hardware or an outage at a provider, and no amount of on-site work will fix them. When that happens we tell you quickly rather than running up hours: you'll know what's wrong, what a repair would cost elsewhere, and whether it's worth it. Our billing policy when a problem can't be resolved: [TBD].
