FAQs
How does your transparent pricing model work for heat repair in Friendsville?
Before any work begins, our technician performs a full diagnostic and generates a printed or emailed quote that lists every part, task, and fee line-by-line. You will see the exact labor rate, the cost of each replacement component, applicable taxes, and any discounts up front. The price shown is the price you pay—there are no hidden surcharges, weekend premiums, or surprise travel fees added when the job is finished.
What typically determines the final cost of a heater repair?
The price is influenced by four main factors: 1) the complexity of the fault (simple sensor replacement vs. blower-motor rebuild), 2) the make, model, and age of the equipment (parts for older or specialty systems may cost more), 3) the availability of replacement parts in our local Friendsville supply chain, and 4) the time required for safe installation and system testing. We itemize these factors in your quote so you can see exactly where every dollar goes.
Do you charge for diagnostics, and can that fee be applied toward the repair?
We charge a flat, low-cost diagnostic fee that covers the trip, system inspection, and detailed fault analysis. If you approve the repair during the same visit, 100 % of that diagnostic fee is credited toward the job total, effectively making the assessment free.
How fast can you get my heat running again if it fails after hours?
We provide 24/7 emergency service in Friendsville and surrounding areas. Calls received before 10 PM are usually answered with same-day on-site arrival; overnight calls are prioritized for first thing the next morning. Our fully stocked service vehicles carry the most common furnace and heat-pump parts, allowing us to complete 85 % of repairs on the first visit.
Are your technicians qualified and insured to work on my system?
Yes. Every technician is NATE-certified, EPA-licensed for refrigerant handling, and undergoes regular factory training on the latest gas, electric, and heat-pump technologies. We carry full liability and workers’ compensation insurance, and we obtain all permits required by Friendsville codes before performing major repairs.
What kind of warranty do you offer on heat repairs?
All replacement parts come with the manufacturer’s warranty, typically 1–5 years depending on the component. In addition, we provide our own 12-month labor warranty: if the part we installed fails within a year due to workmanship, we will repair or replace it at no cost to you, including labor and travel. You will receive written warranty documentation along with your paid invoice.
