If Parts Are Needed
If the contractor doesn’t have parts that are needed to complete the repair, we’ll do our best to get them as quickly as possible. Usually, parts are easy to acquire, however, sometimes there are delays in securing parts or equipment.
The contractor will set up an appointment to complete the repair once the parts have been secured. There is no additional service fee charge to complete the repair.
