FAQs
What does "upfront pricing" mean for your heating and air-conditioning services in Friendsville?
Upfront pricing means you know the total cost of your HVAC repair, maintenance, or installation before any work starts. After we inspect the system and diagnose the issue, we give you a written, flat-rate quote that includes labor, parts, taxes, and disposal fees. There are no hidden charges, overtime mark-ups, or surprise add-ons when the job is finished.
How do you calculate the upfront price for my HVAC project?
Our technician performs a thorough inspection and uses standardized flat-rate pricing guides that factor in the specific equipment model, required parts, and the estimated labor time. We then add any applicable local permits or refrigerant recovery fees and present you with a single, all-inclusive figure. That price is locked in once you authorize the work, even if we run into unexpected complications.
Is the diagnostic fee included in the upfront price?
Yes. The service call and diagnostic fee are bundled into the upfront quote we provide. If you approve the repair, the diagnostic charge is rolled into the total so you pay only the flat price we quoted. If you choose not to proceed, you are responsible only for the diagnostic fee that was disclosed before the visit.
Will I pay more if the repair or installation takes longer than expected?
No. Because our pricing is task-based rather than hourly, the amount you agree to at the beginning is the amount you pay at the end. If the job takes longer than planned—or we need to make an extra trip for a part—those additional labor hours are on us, not on your invoice.
Do you offer financing or payment plans with your upfront pricing?
Absolutely. For larger projects such as system replacements or major ductwork, we partner with reputable lenders to provide low-interest financing and 0% promotional plans (subject to credit approval). You’ll see the monthly payment options alongside the total upfront price so you can choose the plan that best fits your budget.
Does the upfront pricing apply only inside Friendsville city limits?
Our upfront, flat-rate pricing covers all of Friendsville and nearby communities such as Louisville, Greenback, and Maryville. If your home is outside our standard service radius, we’ll disclose any modest travel surcharge before scheduling, so you still have a clear, binding price in writing before we head to your door.
