Terms and
Conditions
SERVICE RATES
There are various factors that decide the length of time it
takes to assess and complete an installation/ repair. Technicians/Installers
vary in their level of experience, skill, preparedness, and speed, resulting in
a potential variance between the time each technician/installer takes to
complete a repair/installation, thereby resulting in a disadvantage of higher
labour cost for some customers on some repairs/installations. To prevent that
and ensure consistently fair and equitable charges for all customers always,
HARGTA charges FLAT RATE LABOUR
from the Major Appliance Repair Rate Guide. THIS PROTECTS THE CUSTOMER
FROM PAYING MORE FOR THE LENGTH OF TIME OR NUMBER OF TRIPS THE
TECHNICIAN/INSTALLER TAKES TO COMPLETE THE REPAIR/INSTALLATION.
No Hidden Fees
Our service is charged out in four possible categories where
applicable.
1. SERVICE CALL/INSPECTION/DIAGNOSTIC
CHARGE
Service Call/Inspection/Diagnostic

the service/installation address, the inspection/diagnosis, and a written estimate
for the repair/installation. This fee is due upon completion of the
diagnosis/inspection and is applied as a credit to the total cost of the repair/installation
if the customer approves the quote/estimate. If the customer does not want to
go ahead with the repair/installation, the fee is the cost of our service. The SERVICE
CALL/INSPECTION/DIAGNOSTIC CHARGE is guaranteed for a period of 30 calendar
days from its completion date.

90 Day labour guarantee
Labour is guaranteed for 90 calendar days from the date of repair completion (sixty days above industry standard). The 90-calendar day labour guarantee is limited to the original workmanship of the repair completed by HARGTA technician, and is not a whole product warranty. Should the appliance malfunction within the 90-calendar day period after it was repaired, simply contact our office before the 90-day period has elapsed and we will be happy to dispatch a technical representative to investigate the malfunction(s) at no charge. You will be quoted for all costs to repair the issue if it is caused by a different reason than the one we repaired.
Should a HARGTA technical representative investigate the malfunction(s) and find secondary issue(s) unrelated to the workmanship performed by HARGTA, s/he will provide you with a full report which outlines the fault(s) contributing to the secondary failure and provide you with a quote on the cost(s) associated with the repair. Repairs unrelated to the original fault which occur within the 90-calendar day labour warranty are chargeable to the customer at our regular flat rate fee.
