Assessment and agreed work
The same symptom can have several causes. Agree the diagnosis charge, tested components and approval limit before parts are fitted. Mains electrical work must be allocated to an appropriately qualified person.
What to check at handover
Request the fault findings, parts fitted and operating checks, including the safety devices covered by the job. Confirm any remaining mechanical or electrical work and written warranty terms.
Questions before you book
Does a gate that will not open need a new motor?
Not necessarily. The supply, battery, controls and gate movement need assessment before a complete replacement is justified.
Is the call-out credited against a repair?
A credit is not automatic. Confirm the attendance charge and any credit in the written quote.
Are prices different in Northcliff?
