A repair request is different from an appointment

Estimate matching identifies up to three potential contractors. It does not promise three responses or quotes. Describe the symptoms, location, and urgency; contractors must confirm whether they can help.

An appointment option requires a contractor-posted, service-specific diagnostic or visit fee. Review what that fee covers and obtain appointment confirmation. A diagnostic visit does not include the cost of a repair or replacement unless explicitly stated.

For a replacement furnace, major electrical upgrade, or structural repair, request an assessment and a detailed written proposal instead of assuming that a diagnostic fee is the total job price.
