We now offer capped price servicing on most makes of coffee machines. This is the most you will pay for a service. For repairs only requiring minor parts, the service is capped at $180, for services requiring major parts, the service is capped at $280. If your machine is older than 5 years or is not a brand we support with capped price servicing, we offer a inexpensive $45 inspection service. This allows our technician to get your machine on the bench and go over it and give you a precise quotation for its repair. This cost is then deductible from your service.
