Policies & Terms of Service
Thank you for taking the time to read and follow our policies; we value the relationships we have with our clients and strive for mutual respect in each interaction. Continuing on our site constitutes acceptance of all below policies. Failure to familiarize yourself with these policies beforehand does not exempt you from complying with our terms. We do not bend/break our policies as a result of bullying or threats. We make every effort to be accommodating, but as a growing business, we are compelled to safeguard our interests to the fullest extent possible. Now, down to the details:
Payment
Clients are required to prepay in order to schedule appointments. We do not provide free diagnostics and cannot accommodate requests for payment after diagnosis. This prepayment ensures coverage for our technicians' transportation, parts, and labor, as well as confirms details such as location, thereby avoiding any delays in service. In the event of unpaid invoices, a $100 fee will be incurred for each day the payment is late, with no grace period provided. Failure to make timely payments may result in the filing of a mechanical lein. We encourage clients to reach out to us to make payment arrangements if needed, as we are willing to work together to resolve any issues amicably. Please note that failure to adhere to our payment policies may lead to the forfeiture of your appointment and prepayment.
Refunds
Londos, LLC maintains a strict no-refund policy; however, we may provide store credit when appropriate, valid for one year from the date of issuance. In the event of a dispute, clients have the option to involve their bank, and Square will furnish comprehensive documentation, including signed/clicked contracts, invoices, text/email communications, photographic evidence, and other relevant materials. We treat fraudulent or reckless disputes with utmost seriousness and retain the right to decline service to clients with a history of such unethical behavior. All determinations regarding refunds and store credits rest solely at the discretion of Londos, LLC.
Blue Hat Commitment
The initiation of payment for an in-person diagnostic service call activates this guarantee. We commit to guaranteeing all completed labor specifically detailed in the service invoice for a period of 30 days to a reasonable extent. However, this guarantee becomes VOID under the following circumstances: if any repairs or maintenance are conducted by a third party, if your account balance is delinquent, or if the issue is caused by acts of nature such as natural disasters, weather events, or critters. The exercise of this guarantee is solely at the discretion of Londos, LLC.
Scope of Service
While we are committed to providing detailed descriptions and transparent communications regarding our services, the nature of repairs may introduce some level of ambiguity. The interpretation of any such ambiguity is solely at the discretion of Londos, LLC, irrespective of any misunderstanding on the client's part. Service specifics are easily accessible on your invoice receipt and our booking platform. Furthermore, service and product descriptions are explicitly outlined on invoices and receipts for your reference. Any adjustments to our services will be promptly communicated to clients and represent the initial contract in all intents and purposes. By accepting our services, the client hereby waives their right to initiate chargeback requests that claim services were not as described, given the availability of service details on official documents, communications, and platforms. This clause ensures clarity, transparency, and accountability for all parties.
We offer a brief summary post-service to explain the issues addressed and repairs completed. However, in-depth expert advice and tutorials require a separate appointment and payment to ensure our technicians adhere to their schedule and address your concerns attentively. It is essential to compensate our technicians for their expertise and experience.
Appointments & Schedule Changes
We strive to communicate any appointment or schedule changes to clients in advance. However, the unpredictable nature of repairs and services may occasionally result in longer-than-anticipated durations, leading to delays in subsequent appointments, potentially extending to a different day. This is inherent in the repair process. Unforeseen circumstances such as inclement weather are beyond our control and could necessitate rescheduling your appointment to a different day. We prioritize clients based on the order of their booking, not the order of their inquiry. Last-minute, weekend, and holiday appointments are subject to an urgency surcharge, irrespective of any initial delays. We are not responsible for the client's lost wages due to appointment delays. Clients who cancel appointments without providing a minimum 72-hour notice are responsible for the total service cost. Rescheduling without a minimum 48-hour notice will incur a change fee of $100. Attempting to reschedule and subsequently cancel to circumvent these policies will result in the forfeiture of payment, and we will no longer be able to accommodate you as a client.
COVID-19
Our commitment is to maintain a safe and healthy work environment for all amidst the challenges posed by the spread of COVID-19. It is crucial for all sectors of society, including local businesses, to actively participate in safeguarding themselves and others to curb the further transmission of the disease. We adhere to the practical guidelines set forth by the World Health Organization (WHO) for COVID-19 prevention and safety protocols. Therefore, we are mask-optional until further notice.
To minimize contact and ensure safety, homeowners or tenants are not required to be present during appointments as we are fully equipped for contactless service. Kindly provide entry details such as gate codes or access points when scheduling appointments to prevent any delays. Additionally, we offer the following precautions: self-service scheduling, virtual diagnostics, contactless service and payment. All interactions are conducted outdoors, and we strictly adhere to social distancing guidelines. We appreciate your cooperation in helping our technicians maintain their health and safety.
Photo & Video
We retain the right to capture and utilize images and videos from work sites and projects as part of our intellectual property. Photo and video documentation is gathered upon the completion of services to serve as evidence in the event of disputes. Rest assured, we will not disclose or publish any sensitive information, including identifiable faces, addresses, or license plates.
