What to expect
Routine maintenance, inspection and emergency rescue support may be separate contracts.
A good place to start
Provide the installation details and existing service records. Ask what response arrangements, inspection coordination and replacement parts are included.
What to compare
- Equipment compatibility
- Maintenance scope
- Breakdown response
Give each provider the same brief
Share photographs, dimensions and the result you want. Ask what the quote includes and excludes, how extra work is approved and who handles cleanup. Confirm the relevant qualifications and any guarantees for the work.
