Repairs & Diagnostic Charges
This article explains how repair requests are handled, when diagnostic charges apply, and the steps team members should follow when customers request equipment repairs.
Repairs & Diagnostic Charges
This repair process helps ensure equipment issues are evaluated properly and that customers receive a clear estimate before any repair work is performed.
What This Means for Our Team Members
Some product issues may require inspection or repair by Whip Mix technicians.
Repair requests must go through the RMA process so the product can be evaluated before any work is performed.
Repairs are billed on time and materials, and customers must approve the repair estimate before work begins.
What To Do
If a customer requests a repair:
- Ask the customer to describe the issue with the equipment.
- Confirm the product information and purchase details if available.
- Request an RMA through Customer Service so the equipment can be returned for evaluation.
and repair estimate will be provided.
5. Once the estimate is approved, repair work may begin.
The product must be returned following the RMA instructions provided by Customer Service.
Important Things to Remember
Repairs are handled on a time and materials basis.
- Diagnostic services are billed at $125 per hour.
- Material and replacement part costs may apply.
