The company

How a visit works
Every job starts with a $145 diagnostic visit. You get a written diagnosis — what failed, what it costs to fix, and whether the repair is worth it against the machine's age and market value. If the work proceeds, the $145 credits toward the repair. If the honest answer is "replace it", that is what the paper says.
Most diagnostics take 45–90 minutes. Common parts ride on the truck; anything ordered comes with a date, not a shrug.
Why coffee only
A general appliance tech sees an espresso machine twice a year and guesses. Twelve-plus years on coffee equipment means the failure patterns are familiar before the panels come off — which gaskets flatten at year three, which boards drop when the voltage sags, which "broken" machines are a settings reset. That is the whole difference: pattern recognition you only get from volume on one category of machine. Espresso machines and coffee brewers are what we do — 28 brands, six service lines, 25 cities.
