One-off Repair Charge

What is included in the One-Off Fixed Repair Charge?

Faults that are not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, or out-with the warranty period, will incur a cost which we call the One-Off Fixed Repair Charge, this is payable upfront.

Our Appliance Technicians guarantee to phone you within 48 hours of the repair being reported to discuss the fault, and schedule a visit for the repair.

The One-Off Fixed Repair Charge covers our technician's labour, travel, and overall time. If your repair requires numerous visits then this will be covered with the fixed fee. We do not charge per visit.

Our rates are dependent on area, due to travel time/cost:

  • Lerwick £80
  • Gulberwick/Quarff/Scalloway/Tingwall £90
  • The rest of Shetland Mainland £100
  • Bressay £105
  • Yell/Whalsay £115
  • Unst/Fetlar £125

(Prices as of 31 March 2025)

Please note that these fixed rates are for appliances that have been purchased from us, and we offer reduced rates for customer loyalty. If your product was purchased from another retailer, then please contact us for your fixed rate.

Spare parts will be sourced and costed in addition, as and when required. We will provide you with a quote before ordering the spare parts. The spare parts will be billed to you after the repair is complete.

    “Opened up my washing machine and noticed the rubber seal in the door had a huge hole and all the rubber had on to the clothes...panic stations...phoned Geordie Robertsons the next day first thing and spoke we Avril....who kindly did a check to see if the washing machine was still on a warranty...( which it was thankfully )...I came back from work at lunchtime the same day, got a call from one of the technicians and said they had the bit and could come now to fix....Happy days...Problem resolved in about half an hour...Fantastic service and in this case shopping local really was a big help, and even better no charge as it was still on the warranty."
