No Surprises
Heavy Equipment Repair Rates in Las Vegas
Most shops make you call to find out what an hour costs. Here are ours, in writing, before you pick up the phone.
The Rates
What an Hour Costs
On-Site Field Labor
Our tech, our truck and our tooling, working at your machine.
Travel Time
Billed hourly from the time we roll out until we are back. No mystery trip charge bolted on top.
Parts are billed separately. Rates are current as of August 2026 and subject to change. Call and describe the machine and the symptom, and we can usually give you a realistic range on the phone before anyone drives anywhere.
Why We Publish These
Nobody Else in This Market Will Tell You
Go look at the other heavy equipment shops in Nevada. Not one of them publishes an hourly rate. You call, you describe your problem, and somewhere in that conversation somebody decides what you are going to pay.
We would rather you knew going in. If our number does not work for your job, you have lost a phone call instead of a service call. And if it does work, we can skip straight past the part where you are trying to figure out whether you are being taken advantage of.
Published rates also keep us honest. It is hard to quietly pad a bill when the labor rate is sitting on a public web page.
How Billing Works
You Get the Number Before the Wrench Turns
Here is the sequence, every time. We show up, we diagnose the machine, and then we stop and tell you two things: what is actually wrong and what it is going to cost to fix. Nothing gets repaired on assumption and nothing lands on your invoice that you did not approve first.
If teardown turns up damage the symptoms did not show, which happens, you hear about it before we keep going. You get a revised number and you decide. That conversation is not fun for either of us but it beats the alternative, which is a surprise at the bottom of a bill.
Travel being billed by the hour rather than by the mile means the closer you are, the less you pay. A jobsite in the Las Vegas valley carries very little travel. Pahrump is about an hour each way. Elko is a scheduled trip and we will tell you what that looks like before you commit to anything.
What do you charge per hour?
On-site field labor is $135 per hour. Travel time is $100 per hour. Parts are billed separately. Those are the numbers, and they’re the same whether you run one machine or thirty.
How does travel time actually work?
It is billed hourly at $100 from the time we leave until we are back, rather than as a flat trip fee or a per-mile charge. The practical effect is that being closer costs you less. A job inside the Las Vegas valley carries very little travel. Somewhere like Elko is a scheduled trip and we will tell you what the travel looks like before you agree to anything.
Is the diagnosis included in the hourly rate?
Diagnosis is work, so it is billed at the same $135 hourly labor rate. It is also the step that saves you the most money, because it is what stops parts being replaced on a guess. A shop that skips diagnosis to look cheap on paper is a shop that bills you twice.
What is not included in the hourly rate?
Parts. We source OEM, aftermarket or rebuilt components depending on your budget and how long you plan to keep the machine, and those are billed separately at cost plus markup. You are told what a part costs before it is ordered.
Can you give me a total before you come out?
Often we can give you a realistic range on the phone if you describe the machine, the symptom and where it sits. A firm number needs eyes on the machine. Any shop that quotes you a fixed total for a repair it has not seen is guessing, and that guess is always padded in their favor.
Do you charge more for a bigger machine?
No. The hourly rate is the hourly rate. A bigger machine sometimes takes longer and sometimes needs more expensive parts, but you are not paying a premium just because the unit is large.
Now You Know What It Costs
Tell us the machine, the symptom and where it sits. We will tell you what we think it is and roughly what you are looking at.
