We’ll confirm by phone or email before we head out. Rather talk it through? 516-448-6221.

Basic service calls only — diagnostics, repairs and installs under a day that don't need parts ordered. Bigger jobs need parts sourced first: call 516-448-6221 or order parts here.

Who we're meeting

Your receipt and the sign-off link go here.

The boat

Where the boat actually is — this sets your travel and sales tax.

Scope of work

Model numbers help a lot — the more you tell us, the better the odds we fix it in one trip.

We'll call to confirm the day and a time window — nothing is locked in until we talk.

What you're paying today

First hour — travel (up to 30 min each way) & setup included $280.00
NY sales tax$24.50
Due now$304.50

Everything past the first hour — extra time, extra travel, and any parts — is billed after the work is done, itemized, and charged to this same card. You'll sign for it on the boat and get a receipt by email.

Credit cards add our card cost (~3%), shown before you pay. Debit cards, Zelle, and cash: no fee.

How do you want to pay?

Read & agree — this is what you're signing

The whole agreement is right here — no fine print anywhere else.

EVERYTHING IS TIME AND MATERIALS — never a fixed price. You pay for the actual work done. 1. THE RATES • First hour — travel (up to 30 min each way) + setup + first hour of work: $280.00 flat • Each hour after the first (billed in 15-minute steps): $140/hr • Second technician, first hour (only if the job needs one): $160 • Second technician, each hour after: $80/hr • Shop / bench / admin / R&D time (off the boat, when needed): $125/hr • CAD / design for custom panels & helm layout (when needed): $140/hr Research, parts sourcing, and admin work done for your job — both before and after the visit — is billable time at the rates above. It is not free, and it shows as its own line on your receipt. Some jobs need two sets of hands (big screens, tight spaces, heavy gear). We tell you before a second tech is added, and his time is its own line on your receipt. 2. TRAVEL • First 30 minutes each way: FREE — included in your first hour • Beyond 30 minutes each way: $40 per half hour, per technician Travel is timed door to door — from when we leave our shop to your boat, and the same on the way back. If extra travel applies, it is its own line on your receipt. 3. PARTS, MATERIALS & TAX • Parts & materials: cost + standard markup, itemized (we supply all parts) • Parts not billed on site: may be billed after, itemized the same way • New York sales tax (8.75%): applies to labor and parts 4. PAYMENT I authorize Long Island Marine Electronics to charge my card now for the first hour plus sales tax, to keep my card on file, and to charge that same card after the work is completed for the labor performed (including a second technician when added), travel, and parts and materials at cost plus markup — itemized on a final receipt emailed to me, including parts not billed on site. Credit cards carry a card processing fee equal to LIME's actual processing cost (about 3%), shown before I pay. Debit cards, Zelle, and cash have no fee. 5. CANCELLATION If I cancel with less than 48 hours notice, or no one is available to provide access at the scheduled time, the first hour is non-refundable.

Card

Charged now for the first hour and kept on file for the balance. We never see or store your card number — it goes straight to Stripe.

We verify the card type when you book. If a card marked debit turns out to be credit, you'll see the corrected total and nothing is charged until you approve it. If a card marked credit is actually debit, you're simply charged the lower no-fee amount.

48 hours notice to reschedule without charge.

How It Works

What happens after you book.

We confirm the day

You get a confirmation right away, then a call or email from the person actually doing the work to lock in the time and make sure we bring the right gear.

We come to the boat

Dock, marina, mooring or yard anywhere in Nassau or Suffolk. No haul-out, no dropping the boat off, no waiting weeks for a shop slot.

You pay for real time

Flat $280 first hour, then $140/hr in 15-minute steps. You get the numbers up front and you're billed for the work that actually gets done.

What It Costs

Time and materials — never a flat rate.

Every dollar figure is an estimate of scale, not a fixed price. You pay for the hours actually worked plus parts. Full detail on the pricing page.

$280 first hour

One technician. Includes travel up to 30 minutes each way, setup, and the first hour of work. Multi-day jobs restart the first-hour rate each day.

$140/hr after

Billed in 15-minute steps. No four-hour minimum — if it takes 90 minutes, you pay for 90 minutes.

$440 / $220 for a crew

When a job needs two people. Second man alone is $160 first hour, $80/hr after. Shop and R&D time is $125/hr, never the field rate.

Questions

Booking questions, answered.

What does the first hour cost?

The first hour is a flat $280. That covers travel to your boat (up to 30 minutes each way), setup, and the first hour of work. After that it is $140/hr billed in 15-minute steps. There is no four-hour minimum.

Do I have to pay when I book?

You put a card on file to hold the appointment. You are billed for the actual time and materials after the work is done — never a flat rate quoted in advance.

What can I book online?

Basic service calls: diagnostics, repairs, and installs that take less than a day and do not need parts ordered first. Larger upgrades and refits need to be scoped properly, so call 516-448-6221 for those.

Do you come to my boat?

Yes. We work at your dock, marina, mooring, or yard anywhere in Nassau and Suffolk County. No haul-out needed.

What if I need to reschedule?

Call or email and we will move it. Give us as much notice as you can so we can fill the slot.
