Repair and Service Calls for Signage Companies

A repair call is logged against the sign that was installed. The board’s history then shows the original job, each visit, the parts used and whether the call was charged.

What a call records

The sign and its job

The call opens from the board’s record, so the original size, lighting parts and installation date are at hand.

Fault and visit

The fault, such as a dead LED strip, a cracked acrylic face or a loose letter, is noted with the date the crew visited.

Parts used

Modules, drivers or letters used are issued from stock against the call instead of going untracked.

Chargeable or not

The call is marked as a charged visit, a goodwill repair, or a fix covered by the terms you gave the client. The terms themselves are yours.

Periodic maintenance visits

Some clients pay for regular visits to clean and check lit boards. Such visits are listed with their dates, so a board due for a check shows on the schedule. Billing for them uses the same invoice screen.

Who works with it

  • Front-office staff take the call and open the board’s record
  • Crews see the fault, the address and the parts to carry
  • Owners see which boards keep coming back for repair
  • Estimators see repeat faults before quoting a similar lit board

What the repair record does not do

It does not diagnose faults or promise a response time. How soon a crew attends, and what is covered free, are set by the owner and told to the client directly. Warranty wording stays in your quotation terms.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can a call be raised for a board another company installed?

Yes. A new record is created for the sign without an original job, and the visit is billed as a normal service call.

Can photos of the fault be attached?

Yes. The client or the crew can add photos to the call, and they stay with the board’s history.

How are periodic visits scheduled?

Each is listed with a due date on the board’s record, and the office books the crew when the date nears.
