A Smart Way to Protect Your Equipment

You've invested in quality equipment that is vital to your business—and service contracts represent a smart way to protect your investment. A fixed annual fee provides comprehensive service support on your equipment and creates many strong advantages in your business.

Financial Advantage

Predictable service costs are a real plus—a fixed-line item in your budget. Greater peace of mind results when you're protected against potentially expensive equipment failures—we take that risk for you at Hobart. Protect yourself against potentially expensive equipment failures—lock in future service at current prices—and save money by processing fewer service invoices.

Performance Advantage

Properly maintained equipment will last years longer and experience less downtime—leading to increased operator profits and enhanced productivity. Equipment tends to be much better maintained while under contract—minor repairs and basic preventive maintenance are performed before small problems have a chance to become large problems. Professional and timely equipment maintenance doesn't cost—it pays!

No one in the industry is as close to their customers.

We're within 100 kilometres of 95% of our customers. We have 5 branch and 32 satellite offices and 120 service technicians. We stock our Hobart service vans with $2 million in parts, so traditionally 75% of the time we can solve your problem on the first call. When we don't have a part in the van, we can typically overnight it from our National Parts Distribution Center, which houses 35,000 separate parts. And we're available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. All you have to do is call.
