My pricing policy is pretty straight forward, fix things fast and right the first time and don’t charge a lot for the services performed. I don’t believe in charging a ‘per hour’ rate as a lot of repairs or software installs (including updates) may take a few hours, but really you only touch them for a short period time and the rest is just waiting time.
As I was growing up, I had the family value instilled in me that you should never forget where you came from and how you got to where you are today. I do truly believe in this value and find that it isn’t as common as it used to be. That is why with my company, I do offer labour discounts to anybody age 55 and over (Proof of Age Required to get the 50% discount). I can’t at this time offer any discounts on Website Designs or Website Maintenance Contracts as these costs are set by the Hosting Companies and I have no say in their fees.
I also offer a labour discount if you have served our Great Country (either in the past or currently still are active – A BIG THANK YOU TO YOU FOR THAT SACRAFICE YOU AND YOUR FAMILY HAVE MADE FOR ALL OF US), you will only pay for parts if they are needed, as I will not charge you labour. Please note you will have to prove that you served or are currently still enrolled.
At this time, any labour discounts that I offer to the above (Military Personnel or People aged 55 and over), only apply to Computer Repairs/Upgrades. Any website designs or website maintenance do not qualify for discounts.
I don’t charge to look at the problem. I only charge you if I am able to perform the work to fix the issue. After the initial assessment, I will contact you to verify the cost and the time needed to perform the work you asked for. So to deal with me, it will not cost you anything unless I can fix it. If I am servicing your equipment and need to perform 2 repairs or upgrades, you wont pay 2 labour rates. ( An example is if I am replacing your hard drive and have to install windows, it will only be 1 service fee).
We also now accept E-Transfers as payment. If you wish to use this service, please send the payment to ” payments@barrysmithwebdesigns.ca “. We have auto deposit turned on so no need for a secret question and answer.

Point To Point Wifi Bridge Installation
The price for this service is based on a site by site basis. For majority of sites, you will need 2 Antennas, Weatherproof cable, Mounting Poles, and a wireless router at the receiving end to share the internet around the area. For the average install, the hardware runs around the $250 to $300 range plus the wiring and router and that covers a distance of about to 1 KM between the 2 points. The other factors that dictate the price are speed of devices you want, the exact range between devices, is there more than 1 building you want to extend to and if you need Single or Dual Band. The best advice I can give is to contact me and have me come out for a quick site survey which I don’t charge for as long as it is in my service area which I will tell you when we make the appointment.
