Blue Zen Ventures Service Rate Sheet

Overview

Blue Zen Ventures offers technical, on-site services using a tiered pricing model that reflects the higher value of initial diagnostics, planning, and setup work while keeping longer visits more cost-effective for clients. This structure was designed around a target effective average near $70 per hour across common 3–4 hour service visits.[cite:1]

Technical Consulting / Multi-Skill Service Call

This option is suited to mixed technical work such as device setup, electrical troubleshooting, smart home tasks, mechanical systems support, and other specialized field service that does not fit neatly into a single category. The same ladder keeps pricing simple and predictable for clients while preserving a strong effective rate on shorter visits.

- First hour: $100

- Second hour: $80

- Third hour and beyond: $60 per hour

Pool/Spa Technical Service & Balancing

This category uses a slightly softer first-hour rate for maintenance-oriented work while still recognizing the diagnostic value of technical inspection and equipment review. It is appropriate for chemistry checks, equipment troubleshooting, adjustments, and minor technical service work.[cite:1]

- First hour: $90

- Second hour: $75

- Third hour and beyond: $60 per hour

- Typical 2-hour visit: $165

- Typical 3-hour visit: $225

- Second hour: $80

- Third hour and beyond: $60 per hour

- Half-day technical visit (4 hours): $300

- Extended technical visit (6 hours): $420

Smart Home Diagnostic & Optimization Visit
