Tiered Pricing for a Failed Wall Socket
For a wall socket that has stopped working, a company might present three fixed-price options: Basic — replace the failed receptacle ($160–$230); Standard — install a GFCI receptacle and test every receptacle on that branch circuit ($210–$340); Premium — complete the repair, add a whole-home surge suppressor, and enroll the home in a yearly maintenance membership ($520–$880 plus the membership fee). Each option is priced as a flat rate that includes labor, the listed materials, and the normal warranty for that scope.
