Common Questions

Everything you need to know about the concierge pickup process, services, pricing, and coverage.

The Process
How does the pickup process work?

Submit a service request through the Dispatch page. We'll confirm your appointment within a few hours. At the scheduled time, we arrive at your location to collect your equipment. The service is completed at our Katy shop, and you'll receive a notification when it's ready. Then you make one trip to our Katy shop to collect it, where we handle final adjustments and confirm the fit with you.

How long does service take?

Turnaround depends on the service and any parts involved. We'll give you a clear time estimate when we confirm your appointment, and let you know the moment your bow is ready to collect.

Do I need to be home for the pickup?

Yes — someone needs to hand off the equipment directly. We don't accept unattended pickups. The handoff takes less than five minutes and gives us the chance to note any existing condition issues before we leave.

What happens when the service is complete?

You'll receive an email when your equipment is ready. From there, you schedule a time to collect it at our Katy location, where we make final adjustments and confirm the fit with you before you leave.

Services
What type of bows do you service?

We specialize in compound bows. Recurve and traditional bow services are handled on a case-by-case basis — contact us before booking to confirm we can accommodate your equipment.

Do you sell parts or strings?

We source and install quality strings and components as part of every string replacement job. You don't need to supply parts — just bring your bow. If you have a preference for a specific string brand or material, let us know in the request notes.

Do I get a say in the fine-tuning?

Standard work like string replacement is completed at the shop. For fine-tuning that depends on your draw and form (paper tuning, sight alignment, draw-length adjustments), we finalize it with you when you collect your bow — you'll see exactly what was adjusted and why, and leave with a straight answer on your setup.

Pricing
How does pricing work?

Services have published starting rates. A final quote is provided before any work begins — you approve it before we start. There's no commitment until you've seen and accepted the quote. A booking deposit — combining a location-based pickup fee and a percentage of your service's estimated cost — is collected when you book. The service percentage applies toward your final invoice; the pickup fee covers the trip.

Is there a pickup fee?

Yes. Pickup fees vary by zone. The primary zone (Katy, Richmond, Fulshear, Brookshire, Cypress, Cinco Ranch, Simonton) has the lowest fee. The secondary zone (Sugar Land, Missouri City, Stafford, Pearland, Pasadena, Spring, The Woodlands, Conroe, Baytown, Friendswood) has a slightly higher fee. Extended range areas are handled on a case-by-case basis. The estimated pickup fee is displayed when you enter your location on the Dispatch page.

What does the deposit cover?

Your booking deposit combines a pickup fee (based on your location) and a percentage of your service's estimated cost — both shown on the Dispatch page before you book. It secures your appointment slot. The service percentage is credited toward your final invoice; the pickup fee covers the trip and isn't credited. The deposit is non-refundable if you cancel, but transfers in full if you reschedule instead.
