We’ll call the police on you! :)

Just kidding, changing your mind is not a problem at all. Submitting a request for quotes is not a contractual obligation. You don’t pay any money until you pull the trigger on a payment and if you change your mind before any work is done, we’ll fully refund your money. We’re here to save you time and money, period.

Chances of this happening are slim. But if it does, we have a zero tolerance policy with respect to our shops. Our goal is to connect you with the best shops out there so if there are any shops that aren’t delivering the highest quality overhaul or repair, we don’t want them in our network. That said, we can get involved with any dispute between you and the repair shop and work resolve the issue as quickly as possible.


Because they’re smart. Shops use Overhaul Bids for a number of reasons but here’s the main three:

  • Customers On-Demand – No other business can give shops a pool of customers that they can draw from whenever they want. Some shops use this to level their production. Others use it to constantly boost output and productivity.
  • Risk Free – Shops Don’t have to pay anything until they have a customer in the door.
  • Reputation Credibility – No one believes testimonials on someone’s website but reviews on a third party site like Overhaul Bids are credible.

Two ways: 1) We get a small referral fee from the repair shop when you find and use them through our website and 2) We make money if you decide to upgrade your project for apples and apples quotes. But forget the money, our goal is to help you find a great shop that will do quality work at a fair price. If you want to know more about us, give us a call. We’d love to tell you more about our business.


No. Please pay them direct


Shops will only see information about your aircraft and engine. We will never provide your email, address, or phone number to any third party. Please see our privacy policy for more information.
