Description of Work: Can't say enough good things about Rich. Prompt, professional, pleasant. Always explains what is wrong, how to fix, costs. Repaired our dryer, our gas stove top. We recently had him out to fix our washer and it could not be fixed. He explained the problem and was so kind to not charge for the visit and diagnosis. |Hope to not have any appliances break down anytime soon, but if we do then we will definitely be calling Rich.

Description of Work: Our 8 year old washing machine at our business stopped working. I called around to a couple vendors and they either didn't work on our model or couldn't come out to look at it soon (10 days!). C & A Brown Co was able to schedule someone to look at it in two days. Rich came out and replaced a valve. He said it wasn't unusual for this part to need replacing. He ran a diagnostic on the machine and said everything else looks good. Rich was friendly, helpful, and professional. He arrived on time and did the work in about an hour. The washing machine works great now.

This was the first time I had used his services. He did a great job. He was a pleasant fellow that seemed to know what he was doing. He had the patience to listen to what the problem was and had the knowledge to fix it.

Other than having to wait a couple of days for C A Brown to come to my house everything else was excellent. After describing the problem with my dishwasher over the phone the repairman showed up with the correct parts on his truck. The work was performed in a clean and professional manner and they stayed until the dishwasher ran through a cycles to make sure everything was working properly. The bill was actually lower than I had anticipated it would be.
Description of Work: Installed device/part on dishwasher so the door would stay in place and lower slowly.

C&A Brown were great, had to wait about a week to find the correct part for the lower oven's outerglass, but they found it and replaced it quickly. They were on time and what was really nice was that they gave me a call 30 min before he came out to allow me to get home from work so I didn't have to wait around all day.
Description of Work: Replaced the display panel for my Thermador double oven and replaced the lower oven's outerglass.

I called on a Monday and they said they have technicians in my area M, W, F, and we set up a time for Wednesday afternoon. I had time conflicts in the morning and late afternoon and they said they'd work around them, giving me a 1.5 hour window. They said if I'm at work, they can call when they're on their way so I don't have to wait around. They also called that morning to give me the exact time frame. Rich arrived in the appropriate time frame, and diagnosed the problem immediately. After fixing it, he showed me more about how the washer worked, and how I could fix this problem myself next time it occurred. He told me about the different settings on the machine (helpful since I don't have the original instruction book) and to keep the water source off when not in use, to prevent possible pipe breaks. He made sure to check if the timing of his visit was good, acknowledging that I had timing issues. Surprisingly pleasant experience. I'd use them again.
Description of Work: Our clothes washer was taking too long for a complete cycle. Rich Galletta diagnosed the problem within seconds of turning on the machine and cleaned out the cold water filter.

I have been using C&A Brown for thirty years. Sue and Rich are the best of the best. They do all the work for my family and friends and I have never heard one complaint. There is no other service company that I trust as much as these folks.

They were prompt coming to my house. I had to call them twice before I got a response for an appointment though. All in all, they were okay.
Description of Work: Service call for a broken washing machine. Make sure you ask up front how much things cost i.e. service call etc. I failed to do this and the person who came out to my house said he tried to replace parts in the machine, but they wouldn't work and that since they were an appliance sales company, would I like to purchase a washing machine from them? Needless to say, I went elsewhere.
