Larry was the technician. He was very professional about answering my call and setting up the appointment within the next day or so. Arrived on time and went right to work. He knew the cause of the problem immediately and had the needed equipment on his truck, as I had described it on the phone. So he replace the Solenoid on the washer, ran and tested it to make sure everything was OK. I will call this company again for appliance repairs, and I will ask for Larry.

Oh, and by the way: our dishwasher is no longer leaking all over the floor.
Description of Work: Larry asked me questions about our dishwasher, diagnosed the problem, told me what I could expect from our machine in the future and listed possible options. At no time did I feel as though I was being spoken down to or misled by Larry. Even though my knowledge of dishwasher operation is quite limited I feel as though I now have a greater understanding of what makes my dishwasher tick.

Paul arrived on time, briefly and formally introduced himself. I showed him the washer and he quickly went to work. Within a few minutes, he called me back to the laundry room to show me his findings and indicated his course of action. He was done in a few minutes....I also asked Paul to check my microwave oven which I had not previously called in for. He was more than willing to assess why the turntable had stopped running, then make his recommendations for repair. A new motor was ordered after I approved of the repair and I made a small deposit toward the new part. The company will call to schedule a follow up appointment when the parts arrive.

Service Tech was very nice and explained the repairs needed.
Description of Work: He was called to look at two kitchen appliances, a dishwasher and a refrigerator. The Dishwasher was not repaired as the cost to rep(over $300) did not make sense. The refrigerator had a water leak in the ice make which was repaired.

Refrigerator was not defrosting properly which overheated the unit and stopped cooling. One call and Robert showed up same day. Diagnosed the problem and had to order a part. Part came in within a day and Robert came back and fixed it ASAP... Robert explained every step to me, no surprises at all. Price was very fair.

Larry tested & examined existing ice maker to verify whether only a part was needed to be replaced or a new ice maker was needed. I asked him questions as he was performing the tests and he took the time to explain what he was doing and what the function of the various parts are. Ultimately, I needed a new ice maker which he had stocked in his truck. He also noted that one of the door handles on the refrigerator was loose and took the time to adjust it at no charge. I was very happy with the overall service.

My refrigerator was burned by an electrical surge. I called in the morning and Larry was out by 1pm. He gave me the estimate of what it would cost to fix the refrigerator and the chance of it working appropriately again. I decided to get a new one instead of trying to fix the singed and very smelly one I had. Larry was very respectful of my decision. He gave me direction on how to file a claim with the power company and how to get the smell out of the fridge. He left his card in case I changed my mind or had any further questions. I would certainly hire Better Homes A/C and Appliance Service again.
Description of Work: Larry checked the refrigerator and got pricing for repair parts.

I can't say enough good things about the professionalism and efficiency of this company. Their price for a service call is also $20 less than one of the other local top-rated appliance repair companies on Angie's List. I was given a 3 hour window for when they would arrive, but Kevin phoned to confirm it would be okay to come 15 minutes before noon. He evaluated the dishwasher and quickly determined the problem (it was our hot water dispenser which was on the same circuit). He gave be some good advice as to how to keep the dishwasher functioning well. Additionally, he asked me if I had questions about any other appliances that he could answer. Hopefully, we won't have problems with any other appliance but if we do we will definitely use Better Homes A/C and Appliance again.

Better Homes responded to our call the same day we placed it. The serviceman checked out the problem. After working on the appliance for a half an hour, he informed us that the problem needed to be handled by GE factory service. Because Better Homes had to refer the problem, there was no charge for the service call. This is what we call excellent service.

I cannot imagine ever using another company to perform services on any kitchen appliance in my home. They are honest, reliable, efficient, and when they leave you never know they have been here. Chris arrived on time as always (I have used the company before) and replaced the bulb for me quickly and efficiently. I cannot say enough positive things about this company and how it is managed.
Description of Work: I called the office to schedule an appointment because my oven light which was installed 8 months prior had burned out. After some detailed discussion to the owner, Lynn, she sent Chris out to replace the light bulb at no charge.

Anytime I have any issues with my appliances they are the only company that I am ever going to use. The refrigerator is running perfectly now. They were a little bit early for the appointment and ask me if it was okay to come in early too. The first time the computer board went out and the freezer had stopped working and the second time the heating element so that the cold air flows from the freezer into the refrigeration part had frozen solid so the heater had to be replaced.
Description of Work: I used Better Home A/C & Appliance Inc for repairing a GE side by side refrigerator. I have used them thrice already; once was for a washing machine and twice for two separate and completely different issues with the refrigerator.

I called Better Homes A/C & Appliance Inc in December because my partner's brother killed my $800 washing machine. He punched the start button and broke it. I called a couple of places and this was the one I chose. They told us that I had to replace the mother board. This would have cost over half of the original cost of the machine. So I decided to buy a new one. The brother likes to take things apart, so he pulled it all apart and what was missing was a small spring behind the start button. The mother board was perfect: there was no indication of any wrong with it. That machine was only about 3 or 4 years old and it was a high quality machine. They just wanted me to spend $450 and the problem was a spring? It could have been that the guy didn't know what he was talking about, of course. They charged $50 dollars to come out and diagnose the problem, which is taken off the price of the repair if they do the job. They had to order the part, which was going to take a week. He came out to put the part in and it turned out to be the wrong part! Apparently, in the manufacturing process they had changed a part halfway through the year, and they had the wrong part and had to order it again. I had to give a deposit for the part and they were only going to refund $50 of it because that was the cost of the diagnosis.

Repair was scheduled for the next day between 8-11am. Larry arrived at 10. He immediately knew the problem was the transmission drive coupler. He said it would be $178, he had the parts in the truck and it would take 30 minutes. He took care of it quickly, professionally and the washer works fine again.

Guy showed up on time. Spent 2 minutes looking at bottom of washer. Said he would give an estimate. Collected check for $49.95. Called on Monday following site visit and said parts & labor would exceed value of washer. Asked about what a good washer he'd recommend. He said to look at Consumer Reports. In my opinion, it was a waste of $50. Not sure if this company fixes anything.
Description of Work: Washer was leaking. Called this company for repair. Repairman showed up and looked at washer. Said main seal "may be" broken. Would call back with estimate, which he did the following Monday. Basically, he said it would cost more than the washer was worth. Washer was a Whirpool Cabrio, about 6 years old. Cost almost $900. I don't know if the seal was broken or not, as all the "repairman" did was visually LOOK at the washer bottom. In and out in about 5 minutes. Took me longer to write the $49.95 check than was spent "looking at" the washer. We ended up buying a new washer. Basically, I could have done the same thing and saved $49.95. I really don't think he intended to fix the washer. Easiest $50 he ever made.

Description of Work: Our Bosch Refrigerator's water/ice dispenser was not working. Called Better Homes at about 9:30 AM, Jim, their service man, was here by 12:30 PM. In short time, he identified our problem and found a loose wire. We were able to use our Angie's List coupon and saved $20. Jim was very professional. We will use this company again.
