appliance repair, dryer vent cleaning
  + 0 more
My Whirlpool Ultimate Care II Gas Dryer was getting warm, at least at first, but clothes were not dry at the end of the cycle. I made an appointment with Better Homes and the technician, Kevin, arrived as scheduled. While I had partially cleaned the dryer vent and tested the dryer with the vent detached, Kevin offered to clean the vertical vent which goes up through the roof for $87.45 so I approved this. While troubleshooting the actual dryer problem, Kevin ran it using "AccuDry" sensor mode(which I use exclusively)as well as timed drying. He noted that the problem did not appear in 5 minutes during timed drying so he thought the issue was with the sensor drying only. After consulting the wiring diagram and calling other technicians for their opinion, Kevin informed me that the temperature control board and detector switch would cost $269.95 to replace. He recommended we use the timed mode to avoid having to do this as a new dryer wouldn't cost much more than the repair. After Kevin left I had to clean the entire utility room since cleaning the dryer vent resulted in a layer of dust on everything. Then I tried a load of laundry using the timer instead of senor drying. The problem still existed-the clothes did not dry. Apparently, he had mis-diagnosed the problem. Not having confidence to call Better Homes again, I called Belspeed Appliance repair and the technician replaced the gas valves for $120 and fixed the problem.
Description of Work: Cleaned dryer vent but mis-diagnosed dryer problem.

The technician was extremely efficient and friendly, identifying the problem quickly. The technician had the correct parts to perform the repair and provided an estimate on site. Once given the OK to perform the repair the technician finished the repair quickly and with a minimum of disruption to the household. The refrigerator is now 100% functional again.
Description of Work: The refrigerator was leaking water very badly after the ice maker failed. The service technician identified the problem as two-fold. The ice maker had failed which in turn caused the solenoid valve to malfunction which caused the leak.

Easily got an appointment to repair washer. Explained problem to the very efficient woman who answered the phone, and the repairman showed up at the door with exactly the part I needed, right at the promised appointment time. Having used them before, they had my washer model in their file. 15 minutes, in and out, washer works perfectly.

We called and got Chris, the service tech to come out the next day. He came out within the time frame, and immediately went to work. He took the dishwasher apart and really inspected it for any problems. He told us that the dishwasher had clogged due to our leaving to back north to our other home. He poured vinegar and water into the dishwasher and told us to let it sit overnight. Chris came back the next morning and checked it and it is now in good working order. He also told us how to avoid the clog and how to keep the dishwasher in good repair. He took the dryer apart but informed us that the dryer was working properly, but we needed to have someone clean out the dryer vent. Once it was done, the dryer is working perfectly.
Description of Work: We contacted Better Homes to look at our dishwasher and clothes dryer, both of which didn't seem to operate. Chris came out and took a look at both. The dishwasher was clogged, and he used vinegar and water to break up the clog, and came out the next day to make sure it was clear. The dryer was working properly, just the vent to the outside of our condo was clogged. He diagnosed and completed the work perfectly!

It went well. The service repairman was prompt and respectful of my property while taking apart the dishwasher to determine the problem. His opinion was that the part that needed to be replaced was extremely expensive - almost as much as replacing the dishwasher. He didn't try to sell me services that I didn't need. He was honest, thorough and very professional. I would use them again.
Description of Work: Checked out my dishwasher and found that the part that needed to be replaced cost almost as much as replacing the dishwasher. The repairman was very honest, friendly, professional, and courteous. I ended up not getting it repaired and just paid the $49 service charge. It was a very good experience. I didn't mind paying for the service trip charge because I valued his thoroughness, professional opinion and honesty. I will definitely use them again and recommend them.

Service went very well. After appointment was made, Bob showed up within the time range and immediately knew what we needed; a new ice maker. He took the information and ordered the product. After about 10 day's the new ice maker came in and a install appointment was made with a few days. Bob again showed up on time and replace the item, tested it and cleaned out the ice bin.
Description of Work: Ice maker was leaking into ice container causing a frozen mess.

Awesome! They were able to schedule in less than 24 hours. Tech arrived right on time and went to work right away. Took apart dryer, diagnosed problem, told me the price and when I asked how long, said he could be done in 15 minutes. Was dead-on on time and I could not be happier with this company.

The technician arrived promptly at the agreed on time. He worked on the machine for about an hour and informed me that he could not complete the job until he ordered some new parts. I told him that would be fine. I didn't hear anything back from the company for two weeks and I called them. I was informed that the parts were expected in the next day. Two days later the technician returned and finished the job. The washer is working fine now.
Description of Work: The agitator on my Whirlpool washing machine kept coming off the spindle when the washer was in spin cycle, this shut the wash operation down.

My range stopped working one day and I went on Angie's List to research large appliance repair companies after having no luck going through Maytag. Better Home App...was very professional and they sent a tech out that afternoon (Bob) to look at it and give me an estimate. Bob knew exactly what was wrong with it and went to the back of the range and took the cover off to show me the burnt wires/cord. He ordered the parts and came back out the following week to install them.
Description of Work: They had to install a new cord and another electrical part that burnt up due to previous installation from another company.

The service man arrived on time and diagnosed the problem quickly since it is fairly common in 8 year old Maytag refrigerators. He melted the ice build up inside the back panel in the freezer and replaced the part. The service man was very nice and polite and worked efficiently. He had the part with him so he fixed the problem right away.

The entire process from first phone call to installation and bill payment was smooth, hassle-free and there were not surprises.
Description of Work: Placed call to Better Homes and a tech came out the next day. The front load Fridigaire washer was 1 1/2 yrs old and the warranty was for only one year. The washer would not operate and would not even display any error codes. Chris quickly diagnosed a non-functioning motherboard (electronic face with all the operating functions). He ordered the part which was in stock within FL. Lynn called next day and Chris returned the following day promptly as scheduled. He installed the new motherboard quickly and efficiently.
