Great. He responded quickly to my morning phone call and came after lunch. He knew what the problem was from my phone message and got the refrigerator working until the part which had to be ordered could be replaced. This was in two days.
Description of Work: Refrigerator repaired.

He came at the time he said he would. He quickly figured out the problem and had someone order the part right away. He came on a SATURDAY to fix the machine because he knew how desperate we were to get it fixed. He was very nice, not one of those creepy repair guys you sometimes get. He might have been slightly more expensive than some places but to me it was worth it. He did a good job, was a nice person, was local, tried to get the machine going as quickly as he could. I also really like that he picked up his own calls, not some call center in another state. He also gave me some good advice for extending the life on the machine and when we should think about replacing it. I was very happy with the service he was able to provide.
Description of Work: Our washing machine was leaking, he found the problem and fixed it.

Nice guy, but he isnt out there to save you any money. We got what we paid for - knowledge of what was wrong. He did everything we asked of him well. BUT... When he said he could fix our microwave, he never mentioned that fixing it would cost more than buying a new one. He was a nice man, but I felt like it would have been more professional to tell me this. Only lamenting the price of the fix did a friend inform me we could buy a new microwave for less. It made me feel a bit on the angry side he never mentioned it, like he was just interested in the check.
Description of Work: Our microwave went out. Mr. Jeakins came to figure out the problem.

I called two other providers before this one. One of them made me play and quot;phone tag,and quot; and I never did get a real person. The other was polite, but unable to do the work this week. When I called Mr Jeakins, at first I left a message, which he returned about an hour later. He made it over the same day, went right to work, concentrated on his task, and fixed the problem. Everything was satisfactory. I'll definitely call him if I have a problem like this again.
Description of Work: He fixed my leaking and non-functioning refrigerator.

A person came and listened to our washer and said it was a bearing going out, confirming our fears. He said the loud screech at the end of the spin cycle was bad brakes. He also said it would be cheaper to buy a new washer or cost the same as to repair it. We're running the washer until it breaks down. We'll then purchase a new one.
Description of Work: He charged us for a service call which included a 35 mile drive one way. We thought that was very reasonable.

It went very smoothly.
Description of Work: Steve came and repaired my water dispenser on my side by side refrigerator in just an hour. He also cleaned the coils and condenser. Price was VERY reasonable. I've had Steve here before to repair my clothes dryer and he did an outstanding job as well.

He honestly knows what he doing and what he is talking about. The family has been in the appliance business forever. He grew up in it. I would never call anybody else.
