Charged a service fee. Said it’s toO expensive to repair. Charged me. After looking around I called back to have it repaired snd he said he can’t fix it , he doesn’t know how. He’s a scam. He bought out George Behrens and he’s a TOTAL scam. Happened to 2 other people I know as well. DO NOT CALL
Description of Work: Could not do it

I left a voicemail with A Behrens Appliance Service and he returned my call very promptly. He explained that he does not handle gas leaks and referred me to someone who would. Very professional, very helpful, I would definitely call him again.

He quickly figured out the problem and it was a $92 repair, much much better than I was expecting!
Description of Work: My dishwasher wasn't working. I called him and got a call back quickly. He set an appointment for the next day from 2 to 4, but called my boyfriend at 11 and said he was on the way over. Luckily, my boyfriend was at home.

Before replacing the part, he ran some tests and determined that the dishwasher had another problem, and that given everything that was wrong with it, it would not be economically worthwhile to fix it (would spend more fixing it than if I bought a new dishwasher -- and this one was over 10 years old, so it made sense). I appreciated his honesty. This way, I only paid for the service call.
Description of Work: Dishwasher was filling with water when off and was leaking -- Before he came, he and I had determined a part that needed to be replaced.

Mr. Behrens is a jewel and a repair genius. I was fully prepared to hear that the 6 year old vent would need to be replaced but I was sure wrong. As always, he returned my call promptly, arrived next day and on time and got straight to work. He dismantled the broken system which was in a cabinet in a kitchen island and actually, by gosh, fixed it! It was a cam or something. Then he carefully placed foil tape to seal off any leaking air (probably 15 minutes or more) and when he was done, everything worked perfectly (or as perfectly as this poorly-designed piece of junk will ever work.) He's just a top notch service person and an appliance god.
Description of Work: My GE Downdraft ventilation system in my cooking island was not working properly... or at all. The motor wouldn't shut off so I had to leave it unplugged and unusable.

Mr. Behrens is a no-nonsense workman and genuine professional. He returned my call promptly, arrived on time, got immediately to work and worked efficiently and steadily until he had arrived at a diagnosis. He showed me what was wrong with the icemaker that was not fixable (I already knew they only last 5 - 7 years.) He had the necessary replacement on his truck and had the freezer fixed, reassembled and ready to go in less than an hour. THEN, within about 2 weeks we noticed that the icemaker was periodically shutting itself off (the bar would go up into the off position for no apparent reason.) When this had happened several times, I called Mr. Behrens and told him what was going on. It had been about 34 days since he installed it. He came out the next morning and replaced it again without charge.

The parts had to be ordered, which took a week. The job was done well and was a lot less expensive than a new range that would have cost a $1000.00 or more.

He came up and I had a problem and he did not exactly know what the problem was but he thought he knew it. But the wonderful thing was he came out later when I was having a similar problem and turned out there was nothing wrong with it at all. So he just said to call him if that happens again. He didn?t charge me a nickel for that call and I think that was great. He is a little grouch because he is getting old but that's okay.

Extremely well. Refrigerator stopped cooling on Sunday, 9-7. We called Monday morning and our call was returned in 10 minutes. Mr. Behens came over 20 minutes later and it took him 20 minutes to find and fix the problem. The service call was charged at $64.00--the part was $58.00--the labor charge was $11.00 and the rest was sales tax. We will certainly call him the next time we need service on an appliance. We were impressed with his overall knowledge and efficiency.

It all went very smoothly. George was able to replace the broken part in our oven pretty quickly and put everything back in its place before he left. He also gave us some tips on how to make our oven ?set up? a little more safe ? we bought an old house and there are some things that apparently our home inspection did not call out.
