Jim Wadding is absolutely wonderful and would highly recommend. He came and looked at my washer; and ended up saving me a ton of money. Such an honest repairman in giving me his advice and service. This guy, seriously, deserves 20 stars if it was possible. He only works on washers and dryers - I believe only older models (for washers, top load with an agitator).

Great! The old dryer (20+ years old?) in our house started making a terrible thumping noise. Jim took it apart, checked everything out, cleaned out lint built-up behind the drum, and oiled some parts inside. Reasonable price. Fast work. Noise gone! He only works on older washers/dryers, but that works well for us as we are still using the older machines that were in the house when we bought it!

Easy to reach; easy to book; prompt, courteous service. This guy is serious about his work and knows what he's doing. Replaced one broken part with new and now dryer heats up again. He worked fast and I feel, since he had to travel between Greenfield and North Hills, he charged a fair price. Extra credit: he was willing to drive from the other side of town to help me out and said he'd come back if I needed him for anything else. He also cleaned out the inside workings of my dryer before closing it up.

I called Jim left a message and explained the problem. He was prompt and very nice. Though it wasn't a washer he works on he did give me the name of someone who does. I would call him again. He works on many other appliances.

The repair went great, he bought the part then came to our house and installed it, our washer is now working again and not leaking! Went much better than if I would have gone with another repair place.

I left a message during the day and he called me back that evening to schedule an appointment the next evening. Arrived on time. He disassembled the drier to look at all possibly affected parts. It turned out out to be our motor and blower were the issues, but because the parts were discontinued he was upfront on the possible repair cost. He explained everything as he went through the machine and gave recommendations for future use. We would definitely call him in the future.

called Jim. Found him on here. I told him what I'd done to try to get to the problem. He said it sounded like a fuse was bad. He said he could come on Saturday morning. Jim called Saturday morning and said he was on his way. When he got here he looked the dryer over, took the back off and tested the fuse. It was bad. He had one in his truck. He installed it and we were back in business. He gave us some great advice on how to care for our washer and dryer to prevent future problems. Great guy and reasonably priced.
Description of Work: Our gas dryer stopped heating. I checked the vent and the igniter. Both were fine. I didn't want to check any further.

Well, dryer it had a bad coil, he diagnosed the problem quickly, also conducted maintenance on the belt driver, which needed lubricant. He was concerned he would need to replace that part too, but was able to free it up to save us the cost of that part replacement.

Jim was incredibly responsive, got back to my initial phone call within a few hours and scheduled me for the next day. We had a water leak in our basement and our dryer had stopped working as a result. Things have been quite chaotic since, but working with Jim couldn't have been easier. He correctly assessed the problem, gave us a fair rate and even told us about an additional piece that was necessary for the dryer but one that was fairly cheap to purchase from your local hardware store and easy to replace. In my opinion, that is how you know you found a good repairman- someone who finds everything that needs to be fixed but also finds ways to make it as cost effective for the customer. He was prompt with ordering the parts and returned to our home to complete the repair when promised. I would recommend him to everyone and will not use anyone else should I need help with my washer and dryer in the future. If you are looking for an honest, reasonable, prompt repairman, look no further. Thanks again Jim!

Jim arrived a half hr early and couldn't have been nicer. He diagnosed the problem within 5 minutes and was fixed within 10. Very reasonable price and he broke down how he calculated it. I researched online after and the amount he stated for the part matched the prices I found. I would highly recommend using his services.
Description of Work: I called Jim on a Monday and he returned my call later that day. We agreed that he would come on Wednesday at 7pm. My gas dryer wasn't heating. The thermal fuse ended up needing replaced.

I called and left a message. Jim got back to me within a reasonable time (it WAS a holiday weekend) and I told him the symptoms over the phone and made an appointment. He came at the appointed time, and he had correctly diagnosed the problem and had the parts with him. He was fast and courteous. I will definitely call him again.
