Service was excellent! I was so pleased at how quickly the problem was diagnosed and that the dryer could still be repaired. It is a 35 year old Maytag that will now be useful for many years to come.

They came out and ran a diagnostic on my refrigerator to see why it was running all the time. It was leaking freon. He didn't try to sell me, was up front and honest and told me I needed a new refrigerator. He was right on time, and called before he came. One person, professional all the way through, I was very happy with them.

Good work if you can get it ,15 min easy repair using inferior generic parts billed at around 680 dollars an hour or if I am being generous 340 dollars an hour.
Description of Work: Had an igniter for my expensive GE oven repaired May of 2016-This part failed again less than 9 months later.No warranty or reduced price was offered even though it was due to the failure of an inferior generic part used to fix it the first time.There is a GE replacement part that should have been used initially but they instead spliced in a generic part ,which they also used a second time.This generic part was marked up 350%($20 part marked up to $74) and I am sure will fail within a year again.So not only did I not get a price break but I was charged 10% MORE than 9 months earlier.

Hi, I'm not sure we're you have received your information???? First off we DO NOT use generic parts EVER. Also when you called to scedule the appointment you had said that we were out about 9 months ago for what you think was the same problem. At that time I told you there was NO warranty. Our warranty is clearing stated on every receipt. You still made the appointment to have the tec come out ( you could of clearly picked another company if you chose ) as far as ignitors failing in stoves that is the number one problem because of usage. In gas stove it is ignitors and with electric stove it is elements. Our cost to repair an ignitors is FAR less expensive then other companies ( maybe you should have checked around we are about $20 - $25 .00 cheaper) We are very proud of the work we do . As you can see we do excellent service and repair. We have been awarded the Super Service Award 3 years in a row . And have an A rating with Angies List and also the an A rating with the BBB. Thanks and have a great week.....

They found a wire that had worn and blew the main circuit board. Very responsive and fixed within4 days. They had to get a part.Yeah! The only issue was that there were no afternoon appointments but I was able to work around that. I would definitely use them again and recommend them to friends. Good experience.

I was able to get an appointment the day after I called at a time convenient for me. Scott arrived on time, determined quickly what part needed to be replaced and better yet - had the part needed in his truck. He tested the repair to make sure that there was no underlying issue that would cause the new part to fail. Pricing was more than fair. I intend to hire them again and I would recommend this company to anyone looking for professional, reasonable appliance repair.

OK - Repairman showed up at the early part of the time window the company provided and the company dispatcher called prior to the repairman arriving, adding that if I was not prepared, she would have to send the repairman to another job and have him return later (of course I was "prepared" - I had taken the day off from work to accommodate their repairman's availability). I had used the "contact us" feature on company's web-site to send a detailed description of the problem and the steps that I had already taken toward the repair. The repairman poked around and confirmed that there was no continuity for two of the four wires that run between freezer's control board and the door control (something I had already tested and knew). While I thought there might be a way for him to replace the wiring harness in the door, that was not the case - he said that he would have the staff at the company look into whether there was a replacement part available and have someone call me; he was in and out in about 20 minutes. The following day was Thanksgiving and when I had not received a follow-up call by the end of the day on the following Friday, I decided to fix the problem myself. The task involved removing and disassembling the door, cutting out a 4" x 6" piece of insulation near the lower door hinge to access the wiring, cutting out the damaged section of the wiring and soldering new wires in place, and then refilling the insulation holes with spray foam. I added some additional shielding around the new wires to keep them from being crimped by the hinge in the future (that was the cause of the problem - the original routing of the wires is poorly designed). I reconnected the wiring clips, confirmed that all wires had continuity, and plugged the freezer back in. It now functions properly, cycling on and off to maintain the correct specified temperature. On the following Monday, I called the company to let them know that I had fixed the problem myself and did not need any additional follow-up. The woman who answered the phone said that she was planning to call me, but said that the only way to repair the unit was to replace the entire door, which she said would have cost as much as a new freezer. In the end, I paid $65.41 for the repairman's house call. One thing that you should note is that the company offers a $10.00 coupon on its web-site - but that coupon applies "to repair services only" which they interpret to mean services performed only after their repairman diagnoses an issue - not the house call. Apparently, the management thinks that it is clear to everyone that there are two distinct parts to their services: a house call to determine what the problem is and a separate repair charge to actually fix the problem. If they can't fix your issue, the coupon has no value. Overall, I would rate my experience with the company as satisfactory, but not exceptional.
Description of Work: Diagnose and repair of a stand-up freezer that had gone into "safe mode" where the freezer compressor ran continuously and the door panel control unit had gone dark.

Thank you for contacting us. Yes we were closed the day after Thanksgiving ( to be with family) . As far as the fix that you performed we would not have done that ...we contacted the manufacturer regarding your appliance and they said that a new door would be needed for that unit. We asked about doing just what you had done and they suggested that not to be repaired that way because it would not have lasted and is dangerous . Our coupon does only go toward repair. . Thanks again and if you have any questions please give us a call.

Technician arrived on time( 4 hour window). He diagnosed the problem(blocked drain) quickly, removed the ice and cleared the drain, No complaint on the service aspect of the call. Angies list advertises a diagnostic service call of $65.00 for 50.00. Actually their minimum service call is $105.00 of which 39.95 is a travel expense. No parts were used. Dave's base is 7 miles from my house and I feel 39.95 is an excessive travel expense. I feel I was mislead by the advertisement whic stated the cost of the diagnostic service call was $65.00 when actually it was $105.00.

Thank you for taking the time to post a review . I'm not sure we're you are getting you service call expence figures. We charge $39.95 to come to the house ( no matter were you live if it 1 mile or 20 miles from our base location) then if you DO NOT get the appliance repaired we charge a $22.00 fee to diagnose the appliance. The Angies List deal that we run is a $10.00 off your total bill credit. So you are saving 10.00 off of having your appliance looked at usually it'[Member Information Removed] $65.00 if you do not get your appliance repaired. I'm not sure were you are getting your figures. .... Have a great week

My washer was not completing the spin cycle and I would have soaking wet clothes. We called and he came out on time on the day scheduled. My receipt says. " complete diagnostic test Everything checks good. Possible problem with main control" A few days later it was laundry day. Everything is NOT good. I still have soaking clothes and am now out $62.00 …for what? He drove 20min and plugged something in and pushed a reset button? So the receipt says all service guaranteed 30 days. I called asking if I could have some of the money back. The woman was pretty jumpy with me and I am definitely getting no money back. I need a new main control which is the price of a new basic machine. It stinks to pay $62 and have nothing actually fixed, even temporarily. Wouldn't the diagnostic test be guaranteed? That was $22 of my bill, the other $39 was the trip charge.

Our service is guaranteed for 30 days. Your receipt said you may need a control board ( which you do ) . When the tech is at a customers home and the unit is working there is nothing to replace. Our trip charge is 39.95 plus $22.00 to diagnosis the problem if you do not get the unit repaired. If you would decide to repair the unit that amount is deducted. We are very proud of all of the work we do and have been with Angies List for over 5 years and have an A rating. We also have a A rating with the BBB. We are sorry you feel you should get a refund but this is what we charge every customer for a trip charge and diagnosis ( which we explain to every customer before they book an appointment) . Thanks

I was very impressed with the professionalism my request was handled. I found out today in the morning that our very old (probably 19 yo - we got it with the house) dishwasher was not working. So I just sent messages through the web-site to schedule appointments with couple companies. "Dave's" was the first one who gave me a call back, and right now it is 7.15 am. The lady on the phone checked right away while still on the phone - if they would be able to get parts. And after that she gave me an advice to get the new dishwasher, as it would be either impossible or very expensive to get parts for the dishwasher as it was an old model. I'm happy that I didn't need to waste time or money. Thank you!

We actually had 2 visits. The first he quickly identified that a part for the ignition of the oven was failing, and showed me what he was seeing. He replaced the part and the stove worked perfectly the next time it was used, which it hadn't been doing for a couple of months. Unfortunately the stove/ oven went completely dead the next time it was used. I called Dave's again and explained what happened. He came out again and quickly found the melted connector for the electrical cord. This problem was unrelated to the first, and I found out later my wife had thought she smelled plastic burning when she used the oven. He explained everything during both visits and took care of the items right away. I really appreciated his ability to identify the problems quickly and fix them on the spot.
