Dave came out on a diagnostic call per scheduled appointment. He tested the control panel on our dishwasher and determined it needed to be replaced. We were given a follow up phone call regarding the part, cost and date for installation. The service was completed as scheduled.

He was there very briefly. He also said that when we went shopping for a refrigerator he would advise us to take a measuring tape along and make sure we have enough clearance. I thought he could have been more helpful. That figure was average. He didn't do any work on it, he pulled it out and looked. He was very quick, in and out. They came when they said they would. They were on time.
Description of Work: It was a Big Deal. He did diagnose and said we need a new refrigerator.

Terrible. He was rude and sarcastic, gave my warranty company a hard time and was very unprofessional. When I called his office to discuss my concerns she immediately started making excuses that his behavior was justified because they're too busy to deal with home warranty (he never had to wait as they answered before he was even finished so it never inconvenienced him) she tried to say they don't even take customers that use home warranty, which isn't true because I specifically told them we were using home warranty when I placed the appointment and they gave me instruction on what I'd have to do. She placed me on hold 4 times during our call because other customers were more important. I literally would rather have a broken freezer than ever hire them for anything.
Description of Work: Looked at my freezer and couldn't determine what was wrong so he decided to just order a whole new control panel.

We're very sorry that you were upset by the service. Our company does NOT do warranty work. ( after the tech was out you would have to give the information to your warranty company yourself).We use to do warranty work but have stopped because of the time constraints on the technitions. As for me putting you on hold, Yes I did I did have other customers calling and just wanted to let them know that I would be with them shortly. I'm sorry if I had to put you on hold. Our company is very proud to work with Angie's List and as you can see we have an excellent rating with them. We have received the Super Service award 2 years running and are very proud of that. Our company has been is business for over 47 years and we strive for fast,friendly,affordable appliance repair. And as for giving us an F for price, you were never charge for anything. Sorry again

It went very smoothly. He knew exactly what to do and recommended not trying to clean the drain pan itself. Since the refrigerator is 45 yrs old, you can't get parts for it. So he advised leaving the rest alone. Very pleased with their communications and service.

I had a 13-year old squeaky dryer. He quickly took apart the unit and found the front seal was almost gone and the primary ball bearing needed some grease. He replaced the seal, cleaned out the unit and applied the grease. He was done in about 40 minutes.

Everything thing went very smoothly. I received a call when he was on his way. He had the replacement part. He had to take apart portions of the freezer to defrost sections of it, and move the entire until unit to replace the part. He was very professional, personable and knowledgeable.
Description of Work: We had some water collecting and freezing on the bottom of our freezer. We did some online research to discover that there was a part that had been redesigned by the manufacturer to address this as a known problem. Dave's Appliance replaced the drain tub on our refrigerator with the improved part, and we have been trouble fee ever since.

Well I just wanted to say that I wasn't impressed by my first impression. I contacted the company via the internet because I am on the phone a lot at work and I really appreciate companies who give us the opportunity to communicate and/or schedule via email or messages. The first thing they did was tell me to CALL them. If I had time to call I would have!! I hate when companies do that. They are obviously reading their messages because they were able to respond promptly...so why not schedule or give other info via message too? Then she got annoyed when I asked if Monday was the earliest they had...it's Wednesday, so that is pretty far away. So will I use them in the future? You should provide a 'not sure' option.
Description of Work: Nothing yet, the contact was about my dishwasher.

Thank you for contacting us. The reason I said to call us was because it is much faster, I have my phone on me 24-7 and can schedule a service appointment sooner. I do not always answer my emails as fast. We do schedule a lot of calls via email so that is not a problem. The customers just give us all the information and what time is good with them. The reason I was confused about Monday was because you said you wanted to schedule an appointment for Friday 20 th or Monday 23 rd. So I assumed Monday would have been perfect. Thanks and have a great week

The service tech was punctual, friendly, knowledgable, and took care of the problem. But the price was outrageous! He was probably in and out in 15 minutes -- 20 minutes tops, and the total labor charges were $106. That was broken down into a $40 trip fee (fair enough), and a $66 labor charge for the repair. Supposing the whole time at my house was 20 minutes, that's an hourly labor rate of $198. About twice as expensive as the hourly rate of good mechanic! I won't be calling Dave's Appliance again.
Description of Work: Repaired our Whirlpool gas dryer -- the electromagnetic coil that controls the gas flow had failed. The tech also suggested replacing a piece relating to the belt that rotates the dryer barrel, on the grounds that it might fail soon and damage the belt, so I took his advice on that.

We are very sorry you were not happy with the cost. Before we do any work we go over the cost with the customer to let them know how much everything will cost. Our pricing is lower them most appliance repair companies ( we pride ourselves with excellent work at a low price). The tech was there longer then 20 minutes, he had to completely take apart the entire dryer to replace the parts , he also had to vacuum the unit out. Please call other appliance companies and see what they charge because you will see our prices are very fair. Thanks

Scott determined that the bearings were beginning to go and it would not be worth the cost of repairing it so I just paid his diagnostic fee. I appreciated his honesty.

He showed up promptly and basically told us that they were unable to fix it. It was beyond repair. But he was prompt about it and he came quickly and told us that. So it was good. He was very professional and courteous and told us right away. So he didn't waste our time and his. It was good. I'd use him again if I had something go wrong. He charged us $75 or $80.

This was the second time we used them. They did a very nice job. We had some issues with the ice maker and what have you. The fan was rattling and all kinds of stuff, things that I don't necessarily know about. I'm pretty good, pretty handy myself, but I don't know about refrigerators with that kind of detail. So he came in and took care of it. It was very well done. He was very professional and on time. That was the second time he was there. I would use that person again, absolutely. They're good. They're really good. Everything is fine and everything is working. Their responsiveness is very good. In fact, I called them over the weekend and they got in there.

We contacted Dave's Appliance on a Saturday and Lisa replied to my inquiry within an hour or two with a price quote, etc. She was very accommodating in working with us to schedule the service at our convenience and kept us apprised of their schedule and availability. Dave was on-time, professional, and efficient in completing the installation. We had contacted another provider first (whom we didn't hire) and the difference in responsiveness and professionalism was night and day between that provider and Dave's Appliance Service. We'll definitely use Dave's again. Thank you!

The service technician started by assessing the problem with the oven and found he needed to order a part. The he went to put a new agitator bar in the washer. Lisa called within an hour to schedule the follow up appointment to put in the new oven fan. I love how quickly they order the needed parts and set up those follow-ups! In the mean time, our refrigerator stopped cooling. So when the technician came to repair the oven, he assessed that and thought a replacement circuit board would do the trick. So once again, they ordered the part and made a follow-up. Then I used the oven and it started making a grinding noise again. So when he returned to fix the fridge, he looked at the oven and the blade from a different fan had fallen off and just needed to be reattached. And then the washing machine started giving us an error message. The soap dispenser was not working, and the mating would just stop. Well, the technician assessed that problem and they ordered the part. The the circuit board that was ordered for the fridge was installed, but there was another board that was also not working, so they had to order the part. Parts, parts, parts! When they all came in, they were installed and everything works now!
Description of Work: We had three major appliances that needed repair in three weeks! Our oven needed a new convection fan, our built in GE refrigerator stopped cooling, and the washing machine soap dispenser stopped working.
