How long it takes to fix an appliance?
The time it takes to fix an appliance can vary significantly based on several key factors. Typically, for straightforward issues like minor repairs or routine maintenance, our technicians can complete the work within one visit, which usually lasts about one to two hours.

What are common signs that my appliance needs repair?
Common signs include unusual noises, leaking water, error codes on the display, appliances not working at all, or items not heating properly (like in a dryer or oven). If you notice any unusual behavior, it may be time to contact a professional.
How often should I have my appliances serviced?
It’s recommended to have major appliances serviced at least once a year. Regular maintenance can extend their lifespan and prevent costly repairs. However, it’s best to check the manufacturer’s guidelines for specific recommendations.
Why is my washing machine making a loud noise?
Loud noises can be caused by several factors, including unbalanced loads, worn bearings, or foreign objects stuck in the drum. Inspect the machine for obvious signs, and consider calling a technician if the issue persists.
How can I prevent my refrigerator from leaking?
To prevent leaks, regularly clean the defrost drain, check door seals for damage, ensure the drain pan is positioned correctly, and replace the water filter if necessary.
What should I do if my oven is not heating?
First, check if it’s plugged in and if the circuit breaker has tripped. If everything seems fine, you may have a faulty heating element, igniter, or thermostat. Professional evaluation is recommended for a thorough diagnosis.
Can I fix my appliance myself?
Many minor issues can be addressed DIY, such as cleaning filters or replacing light bulbs. However, for significant repairs, especially those involving electrical components, it’s safer to call a professional to avoid risks.
