APPLIANCE REPAIR QUESTIONS

Q. SHOULD I REPAIR OR REPLACE MY APPLIANCE?

A. Make this decision based on how old your appliance is and the extent of the problem that needs repairs. Call for same-day service and find out what needs to be done to make repairs. Then consult with the well-trained technicians about which is the better choice.

Appliances have an expected working lifetime. If your appliance is only a couple of years old, it is likely that when you make repairs the machine will function well for quite some time. And when the appliance is near the end of its expected working life, any repairs will likely be followed by more and more. When this is the case, the more economical choice will be to buy a new appliance when your budget allows.

Here is a list of average household appliance lifetimes:

Dishwasher: 10 years
Washer: 11 years
Dryer: 14 years
Refrigerator: 15 years
Gas Ovens: 15 years
Electric Stoves: 15 years
Freezers: 15 years

Q. DO TECHNICIANS HAVE WARRANTIES OR GUARANTEES?

A. For parts and labor, local technicians provide a warranty. All parts for Frigidaire, Kenmore, KitchenAid, GE, LG, Sub-Zero, Whirlpool and other popular appliance brands are from the manufacturer. They use these to maintain quality and to keep your warranty in effect. If you have had repairs and any problem persists, call right away.

A. Licensed repairmen stock the service vans with more than 90% of the most frequently used manufacturer parts as well as all of the necessary tools to accomplish the repair services.

Q. DO REPAIRMEN OFFER SPECIFIC BLOCK OF TIME FOR AN APPOINTMENT?
