How to choose appliance repair techs
- 1
Have the model number ready
It's on a sticker inside the door or on the back. The tech can bring the right parts and may fix it in one visit.
- 2
Ask if the diagnostic fee counts toward the repair
Most companies charge to come out and diagnose. Many credit that fee if you go ahead with the repair.
- 3
Check the warranty first
If the appliance is still under the maker's warranty, the repair may have to go through an authorized service company.
- 4
Ask about the parts warranty
Ask how long the repair and the parts are guaranteed, and whether they use original manufacturer parts.
FAQ
Questions about appliance repair techs
Repair or replace an appliance?
A common rule is to replace it if the repair costs more than half the price of a new one and the appliance is past the middle of its life.
Do repair techs work on every brand?
Most independent techs work on major brands. Some high-end brands need factory-trained service. Tell them the brand when you book.
Why is my dryer taking so long to dry?
A clogged lint vent is the most common cause, and it's a fire risk. Clean the vent first; if that doesn't fix it, call a tech.
How long does an appliance repair take?
Many repairs take an hour or two. If the part has to be ordered, expect a second visit.
Does it cost anything to use Job Hound?
No. Job Hound is free for homeowners, and pros never pay for leads, so there is no lead fee baked into the price you are quoted.
