Find a Certified Appliance Repair Technician Near You
While many appliance problems can be fixed DIY, sometimes it's safer and smarter to call a professional. Enter your location below to find certified repair technicians in your area.
When Should You Call a Technician?
- Gas Leak Smells: Never DIY gas lines. If you smell gas near your oven or dryer, turn off the supply and call a pro immediately.
- Complex Electrical Issues: If your appliance keeps tripping the breaker or showing signs of burnt wires, you need an expert.
- Sealed System Refrigerant: Fixing sealed refrigerator coils or adding freon legally requires a certified EPA technician.
- Under Warranty: DIY repairs can void an active manufacturer or extended warranty. Check your coverage first!
- Repeated Failed Attempts: If you've replaced a part and the problem persists, a tech can properly diagnose hidden issues.
Questions to Ask Before Hiring
- Are you licensed and insured? Protect yourself from liability if they damage your property during the repair.
- Do you offer a warranty on labor? A reputable technician should stand by their work for at least 30 to 90 days.
- Do you service my specific brand? Some techs specialize in Whirlpool/Maytag, while others handle high-end brands like Sub-Zero or Bosch.
- What is the service call fee? Always ask if the diagnostic fee gets applied to the final repair cost.
- Will you use OEM parts? Original Equipment Manufacturer parts are usually more reliable than aftermarket alternatives.
