What owners said after the visit
Rated 4.5 out of 5 across 27 customer reviews. Every one of them is printed below, in full, with the date it was given.
How to read these
Each report is one visit: what the appliance was doing, what was measured, what was changed, and how the call ended. They are printed as they were given to us, first name and last initial, and the ones that are less than glowing are printed too. A wall of nothing but top marks tells a reader nothing, and a bench that has never had a part arrive in the wrong variant is a bench nobody has ever used.
Nothing in a report quotes a figure. What a visit costs belongs on the pricing sheet, where it can be checked against the invoice, and what happens after the repair belongs on the warranty sheet. If a report below describes what your own appliance is doing, the sheet for that work explains how the fault is diagnosed, and the parcel sheets cover the ground each of these kitchens sits on.
Flat-rate diagnostic visit, credited in full toward the repair if you go ahead with the work. Nothing is ordered before a written estimate is in your hands.

Both zones in the wine column had drifted to the same temperature. He found the upper evaporator fan seized and the divider seal pushed out of place. He replaced the fan, reset the seal, and the zones separated overnight.
Barnaby M.
The oven was running about thirty degrees under the setting and my baking showed it. He put a probe in the cavity, logged a full cycle, then replaced the temperature sensor and rechecked with the probe before packing up.
Lucinda P.
The column held freezer temperature but the fresh side sat near fifty. He traced it to a damper motor that had stopped opening, not the compressor we were braced for. Replaced it and watched the cabinet pull down before he left.
Corinne B.
Standing water in the sump at the end of every cycle. Instead of reaching for the pump he checked the drain loop and found it kinked behind the cabinet after a plumbing job. Straightened out, it drains clean.
Rafael D.
Two induction zones went dead after a storm while the other two carried on. He measured the supply first, then found one coil board had taken the hit. Swapped that board alone rather than the whole surface.
Bennett R.
The hood blower stuck on one speed no matter what the panel said. He traced it to the speed control module rather than the motor, which saved a far bigger part. It runs through all four speeds now.
Sullivan E.
Water was pooling under the crisper drawers every week. The drain tube had frozen solid where it leaves the evaporator. He cleared it, fitted the updated clip that keeps that section warm, and the puddles stopped.
Desmond H.
The door latch stayed locked after a self-clean even with the oven stone cold. He freed the latch motor and then replaced it. A second visit was needed for the part, which was the only frustrating part of a clear job.
Emmett K.
Condensation on the inside of the glass door every humid morning. He replaced the door seal and adjusted the hinge so it pulls fully closed. Much better, although the glass still mists a little on the worst days.
Seraphina W.
The cooling fan under our cooktop ran like a hair dryer and would not shut off. He found the thermistor reading high because the cabinet cutout was choked with dust. He cleared it, retested, and it settles down properly now.
Marisol V.
The lower rack came out gritty while the top rack was spotless. The lower spray arm bearing had worn until the arm barely turned. He replaced it, cleaned the filter and explained what had chewed the bearing up.
Hattie J.
Our built-in ran nonstop and the floor beside it was warm to stand on. The condenser was packed with lint carried in from the laundry room next door. Cleaning it brought the running time back down. I only wish I had called sooner.
Priya N.
Smoke kept rolling out at the front lip of the hood. He measured the airflow and was honest about the make-up air problem in our tight kitchen, then cleaned the baffles and got a real improvement without pushing a new hood.
Beatrix Y.
The rangetop kept clicking away after the flame had already lit. He cleaned and reseated a cracked igniter and corrected how the burner cap was sitting. The clicking stopped and the low simmer holds again.
Thaddeus O.
The steam oven refused to draw from its reservoir. He found the pump inlet blocked with scale off our hard water and showed me the descaling routine I had been quietly skipping. It fills normally again.
Nadia F.
The cabinet temperature was swinging several degrees across the day. He logged it, found the control probe loose in its clip against the liner, and secured it. Steadier now, and he did not push a part I did not need.
Judah P.
Ice maker filled and then just sat there without ever dropping a harvest. He pulled the module, showed me the stripped ejector gear, and had the replacement with him. Cubes again by the end of the same visit.
Rowan M.
Loads were coming out wet after years of coming out dry. He found the vent flap sticking and the fan tired, and replaced both. It works again, though the written estimate reached me a day later than I expected.
Malcolm T.
The convection fan had developed a grinding note that got worse every week. The bearing was going in the motor. He had one with him and changed it without marking the surround, which mattered because that cabinet is painted.
Winston C.
One zone kept reporting no pan with a pan sitting right on it. On two of them the pan really was the problem and on the third it was a tired sensor. He was straight about which was which instead of selling me a board.
Imogen S.
The downdraft rose partway and stopped. He got it moving again by freeing the lift rail, but it jammed a second time about a month later and needed another visit before the gear was actually changed. Fine ever since.
Donovan I.
The interior lighting was dead down one side. He tracked it to a chafed harness where the door hinge folds it, not the light strip everyone assumes. He repaired the harness and both sides light evenly again.
Elspeth C.
The diagnosis on our warming fridge was right, but the sealed-system part took three weeks and nobody rang me in between. The repair has held since, and he did explain what had gone wrong with the order when he came back.
Althea G.
Water on the floor at the left front corner turned out to be the door gasket rather than a split in the tub. He fitted a new gasket, ran a full cycle with paper towel laid down, and nothing came out of it.
Verena A.
The touch surface was registering presses nobody had made. He lifted the glass, found moisture wicking under the edge from a failed seal, dried it out and resealed it. No phantom presses in the weeks since.
Garrett W.
He read the broil element correctly on the first visit. What went wrong afterwards was the part arriving in the wrong variant, so the oven sat unusable for another ten days. It works properly now, but it dragged.
Odette L.
A drone in the hood that was not there last year turned out to be the backdraft damper slapping in the wind off the water. He fitted a weighted damper and the noise has gone. The lights got a proper look too.
