washing machine repair

After a week of house guests I was busily trying to get through a pile of laundry when my washing machine stopped working. I checked on-line for an appliance repair person and came across "Homestars". I read the reviews of Joe's work and make an early call. Within an hour I had a call back from Joe and an appointment for early afternoon.

Joe diagnosed the problen within seconds of opening up the front of the machine. He had all the replacement parts in his vehicle so there was no ordering and waiting for parts to arrive. The entire "visit" took about 30 minutes and the machine is working like new.

In addition, Joe is a very pleasant man with a very professional manner. I certainly will call him if I have other appliance concerns and will definitely recommend him to my friends.

Thanks Joe.

Repair washing machine

My washing machine broke on Sunday. Not having a repair man I used the Homestars website for the first time and read about Jo. Though the last person who wrote a review about Jo wasn’t happy I read the other reviews and they all seemed very happy with his work. I called Jo this morning and he was able to come over within a few hours. Like others have said he was professional and personable. He was able to repair my machine straight away as he had parts in his truck and the final price was very reasonable. It turns out his has serviced my neighbours appliances for years. I will definitely call Jo if another appliance breaks and recommend his services to friends and neighbours.

Repair dishwasher

Well, everybody seems to love this guy, but I beg to differ. My Kenmore dishwasher failed to drain intermittently. Joe came promptly, cleaned it out, checked things, ran a diagnostic. He was polite & friendly, said it was now fine, left. The next day the dishwasher again wouldn't drain. I called Joe, he seemed really sorry, but said he couldn't help, must be the timer, told me I had to call Kenmore. {WTF? He knew it was a Kenmore before he came, if he can't get parts for Kenmore he should have warned me.} Anyway, I called Kenmore, they replaced the DRAIN PUMP (not the timer) and the dishwasher now runs fine. (They explained the pump was overheating, which was why the problem was intermittent.) On top of all that, Kenmore's service call cost less than Joe's! I won't be calling the Appliance Guy again. Sorry to rain on the parade....

Company Response

It is very important to me that my customers are happy. I am sorry that your dishwasher acted up again. But after I cleaned out the dishwasher sump area, it drained perfectly for me several times. Since it worked for me at the time I didn't think it was necessary to put in a new pump or electonic board(Timer). Kenmore's(Sears) service call is 79.95 and mine is 55.00 to 65.00 depending on what area you are in. I can only hope that we can talk and that you can give me the oportunity to see if there is anything more I can do for you here.

Stove,Dishwasher

Our refrigerator died on Sunday night and we were desparate to have it fixed first thing Monday morning to save all of the food. Joe rearranged his day to take care of us and was fast at the repair once he got on site. Also fixed our dishwasher while he was here. This is our second great experience with Joe the Appliance Guy - we will refer Joe without hesitation.

Fridge repair

Water was collecting in the upper part of our fridge, just below the top-mounted freezer. We called The Appliance Guy based on the high rating of customers in HomeStars. Joe came the same day as our call, and efficiently diagnosed and cleared a plugged drain line. He made custom modifications to increase the heat available to the drain to inhibit the reformation of a blockage. During the repair process, I observed Joe's methodical approach and professionalism. At the same time, we chatted about his extensive experience and changes that have occurred in appliances, and their repair, over the years. He communicated clearly as he explained in some detail the nature of our present problem and the chance of a recurrence. The fee for his service was quite reasonable. In summary, Joe deserves to have such a high rating.

Our fridge was going on and off and we weren't sure why. Joe came and diagnosed the problem within minutes - and fixed it. His rates were fair and he is pleasant and professional. I would strongly recommend him.

Washing Machine Repair

I called The Appliance Guy after our older top-load washing machine stopped spinning. Joe came by the next day and fixed it quickly for a reasonable price. This guy's a real pro - congratulations on a well deserved 'Best Of 2009'!

service call

My gas dryer broke down in the middle of a messy renovation. I called Joe in the morning, he was here by 3 pm even though Monday is his busiest day. Unfortunately the news was not good, but I wanted to comment anyway. Joe was a pleasure to deal with, polite, knowledgeable, apologetic for the bad news...he made an extra effort to do something else for me to make the installation of a new dryer easier. I appreciated his quick arrival (sense of urgency) and his efforts. Thanks Joe!!!

appliance repair

A gentleman. Not too intimidating, reasonable, helpful. Joe did what others would not touch, ie. fixed simple electronic problem that saved us lots of money and reversed fridge door. He is busy and justifiably proud of his work and reputation.
