Appliance repair means a technician comes to your home, tests your appliance, finds the failed part, and fixes it on the spot when possible. In Mountain View, we repair refrigerators, washers, dryers, dishwashers, ovens, stoves, ice makers, and microwaves from all major brands, with a clear price before work starts.
You don't need to haul anything to a shop. Our technicians carry common parts for the brands we see most in Mountain View homes, from Samsung and LG to Bosch and Sub-Zero. Most fixes are done in one visit.
From everyday brands to high-end built-in kitchens, one call covers every major appliance in your home.
We also repair standalone freezers, wine coolers and beverage centers, range hoods, garbage disposals, and trash compactors.
We repair all major appliance brands in Mountain View, from everyday names like Whirlpool, GE, Samsung, and LG to luxury built-in brands like Sub-Zero, Wolf, Thermador, Viking, and Miele. Many Mountain View kitchens have high-end built-in units, and our technicians know how to service them without damaging cabinets or trim.

Getting your appliance fixed takes three simple steps. You call and tell us what is wrong. A technician visits, finds the cause, and gives you a firm price. If you approve, they fix it right away with quality parts and test it before they leave.
Tell us the appliance, brand, and what it is doing. We give you the diagnostic fee and the next open time slot.
The technician tests the parts, explains the fault in plain words, and quotes the full price. No surprise charges.
Once you say yes, the part is replaced and the appliance is run through a full cycle to confirm it works.
Your appliance needs repair when it stops doing its main job or puts food, floors, or safety at risk. A fridge above 40°F, water on the floor, a dryer that won't heat, a burning smell, or a gas smell all need fast action. Small issues like odd noises often turn into big failures if you wait.
Fridge warm or water on the floor? Urgent repairs are booked first. Call now and keep your food and floors safe.
Mountain View's housing mix creates its own appliance issues. Many neighborhoods have 1950s Eichler and Mackay homes with small kitchens and tight laundry spaces. Older homes near downtown have dated wiring, and newer condos often use stacked laundry units in closets. Each of these makes airflow, venting, and access harder.
Monta Loma, Cuesta Park, and other tracts have slab-floor Eichler and Mackay homes. Slim, counter-depth fridges and dishwashers fit these kitchens but have tight clearances, so coils and vents clog faster. Leaks on slab floors can ruin flooring quickly.
Bungalows near Castro Street and Pioneer Park often have older circuits. A dryer or microwave that trips the breaker may have a fault, or the circuit may be overloaded. We test the appliance first and tell you which it is.
Most of Mountain View's water comes from the Hetch Hetchy system and is fairly soft, but some areas get blended groundwater that leaves scale in dishwashers, washers, and ice makers. More homes are also switching to induction cooktops and heat pump dryers, and we repair both.
We use professional diagnostic tools to find the real cause instead of guessing. That means fewer return trips and lower bills. Our technicians test parts with meters and sensors before replacing anything, so you only pay for the part that actually failed.
Test heating elements, fuses, switches, motors, and sensors for power and continuity.
Measure real fridge, freezer, and oven temperatures against safe and set levels.
Run brand service modes and read stored error codes on smart and electronic models.
Check gas ovens, ranges, and dryers for leaks before and after every repair.
Refrigerant work on fridges and freezers is regulated under EPA Section 608. For gas appliances, see PG&E gas safety.
These photos show typical repair jobs: testing control boards, replacing door locks and drum rollers, opening washers for bearing work, and cleaning lint from dryers. Every job starts with a diagnosis, so you only pay for the part that actually failed.
Tell us what your appliance is doing. We will quote the visit on the phone and book the first open slot, often the same day.

Repair or replace? Repair usually makes sense when the unit is under 10 years old and the fix costs less than half of a new one. If it doesn't, our technician will tell you honestly. If you do replace, compare ENERGY STAR refrigerators to cut power use. Have a question first? See our appliance repair FAQs.
While you wait for your technician, keep yourself and your home safe. Turn off power or water to the appliance, protect your food and floors, and write down any error code. If you smell gas, leave the home right away and call for help from outside.

Use the 50% rule. If the repair costs less than half the price of a new unit and the appliance is under about 10 years old, repair usually makes sense. Built-in brands like Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Thermador are almost always worth repairing because they cost so much to replace.
Yes, same-day visits are often available. We answer the phone 24/7, and the earlier you call, the better your chance of a same-day slot. Refrigerator and freezer failures are scheduled first because food is at risk.
We work on all major brands, including Whirlpool, GE, Samsung, LG, Maytag, KitchenAid, Frigidaire, Bosch, Kenmore, Electrolux, Miele, Sub-Zero, Wolf, Thermador, Viking, Dacor, and Fisher & Paykel.
Yes, a diagnostic fee covers the trip and the time to find the fault. It is quoted on the phone before we book. In many cases it is credited toward the repair if you go ahead with the fix.
Most repairs take 1 to 2 hours once the technician is on site. If a part is not on the truck, it is usually ordered and installed on a second visit within a few days.
This usually means the evaporator fan has failed or the coils are iced over from a defrost problem. Cold air is made in the freezer and blown into the fridge, so when that airflow stops, the fridge warms up first.
The most common cause is a clogged drain pump filter or a kinked drain hose. A coin, sock, or hair tie can block the pump. If the filter is clear and it still won't drain, the pump has likely failed.
