Would definitely recommend Bowmans, they were prompt, professional and knowledgeable. Jayden did a great job diagnosing the old washing machine that I had. Company policy prevents them from being a defacto adjuster for the insurance I had (understandable) but he was able to help me navigate their requirements with excellence!

I’ve used Bowman’s twice now, and both experiences have been exceptional. The service was quick, kind, and completely transparent. It’s never easy when an invaluable appliance breaks down, but they truly made the process as smooth and stress-free as possible. We love supporting small, family-owned businesses and highly recommend Bowman’s.

Local family business which we always enjoy supporting. The Tech was Alex and he was on time, friendly, and professional. He repaired the washing machine quickly and then ran some tests on it to ensure it was working correctly. I would highly recommend them if you have a home appliance that needs repaired.

You don't know a service until you actual use them, but let me tell you, this company knows exactly what they're doing. I would recommend them to all my friends and family, but I want the community to know if you're looking for reliable and quality service, look no further. Bowman's truly is top of the line. Support…
