The drum of my dryer was running continually every time I closed the door. I called Sam’s Appliance Repair and he came the same day. After assessing the issue, he ordered the parts needed and came back the next day to complete the repairs. He was professional, knowledgeable, and prompt.

Sam replaced our oven heating element in our 28yr old oven and the drain tube on our dishwasher. He was very prompt, easy to work with and I appreciated his advice about which appliances to repair vs replace. For example we also have a cooktop issue where the replace option is a better option there.

Sam’s Appliance Repair for the win! I called and they had an opening just a few hours later. They came out, diagnosed the problem with our older Samsung dryer, and even had the parts needed to fix it on the spot. Very kind, professional, and knowledgeable. I will absolutely recommend them and use them again! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
