Nathan has done repair at our home before. We find him knowledgeable and courteous. The cost of repair was outrageous. THAT WAS NOT NATHAN'S FAULT. Should we need repair in the future we will likely try another appliance repair bc of the difference in repair cost. We originally called another repair service who…

Last two technicians were wonderful, very pleasant and cleaned up work space before leaving my home. The washer works great without any issues. Fortunately I have a 5-year warranty on my washer so I did not have to pay anything for the repair. They replaced the actuator and one other part I can't remember the name.
