What customers said about washing machine repair
High-Q Appliance RepairThe service was quick and our technician explained everything. We are thankful they could arrive when they did.
EDH Appliance RepairWashing Machine would shake out of the washroom. Said I had a bent barrel and suggested buy a new washer. I bought new suspension rods but had someone else install. Works perfectly since July. Cheaper than a new washer. Do not recommend.
Bowmans Appliance RepairWould 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!
Smart Tech Appliance RepairThe technician came when scheduled, diagnosed the problem, ordered the part, and returned to install it. He was very competent, and also pleasant and nice. For any problem in the future, I’ll certainly call again.
High-Q Appliance RepairFriendly repairman. Great service Explained what was going on and needed to be repaired
High-Q Appliance RepairAbel was efficient and honest. Fixed my washer but let me know it was going to go in the near future. Gave me honest opinions on my next band. I will use them again.
