WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT OUR APPLIANCE REPAIRS

The service person arrived promptly shortly after we requested service. They did a diagnostic and said likely the leak came from another source, which it must have, as it works fine now. Good service, honest feedback.

I found the technician very cordial and told me what his job was. I told him about the fuse box tha that the fuses were blowing and affecting the stove. He said he was sorry that he couldn’t help me. But l am not sure whether the stove was causing the problem. I am in process of calling a electrician .
