Quick answers
Why is my fridge leaking water?
A clogged defrost drain or a cracked water line to the ice maker are common causes. Check the drip pan and the line behind the fridge.
Do you cover May Valley and Richmond Annex?
We look for independent pros across Richmond, including May Valley, Belding Woods, Park Plaza and Atchison Village, and ZIP codes 94801, 94803, 94804, 94805, 94806. If nobody's available, we'll tell you. If you're close to a ZIP code line, mention your cross street when you call.
My freezer is frosting up. Is that a repair?
A thin layer is normal, but thick frost on the back wall often points to a defrost heater, timer or sensor that has stopped working. A door that doesn't seal can cause it too, so check for a torn gasket first.
What should a appliance repair company know about homes in Richmond?
The Kaiser shipyards built 747 ships here during World War II. Atchison Village was built as wartime housing. Marina Bay was redeveloped from shipyard land in the 1980s and 1990s. Mention your street and the age of the house when you call.
Does appliance repair in Richmond need a permit?
Some jobs do and many small repairs don't. In Richmond, permits are handled by the City of Richmond Building Services Division, and the appliance repair company can tell you if your job needs one.
If the problem changes before the visit, mention it when the pro reaches out.
