Chicago homes, up close
Greystones, row houses with limestone fronts, line streets in North Lawndale, Woodlawn and Logan Square. The Chicago bungalow, a one-and-a-half-story brick house, was built by the tens of thousands from about 1910 to 1940, and a ring of neighborhoods is still called the Bungalow Belt.
Most of the city has combined sewers, so a heavy summer storm can push water back up through basement floor drains. Shared laundry rooms are common in older buildings, so renters should check whether the machines belong to the landlord or a vendor.
Winter is hard on dryer vents, and a blocked vent makes the dryer run long and hot. Cleaning it helps. The Deep Tunnel project, formally the Tunnel and Reservoir Plan, stores stormwater underground to reduce flooding and overflows.
Who handles what in Chicago
Ask whether the tech handles your brand and model before booking. Appliance repair is not a state-licensed trade in Illinois, so get the company's full name and a written estimate. For gas leaks or odors, contact Peoples Gas first.
How the connection works
- Call or use the form and describe the problem.
- A local appliance repair company who works in Chicago gets your request.
- If the timing and quote work for you, they schedule the job.
A little prep helps
If water is involved, shut off the supply valve behind the unit and keep towels nearby.
Questions from Chicago residents
Is my microwave safe to repair?
Microwaves store high voltage even when unplugged, so internal repairs are a job for a trained tech. Many over-the-range models are worth fixing; small countertop units often are not.
Do you cover Logan Square and Rogers Park?
Most likely. We cover Logan Square, Lincoln Park, Pilsen and Hyde Park and other parts of Chicago, across 60018, 60106, 60601, 60602, 60603 and others. If no one is available, you will hear that from us up front.
My range burner will not light but clicks. What is going on?
Food or moisture on the burner cap and igniter is a frequent cause. Let it dry and clean it gently. If it keeps clicking or never catches, have a tech look, and stop using it if you smell gas.
Can I get a same-day appliance repair?
Sometimes. It depends on which independent techs have openings and whether the part is on the truck. Say so if food is spoiling or water is leaking, and ask what the earliest window is.
Neighbors with the same issue? In buildings close together, that is worth mentioning when you call.
