Who handles what in Philadelphia

Gas appliances in Philadelphia run on service from Philadelphia Gas Works, and electric ones from PECO. If a gas range or dryer smells of gas, leave and call the utility from outside. Appliance repair is not a state-licensed trade in Pennsylvania, so get the company's full name and a written estimate.

Homes in Philadelphia: what pros run into

Much of the older city has combined sewers, and the Water Department's Green City, Clean Waters plan uses rain gardens and other green infrastructure to cut overflows. Philadelphia Gas Works is the largest city-owned gas utility in the country.

Manayunk's houses climb steep hills above the Schuylkill River and the old canal. Narrow stairs and tight kitchens in older buildings make moving a fridge or range difficult, so repairing in place often makes sense.

Dryer vents clogged with lint are a fire risk year-round. Have the full run cleaned if drying times creep up. Summers are hot and humid, and the city usually sees a string of days above 90 degrees each year.

A little prep helps

Clear the area around the appliance so the tech can pull it out if needed.

When it is time for a pro

You may want a appliance repair company if you notice any of these:

  • Washer won't drain or spin
  • Dryer runs but doesn't heat
  • Dishwasher leaves standing water

From call to visit

Questions from Philadelphia residents

Which parts of Philadelphia can you help with?

Yes, as long as a pro is free. Philadelphia ZIP codes 19102, 19103, 19104, 19106, 19107 and others are in range, and that includes Germantown, Manayunk, Kensington and Chestnut Hill.

What info should I have ready?

Brand, model and serial number from the label, plus a description of the problem and any error codes. The label is usually inside the door, on the frame, or on the back of the unit.

Why is my dryer taking so long?

A clogged lint screen or vent is the usual cause, and it is also a fire risk. Clean the screen, check that the outside vent flap opens, and have the duct cleaned if it stays slow.

Water is pooling under my dishwasher. What should I do?

Turn the dishwasher off and wipe up the water so it does not reach the floor below. A worn door gasket, a loose hose clamp or the wrong detergent can all cause leaks.

We are a referral service, so the pro you speak with sets the schedule and the price. Ask your questions before you agree to anything.
