What Our Customers Say

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my microwave is worth repairing or should be replaced?
How do I know if my microwave is worth repairing or should be replaced?
If your microwave is less than 7 years old and the repair costs less than half the price of a new unit, fixing it usually makes sense. Our technicians will give you an honest assessment of whether repair is worthwhile. We consider the age of the unit, type of problem, and cost-effectiveness of the repair. For information about our full range of services, check out our major appliance repair page.
What should I do if my garbage disposal is making unusual noises?
Stop using it immediately and turn off the power. Unusual noises often mean something is stuck in the grinding chamber or mechanical parts are wearing out. Don't try to fix it yourself – you could damage the unit or get hurt. For residents in areas like Wicker Park and Bucktown, we typically respond quickly to these urgent calls.

What specialty kitchen appliances do you repair besides microwaves and garbage disposals?
While microwaves and garbage disposals are our primary specialty appliance focus, we also handle other kitchen specialty units that require specialized knowledge. Our technicians have experience with various compact and specialty kitchen appliances that fall outside the typical major appliance category. Contact us to discuss your specific specialty appliance repair needs.
How often should I have my garbage disposal serviced?
Most disposals benefit from professional maintenance every 12-18 months, depending on how much you use them. Maintenance includes cleaning, checking all connections, and making sure everything moves smoothly. Regular service catches small problems before they become expensive repairs and extends the life of your disposal.
Do you offer warranties on specialty appliance repairs?
Yes, we provide a 90-day warranty on all specialty appliance repair work, covering both parts and labor. If something goes wrong with our repair during that time, we'll come back and fix it at no charge. This warranty shows we stand behind our work and gives you confidence in the repair.
