Kitchen Appliance Repair in West LA
West LA is mostly apartments, and the kitchens show it. The two- and three-story buildings from the 1950s and 60s in Palms and Sawtelle have galley kitchens with a freestanding fridge, a gas range and sometimes a dishwasher. Newer buildings along the Expo line come with compact stainless packages and over-the-range microwaves. The houses in Cheviot Hills, Rancho Park and Mar Vista run from original layouts to full remodels with built-in refrigerators and pro ranges. We repair all of it on site: refrigerators and freezers, ranges, ovens, cooktops, dishwashers, microwaves and range hoods. You get the price before any part is replaced.
- Warm fridge, frozen freezer, leaks, no ice. All brands, including Sub-Zero built-ins.
- Burners that click but won't light, oven side not heating.
- No heat, uneven baking, error codes on wall ovens.
- Not draining, dishes still dirty, water on the floor.
- Runs but doesn't heat, dead touch pad, built-in and drawer models.
- Fan dead or loud, lights out, controls not responding.
- Gas igniters, induction zones, cracked glass tops.
Washer and Dryer Repair in West LA
Washer won't drain? Dryer runs and runs but the clothes stay damp? We repair top-load and front-load washers, gas and electric dryers, stacked pairs and combo units in West LA. Many older apartment buildings here only have a shared laundry room run by the owner or a laundry company, so in-unit machines are usually stacked in a closet or a kitchen corner. Houses keep the laundry in the garage or a service porch. A closet dryer on a short, crushed vent overheats fast, so we check the vent on every dryer call.
- Not heating, squeaking, won't start, shuts off mid-cycle. Gas & electric.
- Won't spin or drain, leaks, error codes, shaking.
How Pricing Works in West LA
Diagnostic visit: $65. Say yes to the repair and the $65 is taken off.
We confirm what failed before we quote, and the quote is one number for the part and the labor. Work begins only with your go-ahead, and what you pay at the end is what we quoted.
Repair prices vary with the part and the model. A stacked washer's drain pump and a refrigerator's sealed system are very different repairs, so each one is quoted on site after the diagnostic. If replacing the appliance makes more sense, we'll tell you before you spend anything more.

What We Run Into in West LA
1950s and 60s apartment buildings. Tuck-under parking, small galley kitchens and appliances squeezed into tight openings. A refrigerator with no airflow around it runs warm and wears out its fans.
Street parking. Parking in Palms and Sawtelle can be tight, and some blocks are permit-only. Tell us about guest spots or a driveway when you book.
Newer Expo line buildings. Front-desk check-in, loading areas and compact appliance packages.
Remodeled houses. Built-in refrigerators and pro ranges in Cheviot Hills and Rancho Park, and mid-century houses in Mar Vista with updated kitchens.
Hard water. Scale builds up in dishwasher pumps, washer inlet valves and ice maker lines.

FAQ: Appliance Repair in West Los Angeles
Can you come out the same day in West LA?
Often, yes. Most West LA calls placed before noon are seen within 24 hours, and many the same day. If your refrigerator has stopped cooling, call rather than book online so we can put it near the front.
Which areas count as West LA for you?
This page covers Sawtelle, West Los Angeles proper, Palms, Mar Vista, Rancho Park and Cheviot Hills (ZIP codes 90025, 90064, 90034 and 90066). Westwood, Century City, Culver City and Santa Monica have their own pages, linked below, but it's the same team and the same pricing everywhere on the Westside.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. California registration A 50129 (you can check it on the DCA license search), fully insured, and BBB accredited.
What brands do you repair?
All the major ones: Whirlpool, GE, Samsung, LG, Frigidaire, Maytag, KitchenAid, Bosch, Electrolux, Kenmore. Plus built-ins: Sub-Zero, Wolf, Viking, Thermador, Miele, JennAir, Fisher & Paykel and Liebherr.
What's the warranty?
183 days on parts and 183 days on labor for every completed repair. If the same problem comes back in that window, we return at no charge. Details are on our warranty page.
How much does an appliance repair visit cost in West LA?
The diagnostic visit is $65, and it comes off the bill if we do the repair. After the diagnosis you get an exact quote for the part and the labor, and nothing starts until you approve it.
Should I repair or replace my appliance?
A common rule: if the repair costs more than half the price of a comparable new appliance, or the machine is near the end of its normal life, replacing it usually makes more sense. Built-ins are the exception. A well-kept Sub-Zero or Wolf lasts a long time, and fixing it is almost always cheaper than replacing it and redoing the cabinetry. We'll tell you honestly which side of the line you're on.
I rent. Who should book the repair?
Either of you can. If the appliance belongs to the owner, tell us who approves the quote and who pays, and we'll send the quote to that person before starting. Someone needs to be there to let us in.
What forms of payment do you accept?
Visa, Mastercard, AmEx, debit, cash, Zelle, Venmo, Apple Pay, and checks.
How do I book a repair?
Use the form at the top of this page any time, or call (213) 761-5757 between 8 AM and 8 PM, seven days a week. Tell us the appliance, the brand and what it's doing, and we'll give you an arrival window.
