Appliance Repair in Cypress Park

Cypress Park is small. It sits right where the Arroyo Seco dumps into the LA River, with Glassell Park on one side, Highland Park up the hill and Lincoln Heights across the river. The houses are mostly little ones from back in the 1910s to the '30s, plus some duplexes and a few new places by the Metro stop on Avenue 26. In a lot of them you've got grandma, the parents and the kids all under one roof, and the fridge and the washer feel every bit of that. We fix pretty much everything in the kitchen and the laundry room here, and calling early usually gets you a same-day visit.

With a big household the washer runs just about every day, so it wears out faster, no way around it. Top-loaders lose their lid switch, belt or coupler, front-loaders go through drain pumps, and either kind can start leaking from a hose that's been rattling against the wall for years. Dryers here are mostly gas and mostly in the garage or out on a porch. Running every day, lint piles up fast, so we check the vent, the flap outside and the inside of the cabinet too.

Diagnostic visit: $65. If you go ahead with the repair, the $65 is part of the bill, not on top of it.
Our tech tests it, finds what failed and gives you one price for parts and labor, then you decide.

If it isn't worth fixing, say an old garage fridge with a dead compressor, we'll tell you so and you're only out the $65.

Appliance Insight was founded by Stan, an appliance technician with 5 years of experience on built-in refrigerators and high-end kitchen brands like Sub-Zero, Viking, Wolf, Thermador and Miele. Every technician on our team is trained by Stan and works to the same standard.

Big households. When three generations share one house, the washer goes every day and the fridge door's opening and closing nonstop.
Second fridges and freezers. Older units in the garage or out on the porch, working overtime all summer.
Small old houses. 1910s to '30s bungalows with tight kitchens and laundry wherever it happened to fit.
Hot summers. It gets a lot hotter here than by the coast, and that's exactly when fridges and garage freezers give up.
Street parking. Narrow streets around Figueroa and Cypress Ave. A spot out front or in the driveway helps.

Garage fridge quits in the heat: Hot garage, dusty coils, older compressor. We clean the coils and test the fan, the start relay and the thermostat. If the compressor itself is gone, we'll tell you it isn't worth fixing. See refrigerator repair.
Top-loader won't spin or agitate: Lid switch first, then the belt or the coupler, depending on the model. Big loads every single day break couplers, that's just how it goes. See washer repair.
Gas oven slow to heat: Weak igniter, almost always. As the glow bar gets old it takes longer and longer to open the gas valve, and eventually the oven just won't light. If yours is electric, pull the rack out and look at the bake element, you can often spot the burned-through part. See oven repair.
Burner won't light: Wipe off the igniter, clean the burner ports, let it dry out. Still clicking with no flame on a dry burner? Then it's the spark module or a switch. See range repair.
Dryer runs but no heat: With gas dryers we usually find a bad igniter or gas valve coils. Sometimes the thermal fuse popped, and it popped because the vent's clogged, so we clean that out too. Otherwise you'd just be buying another fuse next month. See dryer repair.
Microwave runs but won't heat: The plate goes around, the light's on, and your food comes out cold. That's normally the diode, the capacitor or the magnetron. Please don't open it up yourself, those parts can hold a nasty charge even unplugged. See microwave repair.
