Alex was very professional, on time, honest and super helpful. We had an issue with ice forming in our freezer, Alex diagnosed the problem offered us a simple fix and didn't try to over charge us like a previous handyman did. Easy to talk to and highly recommend if you have any issue with your appliances. read more

I contacted Alex because my refrigerator was building ice at the bottom of the freezer tray, which would eventually spill onto the floor. Alex scheduled an appointment for two days later and showed up exactly on time as promised. He quickly diagnosed the issue and got right to work, fixing the problem efficiently. Alex even followed up a week later to make sure everything was still working perfectly. I highly recommend Alex to anyone in need of appliance repair and will definitely be referring him to family and friends. read more

Our Maytag washer stop working so I found Alex on Yelp due to his high 5 stars reviews. Now I can personally confirm that he totally deserves it!!! It was New Year Day when I called Alex and he was still working! I texted him the model number and he confirmed that he worked on this model before. He came the following day as promised. He did the diagnostic test and honestly told me it's the control panel and it would be cheaper to get a new one. He also check on my frig's burned out lightbulb as a courtesy and said he will look for the replacement . I Zelle him $40 for the visit. Afterwards he even texted me some washers that's on sales that he thinks it's a good deal. Alex is very honest and helpful! I will definitely keep him for future repairs!! read more

Just wow. Alex is really a great guy, but to talk of his work, he was quick, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. We had an old maytag washer that stopped wringing clothes and made crazy banging noises even with nothing in the drum. Alex was quick to respond to my texts and was able to service the machine within the next day. He gave two price points, refurbished or new part, and was honest about deciding on both options, he had no preference. My only regret is not calling him sooner. Pricing is more than fair and I'm happy to have his number in my back pocket in case of any other appliance issues. Honestly, he is the real deal. These reviews weren't lying of the quality of his work! read more

Great work by Alex on my 17 year old Whirlpool clothes dryer. Dryer was not drying clothes completely for a while and had to add time to get them totally dry. Alex came by checked things out. First he checked to ensure the washer was spinning out all the water completely from the wash cycle, and it was. He troubleshooted the dryer and found that the timer was bad and needed replacing. He gave me 2 options. Refurbish existing one or order a new one. I chose a new one. He ordered the part, kept me posted on delivery time frame, set up appt. date and time. Got it replaced, I ran a couple loads to test it out and Bam! got it working great with clothes coming out dry on normal time cycle. Great people skills, very knowledgeable, knows his stuff, and easy payment system. Highly recommended. read more

Alex's Appliance Repair - 2007 Whirlpool Clothes Dryer - Appliances & Repair Near Me

Punctual, easy to work with and fair pricing! Alex was direct and easy to work with even over the phone he was able to kindly assess what is wrong with our fridge based on what we shared with him. He was pretty accurate on his assessment when he arrived to diagnose at the property. His price was much more reasonable than all the other competitors who sent out among many of their technicians ( you never know who you will get). I always prefer working directly with the owner and technician himself. No funny business or aggressive markups! I would hire him again for future repair needs! read more

Alex is awesome!! I was having issues with my dryer not getting hot and drying clothes. He came and fixed it. A few days later the dial timer was off and I called him back and fixed it with no charge. Now, that's customer service. Since then I have had no issues with my dryer. I did refer him to family members and they as well have been very happy with Alex's service. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for honest work and not get the runaround and get overcharged for unnecessary work. I will be calling him for any appliance repairs. Thank you Alex. read more

Holy smoke Alex is the real deal. So my refrigerator at home had been making sound for few days and suddenly the fan in the freezer section suddenly stopped working. The same morning I called Alex's number on the Yelp page at 8 AM and he said first texting him pictures of my refrigerator and model/serial number, WIthin a hour Alex replied and said he can diagnose our model and arranged the same day appointment at 11 AM. Alex was very friendly and did some testing using his analytical tools. He was able to figure out the issue within 15 minutes and said ice is causing blockage on the fan. He instructed me to unplug refrigerator for at least 48 hours and to leave the door open for a quicker defrosting process. Housecall/diagnosis fee was $30 with the fee waived with repair. Alex did not charge any additional repair fee in my case and my refrigerator came back alive after following Alex's instructions! I also asked Alex on what brands of refrigerators to buy in future and he recommended American brands such as Maytag, Amana, Jennair, Admiral, Kenmore, and Whirlpool. I think Alex should rename from "Alex's Appliance Repair" to "MVP Alex's Appliance Repair" because he IS truly the MVP of appliance repair. 5-star all the way! read more

Alex's Appliance Repair - Defrosting the refrigerator (Jul 2023) - Appliances & Repair Near Me

I'm adding to the mountain of 5-star reviews. Alex was quick to respond, professional in every way, let me know when he could come, stuck to the schedule, notified me when he was arriving, and took care of my washer problem quickly and completely. Thankfully it was quite fixable, and he charged me a very reasonable price, making it easy to pay by Zelle. He said he also takes cash. I wish all service calls were this smooth. I added him to my short list of trusted household maintenance contacts, and I will definitely call him again if I need to. read more

My fridge suddenly stopped cooling the other day, and I sent Alex a quick text asking if he could potentially help me diagnose it. He responded quickly and professionally, and we scheduled a time to meet up; he even provided updates as to when he was leaving. Alex was able to quickly diagnose my issue, and even though it wasn't good news, he delivered it professionally and with great advice. He is clearly very knowledgeable about appliances and he gave me a in-depth explanation as to my issue. I'm very thankful for his help and his professionalism. I would highly recommend him to anyone that has any appliance issues! read more

Alex is truly one of a kind! A professional through and through. He came out to fix my Mom's refrigerator within 24 hours of my call. Within minutes he figured out the part that was needed and determined it was still available. He even tried a trick that got the refrigerator running for a few days while he waited for the new part to arrive. He came out to fixe it the same day he picked up the part. He even checked in on us the day after to make sure everything was working as expected. It is rare to find professionals with such expertise and commitment to exceptional service these days. I cannot recommend Alex enough. read more

Alex was great. Unfortunately for me, my washer was done. Alex came and looked at it and very honestly told me that my money would be better spent on a new one. His fee for the home visit was very reasonable and he is an extremely nice and friendly person. I would definitely recommend him and will be calling him if I have any appliance issues. read more

I cannot say enough good things about Alex. He deserves more than 5 stars. Alex responded quickly to my call when my refrigerator stopped cooling. He asked me to text him my refrigerator information. Alex texted back that he knew the make/model well and quickly scheduled an appointment. He text confirmed the morning of the appointment and also notified me when he was on his way. Upon inspection, Alex communicated issue and informed me the very reasonable price to repair. Fortunately, he had the part and repaired my fridge quickly and efficiently.

My Mom's refrigerator freezer went out on her all of a sudden, and I immediately searched for a repair person to call. Luckily, I found Alex on Yelp, and gave him a call. He responded promptly, and asked for the make and model of her refrigerator. I was able to get an appointment with him the following morning, and he alerted me when he was on his way. He said it was $30 for house call diagnosis, which he'd credit towards repair cost. Shortly after inspecting the freezer, he diagnosed the problem as a defective defrost module assembly. He was able to replace it during the same visit, which was such a relief! However, my Mom's Amana refrigerator was over 20 years old, and he said that it was difficult to predict how long it may last. The new replacement part worked perfectly, and he even followed up with us the next day to make sure everything was okay. But then, less than two months later, the refrigerator completely bit the dust. Kaput. We called Alex, who came to check on it promptly. He was very honest, and said that the problem had nothing to do with the defrost module assembly which he had replaced. And he recommended getting a new unit. He explained in detail about the new technology, and that the cost of repairing it would not be worth it, and better off to just purchase a new one. So my Mom immediately ordered a new one. A smaller model, which she is very happy with. We were very happy with Alex's service. He was extremely professional, very knowledgeable, punctual and with great communication skills. HIGHLY recommended! When it went out the second time, he did not charge for coming out and making the diagnosis (because he had repaired it over a month earlier). Also, he kindly researched some good deals on purchasing a new one and sent us recommendations the next day! Outstanding service--- do not hesitate to give Alex a call if your refrigerator goes out on you. read more

Now I understand why this business only has 5 star reviews! It's because we can't give him MORE than 5 stars!!! He showed up when he said he would, he was very respectful of our things, his bill was very reasonable and he was honest about the repair. My landlord was so glad we picked him to do the repair. Thanks, Alex!!! read more

I have used his service to repair my fridge and he is always on top of his job. He is very courteous and knows very well what he is doing. Two thumbs up. read more

This was price gauging at its finest. The lid lock on my washing machine was not working properly and stopped my washing machine from working. It took several days for him to get someone to come look at the machine. Then he gave me a price quote of $400 usd to replace a lid lock that costs $40 for the part, and you can change it yourself following a YouTube video. He even admitted, in writing, to padding his price quotes. read more

We've called Alex several times and he is great... why? HE'S HONEST! He charges a basic (very reasonable) house call charge, which applies towards any work needed. He could have said we needed a big repair job and we wouldn't have known the difference, but he didn't do that. He told us what to do so the issue wouldn't happen again Mike M. - Pasadena read more

Alex was kind, courteous, and quick. We used his services at the very beginning of COVID and recently recalled him for a different appliance. It's nice to see the consistency in his professionalism. He is definitely now our go-to handyman and I highly recommend him for any appliance servicing or repair that you might need. read more

I honestly cannot say enough good things about Alex. I had another repair man check out my fridge and he let me know it'd be $850 for a busted compressor, but he passed on doing the work. I called Alex for a second opinion and he informed me that the type of compressor and cooling system that my fridge has should still be under 5yr warranty. He advised me to contact the manufacturer to see if the work my fridge needs would be covered. Lo and behold, we're under warranty! I cannot thank Alex enough for being honest and forthcoming about my options. He could've easily fleeced us for the $850 we were first quoted, but he's a stand up guy and saved us the money. Thank you, Alex. I'm truly grateful. read more

I've had Alex out to my house a couple times to work on my (circa 2004) Kenmore washer and dryer. He is very honest with the work that he does and I appreciate the honest feedback and quality job that he's done both times. He could have recommended a super-expensive fix for my very old machines, but instead he laid out all of my options and gave me a good deal on the work that he did. The 1st time he came to fix my dryer, he quoted me his cost to do the repair himself and also offered me a DIY option. He sent me a link to a YouTube video showing me how to install the part in my dryer and he also told me where I could buy the part and how much it should cost. My husband and I did the fix ourselves and all these years later the work is still holding up! Alex is great at what he does and he's a really nice person - I highly recommend him for all your appliance needs! read more

I can't say enough good things about Alex. I was having issues with our fridge. I even tried to fix it myself but it was beyond my pay grade. I called and spoke with him and he was very polite and professional. I sent him my fridge model and he ordered the part. I then got sick but Alex was nice enough to keep accommodating to how I was feeling and kept rescheduling without any complaints. He finally came over and repaired my fridge in a few hours. Fridge works better than ever and saved lots of money by just repairing instead of replacing it. I highly recommend Alex. Head the real deal. An absolute professional at his job. Thank you again Alex. read more

Alex was very responsive and helpful regarding my dryer repair. He helped fix my old whirlpool dryer and was able to diagnose the problem. Super efficient and helped with a maintenance on the dryer. Alex is super nice and would recommend him to anyone in the San Gabriel area. read more

My review is late (shame on me) as my work was done on 9/11. For months my 10 year old Whirlpool fridge was not cooperating for months, it freeze ( build up ice) but the frig would become hot. Then out of nowhere it would start to work again. So prior to contacting Alhambra Appliance I went on a referral and called a technician he came at the time it was working said there was nothing to do but I paid the customary service call, he didn't even check. The frig finally took a dive prior to 11th so didn't know who to call etc. Came on Yelp and was overwhelmed with choices, but I got lucky in choosing Alhambra Appliance repair (Alex) he responded immediately and even asked for model# he gave me a service call quote which was extremely reasonable as I am not located in Alhambra. He came examined thoroughly and found the culprit gave the repair quote and again very reasonable. Had it fixed in no time, I now actually have a brand new refrigerator because of Alex. Additionally he even texted the next day to make sure all was operating well. He went beyond the scope but that proves he is a professional. 10 stars for sure but Yelp cuts us off at 5 Thank you again Alex! read more

If I could give a 6 star, I definitely would! I contacted Alex because my GE refrigerator wasn't cooling. He responded right away and was able to come diagnosis the problem. The fridge was a total pain in the ass as he had to come back several times to change different parts but at the end he was able to get it working again. He only charged me the initial repair fee which was quite reasonable and came back several times to fix it as a courtesy. Throughout this whole process, Alex is professional, honest and very committed to his work. I would definitely use him again. read more

Alex repaired a leaky valve that was leaving residual water in my washer tub. He was very professional in diagnosing the issue and timely in making the necessary repairs. Class professional would highly recommend. read more

I had a problem with my Kenmore dryer not heating up. Called a few repair companies and Alex had the most affordable diagnostic fee (compared to others who are closer to me) so obviously I went with him. Glad I did. Communication was excellent. He came on time, explained what the problem was (defective solenoids) and transparent with the cost. I told him to go ahead and repaired it. It took him about half an hour to get the job done. The replacement comes with 1 year warranty. He also inspected and tested all remaining components, cleaned and vacuumed the lint debris, all this as a courtesy. Thank you Alex for your excellent service. Highly recommend! read more

I have an almost 19 year old dryer that was making an annoying high pitched noise. I saw Alex recommended by neighbors. He came the same day I texted . He diagnosed the issue and honestly let me know it was too expensive to repair. Since the dryer is still working, he said to keep using it until I get a new one. Honest, knowledgeable guy! read more

I was in need of appliance repair on my gas dryer. I searched google and came across Alex's Yelp listing and his 5rating caught my attention. I looked further to read the reviews from his customers, and I also read his personal account message regarding his business. I decided to give him a call. I was able to get an appointment very quickly. The day of my appointment, Alex was on time and very professional and friendly. He quickly diagnosed the issue on my dryer. He mentioned two options for the repair and was quick to suggest the money saving option first, but we had to go with the more expensive option for my situation. He was very honest about his diagnosis, plus he went the extra mile and did a bit of maintenance work at the same price he had given me for the repair my appliance needed. He gave me some extra helpful advice on maintaining my appliance so that it could keep working at optimum performance for my family. I appreciate his help and caring and wanting to do what's best for the customer vs his pocket. He wasn't looking to gouge me, he was simply providing his expert services with a kind heart. Like the other Yelper said "There's a reason he has a 5 rating on his Yelp account. read more

Highly recommend booking an appointment with Alex! My old refrigerator started occasionally making loud noises that could be heard across the house. Worried that my neighbors will hear it at night, I went online and booked a consultation with Alex after reading all the outstanding reviews. He's honest and very knowledgeable- and provides amazing service. You won't be disappointed if you book! read more

The Yelp reviews are real. I called Alex on Friday, two days before Christmas because my refrigerator just stopped getting cold and I lost about $500 worth of food (ouch). He was able to fit me in the next day, yesterday, even though today is Christmas Eve. That morning he messaged me to confirm I was on the calendar. Then he messaged me when he was on the way. I really appreciate these updates because it can be a pain to sit around waiting with no clue when someone will show up. He took a look at the fridge, a Whirlpool, and told me it wasn't defrosting and showed me all the ice buildup. And yup it was almost totally blocked with ice. He suggested a free solution of just unplugging the fridge and letting it defrost on its own for a day or two. I appreciate him not trying to squeeze every dollar out of me and would have taken him up on it, except that Christmas was in a day and a half. So he went ahead and manually defrosted the freezer which included disassembling the freezer. Our kitchen is small and narrow and our freezer is on the bottom, I know it was a pain but he was professional the entire time. He even was courteous about not spilling water all over the place and asked for a towel to catch the extra water. He reset the computer and even cleaned out the vents which were full of dust bunnies. Today the fridge is nice and cold and Christmas is saved! It was worth every dollar. He even messaged me this morning to confirm everything was working well. Alex is great and I'll recommend him to everyone. read more

Alex was responsive to my call and text. He is rated 5 stars for a reason. He came to my home a couple days later and within 20 seconds, he knew my fan was out. Cold air was not circulating and my ice maker was not working as a result. He gave me a fair price and was able to replace it in under an hour. He also cleaned out the dust accumulated underneath and some advice on where not to block the air flow. I am happy with his service and would recommend him to anyone! read more

Alex was great! I had a problem with a dryer. Alex was very responsive. He was out in a couple of hours and fixed the dryer right away. His communication was great. He responded to my call within minutes, texted when he was on the way and let me know what it would cost to fix prior to the repair. The repair was reasonable and he fixed it quickly. I will definitely be using Alex in the future. read more

You know the feeling when your dryer stops drying? Oh, you don't? Well, it is not good. It really is annoying! So when that happened, I looked up dryer repair people and found Alex's appliance repair. And boy was I glad I did! The reviews are spot on with the praise. I agree with all of it! I left a message in the morning for Alex and he promptly called back within an hour. He asked about the model of the dryer and to send a photo of it. He then texted back that he knew the model well and could take a look the same day within a few hours. This was agreeable so we set up an appointment. He arrived promptly, opened up the dryer and diagnosed the problem quickly. He explained the problem in simple detail and gave a reasonable quote which was acceptable. He finished the work in less than an hour and now the dryer is up and running again. I'm very grateful for the fast response time and repair and would highly recommend Alex for dryer repairs if you need them. read more
