I had a bad day earlier this week. I had just completed a CostCo run to stock up on groceries, only to come home to find my GE refrigerator dead. Alex was a lucky find. He came out quickly and diagnosed a key problem with the refrigerator; a blown main control board. Because my refrigerator is quite old, Alex didn't have the part on hand. Instead, he placed an expedited special order for it on the spot. He clearly explained that there also could be secondary problems, masked by the blown control board. We agreed though that it made sense and would save me money by replacing the control board first and then evaluating next steps. Luckily that was all that was needed to get my refrigerator back and up and running. Hurray! With the back of the refrigerator open, Alex took care to clean the condenser coils and other interior spaces to help keep it operating efficiently. My refrigerator now runs more quietly than I ever remember! While here, Alex also checked my Whirlpool clothes washing machine and cleaned out the accumulated gunk in the drain line that prevented it from draining properly and operating efficiently. Both my refrigerator and washer are old machines and now working like new. For both, Alex offered helpful, expert maintenance tips and advice, should I ever need to replace them. Overall, I found Alex to be punctual, fair in his pricing, clear in explaining the process and possible costs, polite, neat and personable. I highly recommend him. read more

They came for inspecting my dishwasher, the technician didn't even touch the dishwasher and claimed he understand what the problem is. He took the inspection amount. Nd said he needs to check for parts and the job will cost 450$ . I told him to givd me a call after he checks for parts, but he didn't. Upon further following up, he blamed me that i didn't confirm. He then said parts sill take 2-4 days. Total waste of 4-5 days. Meanwhile i contacted another technician who fixed the dishwasher in 200$, within 2 hrs. Simple clog was the issue. Please beware, don't avail their service. They only need the indpection money and won't show up read more

Excellent service! Alex was responsive, attentive and energetic in our multi-appointment process to fix my broken stove element. He also gave a lot of useful tips on appliances in general! Highly recommend! read more

I had a great experience with Alex from County Appliance Repair. My JennAir refrigerator was having issues, and I was dreading the high cost of calling an "authorized" JennAir repair shop. Alex arrived at my kitchen only a few hours after I called him. I really appreciated that he offered to take off his shoes before entering my home. It showed a level of respect for my house that you don't always see. He was able to quickly diagnose the problem and get the fridge working properly, which saved me a significant amount of money compared to the brand-name service centers. Alex is responsive, professional, and very reasonable. I would highly recommend him! read more

Alex did a great job on our old Maytag washer. Called him at 9 am on Sunday. He was there at noon. Next day, he drove to San Jose for the part and had it repaired by 2 pm on Monday. This is a repeat visit where he did a great job, so had to have him back. Highest recommendation! read more

Our 2 year old oven quit on us and we called Alex to come over and inspect the issue. Alex showed up 2 hours after our call and quickly determined that it was due to a bad igniter (I bake a LOT of bread at 500 degrees) and that shortened the life of the part. Alex had the part available and set right to work in fixing our oven. Alex is an honest guy with a direct communication style. His prices are reasonable (especially for the Bay Area) and we will not hesitate to utilize his services in the future. I will eventually replace our current oven with a "commercial" grade appliance (Wolf), but for now, I have a functioning oven thanks to Alex. read more

My mother had a fridge that was leaking water from the bottom freezer. I called Alex and he came out and diagnosed the problem as a clogged drain tube. He took apart the freezer and fixed the clog as well as the freezer drawer that was wonky. His price was as he stated no extra parts were needed and the problem was solved. As he was leaving he noticed the dishwasher was misaligned and he spent another 20 minutes re adjusting it (No Extra Charge). He provides a great value for his service and doesn't try and up sell you on stuff he can fix himself. I highly recommend Alex for appliance repairs. read more

My fridge's evaporation fan started humming very loudly for a few days so I I called Alex. He's responsive and despite a rescheduling he came to check it out. When he knocked I said he right there and opened my front door for himself and walked in without permission. During the investigation, he was pretty rough when attempting to removing the evaporate cover assembly. There was ice so it was hard but he gouged a hole in the insulation foam behind the cover and was using a plastic panel to support his elbow when removing the assembly which got bent a bit due to this. Having failed to remove the panel, he said without knowing the exact problem that the cover assembly must be replaced and the part will be 350 and total with labor would be 550. I looked up the part myself online and it is selling for 220 on the official parts website. I later fixed the fridge myself by simply letting the fridge defrost and was able to remove the cover assembly and then remove the ice behind the cover. I cleared out all the ice and put everything back together and it's working great now. Will not trust Alex to diagnose any problem because he wants to replace everything and make labor money. I am out 85 dollars with more damage to my fridge than I started with. read more
