It took Gary awhile to get back to me. He was recommended by our regular repair person so i waited. Our freezer door would not close and Gary spotted something that kept it open right away. It was the trim from the shelf that was loose and my husband probably ripped it off and threw back in there. So... We were stupid but it's fixed read more

First of all: when your dryer starts sounding like a coffee grinder and vibrating so hard it feels like it's about to enter the WWE arena yelling "READY TO RUMBLE!"... that's your sign to stop negotiating with it and call a professional. After way too many searches and review rabbit holes, we finally picked up the phone and called Gary for help ASAP. He came out the very next day (during the New Year break, no less), which already put him in "appliance hero" territory. Gary took one quick look and immediately found the culprit: a sneaky sock that somehow bypassed the lint filter, slipped between the drum, and slowly started jamming the whole mechanism like it owned the place. He even mentioned we got lucky: our unit is a more complex top-down dual-dryer setup that's not exactly fun to disassemble. Fortunately, it turned out to be a simple fix. He dislodged the sock, everything went back to normal, and just like that... peace was restored to our laundry kingdom. Yes, I paid for his travel and service (as you should when someone saves your household from Mount Laundry), but I genuinely appreciated Gary's honesty, quick diagnosis, and straightforward solution. No upsell, no scare tactics, just "here's the problem, here's the fix." Bottom line: Gary is the hero you call when your dryer is acting dramatic, and your laundry is piling up like a bad life decision. Highly recommend. read more

Punctual, communicative, no nonsense, knowledgeable didn't try to upsell. Very professional and polite. Explained what it was and knew the dog sent good no. Those people they don't care. IF there a simple read more

I had an oven that wasn't heating properly and first of all, Gary was willing to make the appt a day early and he was able to diagnose and fix in the same day...I'm winning. I bake cakes and needed to have my oven working. He told me the problem, ordered/picked up the part and came back early evening to fix....grateful! Thank you so much! $50 to come out and it is applied to cost of work....what a great value! read more

Good services, professional and quick response. Reasonable pricing, highly recommended.

My brand new washer had hot water when I choose cold water cycle. But it could change the temperature at the end of the cycle. I did some research and thought that the hose was switched---not sure how did it happen? I called several people and some of them said the same thing. Price to come to diagnose are within the range of $85, $95, $105. It could be the problems with the sensor or could be anything else that cost more. Gary priced was not the cheapest. He charged $125 to come out-but he said he fixed this issues millions times and if the problem was not from the hose that got switched-he would still be able to fix it and charge for $125. No additional. He said he could come in 2 hours. When we spoke over the phone-he sound very professional and can get the job done. So he came on time and tested the washer and got it fixed in 10 minutes. It was the hose that got switched. But HOW??? Because older home has the hot water valve on the left side-which is the opposite. Gary also showed me how to find out that the hose got switched? By holding unto the hose itself while the water is running and the machine is in use. Also to put laundry in the machine and open it to make sure that the laundry soaked with hot water. Gary is very professional, patience and worked fast. He got the work done. He also communicated very well to explain how the washing machine is functioning. read more

My dryer went on the fritz. I called Gary after checking you tube. Gary came to my house and pointed out the problem, Which I would have never thought to check. I went to appliance parts on E14th and got a new power distribution block hooked up a new power cord and was back in business. Gary only charged $50 to point out the problem. I was happy it wasn't something more in depth. Thank you Gary for taking the time to look at my machine. read more

Gary is literally the BEST!!!! My refrigerator broke out of nowhere. I reached out to Gary upon finding him on Yelp. He responded quickly and offered to show up next day for consult and see whether it is worth a fix. He arrived on time, figured out that the sensor ran its course and broke, and replaced it with a new one all within ~2 hours. My refrigerator is now working as if it was brand new! The charge of the repair was fairly priced considering his hard labor and the cost of the new sensor installed. Highly recommend Gary!! He is our guy for all appliances repair going forward!! read more

I called Gary after seeing his Yelp reviews and he answered right away. I have a Whirlpool washer (only 7 years old) that the Start button was non responsive. He worked his magic and got it working right away. Very reasonable service fee. Would very much recommend him. read more

Highly recommend Gary! He was figured out quickly what was wrong with our fridge/freezer to cause it to not stay cool and was able to get it running properly again. Gary is punctual and offers a fair price for the repair. He will be our go-to appliance repairman going forward! read more

Gary is quick, courteous and reasonably priced. My 9-year old Whirlpool dryer turns on but doesn't rotate. I contacted Gary because of his high Yelp ratings, he's an independent business owner and he's local. My call went directly to voicemail and told him that my dryer doesn't work. He called back and said to text my address. He gave me an 11-1pm window the same day (Saturday). He texted when he was 10 minutes out, within the window. He brought his own shoe covers. His 1st guess was the circuit board, quoted at $150, and switched off the necessary fuse to evaluate. After he ruled out the circuit board he started opening up the dryer. He asked for a vacuum cleaner and trash bag and cleaned out the lint and dog hair the lint catcher doesn't get. He was then able to find the cause. Gary explained that it was broken rollers and belt (showed me the broken parts). He was able to replace the bad parts within 1.5 hours for $220. read more

Gary is great. He came on a Friday night at 8pm to fix our dishwasher. Had it up and running within 30 minutes. Highly recommend.

Erik was an experienced salesman and helped us understand our choices. His clear communication style and professionalism was refreshing.

Gary was terrific--highly recommend! He answers his phone, came when he said he would made the repair all at a reasonable price

Looks like most reviews are related to washer/dryers that Gary is expertise on. If you have a gas stove that need repair, Gary is not your guy. First of all, he kept changing the appointment time. He didn't show up the first day, wasted my time waiting for him. The second day he came out and charged $80 for using a needle to poke around and said the flame level is normal. When clearly the 2 back burners at the back flames were way too high. Basically, he did nothing, pretended he did something and lied everything is normal. Gave me some BS that the gas from PGE is not clean. I called PGE the same day, they came out within 30 minutes. The first thing they said is the flames are way too high that is not normal. The gas stove is malfunctioning and needs to replace some parts. read more

High integrity and highly recommend!! Called Gary for help with a 16 month old fridge. He advised me to start with Whirlpool directly. When they wouldn't help with warranty and wanted to charge me $500 to fix fridge, I called Gary back. He walked me through easy steps to fix the fridge and it worked!! He had two opportunities to book an appointment and charge me to come out. Instead he had the integrity to try to help me get it fixed for free instead. Will definitely call Gary next time I need help with an appliance!! read more

He comes ecommended by me. Had him repair my dryer. He was very quick and did a great job.

One of my burners on my glass stovetop stopped working properly. I spoke with Gary and he came out the same day to diagnose the problem. He ordered the part and fixed it two days later. Gary is such a nice, honest and great person. He is also super responsive via phone and text. I highly recommend using him for your appliance repairs. read more

I had used Gary's services one time in the past, and I was very impressed with his integrity and skill. I gave him a positive review at that time, as well deserved. I recently used him again, this time to fix a broken dryer. He gave a rapid availability and showed up on time. What particularly impressed me was how he performed a diagnostic and told me precisely what was wrong before he even disassembled the dryer. There was an issue with one of the rollers, which he identified within moments of his initial assessment. This really highlights to me the depth of his experience and the extent of his skill set. He performed the repair with meticulous attention to detail, and my dryer is now working beautifully. He also charged very fair prices for labor and parts. This was an excellent experience and I am going to be holding onto his card for any future needs. Great job, Gary! read more

Prompt appointment and arrival time. Quickly determined the problem with my Bosch dishwasher and he fixed it same day. Gary is professional, polite, thorough, and his rate is fair. (Prior repair service I had used completely misdiagnosed the issue and so the problem kept coming back). I trust Gary and will use him again. So happy to have found a reliable appliance repair person. read more

Gary was professional and diagnosed our washer issue within minutes of arriving. He ordered the needed part and returned a few days later for installation. Highly recommend! read more

Called Gary this morning to see if he thought a 20 year old washer that I have is worth fixing. Gary was very nice and gave me his thoughts and estimate cost to repair and recommended I get a new washer as the cost to fix wasn't worth it at this point. Really appreciate his honesty and will definitely call him for other future home appliance repairs. read more

Answers own phone. No nonsense. Much more affordable diagnostic rate and faster appt time

Gary's a pro. Fixed my 20-year-old dryer. He knew what had to be done right away and fixed it in less than an hour. He arrived when he said he would. I will call on him again, absolutely. read more

Sheesh today is a fix-it day....my Whirlpool washer decided to suddenly not work....water filled, washed, with the dial clicking on spin.....and then it shuts off....wth? Great, now I have a washer full of clothes that won't drain....well, I would've called Sears (but they're no more!) and even went on YouTube with thoughts of trying to fix it myself...hmm...sounds like the water pump according to these videos! After some pondering I decided to leave it to the expert as it's all about opportunity cost.... so did a search on Yelp and came across Gary's In Home Appliance....great reviews and a majority of legit ones. When I called the number, it rang, went to voicemail and stated it was full.... That's annoying and was about to continue my Yelp search but Gary called me right back to discuss the issue, day/time and asked me to text him with the address. I appreciate his accommodating my schedule and providing available dates. Gary is old-school customer service, excellent at communicating and texted me when he was on his way. Following safety protocols and very mindful of putting on booties when he entered the house. He knew right away it was a broken switch and quickly replaced it...good thing I didn't dismantle everything myself lol! Reasonably priced, professional and will definitely use him again. Thanks Gary! I'm off to do laundry now... read more

See all

Clothes Dryer heating function went out & needed to be repaired. My "self diagnosis" after having Dryers for over 55 years probably meant a replacement of the heating thermostat and / or related part(s). Our previous repairman retired so I needed to do a search. Without question, the very positive feedback on YELP! made Gary's work history stand out. We were nor disappointed. Quick & easy setting of appointment after sharing Model Number of Dryer & we set a time window for the following day & Gary provided an estimated price based on my self-diagnosis. Gary arrived promptly at the appointed time & began his assessment by carefully inspecting & then completely removing the circulating drum to further assess the problem. Within 20 minutes or so Gary successfully diagnosed the root cause of the problem and had the Dryer running properly again in short order! While my "diagnosis" was not accurate, Gary's bill for services was $40 less than he had quoted originally. Outstanding performance & highly recommended. read more

Gary came to help us get dryer working He communicated clearly and often He is a miracle worker as my dryer was fixed within an hour! Look no further read more

Knowledgeable and Professional is how I would describe Gary! Our washer/dryer combo had issues that I could not figure out myself yesterday. The trouble was that the dryer was still functioning fine while the washer would not run. After reading some nice reviews on Yelp! about Gary's services, I decided to contact him since he is local to our Union City condo. So Gary came this afternoon, well prepared with the tools and some common parts that he carried with him. He did a quick check-up and immediately knew what the problem was. Luckily he brought the replacement part with him and was able to fix the issue right away. It's obvious that Gary knows what he is doing and his years of experience is so valuable! Way to go Gary! read more

Thank you, Gary for taking the time to talk to me regarding my posting. You were so kind to take into consideration my feelings regarding the bill. I highly recommend you to everyone who needs appliance repair. You went way above the call of duty with your service! I will definitely use you again if anything needs to repair. Again, I appreciate your time and consideration! read more

This gentleman is so honest- sent him model number of my Whirlpool washing machine and he advised NOT to fix it because it was old model. He recommended I buy new machine. I recommend him unequivocally- so rare to find such integrity!! Call him! read more

Very nice man. He didn't want to charge me but instead told me how to go about getting it fixed.

We found Gary on YELP and he was able to come out two days after he ordered the necessary part. Turns out we needed a new ice-maker for our 22 year-old Jenn-Air refrigerator. He told us his reasonable price at that time. Gary texted me this morning to give us a two-hour timeframe. And then texted again when he was 40 minutes out. He was here for less than 20 minutes, wearing shoe booties and a smile. He replaced the icemaker, answered our questions and took the old part to recycle. Could not be happier with his level of service! read more
