    Technician Changing Laundry Machine Rate (08/25/25). @WestCoastChiefAppliance #Burbank #Appliances #Repairs #ApartmentOwners
    Jeff B.

    (Serviced 08/25/25 MO @ 9:00am). Down on the west coast... they apparently were a chief repair place! I came across West Coast Chief Repair while I attended a recent Apartment Owners Association trade show. After my family acquired an investment rental property in the city of Burbank in 2017, we also inherited four laundry machines that were not serviced by any company unlike the rest of our other laundry machines. This posed a problem when maintenance was needed (our other laundry vendor wouldn't touch them because it wasn't their equipment) but especially at this time when the per-load rates were woefully low. Was the correct decision chiefly made to hire this west coast appliance repair company!? QUICK BIO West Coast Chief Repair has provided affordable, expert, reliable appliance repair to metro Los Angeles, Orange, and Ventura Counties since 1994. Fanatical customer support, ultra-fast response times, reasonable prices, and a staff of highly experienced certified technicians have made them the number one air conditioning, heating, refrigeration, and appliance repair company in Los Angeles for over a decade. They fixed, maintained, and installed all home and most commercial appliances which included the following: air conditioners, heaters, HVAC systems, kitchen appliances, washers and dryers. They also sold appliances in their Burbank showroom. Customers were welcomed to visit; however, it was more of a warehouse setting than a display center. Commercial customers such as large apartment complexes accounted for most of their sales. And, they claimed that a portion of each job went to support Ukrainian children in need. PURCHASE Washer & Dryer Rate Increase ($125.00 x4): I never researched how much it would cost to increase the per-load cost of $1.00 each. Because I didn't compare with other vendors whether or not this was a reasonable rate, I couldn't say if this was a good price. However, with the continuous escalation of utilities costs (gas and water in this case) along with general maintenance expenses, this was a must regardless of the final business bill. SERVICE Our working arrangement casually came about by first meeting them at a trade show, they explained the many services they provided, I called them the next day to schedule an appointment, I received a 24-hour reminder, and I met a non-descript male technician https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=V0YbqwBD31EIWJN7PzEQCA (no branded company vehicle or uniform). The work was completed within 30 minutes, and thankfully, he had all the necessary tools and such for a seemingly quick and easy job. Although I observed, we barely chatted which was fine with me. This was an easy straightforward service call - thank you! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw&select=71chtUBYU91o4CJqhm9Tmw PARKING (N/A) Since their business was all about coming to your location, out of courtesy you tried to have a convenient spot for them to park their vehicle. Otherwise, they were more than happy to park out on the street. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE Although they had an actual main office and a couple of locations along with their showroom, that was rather inconsequential since the real place of business was at any given property where the service was needed. ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL I was pleased with my first time hiring West Coast Chief Repair and would definitely keep them in mind not only for these specific laundry machines but for other appliance needs. Although I already work with other vendors to handle certain appliances, in property management you could never have too many vendors you felt comfortable with and trusted. Of course, the jury could still be out until I used them a few more times on other things. And, whenever possible I liked to support small family-owned businesses. I found very good value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $500.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 4.0 STARS

    They do not take property damage or a poor job seriously. Instead of apologizing, the manager said to me, "I bet it looks better than it did before." In their response here, calling what I wrote a "characterization" just shows that they don't listen to or believe their customers. They also said that offering a refund for the cleaning was "fair." I would agree if they hadn't damaged my unit, but they did. The pieces that were broken off were from the inside and outside of the unit and what clips it on. The unit cover had never been removed until the technician removed it, so it is impossible that it occurred at any other time. I also have a before and after photo (the after that they took) of the unit where the damage is not present before. I filed a complaint with the BBB about the property damage since they refuse to take accountability.

    Kim was great fixed everything immediately. Came on time and made sure repair worked before he left. Great would definitely recommend!!

    West Coast Chief Repair LIES saying they never serviced us. So here is a screen shot of our property management and West Coast   as proof.

    I had very good experiences with So Cal Air and definitely recommend them…read more Both the business and the construction parts of the job went smoothly. Communication was good. They helped me understand options and worked with me on what I wanted. They did what they said they would do. They were flexible and took the time to finesse the work where it was needed. Good quality work. Permits went fine, and everything passed the first time. My 1930 property has a 2-story duplex and a house. I live in one unit and have renters in the other units. I talked to several companies about the work. So Cal Air was more responsive than other companies. Menooa was very knowledgeable and helpful during the first meeting, offering me options. Their proposal was competitive with other proposals. They helped me understand options and were flexible, and worked with me through the installation of what I wanted. They installed 3 separate systems for me, one system for each unit. Each system had 3 zones. I've had many repairs to my property over the years, and the details matter to me. I wanted to hide the lines as much as practical, preserve the architectural look. My contractor handled the electrical installation and opened and repaired the drywall after the lines were installed. SoCal Air worked well with my contractor. Renovation of older construction is often complicated and takes extra effort. We had to come up with some creative solutions, and SoCal Air did a great job! My units were installed above doors and windows. My contractor modified the living room cove ceilings so the indoor units would fit close to the ceiling. So Cal Air did everything else. Everything fits great and looks great! I appreciated that Manooa gave good recommendations to steer me away from difficulties, but he also listened to me and headed my wishes when it mattered to me. So Cal Air handled the permits for the heat pumps. The installation passed the LA Building and Safety inspections with no issues. The work was finished late summer, early fall of 2025, after the heat, but in time for winter. Heating worked great in winter. We had a chance to use the cooling during a recent heat wave, and it worked great! I bought the heat pumps primarily for cooling, since the apartments had only heating and had never had cooling before. The units work great! The temperature stays very comfortable. Everything is very quiet. I barely know they are on, except when I open the door and am shocked by how hot it is outside. My tenants gave me positive feedback and have been very happy with the heat pumps. My property still looks like 1930, but it doesn't feel like 1930 anymore! I am very happy with their work and the results. I've recommended So Cal Air to several friends.

    I recently had So Cal Air replace my entire HVAC system, including both the outdoor unit and the…read moreindoor air handler. I could not be happier with the experience. From the initial consultation through installation, Menooa and his team were professional, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. They also enlarged one of my return air vents to meet the higher airflow needs of the new HVAC system. The work required widening the opening in the ceiling and installing a new return grille. The crew handled it neatly and professionally. When they finished, it looked like new. The new system is working great, airflow is noticeably improved, and the entire project was completed fast and as promised. It's not often that a major home improvement project goes this smoothly. I would recommend So Cal Air to anyone looking for HVAC installation or replacement.
