He took all details of dishwasher, model, etc. and told me he would check for parts
I called him over and over since he never called back. When I reached him he stated that the part was no longer available. This was hard to believe since my dishwasher was fairly newly purchased.
I checked online, found the part, ordered the part and got installation guides online. When I received the part a friend and I installed the part and it is working perfectly.
I could make a fortune charging and quot;service feesand quot; then telling people and quot;the part is no longer availableand quot; but would not do this because it is dishonest.
We have used Paul in the past. Super professional , great response, and the best prices in Mobile. Had the dryer up and running in an hour and total cost only a few dollars more than competitors that charge 70.00. just to show up. Will use for all appliance repair in the future.
Paul arrived on time and looked at the ice maker and determined the unit needed to be replaced. He went to a local parts provider and procured the part, returning not long after to replace the part. He also replaced the solenoid valve on the unit, something I usually test with a multimeter before I replace.
The price seemed high to me but honestly I think most contractor's prices are high so I am not the best judge of price. I get my ice makers off Amazon for no more than $50 and the valves are around $20-40. Both for around $100 is not completely out of line. As is the case with most modern appliances, repairs are usually a high percentage of the original price of the unit. In this case, the repair was 20% of the original cost of the appliance. Makes a good argument for extended warranties.
After replacing the unit, Paul informed me that he only accepted cash, something I did not see on the website here on Angie's List. This is why I could not use him in the future. I use checks for recording and reporting purposes.
