I can honestly say I trust Herbert and his skills & advise since he's been in the business for over 25 years!
He's knowledgeable, honest and done right the nicest person you'll ever meet! He will tell you exactly what the problem is, the most cost effective way to fix it and if he can't fix it, he'll tell you that too. He won't try to rip you off! The other amazing thing about him is, you will call him & he will do his best to get to you that day if at all possible or have one of his associate's. Or at most, the next day. He strives for complete 100% customer satisfaction! Great company! Great service! Great guy!
We have a Maytag wide-by-side refrigerator that we bought in January 2001. This was the first and last year Maytag made that model and we were told this by a Maytag repairman years later. After the first 4 years, we started having problems with a thick layer of ice freezing on the bottom of the freezer and water running out onto the floor during the defrost cycles. We have hired and paid numerous repair companies over the years. The only thing all of these companies did was chip the ice off the bottom of the freezer compartment, pour hot water down the drain line. tell us that fixed it and charge us a minimum of $169. The refrigerator would start the same thing again within a few months and then it started happening in weeks and then in just days. We were so frustrated at the money we were spending on the same frequently recurring problem. 2 years ago, a repairman had put a new defrost heater on and that had worked well for the 2 years and then it started leaking water on the floor again 8 months ago.
We were so skeptical by now. I found Accurate Appliance on Angie's List and I saw the A reviews and I read the comments. I called and left a message and Herbert called back the same day. He said he could come out right away but my schedule was crazy. He was very patient with me having to reschedule a couple of times. Clyde called to let me know when he was on the way and he was on time and he was very polite and professional. He listened very patiently to my story of how frustrated we have been with this problem. He could not unclog the line with just hot water and a drain clear-out line, so he had to take the defrost drain line off which is in the bottom and back side of the refrigerator. He washed the line out in the sink to remove what was evidently years of build-up that had never been cleaned out by the other companies. All they had done was pour hot water down the line and say that was all it needed.
Many thanks and appreciation to Herbert and to Clyde for the time spent in waiting on me to reschedule and on clearing the defrost drain and with cleaning up the ice and water and for putting up with my numerous questions about how to care for my refrigerator. I will definitely refer them to all of my friends and anyone who says they need a good appliance repair company!
I had an experience with another company that did not go well off of Home Advisor ....opened an account on Angie's....and found Accurate Appliance....Herbert called me with 15 mins of buying the service ...we discuss the situation over the phone...he bought the
parts ahead of time but he got here and performed a diagnostic and flush out the lines....did not need a new compressor....great experience...cant say enough about Herbert...communicated during the entire process, told me what he was going to try to see if he could save me $$$ not needing the compressor....worse case the compressor would need to be replaced....after an hour he said I think we got, don't need the compressor, line was clogged...I am glad he set the expectation of worse case and then was able to improve on the situation....great job, great professionalism...I would recommend Herbert....Three strikes and you're out - we ended up calling another repairman who tested the fridge fan with the proper equipment and determined that it was not working. After he replaced it with a new fan, it worked correctly. I did let Herbert know that this happened, he was not apologetic and insisted that both fans were broken. His method of fixing things by testing them and coming back multiple times is not a way to run a business.
I do appreciate that we were not charged each time Herbert returned to our house. And i do appreciate him trying to save money by not making me pay for a new fan if it wasn't broken - though I would have preferred to be made aware that he was doing that. I'm not a repairman but I'm pretty sure there are tools you can use to test parts to see if they are working. I needed to have a working refrigerator and I think expecting it to be fixed the first time (or at least the second) is not too much to ask.
