Ahrens & Condill IncThe repair man arrived on time and fixed the problem quickly. However I was charged a service fee as well as a $60 repair fee for 5 minutes of work, when all he did was tighten some screws. I called the company and they would not budge on pricing. I would not recommend using the Company as...

Rainbow international of Elmwood parkAs usual, the guys as Auto Lab were very helpful. We needed an expensive and time consuming repair to the air conditioning system and it was done on time and at the quoted cost. They are a great place to do business with.
Auto Lab of LibertyvilleWhen I first contacted Emilia's about 3 months ago, Emilia came promptly for the estimate. She assigned one of her employees, Monica, who does an excellent job.

"Unprofessional. Mardell (at N-Route) moved the washer/dryer out of place in a haphazard way and broke the vintage tile without informing us that he was moving it. He refused to take responsibility for the damage, nor the repair fee he would already charged. The tile is 100 years old and very difficult to replace."

"Please read before you book your appointment with Paul. I never wrote a review in my life before but I feel like I am doing a service to all of you that are about to book an appointment and waste 80$ so Paul can enter your home. I booked an appointment with Paul, he charges 80$ for it, regardless if he finds something if not, later he charges you 150$ for doing literally anything quoting him “I don’t care if its microwave handle replacement or something serious I charge 150$” which is fair. I asked him to come out to fix my stove because the spark igniter did not work and I had to manually ignite the gas, he came out and told me that he needs to order a ignite module which is 52$, fine next week he comes with the part, he opens the back door and starts yelling that there is nest of roaches there and he won’t touch it, and he left me with a part. There was not a single roach there, it was a grease he did not even bother opening the backdoor all the way. I later called a person who is more knowledgable on the subject than Paul and he told me that what was wrong is a different this (wire harness), so I was stuck with a part that I did not need. I later called Paul to return the part and when he came he told me that he won’t take it because the part is used. I told him that I didn’t use it because the ignite module I have works fine and he identified wrong issue because of his lack of knowledge. He told me he won’t take the part with me, so I asked him to give me a receipt to the store he bought it from so I return it myself, he said no and left. So now I am stuck with a part that is brand new and worth 52$, spent 80$ for Paul to come into my house and identify issue all wrong and order me a part for it which I don’t need. Good luck running your business. Please to every one there are great workers out there, that don’t charge anything to come out, and are honest and fair with their customers. Do yourself a favor and book an appointment with someone else."

Common repairs for central vacuum cleaners include motor repair, electrical repair, and blocked filters. Central vacuum motor issues typically come with a burning smell and loss of suction. With these issues, you might need simple lubrication to keep it running smoothly, or for more extreme problems, you could need a motor replacement.
Electrical problems or losing suction strength, might be reasons to swap out electrical components for new ones. However, a local central vacuum repair professional can tell you the best plan of action for your system.
The average cost for central vacuum cleaner repair is $310, though prices can range from $120 to $500. Your total cost will depend on the type of repair needed and the type of central vacuum you own.
A minor motor repair, like lubrication, only costs around $50. However, if you need to replace your motor, you’ll be looking at a much higher price tag with a total of $100 to $500. Other fixes, like electrical work, are charged by the hour, which ranges from $15 to $55 per hour.
The answer to repairing vs. replacing appliances depends on the type of appliance, the severity of the issue or damage, and the quality of it. If you’ve purchased a top-of-the-line small appliance, it’s almost always more cost-effective to repair it than to replace it. You should also consider the cost to repair it, though. If the repair cost is more than half the cost of a new version, lean toward purchasing a new one. Your small appliance technician could also help you decide by determining the expected remaining lifespan after the repair.
Small appliance repair costs average around $50 to $400, with costs ranging significantly based on the type of appliance, the extent of the damage, the issue, the appliance brand, and the availability of replacement parts. Generally speaking, you’ll pay less for repairs on very small appliances, like blenders and toasters, than you will for microwave repairs. We recommend consulting a small appliance repair technician for a quote before starting the project.
Small appliances typically include microwaves, toasters, toaster ovens, food processors, blenders, mixers, slow cookers, air fryers, coffee makers, rice cookers, and any other appliance that can sit on your countertop. Major appliances include refrigerators, dishwashers, ovens, cooktops, washers, and dryers. Some people may include HVAC equipment like condensers and air handlers in this category, too. Small appliances are more of a specialty, so there’s a good chance a typical appliance repair company won’t be able to service and repair small appliances.
