They did a great job on my washing machine. They were able to diagnose it and it turned out that they needed a special part so they had a specialist in my brand of machine come out right away and they only charged me for one visit and the repair which I thought was great and very nice on their part.

I AM SORRY YOU DID NOT HAVE A GOOD EXPERIENCE. UNFORTUNATELY WITH REPAIRS IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO ENSURE TIME FRAMES. WE DO OUR BEST, BUT IF A REPAIR TAKES LONGER THEN EXPECTED WE HAVE TO FINISH BEFORE MOVING ON TO THE NEXT CUSTOMER. I DO SEE YOU REQUESTED BEFORE 2PM. OUR TECHNICIAN GAVE YOU A 1 PM TIME SLOT. THE ONLY TIME WE CAN GUARANTEE A TIME IS OUR FIRST CALL. THIS IS AVAILABLE FOR AN ADDITIONAL FEE. I APOLOGIZE IF THIS OPTION WAS NOT OFFERED TO YOU. I HOPE WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO PROVIDE SERVICE FOR YOU IN THE FUTURE. AGAIN I APOLOGIZE FOR ANY INCONVENIENCE. LYNDA

They cleaned my dryer and got it working properly. The washing machine was ready to be thrown out. The service man did not charge me anything for the washing machine. I ended up buying a new machine that day. I had an excellent experience with this company, from taking my call to servicing the call. I would highly recommend them.

Mike called in the morning to let me know when to expect him and called again when he was a few minutes away. He worked quickly and efficiently and he was thorough and knowledgeable.
Description of Work: Our gas clothes dryer was not heating. I called for an appt. on Friday and they were able to come the following Monday. Mike checked the venting and cleaned out the blockages, making recommendations to replace the hoses. Valves were malfunctioning, so he replaced them.

I found North Town on Angie's List. I looked up appliance repair companies because my freezer was not working properly. My experience with them was outstanding. The receptionist and the dispatcher were very courteous and professional over the phone. The technician who came out the next day was very professional, understood the problem immediately and gave me an estimate. He didn't perform the work because the repair cost was very high and I decided I may as well replace it. He gave me a great suggestion for a "quick fix" that would get the freezer to run for a week or two. He also gave me coupons for future services. I should also add that North Town applies a 20% discount for Angie's List members. I would highly recommend this company to everyone.

THIS PLACE IS A RIP OFF!!!! The work was done quickly, but the charge for services was preposterous. The service request told him what needed to be done. He looked at the oven and agreed with what I told him. He said he needed to go out to the truck to see if he had the part, and said he would come back and let me know the charge. When he said $355.00, my jaw dropped. I guess I just figured it would be around $200 for parts and service. That seemed reasonable. During the 12 minutes it took him to replace the part, I went on line and found AppliancePartsPros.com, which sells the part retail for $61.48. When I asked the North Town guy for a breakdown of the charge, he said it was a flat fee for everything and refused to give a break down. He was at my house for less than 1/2 hour. Thus, it was either a $580.00 per hour service call or a 400% markup on the part.
Description of Work: Replaced a $60.00 heating element on my Dacor oven.

I called about a warranty repair on my Viking refrigerator. The first guy they sent damaged the wood panels and ended up making the problem worse. He left knowing that the problem wasn't resolved and he had no solution and no intention to follow-up. I called and asked that they send out another repairman and I only received more of the same. I've taken this matter to the manufacturer. This company is worthless and a big waste of time.

The installer was very good. He installed a newer circuit board than the one we had, but it did not have the exact same functions as the old one. We contacted the manufacturer who suggested that the board specified for the dishwasher be used. The installer returned and put in the older version at no charge.

This has been a great experience. Called on Monday with problem, but due to my schedule we needed to push repairs until Wednesday. I was offered a morning appointment and was given a time frame 8-9am, and they would call around 7:30 to give a more approximate time frame. They called today at 7:23 and said they would be here around 8:00am; 7:56 pulled in driveway and began the service call. Dave was very polite, asked about the error messages and got right down to work. Explained repairs and possible situations. Cleaned up after himself. Very efficient and polite. Dave tested computer board, saw some potential problems with wiring and harness, informed me hinges need replacing; heat escaping can and will cause damage to mother board. Replaced the hinges and tested oven, everything seems to be in working order today, if problem arises in near future, I should call Dave and he will order replacement parts and setup installation.
Description of Work: Thermador Oven not heating properly, receiving a F33 code. Replaced hinges on door with the 'new and improved' type of hinges, this same oven had hinges replaced about 1 1/2 years ago with the older type. Turns out Thermador had developed a new replacement part about 4 years ago, which of coarse leads to questions as to why other service company did not use this improved product. Replacing the hinges does seem to fix the electric code error for the time being, but I have been forewarned that the board and harness may need to be replaced in future.

I needed an estimate to replace the inside of my Dacor oven which was peeling very badly. North Town said for 109.00 dollars they will come an give an estimate. They arrived ON TIME, looked at the oven and informed my wife that the paint was fine - it was spilled cooked on food that was peeling. (My wife had let someone use the oven - my wife, evidently never causes spills!). The service guy REFUSED to charge anything and left my grateful wife a little embarrassed. Well, these people are amazing - honesty is one thing, but empathy and kindness is never expected. Everyone in Chicagoland should know terrific people these are- a real find. Bravo North Town!

I experienced a problem with my Viking gas range. My oven was not heating. I contacted North Town and was scheduled the next day! My technician Al called in the morning with time he would be at my home. He arrived promptly and repaired my oven on the spot! I was impressed at his knowledge of Viking appliances and professionalism. I would definitely use North Town in the future. I love the Angie's List discounts too.

We called North Town because we were hearing a dripping noise in one of our furnaces. If you book the first appointment of the day, they will come between 8 and 9 in the morning, rather than give you a wide timeframe window. Rick was on time (even a bit early) and did a diagnostic check. When he couldn't hear the noise (of course) he did a full check of both furnaces to tell us they were in good shape. He recommended we try to diary the next time we hear the dripping noise (whether the furnace was running for a while, etc.) Rick followed up the next morning to check and see if everything was ok. He was very friendly, prompt and with the 20% Angie's List discount it was very reasonable to do a diagnostic check. I highly recommend North Town!

Great. Our oven was taking close to an hour to preheat. We called North Town and within a day they were able to send out two repairmen. Both were very nice and professional. They gave us the free estimate, we proceeded with the work to replace the oven igniter. They were done with both the estimate and repair in under an hour.
