TALLEY'S APPLIANCE REPAIR SERVICE
About us
All of my work is done by me the owner and technician. My service call to diagnose the problem is only $99 and if you choose to have the repair done I charge an additional $79 per hour labor to do the repair. In most cases the labor will not exceed one hour with exceptions for larger more difficult and time consuming repairs in addition to any parts cost. My warranty on parts and labor is 90 days which is the same as most manufacture parts warranty. Thank for your interest in my company and I hope to see you soon. Sincerely, Patrick A. Talley (Owner/Technician).

"I do not know this person & have never had a repair bill for any customer this high. I think this is a false report."
I called and left a voice message. It took about 4 hours for a return call which I did not mind since it was not an emergency. We set up an appointment. Patrick showed up on time. My dryer was filled with lint build-up which he cleaned and he also blew out my dryer vent too which had a large amount of lint built up in it. He replaced the belt and, at my request, he also replaced some rollers that are also known to fail and make noise. In total it took him about 2 hours. The dryer still makes a slight thumping noise and he went back in to try a couple more things to see if he could make it go away. I could tell he wasn't happy that it wasn't perfect, but I was very satisfied given the age of the dryer.
I will definately call at Talley's Appliance Repair service the next time I have an appliance problem.
We called Pat on Sunday, left voice mail, got a call Monday (Veteran's Day) morning, and scheduled visit for 9:30 am Tuesday. Pat showed up at 9:22, no call for directions, etc. Pat is a native of the Raleigh area and doesn't have a problem finding places.
Look into the washer revealed that the belt was intact and new-looking. Further checking found a connector to the motor that was not pushed in far enough to snap and hold connection. This would have been true since the factory, since this is the first issue we have ever had with this high-end Whirlpool, and the first time the cover was off since installation. Pat said the connectors were without corrosion, and snapped it in all the way. Ran a load of wash to verify no problems.
We also discussed the state of new washers on the market, as ten years is a common washer lifetime. Pat is an independent repairman, not beholden to any brand or company. Particularly given that, this repairman's eyeball view is a very valuable resource, and we made our notes from the conversation. We will be planning a non-emergency replacement in the next few years, and Pat's experience is money in the bank.
Pat was very fastidious in keeping the work area clean.
He charged only the $59 visit charge, no labor as no parts were installed. His 90 day guarantee still applies, regardless of no parts installed.
Pat is a keeper.
"Thank you for your kind words"
Great service! Would recommend Talley's Appliance Repair to anyone!
It would help if there were rating scores for different tasks. Mr. Talley's performance on the drier repair went well and I would have given him top scores--but for the hose replacement issue. I hired him initially to repair the drier, then asked if he would replace the washer hose as a preventive measure, and he agreed to do this.
