Rich showed up on time on both occasions and did the job quickly and efficiently. I got the parts cheaper on eBay than he could get them himself but he had no problem using my parts to perform the repairs.

Rich was great! He was professional, punctual and took his time to find the problem. His rates are fantastic and I highly recommend him.

I explained the issue I was having with my oven. He told me it wasn't difficult to fix but could not describe it over the phone. When I tried to schedule a time for him to come out he said I wouldn't because I don't live in town. I live 15 minutes from town. I guess work is going well when you can be that picky.

I don't know if I'd recommend him because no work was done

I attempted to call the provider 2 times that day, but never got an answer. Ended up using Skip Holderman in Bellefonte and he was wonderful.

Rich looked at my 1995 gas range- oven and broiler not working. He could not repair it due to age and unavailability of parts. He did not charge me.

Responded very promptly. Cost was very reasonable. Most of the cost entailed was for the parts. The labor
rate was actually very reasonable.

Rich came a few hours after he was called, went right after the problem and fixed it. He worked for about two hours, cleaned up thoroughly and charged an incredibly low amount of $109.00. I give him the highest possible recommendation.

Called multiple times. When he finally responded said he was booked up until Monday. I said great. No call Monday. I called him multiple more times and he never responded. Ended up calling skip holder man who scheduled an appointment and was nice enough to call when he was going to be only 5 minutes late. He came in and charged a fair price did a great job repairing the freezer. Would use him anytime over this guy.

Rich came out the first time to repair the broken belt on the dryer. He replaced the belt and when it broke a few days later we both agreed something else was making the belt break. He came out immediately figured out what the problem was, ordered the part, replaced it and did not charge me for the labor the second time. It works perfectly now and I would definitly call him again.

Our oven stopped working. After trying unsuccessfully to get someone else to come in, I joined Angie's List and found Rich. He answered right away, came when he said he would, got the part when he said he would, and finished the repair when he said he would. What more can you ask for? He was very professional and I am happy to have found someone for large appliance repair.

For several weeks our dryer was making a terrible banging noise whenever we turned it on and wasn't drying the clothes.
We assumed that it had reached the end of its life - at 12 years of age, but called Rich to see if it could be repaired.
He listened to our description, assured us we would not need a new dryer and came out two days later diagnosed, repaired and cleaned up in 90 minutes and charged us $85.00. Rich saved us over $1,000 by repairing the dryer which still runs perfectly.
I would recommend him to anyone.

He told us that he could fix our washer, but it would have cost us a lot of money to fix it by buying new parts. He checked out the washer because it wasn't working. He told that he could order parts for us, but it would've cost $150 for a part. He advised us to buy a new washer. We paid him for his time and consultation and ended up buying a new washer. He has repaired our washer dryer and some other things in the house before. Our experience with him has always been good. He is very reasonable in what he charges. He is straightforward as far as telling us what the job entails. He is a good guy. I would highly recommend him.

Very well. A positive experience. Rich returned our call promptly and came to diagnose the problem. A part was required and he ordered it. In a couple of days he called and was ready to come back. Other than telephone tag and a missed appointment due to another job taking longer than planned everything went very well. Rich also observed that the dryer vent was very dirty and offered to clean it. We accepted and are glad we did.

Rich was great! He got back to me promptly to assess my front-loading washing machine's chances of survival: fit me into his busy schedule quickly, and after taking apart my machine to evaluate, didn't BS me about what he could do to get my washer working again. Instead he explained the mechanics and physics of front-loaders vs. top loaders, the vulnerabilities of my machine's particular brand, and suggested resilient yet energy efficient styles and brands--even fielding a phone call or two after he'd come to my house and declared my machine not worth fixing! I can't remember what he charged me, but his house call fee was the comparable to all repair people I had called...

We have used Rich for years and are always pleased with his work. He is friendly and capable, and always tries to find you the lowest priced answer for your repair needs. He's even talked us through simple repairs over the phone--at no charge! If you need appliance repair, call Rich!!
