Common appliance problems we fix in Palo Alto

Find the problem that matches yours. You will see the usual causes and when it is time to call a technician. Not sure what is wrong? Call us and we will help you sort it out.

Refrigerator not cooling

A warm fridge can spoil food fast. Here is what is often behind it.

Often caused by

  • Dirty condenser coils that cannot release heat
  • A fan that stopped moving cold air
  • A defrost problem that lets ice block the airflow

Call us if

  • It is still warm after a few hours.
  • You hear clicking, buzzing, or a hum that never stops.

Washer not draining or spinning

Water sitting in the drum is stressful, and it can leak onto your floor.

Often caused by

  • A clogged drain pump filter
  • A kinked or blocked drain hose
  • A worn drain pump

Call us if

  • Water stays in the drum after a full cycle.
  • An error code keeps coming back.

Dryer not heating or taking too long

A dryer that runs but stays cold usually has one failed part. A clogged vent can also be a fire risk.

Often caused by

  • A blown thermal fuse
  • A failed heating element on electric dryers
  • A weak igniter on gas dryers

Call us if

  • Clothes are still wet after a full cycle.
  • You smell something hot or burning.

Dishwasher not cleaning or draining

Cloudy dishes or a puddle at the bottom mean water is not moving the way it should.

Often caused by

  • A clogged filter
  • A blocked drain hose
  • A worn drain pump

Call us if

  • Standing water stays after the cycle.
  • The door or bottom leaks.

Oven or stove not heating

No heat means no dinner. The cause is often a small part.

Often caused by

  • A weak igniter on gas units
  • A burned-out bake or broil element on electric units
  • A bad temperature sensor

Call us if

  • The oven takes very long to warm up.
  • Burners click but do not light.

Ice maker not making ice

Ice trouble is one of the most common fridge complaints.

  • A frozen water line
  • A worn water inlet valve
  • An old water filter

Call us if

  • No ice after 24 hours.
  • Water leaks from the dispenser.

Microwave running but not heating

If the light and fan work but food stays cold, a heating part has likely failed.

Often caused by

  • A bad magnetron
  • A failed diode or capacitor
  • A worn door switch

Call us if

  • You see sparks or smell burning.
  • It hums but never heats.

Leak, sparks, smoke, or a burning smell

These are emergencies. Protect your home first, then call us.

Often caused by

  • Worn hoses or door seals
  • An electrical short
  • An overheated motor

Call us if

  • Any leak you cannot stop.
  • Sparks, smoke, or a burning smell.

How our appliance repair works, step by step

No mystery and no pressure. Here is what happens from your first call to a working appliance.

  1. 1

    Call or send a request

    Reach us any time, day or night. Tell us the appliance, the brand, and what it is doing. If it is an emergency, say so right away.

  2. 2

    We find the real problem

    Your technician checks the appliance, reads the error codes, and tests the parts. You hear what failed in plain words.

  3. 3

    You get a written estimate

    The estimate lists parts and labor. Any diagnostic fee is stated in writing. Nothing starts until you say yes.

  4. 4

    We repair, test, and explain

    We fix it, run the appliance to make sure it works, and show you what changed. Then we go over your warranty.

Appliance repair that fits Palo Alto homes

Palo Alto homes are not all alike. A historic house in Professorville, a mid-century Eichler in the south, and a new build in Crescent Park each have different kitchens. We know how to work in all of them.

Built-in and pro-style kitchens

High-end built-in appliances

Many kitchens have panel-ready fridges, pro-style ranges, and wall ovens. We service Sub-Zero, Wolf, Thermador, and Miele, and we treat cabinets and counters with care.

Going electric

Palo Alto encourages homes to move from gas to electric. If you switched to an induction range, we can help with induction and electric cooktop repair when it acts up or shows an error.

Older homes and long-loved appliances

Older appliances often have good parts left. A smart repair can add years of use and keep a working machine out of the landfill.

Is it worth repairing your appliance? A simple guide

Two questions help most people decide: how old is it, and what does the repair cost compared with a new one?

The 50% rule

If the repair costs more than half the price of a comparable new appliance, replacing is often the better choice. If it costs less, and the appliance is not near the end of its life, repair usually wins.

What changes the price

  • The appliance type and brand. Built-in and luxury parts cost more
  • The failed part and how long the repair takes
  • Rush timing. Emergency and after-hours visits can cost more at many companies

In California, you are entitled to a written estimate before repairs begin. Ours lists parts, labor, and any diagnostic fee. Read more tips on the appliance repair blog.

Typical appliance life and when repair makes sense
ApplianceTypical lifeRepair often makes sense when
RefrigeratorAbout 13 yearsIt is under 10 years old and one part failed
Gas rangeAbout 15 yearsThe fix is an igniter, valve, or burner
Electric rangeAbout 13 yearsThe fix is an element or a sensor
DishwasherAbout 9 yearsIt is under 7 years old and the part is small
Washer and dryer10 to 13 yearsThe problem is a pump, belt, fuse, or element

Appliance repair questions from Palo Alto homeowners

Quick answers to the questions we hear most. Need something else? Call us or use our contact page.

Do you offer emergency appliance repair in Palo Alto?

Yes. Emergency calls go to the front of our schedule. That includes leaks, a fridge that stopped cooling with food inside, and electrical problems. Call us, tell us what is happening, and we will find the fastest visit time we can.

Can you fix my appliance the same day?

We offer same-day appliance repair when the schedule and parts allow. Calling early in the day gives you the best chance. If a part has to be ordered, we tell you before you decide anything.

Are you available 24 hours a day?

You can call or send a service request 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We sort requests by how urgent they are and book the earliest visit we can.

How do I find appliance repair near me in Palo Alto?

We serve all Palo Alto neighborhoods and nearby cities such as Menlo Park, Mountain View, Los Altos, and Atherton. Call us with your address or ZIP code, and we will confirm the earliest visit window.

How much does appliance repair cost?

The price depends on the appliance, the part that failed, the labor time, and whether you need a rush visit. Luxury and built-in models often use costlier parts. California rules require a written estimate before repairs begin, and we do not go above it without your approval.

Is it worth repairing an old appliance?

Use the 50% rule. If the repair costs more than half the price of a comparable new unit, replacing is often smarter. Also think about age. A fridge past 13 years or a dishwasher past 9 years may not be worth a big repair. Our technician will give you an honest answer, even if that answer is to replace it.

Which brands do you repair?

We repair everyday brands like Samsung, LG, Whirlpool, GE, Bosch, KitchenAid, Maytag, Frigidaire, and Kenmore. We also repair premium brands like Sub-Zero, Miele, Wolf, Thermador, Viking, and JennAir. If your brand is not listed, contact us and we will tell you if we can help.

Do you repair built-in and luxury appliances?

Yes. Many Palo Alto kitchens have panel-ready refrigerators, pro-style ranges, wall ovens, and wine coolers. We service these built-in and high-end appliances, including Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Thermador.

Do you repair commercial appliances?

Yes. We help cafes, restaurants, and small offices with commercial refrigeration, ranges, ice machines, and dishwashers. Visit our commercial appliance repair page for details.

How long is food safe if my fridge stops working?

The USDA says a fridge keeps food safe for about 4 hours if you keep the doors closed. A full freezer holds for about 48 hours, and a half-full freezer for about 24. Do not open the doors more than you must, and call us right away.

What should I do before the technician arrives?

Unplug the appliance if it is safe to do so. Clear a path to it. Write down the brand, model number, and any error code. Take a short photo or video of the problem. This helps us bring the right parts and finish faster.
