Why does my dryer vent require cleaning?
Dryer vent cleaning involves using specialized tools capable of cleaning narrow pipes and vents. During the process of drying clothes, a dryer blows hot air across fabrics. The machine dislodges very small, lightweight bits of material called “lint” from garments’ surfaces. Most of these fine strands collect within the lint screen (safety experts recommend regularly performing dryer lint screen cleaning for this reason). However, a small percentage of lint passes across the lint screen barrier and exits through a dryer vent. Over time, due to airflow patterns, lint may accumulate within the vent pipe. The delicate strands may form clogs capable of obstructing airflow. Customers help prevent the buildup of lint by performing lint screen cleaning frequently and by asking a cleaner to remove this potentially flammable material at regular intervals.

How do I eliminate the foul odor coming from my garbage disposal?
This is a common plumbing troubleshooting question. Foul odors occur from a buildup of food debris within the disposal. To eliminate odors, place ice cubes and lemon peels or orange peels in the disposal and run for 30 seconds. Next, squirt a little liquid dish detergent into the disposer while it is still running. Finally, run cold water for about 30 seconds to rinse all the debris away.
My refrigerator is not cooling; the freezer has cool air, but it's not freezing, and the bottom is not cool enough either. It's a used Frigidaire refrigerator, so I'm not sure how old it is. Can you give me an estimate?
We have a service fee, that's for our technician to come out. He will do the full diagnostics and provide you with an estimate for the problem. Once you proceed to do the repairs with us, that fee will go towards the repair costs.

Why do I blow fuses or why does my circuit breaker trip?

I need a refrigerator repair quote. The fridge broke last Monday and needed repairs right away. The manager bought and sent a new refrigerator, but it is a mini-fridge. The broken one is a full-size fridge which I need.
We usually send out a technician to check on your unit and give you a quote on that. The service fee will be for our technician to come out. That will be waived if you proceed with the repairs. Unfortunately, the technician for your area is currently on leave, but I can refer you to another service company that can help you.
