Appliance PRO Repair

55 to come out. too expensive– and it has a weird google voice announcement when you are calling.

Amazing repair service-​I called Rishat Easter Night, and he made a service call the next evening, working around my work schedule. Expect to pay $ 65 for the service call. If he can’t fix it right then, he will order the necessary parts and fix the appliance when the parts come in. He will apply the service call charge to the final bill. His charges seem very fair.
I agree with the other Unilocaler who said that Rishat is some kind of guardian angel sent to help people with their appliances. He is courteous, respectful, and kind. High marks all around!

Rishat is truly a refrigerator whisperer.
My 20-​year old GE Monogram couldn’t go longer than a month without the refrigerator losing temperature (even though the freezer was fine). I had a GE service policy, and their techs were here three or four times swapping out parts before the company said the refrigerator was beyond repair. There’s no way, though, that I could afford to replace a built-​in Monogram refrigerator right now, so I looked for alternatives.
I had been given the name. of GE’s retired head tech for the region, and had been told that if anyone could fix a GE refrigerator, he could. As you’ve probably guessed — he tried, but he couldn’t, either.
As a last resort I looked through Unilocal and found glowing reviews for Rishat, so I figured calling him was worth a shot.
It took him three tries (with hours of work), and definitely cost more than I had originally expected, but Rishat found and repaired the problems. I now have a functioning refrigerator which both the manufacturer’s warranty service and an expert (who didn’t have a boss telling him «just write it off») considered dead. And after 3+ months, it’s still holding temperature perfectly.
I was reluctant to write this because I firmly believe in jinxes and reverse jinxes; I didn’t want to post this and have the fridge die tomorrow. But I did want people to know that there’s no need to read through pages and pages of reviews — Rishat is the man.

Appliance Pro Repair (Rishat) was my second call for service. The first guy attempted to repair my ancient stove top burner. Upon completion of his task the repairer readied to leave and presented me with a bill. I tested the stove and only one of five temperature settings worked. I sent him away and called Appliance Pro. Rishat found a third wire the previous tech missed and I had a fully working stove in less than 30 minutes. My next step would have been to buy a replacement stove for over $ 800! Appliance Pro saved me a lot!

My 11 year old Fridge was repaired to my satisfaction by Rishat in 2013.
The fridge was on its last leg, a little beat up by the last owner. Amazed by Rishat’s accurate diagnosis and having some obscure part waiting in his truck. I couldn’t even pay him that day, and he was very kind in allowing me to make arrangements.
Fast forward to 2015 — I didn’t vacuum under the fridge like he told me to, and 2 ½ years later the same fridge is broken again. Guess who I called? Amazing to have the continuity of the same guy to service an older appliance. Just as nice as ever.

Rishat is absolutely the best. Don’t go anywhere else for your appliances repair. My front loading washing machine was leaking and I had such a hard time with Samsung repair people that I almost gave up on it. Rishat was able to diagnose what was wrong with it OVER THE PHONE and he was absolutely correct. Not only he repaired everything quickly but also gave me tips on what not to do so the problem doesn’t repeat itself. Truly a professional. I won’t even think of going anywhere else but to him for any appliance repair.

I managed to damage the seal of my front-​loading washing machine. I spoke to Rishat on the phone and gave him the model number so that he could order a replacement part. I was a little worried about the logistics of getting to the washer since it is a stacked unit (dryer above) in a very small room. Rishat lifted the dryer down by himself without breaking a sweat. He removed the old seal and installed the new one quickly and without fumbling. It was clear that he knew what he was doing.
I found Rishat professional and very pleasant to work with.

Very disappointed in the customer service. They will not honor the 20 $ coupon unless its on the first visit which it does not say on there. Came out quickly to look at problem but quite rude when being asked about price break down and being told that I was disappointed with the customer service and that the coupon should be honored as it doesn’t say first visit all he said was if you are not happy with our customer service go somewhere else.

On time, fast, friendly, fair, knowledgeable, i’ve dealt with other appliance companies and with appliance pro there are no complaints.

Has anyone heard from Rashat lately? I called the number and the message that he will be back 2015 is no longer on there so I left a message. Please let him be back in business this young man is awesome.

I had some friends over earlier this week. We were playing soccer in my garage, this was bad idea on my part. One of my friends kicked the ball into the machine, then we all heard a loud noise. One of the pipes were busted, I had no idea what I was going to tell my parents. I decided to consult a repair service, maybe if i got it fixed it would make my punishment less severe. I was browsing the internet until I found a service that could help me as soon as possible. I contacted them to have someone come to our house to repair the message. I was happy to find out that someone would be able to come as soon as the next day. When the repair man arrived he told me that it was an easy fix, but the materials would cost me extra. I told him that was no problem, When I saw the invoice I was very baffled at the cost of the repair. I had no choice but to pay it as the job was already completed. This felt very much like I was being scammed. I needed to inform everyone about my experience to bring awareness about the way this company does business.

Rishat is one in a million!
He must be some type of gaurdian angel in disguise helping people to fix their appliances.
He replaced a part on my dishwasher, the part failed.
It was supposed to be under warranty but it was not, so he paid for a new part himself and installed it free of charge.
Who does that kid of thing anymore!!!
RISHAT does.

A total ripoff! I had two machines in my business that needed repair. Since there were multiple, he quoted me $ 55/​machine for the service call. Typically, he said it was $ 65. One machine he diagnosed in 10 minutes. The 2^nd machine he fixed in 30 seconds. When it came to payment, he charged me $ 75 for the one he fixed! Not what he quoted, nor did I give him permission to proceed with repair! Not to mention, his drill ran out of power and I let him borrow mine. When confronted with the outrageous $ 20 increase he said, «this is business. Anyone else would charge the same.»
Rashat, what ever happened to common sense! I said I was going to charge him $ 20 for the use of my drill. Lol! I’m infuriated at the lack of common decency with repairmen these days. Dishonest work practice!
So much for a business relationship that could have made him thousands! Instead, he walks away with a cool $ 130 for 10:30 worth of work!

Rishat is the best, even if my washing machine is a lemon. He has fixed it 3 times and this last time he didn’t charge because it was under warranty, which we were not even aware of. I bet most other places would have charged us.

Thanks Rishat!
I have this Korean Kimchi fridge called DimChae. It’s very well-​known in Korea but not at all in the US, so I had hard time find the fridge repair person who willing to try to fix my fridge. Some of my friends said that it would be easier to just buy a new one (which cost more then 1K) then repair here in San Diego. When I called Rishat for the first time, he mentioned that he never heard of the brand but unlike other repair person he said the he would come and check out and try to repair. It required for him to do a few visits since this is unknown brand in US and it’s his first time to repair this kimchi fridge, but he ordered couple parts and was able to fix my fridge!!! Thanks again!!!

I love reading all the great reviews. When I called the number, the voice mail states he is ’”…Out of Business until July 10, 2015. Thanks for understanding.” No working website… it just shows a Go Daddy screen. I was referred by a colleague of mine.
Does anyone know why there is a ‘hiatus’ for 13 months?

Rishat is a SUPA STAR!!! Seriously!
First off I was running late and he actually waited on me. Like a Dr., Rishat diagnosed the problem with my washing machine, gave too possible causes, he provided estimate, found the problem, fixed it fast, and was out the door. My families washing machine works again.
Rishat service is OUTSTANDING!
Do yourself a favor, if your appliance is broken? You just might think about calling Rishat.
This guy really is a pro!

I made an appointment with Rashat for 2 days from now, he called me back almost immediately and said he had a cancellation and was able to come out an hour later. He assessed the issue with my washer, gave me a fair quote, had the part in his vehicle and was able to fix it immediately. While he had the washer open, he checked for any other obvious issues and re-​balanced the machine. He also gave me some good advice on my microwave that’s on the way out.
Very satisfied and will call him for any future appliance repairs
Thanks Rashat!

Rishat fixed my washer quickly on a Saturday (much appreciated this getting repaired ASAP). Courteous and professional. Will call him again for future appliance repair for sure.
Thanks Rishat!

I’m not really sure how to go about this. And I feel bad about it, but hear me out: this is our experience, and I doubt this would happen again, but… I felt I needed to update it to reflect our experience.
It turns out that the repair didn’t really hold up. Had to throw out food again. Was not happy about that. So when I told my friend that the repair didn’t hold up, he wasn’t pleased either — this meant spending a lot more money as Rishat claimed that there would be a lot more work to be done, more money spent, etc. etc. We had really tried to ensure that another repair would not be happening, because my friend had gotten really close to spending a decent amount that would better go to a brand new refrigerator. Why spend all this money on repairs if we end up having to get a new refrigerator anyways?
And why did Rishat have the part already with him after he evaluated the refrigerator the first time? Do repairmen always have the part on hand? My friend expressed doubt when that happened, but I brushed it off. I’m wondering if that was something I should’ve considered before.
Anyhow, I ended up being out of town and in a different living situation for a while. but remained the contact for Rishat. I told him that we weren’t happy about the repairs and he offered to make more repairs, but it would still cost a lot. The reason we were happy about this was as stated before: we might as well spend the money on a new refrigerator. Why was Rishat’s professional opinion, that the repair would be worth it — knowing we didn’t want to spend more money but would buy another refrigerator if only this repair would need to be done — more or less disproved by the fridge again breaking?
Now, this wasn’t what I wanted to do, but my friend did it anyways: he stopped payment on the check and asked that Rishat fix it again, the way it should’ve been fixed, the way Rishat said it would be fixed.
As I was the person who called in for repairs, Rishat called me several times when I told him I was unable to give him answers and I would check with my friend to connect them. Even before Rishat discovered the stopped check, he was calling me a little more than I’d preferred; I felt like I was getting hounded for him to do the new repairs.
After the hounding, I was hesitant to give Rishat my friend’s phone number fearing it would escalate a little too much too quickly, so I gave my friend Rishat’s phone number instead. I’m not sure the status of what happened afterwards, but I’m fairly certain my friend did not have Rishat return. I don’t know what action will happen because of the stopped check (and I probably wouldn’t have handled it that way, but that is what went down).
All in all, I’m disappointed. The way the fridge broke down again a few days later just was not a good sign.
