Oven Repair

I was very pleased with the quality of service provided by Yuri. The difficulty with my stove was assessed, the part was ordered and installed with efficiency. Yuri performed the tasks in a friendly, competent manner. Yuri even set the clock on the stove, a clock whose operations had been mystifying me. I would not hesitate to call Capital Appliance Repair for any of my appliance difficulties.

Repair of clothes dryer

Our clothes dryer is attached to the top of the washing machine in what was essentially a very narrow closet. Our repairman had to spend a lot of time and an exhausting amount of energy to pull the appliances into a position where he could examine the dryer and find out why it had stopped working. After removing several large parts he determined that a pulley had broken and needed replacing. He returned three days later with a replacement pulley which he installed and then replaced all the parts he had removed. He worked quickly but carefully and finished the job. Pushing the appliances back into place also required a lot of physical effort.
We were impressed by his knowledge and ability.

Dishwasher Repair

Their technician came for inspection at an agreed cost of $100, while looking took out garbage from drain pipe, spending few minutes, demanded $280. When protested he called a lady and they spoke in a foreign language. She threatened to send my file to recovery. Her tone was highly disrespectful and unprofessional. Feeling being fleeced.

Hi Brij,

The service charge for diagnostics of the issue is $100 as you were aware of before. Once the diagnostic was completed, you were informed that the repair would cost $250 and agreed to pay this amount. As you agreed, the technician moved forward with the repair and the dishwasher was fixed back to working order. After the repair was completed you mentioned you needed approval from the insurance company and asked if you could pay $100 and pay the rest in a week. It was explained that we do not normally allow this as we must take payment up front, but I gave you an exception to pay the rest in exactly one week.

After a week you said you still needed more time to hear back from the insurance company and did not want to pay the final amount. As I had already allowed a week past when we normally would collect payment, I informed you that this would not be possible and we would have to collect the payment then. You agreed to pay the rest of the balance, but asked me to change the date of the invoice to that day’s date. I informed you that doing so would be fraudulent and I could not do that. I hope you can understand that we did our best to help you by allowing you an extra week to pay, and the dishwasher was repaired back to working condition.

Sincerely,
Capital Appliance Repair

Counter Top Stove Element

Capital Appliance was quick to send out a repair man who was able to assess the problem. One of the burners of my Jenn-Air glass counter top stove wasn't working, and as it wasn't the switch, it was determined to be the element. A new one was ordered, which took 3 months to arrive. Andre returned to complete the repair, but when he opened the cassette we saw that there was a serious problem with the wiring of the other burner. It was an assembly fault. Thank goodness he was able to fix it, as well as replace the burnt out element, and all is good. I am grateful to Andre for his excellent work.

Good work but pricy

The service technician did a fine job yesterday. The fridge is working and the repair was completed successfully.

Having said that, I do have some concerns I would like to raise:
He was late. Originally scheduled for 10:30, he arrived at 12:30. I called the dispatcher at 11am to confirm when he was coming.
I didn't receive an estimate before the work was completed. The work was done and I was then asked to pay.
The repair is too expensive. $350 for the installation of an off the shelf part is too much. The technician's labour rate is too high. He was onside and I was charged $200. A labour rate of $200 is much too high for this time of work. The markup on parts is also too much. I was charged $112 for a small part which I later found online for $30. (I don't expect to pay online prices for parts that a repair person has onhand, this feels exorbitant.) I would expect this repair would be closer to $200 ($70 parts, $120 labour).
In summary, while I have no complaints about the quality of the work, I won't be using them or recommending them again due to the way the work was priced and quoted.

Hi Ken,

We are sorry to hear you were not completely satisfied with your service. As for the arrival time, we do not give set arrival times as we allow for a 2-hour window for the technician to arrive. We allow for this 2-hour window as the technician's arrival is dependent on the time it takes to complete the previous job. We are sorry that this was not made clear to you when you scheduled your appointment. Our technicians are always supposed to quote the repair price and ask for approval before proceeding with the repair. We apologize that you did not receive an estimate beforehand and will ensure all of our technicians ask ahead of time. As for the price, we do not make the prices for the parts, as the prices are set by the supplier where we get the parts shipped to us from. Ordering parts from our manufacturer does ensure that the part is from the original manufacturer.

We are sorry that you did not have a great experience with us, however we are glad that your appliance was fixed successfully.

Sincerely,
Capital Appliance Repair

Stove Repair

Stove control panel needed to be replaced. Had not used Capital Appliance Repair in the past but was extremely happy with their service. Arrived in the timeframe given, determined part needed to be ordered, came back late in the day to make the repair. Will be contacting Capital Appliance Repair if needed in the future and will recommend them to friends and family.
