How fast can someone get out to East Palo Alto?

A technician based right here in San Mateo County handles East Palo Alto, so you're not waiting on a drive over from the East Bay. We're open seven days a week, and that difference usually means a same-week appointment instead of a two-week one. We'll tell you plainly if that's not realistic on a given week rather than promise same-day.

Is it worth fixing an older LG washer or dryer, or replacing it?

Most of the time, fixing wins. LE codes, heating elements, and thermal cutoffs are all parts well under the cost of a new machine installed. We put the real number in a written quote before we start, so the decision is yours to make with facts in hand.

What does the diagnostic cost, and do I still pay it if I book the repair?

The diagnostic is $99. Book the repair with us and that $99 is credited toward the repair, so the only way you pay it on its own is if you decide not to move forward after we've looked at the unit.

Straight answer

LG dishwashers we do not take.

LG dishwashers are not a repair we take. Not any model, any year.

It is not a knock on the machines. It is the parts pricing. What a circulation pump, a control board, or a touch panel costs on one of these, set against what the dishwasher sold for new, turns the repair into a bad buy for you more often than not. We would rather tell you that here than charge you $99 to say it in your kitchen.

Everything else from these brands we still fix: refrigerators, ranges, ovens, cooktops, washers, and dryers. We repair dishwashers from every other brand.

That answer does not change by town, so it holds in East Palo Alto the same as anywhere else we run. Call us on the rest of the kitchen and we will be out.

Serviced: Fisher & Paykel, Miele, Cove, Asko. We also service every other residential and commercial brand.
Not serviced: LG, Samsung, Bosch, KitchenAid, Whirlpool, Jenn-Air dishwashers
Still serviced on those brands: refrigerators, ranges, ovens, cooktops, washers, dryers

LG in East Palo Alto

LG in East Palo Alto kitchens.

East Palo Alto packs more households into less land than most Peninsula cities, and the housing leans toward duplexes, rentals, and older apartment buildings rather than single-family stock. That density shows up in our call volume: more laundry work here than in most other Peninsula cities we cover, on top of the fridges that come standard with a lot of these rental units. LG is the volume brand in both categories.

Water and ice systems

The water inlet valve, a common fridge leak.

Every fridge with a dispenser or ice maker has a water inlet valve. The fittings can leak under the cabinet, or the solenoid fails and the dispenser and ice maker stop getting water.

Laundry

How to spot a bad washer drain pump.

LG and Samsung washer drain pumps side by side. When a washer will not drain or hums at the end of a cycle, this small pump is the usual suspect, and the two brands fail in different ways.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

LE motor fault on dual-inverter washers. Spin cycle stalls when the rotor-position sensor drifts. Sensor replacement and calibration, most jobs start with an on-site diagnosis and a written estimate.
Dryer no-heat: element and thermal cutoff. Cold air on the cycle. We test the heating element, the thermistor, and the cutoff, then replace only the part that actually failed.
Linear-compressor check on 2014-2019 LG fridges. Compressor keeps turning, box goes warm. Serial gets matched to LG's program before we quote labor.
Evap-fan motor and icemaker on newer LG fridges. The common failure on post-2020 LG cooling. We usually stock the common repair parts, and we confirm timing after the on-site diagnosis.
