Happy Customers Share Their Fridge Repair Stories

Pavlov was amazing. He explained everything and walked me through the repair process. He also helped protect the floor from damage when moving the fridge. He also spotted another problem and essentially saved me from another service call. The part he replaced was clearly deteriorating. Love the overall service from the initial call/operator to the repair and even the payment. Fair and reasonable pricing. Thank you!

Mary K

I cannot recommend Appliance Technician highly enough. Our technician, Pavlo, was superb and a pleasure to deal with. Service for our refrigerator was prompt, courteous and efficient, and Pavlo was highly professional. We will certainly use their services again, if the need arises.

Vernon Stringer

was in dire need of help in revitalizing my 3 yr old Whirlpool refrigerator, much too young to bury. Yuri came to the rescue offering great advice, locating the issue and quickly sourced the part (control panel) required. Thank you “5 star”

Scott Foeller

I was surprised with the level of service provided by Appliance Technician. After submitting my online request Monday morning, I had a call from a very capable woman who confirmed my appointment for Tuesday morning. Lurii arrived on-time, he worked efficiently to diagnose the problem and had my fridge/freezer back to functioning well within 20 mins. I will pass along Appliance Technician Ltd as a reputable, small business run in Ottawa to my friends and family.

Sandra Anderson

Appliance Technician were a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. My request for a same-day site visit to diagnose a malfunctioning fridge/freezer was graciously accommodated. Lurii arrived at the scheduled time, was professional and courteous. He quickly identified the issue and was able to undertake the repair immediately. Can't recommend Appliance Technician highly enough.

Is it worth it to repair a refrigerator?

Yes — most repairs cost less than half the price of a new fridge. If the unit is under 10 years old, repairs are usually the smarter choice.

Can I fix a fridge myself?

Minor issues like dirty coils or loose door seals can be DIY, but electrical or cooling repairs should only be done by a certified technician

What is the best refrigerator brand in Canada?

Reliable brands include LG, Whirlpool, Samsung, Bosch, and Maytag for performance and parts availability in Canada.
