A technician came by ($90 flat charge) and before opening the dryer quoted $285 plus parts (standard rate for fixing a dryer he said). He could not even assess the problem or quote likely part requirements or cost. He also said repair would only take 30 minutes but he didn't know what needed to be done. Considering the replacement cost of dryer was likely $550 I said no thanks. He was in my house for 90 seconds and I owed him $90 for nothing, not even a proper quote. I then went on Youtube, learned how to open dryer, assess the problem, order the parts and made repair for a grand total of $49. My personal opinion is that this company is more about ripping people off and collecting the service charge then providing reasonable service.
- Approximate cost of services:
- $285.00
