Choose the right Appliance Repair Service
It can be difficult to know which Sydney Appliance Repair Service to call when your fridge needs repairs or dishwasher needs servicing.There are some things you should look for, and some things to look out for, when deciding. If you've ever felt that you were over-charged, or taken advantage of, by an Appliance Repair Service, you need to read this.
- Ask your friends for a referral. The very best way to find an Appliance Repair Service is by "Referral". When someone you know recommends a company they were completely happy with(which includes service, price, professionalism, etc.)then you already know you're getting a good company. Just be sure you trust this person's opinion!
- Ensure the person is registered. The Sydney Appliance Repair Service business should be registered with an ABN for that state.
- Check the length of time the company has been in business at the same location, under the same name. A company with a long local history is a better bet than a recent startup with no history in the area.
- Look to see that they are in the major business internet directories.(yellowpages.com.au, trulocal, google maps, yahoo local, etc.)
- Weigh the benefits of the personal attention you will receive from a family-owned business vs the unknown technician a larger company will send. A local person has a reputation to uphold locally. A representative of a large national chain however, may or may not be concerned about giving you the best deals or service.
- Use a reputable business that has a contact address and a landline number. It may cost you more in the long run by getting the local repair guy that sticks a card up on your local supermarket noticeboard & who operates from his van or ute with a mobile phone number, you should consider this a red flag.
Tips
- Consider the value of the appliance you are repairing. It may be more economical to replace an appliance than to repair it, when cost, life expectancy, and efficiency are considered.
- Before replacing an appliance, it's worth a service call to find out exactly what's wrong. Many times people will buy a new appliance without even checking out what it would take to fix the one they have. They assume it's going to cost too much when sometimes it's a quick, minor, inexpensive repair. (providing you call an "honest" repair service)
