Appliance Maintenance in the San Francisco Bay Area

Bay Appliance Repair offers in-home maintenance visits for refrigerators, washers, dryers, dishwashers, ovens and ranges. A technician checks and cleans the parts that wear out first, so small problems get caught before they turn into a breakdown. Visits are on weekdays, Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm.

Maintenance visits for the appliances you already have

Most breakdowns start with something small: dusty condenser coils, a clogged drain filter, a worn door gasket or a dryer vent that doesn’t move enough air. A maintenance visit is a planned appointment to look at those parts while the appliance still works. It suits homeowners with older appliances, people who want to keep a high-end kitchen running well, and landlords who want fewer tenant calls. We maintain and repair appliances that are already in place; we don’t install new appliances.

What a maintenance visit covers

• Refrigerators and freezers: clean the condenser coils, check the fans, door gaskets, temperatures, defrost drain and ice maker water line
• Washers: check hoses and connections for wear, clean the drain pump filter where the model has one, check the door boot and leveling
• Dryers: check airflow at the back of the dryer, clean the lint path inside the cabinet, and tell you if the vent run needs a full duct cleaning
• Dishwashers: clean the filter and spray arms, check the drain, door seal and water inlet
• Ovens, ranges and cooktops: check igniters and burners, door seals and oven temperature
• Microwaves: check the door, latch and switches on built-in and over-the-range units

After the visit, the technician tells you what was cleaned, what looks worn and what could fail soon. If a part needs replacing, you get the exact price before any work starts, and nothing goes ahead until you say yes.

How often to schedule maintenance

Once a year works for most households. Refrigerators in warm garages, dryers with long vent runs, and washers and dishwashers in heavy family use can benefit from a check every six months. Rentals are easiest to maintain between tenants or on a yearly schedule.

Maintenance for rentals and property managers

Landlords, HOAs and building managers can schedule maintenance for several units in one visit plan and get written findings for each unit. See appliance repair for property managers.

Booking a maintenance visit

Call 415-585-5900 or book online and tell us which appliances you’d like checked, with brands and models if you know them. Choose an 8am–12pm or 12pm–5pm window, and the technician calls or texts on the way. Our $25 coupons and the 10% senior discount on labor apply to repair work, not the service call.

Already broken? Book a repair instead: same-day weekday service is often available, and the $219 service call is free if you go with the repair.
