Our clothes washer stopped working recently, prompting a search for a reputable, effective…read moreappliance repair company. The reviews I found didn't impress me much. Many were negative and some of the positive ones almost seemed like they had their relatives write them. So, I took a chance on Fort Road Appliances and called them. I accurately described the problem with washer and the guy on the other end of the line was almost certain he knew what it was. (Another place I called had the guy telling me it could be the wiring, etc. He didn't have a clue!) I asked how much it would be and he said he could be here the next day. I got a two hour window and he was here 15 minutes into that time window. He got right to work, diagnosed the problem and fixed it. I think he was here less than an hour. I paid what I was quoted and I wasn't going to have to worry about dirty clothes any longer. I paid cash, but I could have also paid by cheque. He didn't have debit and I'm not sure if he could take a credit card, so keep that in mind. The washing machine has operated flawlessly since. I won't hesitate to give Fort Road Appliances a call again should I need another repair. For obvious reasons, I hope I don't have to call them again! Appliance repair tips: - Do some research online before you call an appliance repair company. It's almost guaranteed that someone out there has had the same problem you've had and they've written about it online. In doing this you'll have a rough idea what the problem is, so if the guys on the other end of the phone don't sound like they've got a clue based on your accurate description of the problem, maybe take a pass on their services. Obviously it could be something else, but there's a good chance you can narrow down the range of possibilities. - Make sure to note the make and model number of your appliance when you call, as well as a thorough description of the problem. You'll want to make sure the repairman knows the key details so he can bring the right parts with him.

Absolutely awful experience from start to finish. If I could give zero stars I would…read more The first technician was rude, dismissive, and spoke to me like I was incompetent -- constantly interrupting and ignoring what I was saying. He claimed he fixed my dryer. He didn't. After it broke again, they suddenly decided it needed replacing. Then came the complete lack of communication -- over a week went by with no update until I had to chase them down. Scheduling was a joke. They refused to work around normal 9-5 jobs, then promised a weekend delivery before noon. Shockingly, they didn't show up on time. I had to call them at 11:40am just to remind them, only to be told to reschedule. They then promised to call Monday. They didn't. I had to call again Tuesday. Three weeks later, still no working dryer and nothing but broken promises, rude service, and zero accountability. If you enjoy being talked down to, ignored, and chasing a company to do the bare minimum, this is the place for you. Otherwise, stay far away.

I called using the Yelp page, which I think is the easiest way to contact them. I believe their number is incorrect if you simply google them. However, it is correct here! The woman I spoke with on the phone was personable and ensured we had our appointment made. We had John come in to fix our Dishwasher and Oven. He did an awesome job and everything was fixed in no time. I'm very glad that everything was sorted out all in one night. I was super worried that it would be something unfixable. It came out to be about $600 for both appliances to be fixed. Very reasonable when you consider the cost of replacement! I would definitely recommend GoTech to anyone!

I wrote this for google reviews, but may as well spread it around:…read more If you use these guys for an appliance repair, you can rest assured they will be late - even for an all-day appointment - if they bother to show up at all. I've had this company do a number of appliance repairs at my rental unit. They have never once been on time ("on time" being at least a 4 hour appointment window). They don't call. They schedule all day appointments, then no-show and no-call. They were supposed to install a control board in my 2 year old washing machine this afternoon (purchased from Appliance Outlet, of course), that has been non-functional for three weeks now. "Between 1 and 5", they said. When I hadn't heard from anybody all afternoon, I called them to make certain someone was coming, which they reassured me someone was. So I waited. And waited. Nobody showed up. Nobody called. I didn't hire them, and wouldn't, but the property manager seems to like using them. I have now told her not to send them over again. It would probably have cost me less to hire someone reliable myself to fix the machine than the value of the time I've lost sitting around waiting for chronic lates and no-shows. Don't hire these people for your repairs. Don't buy anything from them. They're patently unreliable. Note: Yelp for some ridiculous reason places my location in California in spite of my attempts to correct it. I'm in Edmonton.

He also cleaned underneath my stove (40 dollars- a discount of 30, he said). He refused to give me a receipt because he gave me a discount. I am reporting him to the cra and consumer ripoffs. Obviously, he is not claiming the money on his taxes. What a jerk. It is illegal to not provide a receipt when a customer requests one.

He promptly identified the pump that failed in my washer and had a replacement in his vehicle. Took him a few minutes and the deed was done! He left me the parts to verify the work (thank you!) I appreciated his care and cleaning up making the work look effortless (and I know it wasn't!). He had to make some electrical connections for the replacement pump and it was working on no time! I will happily pay for his expertise any day!
