I was not given an estimate or an option but he went to work with the job. Be aware that they don't charge by the hour they have something called msrp where I was charged 280$ for labor but he was only here for an hour and a half. I was not given an estimate or told of their policy. He was supposed to be here Monday with the other part and I as told between 10-11 he didn't show so I had to call the company and was told he might be here around 3. IMHO this was pretty shady and anyone hiring them should keep in mind...280$ for labor for 1 1/2 hours picking dirt out of the dishwasher is absurd. Buyer beware

I was just stating what I was looking for pertaining to the quote range I was hoping to get over the phone. (I was told the cost was 89.95 for a diagnostic fee and estimate) I was trying to get more information as to what the repair would cost so I could determine if a replacement would be better than a repair. I heard the repair on bearings is expensive. I totally understood the cost she gave me but she didn't have to keep cutting me off and then asking if I wanted to make an apointment. I told her no and told her to have a good day before I hung up. Will never go here for anything in the future since this was the first impression. Sad.

It is getting harder to find competent, yet prompt service providers. It seems no one wants to…read morework, nor or has ETHICS anymore. As a professional mechanic I have always maintained my own appliances, yet as of late I can no longer do so due to injury. I became very frustrated in not finding a company who would provide service quickly, and send people who actually know what they are doing, let alone clean up properly after themselves. First encounter: My 84yr old father found this company on his phone, on what site I do not know, after I had sent the last man packing for being a crook, to say the least, enough said. My father told me this new fella would be out to fix our fridge's ice maker at 8 O'clock. I said "Dad that's a bit early", "No, 8pm tonight he said". Dad had just spoken to him and it was 5pm. Well, the prompt service box got checked anyway. When he arrived he was clean well groomed, in uniform, shook my hand with a proper man's grip and looked me straight in the eye, Manners, checked. I had the parts, a replacement ice maker which he installed with the ease of a seasoned pro. he stayed another hour to make sure it worked. He reluctantly left at 10 pm when it still had not made ice. He had came to the conclusion that the computer had to reset, but if it did not work he would be back tomorrow for further diagnosis. It dropped ice about 12pm and has been fine ever since. I felt he had undercharged for the after hours service and the work he did, so we tipped him well. He did all he could to refuse the extra money, but reluctantly accepted it when I told him I would be insulted if he did not. Second Service call: Our dryer started making a squealing bearing noise. I was confused as I had cleaned its insides and replaced the drum rollers, belt, tensioner and the drum center bearing but 3 years ago, I recognized the sound as a likely drum roller bearing going bad. So I called them again. I had ordered the the parts I believed were going bad from Amazon to get them here quickly. When Ali opened the dryer it was clear that a drum roller was squealing as I suspected. He refused to install the rollers I had ordered and went to his truck to retrieve OEM rollers as the ones I had were inferior, "would be more noisy". I expected an upcharge for the parts off the truck, but no, he gifted them to me as I had the parts but he would not install the lesser product. They are not expensive but a gift none the less. I do not know who else works for this company, but, if they are as competent, well mannered, prompt and economically reasonable as my tech, Ali, I will recommend them as servicemen of high order. P.

Do yourself a favor call the manufacturer and request repair from them. They will actually send a certified tech out. That's not gonna try and upsell you apart that you actually don't need because of lack of total investigation of your issue. That was the problem. The tech was lazy. He didn't complete the job and said he was up selling me a higher priced part that I didn't even need. What a crappy business.

We purchased our vacuum there, and go there for parts and vacuum bags. No regrets. We've also had three different sewing machines serviced there, and they've always come back just like new (not the easiest feat with at least one of those machines!) In short, thank goodness for Cathey's Sewing and Vac -- service done like it ought to be, in my opinion. We use their Speedway location, but I can't imagine their other(s) are anything other than superb! We will be back again and again, rest assured.
