Thank goodness Paul came out of retirement. Every repair person should aspire to be like Paul. Fair, honest, and professional!

Have used Paul Stringer for over 10 years. Need him for my frozen refrigerator. Came online to make sure he's still in business. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAgh! He's retired! Paul was the ultimate professional: highly skilled, straightforward, honest and a pleasure to work with. Now I have to find someone near Camarillo to replace him ... a daunting task. Hats off to you, Paul and many thanks! read more

Without a doubt the best appliance repair companies in Ventura County...if not California! During the COVID-19 pandemic my dishwasher stopped working. I called two different appliance repair companies before coming across Paul at Stinger Appliance Repair. The other two companies one of which did not even return a call and the other one stating they would not respond during COVID-19 to check out my dishwasher. So, I was pleasantly surprised when Paul returned my phone call quickly. To say the least, I am very happy with the service provided by Stinger Appliance Repair and highly recommend them to others. read more

Stringer Appliance Repair - Appliances & Repair Near Me - Ventura, California

I appreciated Paul returning my call and giving his honest opinion regarding my freezer problem. He fixed it at a reasonable price and got us out of a miserable situation given that a new freezer wasn't available at any price for immediate delivery. I've got a refrigerator needing attention in the near future and he will be the guy who I will call for help. read more

Sent request for service quotation and waited 3-days... no reply. I gave up on this company. Thanks

Our microwave works great but we had to push the button several times to get it to open. Through Sandy at Appliance Parts of Oxnard I ordered internal latch parts. She recommended Stringer Appliance Repair to do the installation. WOW, was I pleased with his service. He could have taken the cabinet installed microwave apart blindfolded. He was fast, wore a mask, and showed me the problem with the old part. It was not broken but worn, causing us to slam the door push button to get the door to open. It is as good as new, thanks to Appliance Parts of Oxnard and Paul Stringer Appliance Repair. His fee was reasonable and well deserved. I will call him first for any future appliance problems. read more

Had Paul out to check a problem with my stove. He determined the problem and gave me a quote to fix it. He also mentioned that maybe purchasing a new stove might be a better idea value wise in the long run. I agreed with him and ordered a new stove today. Nice to meet an honest businessman. Thanks Paul. Highly recommended. read more

My husband and I own Meridian Design Construction and we have used Stringer Appliance both professionally + personally on numerous projects and at our own home and are always satisfied with the professionalism + quality of work. Paul is also very kind which is a bonus! I would HIGHLY recommend! read more

I have not used this company, but I called this morning to see if they could look at my washing machine - there is something stuck in it. There is a voicemail that says they're closed and are hoping to reopen in the fall. read more

Stringer Appliances knows what it means to be professional, prompt and honest. We brought him in for a second opinion when another company tried to sell us very expensive repair that didn't make sense. Stringer performed an through inspection and did the research before delivering the bad news that it was not cost effective to repair our dishwasher. I appreciate the integrity and advice. Will use him again when the new dishwasher breaks! read more

Great service. Paul came to our house to repair a front loading washing machine of ours. After evaluating the washing machine Paul was very honest with us and told us that the washer was not worth repairing. We would be better off by buying a new one. We really appreciate his honesty. I definitely recommend him to others. read more

He was great - the only repairman that could (or would) ever fix my built-in refrigerator-freezer. But he has closed his business, so I can't call him any more. read more

I've been using Paul Stringer for appliance repair for years. None better.

This is a five star review for Stringer Appliance Repair. He successfully helped us with our whirlpool refrigerator and washer on two separate occasions. For the refrigerator he ran a diagnostic and advised me to insist that whirlpool honor a recently expired warranty. They did and replaced the part and I avoided a costly repair. For the washer he ran a diagnostic, reset the sensor and gave some great maintenance tips to avoid future issues. I trust Stringer Appliance Repair for all of our major appliances. read more

We've been using Stringer Appliance Repair for decades now, won't use anybody else. Paul is simply the best! He has an amazing amount of knowledge and is very honest and dependable. I called him this time because the water dispenser on our GE refrigerator had an awful taste. He ordered a replacement water tank and installed it which fixed the problem. He was fast and the cost was very reasonable. Paul remains our Go To Guy for appliance repairs! read more

Paul Stringer repaired our Subzero refrigerator/freezer without a hitch. He was able to provide us with same day service. He's been servicing our appliances for over 25 years and is the most reliable and honest person to ever do work for us. You won't find a more honest person to help you. Thank you, Paul read more

Paul Stringer lives up to his 5 star reviews. Not only is he very professional, but personable as well. His text messages kept me up to date on his schedule and appointment time. He showed up wearing N95 mask and latex gloves and was very safety conscious. He used quality factory parts and was able to complete the job on the turn. We have nothing but praise for a job well done! Thank you Paul! Scott O read more

We are so glad to have found Stringer Appliance Repair! Paul is very knowledgeable, efficient and honest. He came out to assess problems with both our washing machine and dishwasher. We have had the washing machine fixed four times by another company (which has deservedly poor Yelp reviews), only to have it break again soon after. Paul told us exactly why the malfunction kept occurring and how to prevent it, thereby saving us from ongoing problems and repair costs. No one had ever given us this information before. The dishwasher needed a new computer system, which is about the cost of a new machine, so he advised us to spring for that instead of putting money into an older model that is showing wear and tear. He gave us tips on what to look for, and otherwise gave top-notch service. Highly recommended! read more

Wow, expert repair tech, 27+ years of know how! Paul showed up today for diagnose on my GE Profile, was able to fix the concern today, he actually had the part I needed on his truck. Thank you Paul! I highly recommend! read more

I wish I could give this business 10 Stars! I recommended Paul to a dear friend of mine and he not only handled her dishwasher repair but was just so caring and attentive to her situation! This gentleman even changed a light bulb up on her ceiling so she did not have to get on a ladder by herself! I cannot say how thankful I am to know that Paul is the person he is - knowledgeable about appliance repair but more so a decent human being!! Do NOT hesitate to call Stringer for your appliance repair needs - you will not be sorry! Thanks Paul! read more

My dryer started making squealing sounds like a fan belt on a car. He explained the probable cause, gave me an estimate of the cost, came at the appointed time, and made the repair for the expected amount. In fact, he had to swap out one of the parts from the replacement kit because that part was not manufactured correctly and still caused noise. I am very pleased to keep my dryer running into the future. read more

Paul has provided service to our GE Monogram refrigerator on a couple of occasions, and done an excellent job each time. He is reliable, knows the operations of appliances very well, and does not overcharge for his services. If he can repair it with a fuse, he will...and has. This knowledge has saved us a great deal of money and Paul is the only person we trust to work on our appliances. read more

Excellent service! Paul was On time, knowledgable and quickly replaced a faulty switch. We're back up & running. I'd highly recommend Paul's service. read more

My husband called Paul Stringer (I left his number on counter because he was highly recommended on Nextdoor website) at 6pm on Friday 9/8/17. Paul diagnosed and fixed our refrigerator in no time and charged a minimal fee! We will always call him for any appliance repair! read more

We have had to call Mr. Stringer over the years several times for our 20 plus year old washer and dryer. First, he is there when he says he will be; second he takes his time to really look at the problem and he's very knowledgeable; third he explains CLEARLY what is going on and how it can be repaired; fourth, he does the repairs that you have agreed on; fifth he charges appropriately. He also has come over to review my work when I have taken the plunge on occassion to work on one of the machines. He has also given us tips on how to use the machinery for longevity...Highly recommend him - which is actually a nice thing to be able to do nowadays. read more

Checking out reviews for dryer repair I came across Stringer. This was the best choice because Paul is a very friendly, professional, great repairman. He knew what he was doing and didn't try to charge me more than what was worth. He's very honest and even gave great advice when it came to appliances. I am going to keep calling him for all my appliance repair needs! read more

I've had Paul Stringer to my house twice, now. Each time he has shown up on time and has taken the time to explain everything to me. I have more than one appliance in need of repair and the repairs are definitely not cost effective. He hasn't tried to "sell" me on anything and has provided me with valuable information to help me make the best decisions for my situation. I will definitely continue to use and endorse his services. read more

Probably one of the worst technicians I've ever had. My regular technician I usually call in for my repairs was on vacation. I called Paul and he charged me $50 for the wrong diagnosis. He refused to give me a refund because what he charged me was for the "house call." He wanted to charge me $400 to repair my dryer and replace the main computer. I called my technician a few days ago and he said it was not that, I just needed to replace the thermal fuse... And spent $20. This company frauds you for money! Wouldn't recommend to anyone unless you want to throw your money away read more

Paul Stringer is the man. He is the fairest repair person that I have ever worked with and he takes time to make sure that I understand everything he is doing and checking. He has come out to my house twice for washer/dryer problems, and he was not only very, very helpful and knowledgeable, but very reasonable. It is so nice to know that I have a "guy" for appliance issues. I won't ever call anyone else. read more

Paul Stringer, the patron saint of appliance repair. I highly highly recommend String Appliance, I was referred by my trusted plumber (JR with Salomon's Plumbing) after my dishwasher broke. Today Paul came (early!) to fix my front load washer. It had torn clothing and the boot came out, it was a disaster. He saved my boot and reassembled it and fixed everything without replacing any parts (a savings of hundreds of dollars, another repairman could have fleeced me- but Stringer is HONEST). He stayed with me through a whole washer cycle to ensure the problem was fixed and his priced was incredibly reasonable. I'm so glad I found Stringer. read more

This is the second time Paul has come to my house to repair an appliance. The first time was my refrigerator and this time my washer. Both times he arrived on time and was very pleasant to deal with. He diagnosed the problem, fixed them and the appliances worked when he left. He always cleans up before he leaves, this is important to me. He is an honest, straight forward person and I would strongly recommend him to all my friends. He also doesn't overcharge. I will call him in the future to repair any appliance issues I have. read more

Paul was prompt, professional and transparent with my repair. Rather than charging me to repair my dishwasher, he recommended I apply the money to a new dishwasher and just charged me for the house call. I really appreciate this kind of integrity! read more

This is a wonderful appliance tech. Very reliable, right to the point and efficient. Thumbs up.

Paul is great. Very professional and great service. I highly recommend him!

My dad used Paul for years before me. He's the best. I just had him fix the igniter on my gas dryer, and also asked him to look at a refrigerator issue. His advice on the refrigerator is it was not worth the fix ( the $$$). You can always count on Paul for trustworthy and great advice. I can tell he's looking longterm clients. I will always use Stringer and will recommend him to anybody. Thanks read more

Paul is very nice, very earnest and very honest. He is also knowledgeable about all my appliances! Really, we are lucky to have him in Ventura! I wouldn't call anyone else. read more

The best ever. Revived our refrigerator. Gracious, thoughtful, helpful, thorough, professional, the best.

I have used Stinger Appliance Repair for more years than I can remember! The service is excellent and honest. Over the years, Paul has serviced all of my GE Monogram appliances, Kenmore and Whirlpool washers, and even some no name oven I once had. He has never had to work on something more than once - It stays fixed! Paul also has a great attitude and very friendly. I recommend Stringer to my family and friends all the time. read more

I have used this local owned business for years. Just a plain honest and good business man. My 70 yr old mother, had appliances just breaking down, one each year. When some electricians were at the house and all of a sudden her stove didn't work, he told us a couple things to try and if they didn't work he would come over in the morning (this was after hours). Of course his suggestion worked. No cost..... 6 months later her dryer was making an awful racket. She called and was told he simply couldn't work on the machine, because the company wouldn't supply the parts. He was 100% right. ( we called around). Result new dryer. Most recently, refrigerator had been leaking. Mom couldn't remember the name and called other repair companies but 3 of them couldn't make it out until Wednesday. She then called me and asked the name of the company. She called Monday morning and he was there by 10. Amazing nice, honest, good and definitely reasonably priced read more
