This morning around 8:15, my wife called Tikal to request a visit for maintenance on our dryer. At around 8:45 Angel Sandoval showed up and got to figuring out the issue. By 9:10, he had cleaned the dryer of years of lint, replaced the roller kit and completed the job. He is impressively efficient, rapid, very reasonable and a pleasure to have him work on our equipment. If I could give him a six Star rating, I would be happy to do so. Thank you, Angel. read more

Beyond pleased, my washer stopped working roughly a week ago and I immediately got worried seeing I depend strongly upon my washer & dryer to wash my scrubs and work attire in taking all precautions for Covid-19 (I'm a first -responder and still take every step in being cautious), I reached out to Angel via Tikal Appliance Repair and not only was his professionalism perfect, he reassured me that everything would be ok and provided information for potential diagnosis for the issue at hand. Having showed up early, wearing a mask and was cost efficient, timely and truly a phenomenal resource for my issue. The washer was fixed and financially feasible.I will highly recommend him to anyone and everyone I know, THANK YOU!!!! USN Veteran Jared W. Holzer read more

Awesome service! Our washer went out in our vacation rental home and the two month rental guests had laundry to do. We called Angel, voila, he was able to come out within an hour, had the part in his car and done! Will use them again as with our kind of rental home time and satisfaction are paramount. We strive to make our guests stay hassle free, after all, they are on vacation! Thanks Angel! read more

Thank you! My washing machine failed and I found Tikal Appliance repair service here in Yelp. I called right when they opened. The owner answered my call, took some detail and gave me a time he would come to my house to do the repairs. He was here in less that 30 minutes looked the washer over and told me that this old washer was a good model and that "they don't make them like this today". I had found a small piece of plastic at the foot of washer which I had set aside in case it meant anything to him. It did, and he replaced a switch and all was good. He said that he always kept these switches on hand as there were so many of this model still in service. Anyway, the repair took 10 minutes reasonable price and out the door. Wow! Can't ask for more than that. And, I didn't have to replace the washer! I highly recommend this company. read more

Every time we have needed appliance repair, Angel Sandoval helped us so quickly with our stove, our washing machine and our freezer. Next is the dishwasher. He arrived on the same day as our call for help. He explained what was wrong so that my mom and I could understand what the problem was. I truly appreciate him. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this local business. He worked with a mask on and let us know he was vaccinated. Great man,Excellent , local business. read more

Awesome, affordable, timely and professional service. Angel is always a pleasure to deal with. I have had him over to do repairs on my oven and washing machine. He is so quick at figuring out what the problem is. Also if he doesn't already have the part with him on the truck he gets it in a day or two. I will definitely be calling Angel when I have an appliance that is in need of repair and will refer all my family and friends to him. read more

See all

Angel is such a great guy, usually fixes the problem in his first visit. I love that he usually has the part needed to fix our appliances. None of the, well let's try this and see attitude. He knows his stuff and gets it done and without the huge price tag. Thanks Angel, you're the best! read more

Twice we've had Angel out. He is so professional so nice. He does great work and is so reasonably priced. He is very honest and upfront. He educates you as well he does t just repair or install. We do not plan to call another repair person again! He deserves 10 stars he leaves his work area the cleanest many repair people leave dirty messes not Angel! He is very meticulous about his work. We can't say enough good things about him. This message was not paid for not was it part of a promotion nor are we friends or family of this business. :) just thought I throw that in since since it was such a glowing review and reads almost like a fake lol. Seriously you can't go wrong hiring Angel like other reviewers have said that's how we found him #Yelp. read more

I just wanted to write this review because I was so impressed with Angel service respect and knowing his business. The price was fantastic he was there on time repairs are made in a very short time and guess what it's still works. I would recommend Angel for any other type of appliance repair on the spot read more

We were having a big problem with our freezer, which was failing to keep our food frozen and chattering like a chipmunk caught in a trap. The first appliance/repair company in town that we called said they couldn't get out to take a look at our refrigerator/freezer for 13 days, so we called Tikal Appliance Repair. Angel Sandoval of Tikal Appliance Repair stopped by the morning after we called him about our chattering refrigerator/freezer that wouldn't stay cold. Angel quickly determined that the chattering sound our 13 year old refrigerator/freezer was making was the compressor starter solenoid, which was not fully engaging. Angel removed the original, went to his truck for a new starter solenoid and installed it. Angel took 30 minutes from start to finish and he didn't charge us for the part or the service call, just to be sure the starter solenoid was the only issue. After Angel left, the freezer chilled down quickly with the new starter solenoid, achieving and maintaining the freezer temperature we set. We have heard no chattering over the Memorial Day weekend and the refrigerator/freezer is working perfectly now. We called Angel back this morning to let him know that the compressor starter solenoid appeared to be the only problem and he said we could mail him the check or he could stop by to pick up the check. Tikal Appliance Repair has the quickest service in Lompoc...next day service and for us, he was in and out in 30 minutes. COVID vaccinated and wearing his mask properly, Angel is funny but all business...and he had the part we needed in his truck. We highly recommend Tikal Appliance Repair! read more

Angel Sandoval of Tikal Appliance Repair is golden! I was immediately impressed by both his prompt response to my call and his professional know-how. I soon saw in him not only an amazing expertise and work ethic, but also a true passion for what he does. He is the kind of person you would want as a friend and one you'd certainly want in your corner if something goes wrong. Lucky for the folks of Lompoc, if you have an appliance that isn't working - you can call him and he'll be there for you! On a scale of 1-10 - I give him a 12! I believe a person's work is a form of worship. Each of us leaves behind a monument testifying to our spirit selves. The results could end up being just a small pile of rocks or a truly grand creation. It is up to each one of us. I think Angel Sandoval's will be reflective of the pyramid in the the Mayan city, Tikal that's pictured on his business card! We all could take a lesson from his example. Kudos to Yelp! I have come to rely on this app and others' reviews. read more

Angel is the best appliance repair person we've ever had. Called him to see if he could tell if our refrigerator was dead. He said absolutely not and was able to fix it in minutes. read more

Angel has been repairing my appliances for about 8 years. His diagnostic abilities are quite impressive, and he is always concerned about keeping repair costs down as much as possible. Over the years he has fixed my washing machine, dishwasher, and refrigerator. In each case he quickly and correctly diagnosed the problem, completed the repair in short order, and kept the cost down to a level that was quite reasonable. I highly recommend him. read more

The repair person was efficient and fast to repair my dishwasher. He responded quickly to my situation same-day service. Fixed my dishwasher quickly and charged a very fair price. I highly recommend Tikal Appliance repair. read more

I have previously written a review for Tikal and have used their service for various repairs over the past 5 years. I had to call them again just a couple of weeks ago. And as always the service was top performance. Very knowledgeable. Reasonable price. Thank you again. read more

Called him came to my place on time he was pleasant & cordial told me what was the problem worked on my fridge for an hr got it fix I wish there a lot of him instead having others that just BS & overcharge me thanks again angel have a great holiday read more

Our Kenmore washer died after the tub filled up with a load of clothes. Wouldn't do anything. It's probably 15 years old. Based on Yelp reviews I called TIKAL the next day. Angel stopped by that morning and diagnosed the problem within 90 seconds, had the part in his truck, and the washer was working 20 minutes later. He only changed for the service call and not the faulty part. I was extremely impressed. This appliance repair business is super. Definitely 5 stars! read more

Professional, honest and personable. Will call Angel again if I have any appliance needs. Would recommend him to anyone.

So, we had this amazing experience and I thought I'd share it with you. Our washer died last week, well, we thought it had anyway. So we researched repair guys and found that Tikal Appliance Repair had the best reviews. So we called them. Angel answered and after listening to our story, he listed a couple of things it could be and said "Honestly, I'll charge $30 to come by. You may want to check those things out first." Louis was blown away. This guy was offering free advice as opposed to charging us for what could be a simple problem! Well, we don't know the inside of a washer from the inside of a gnat so Louis asked him to come by anyway. He liked the guy right off for being honest and he felt comfortable with him coming over. Being schizophrenic, it's HUGE for Louis to try to trust someone new like that. Anyone who knows him understands just how big that is. So, Angel shows up and is just the nicest guy ever. He looks into it and discovers that the safety switch was broken. He also found that there is a slow leak over the transmission. He said that while he can fix the switch, it will cost $92 and even so, the transmission will die eventually anyway due to the leak. We'd be lucky to get another year out of it. He did some tests, explained the noises it made and our options. Well, we need our washer, so we went with fixing the switch and hoping that we get another year out of it. I wrote Angel a check for $80, as he was so nice as to drop the price a bit, and had to leave for work. That was Thursday. On Saturday, the washer really did die. The transmission we had hoped would last another year did not have the same plan. So, we called Angel. He offered to send our check back if we could return the part and just pay the service fee of $30!!! Are you serious? This man really IS an angel!!! Not only that, but he offered to help us find a new washer for a seriously discounted price! We now have a brand new washer and it cost less than half of what it should thanks to the efforts of Angel at Tikal Appliance Repair. For as long as he is in business, I will never go anywhere else. Seriously my friends. Look this guy up if you ever have any problems with your washer, heater, stove, you name it! If it is an appliance, he can help and save you money doing it too!!! read more

Very professional and kind. They did a great job and was quick and prepared. Would definitely use again

We used Tikal once before and we were happy with the quick response and service. Now, our guest at our vacation home was having more problems with the same washer. He ran it through one time, told me he could find nothing wrong with it, billed me and left. Our guest continued to have the same problem but this time called me on the weekend. Since Tikal was not available I swapped my washer with the failing one, a 7 hour drive for us. In the process, we found a large amount of rubber dust on the floor under the washer. It was the main belt. The spoke with him again today and he was not interested in my feedback. read more

Tikal Appliance repairman was very pleasant and efficient in fixing our dryer; as well as trouble shooting and rectifying possible hazards or hinderances in the running our dryer, for the future. Awesome! read more

Very glad I called Tikal Appliance repair. My dishwasher wasn't working and despite me and my wife's best efforts we couldn't figure it out. He showed up on time, ready to work. In about 15 minutes he diagnosed the problem as a bum motor and said he might have a used one he could use rather than purchasing an expensive new one. Indeed he had one and gave us a very reasonable quote and came back to replace the motor. Upon closer inspection he noticed there were pieces of something stuck in the motor. He removed the items and the dishwasher worked like a champ. He then cut the fee down by half. He could have easily just replaced the motor and charged the full amount but he went the honest route. I would give no hesitation recommending Tikal to anyone who needs an appliance repaired. He was fast, friendly, courteous, honest, and fair. I wish there were more guys like him out there! read more

Angel fixed our troublesome dishwasher and saved us money. He was responsive, on time and personable. I'll call Tikal first whenever my appliances break down. read more

I am a repeat customer. Angel is so nice and knowledgeable. He is very professional and reasonably priced. When I needed work done at my new house I called him straight away and he was here within the hour. He got our dishwasher up and running in no time. I highly recommend him. read more

Really glad I contacted this service, and it was thanks to his high Yelp ratings that he got the call. Let me tell you, he deserves every star! Right after I moved here, I had problems with my refrigerator. He came the same day, fixed the problem, and was out of there without a fuss. He came back a week or so later to set up my other refrigerator. A month or so later, he helped with my washer/dryer. Always easy to reach, always quick to come out, and gets the job done! read more

I am stunned! I called about 10 this morning to see if I could schedule a repair of my dryer, and Angel said he'd be here by 11! He was, and he knew my dryer, diagnosed the problem, and had a part on hand! My granddaughter was drying her clothes shortly after 11...! Amazing! And he is not only knowledgeable, he's very personable. I could not be happier! read more

Absolutely fantastic! Angel runs a professional and friendly business. He promptly responded to my request for service. He was very punctual, knowledgeable, and prepared. He was able to diagnose my problem quickly and even had the required replacement part on hand. My appliance was up and running in less than an hour, and it has worked perfectly ever since. Not only do I have complete confidence in Tikal's service, but Angel is a remarkable person whom I would gladly welcome into my home again. read more

Lastnight at 9pm our stove top gas range started clicking on it's own. Then started flaming & sparking! It was frightful. Fire Dept came out and said we did the right thing turning off gas & unplugging outlet.Thankfully a great friend gave my Tikals info. I called at 8am Tues (after Memorial day Monday) I spoke with Angel who said he could come out between 9-11. He was here at 855am. Calm, awesome and collected he informed us, calmed our nerves and got us running with gas to continue to cook until ordered part arrives. What a pleasure! I am at ease and super grateful for Tikal "Angel" repair Co. read more

Very nice ownr. I had broken one of the veggie trays and wanted to order one. He gave me one for free. Cant't beat that.

Angel (owner/technician) arrived on time for a next day appointment, was friendly and professional. He checked out our dishwasher for standing water and explained the difference between dishwasher models and that this was a normal occurence for ours. He also explained what would be out of the ordinary to call a repair man for and how to do our own maintenance on the dishwasher. Since there wasn't anything wrong with the dishwasher the checkout was free of charge. He then checked out our dryer due to a rubbing noise while drying. It turns out a dryer sheet had got sucked past the lint trap and into the blower. He had the machine apart and cleaned up in less than 20 minutes, all the while showing me how he did it and answering all of my questions. He also showed me how to maintenance the dryer and washing machine on my own. He only charged me for the dryer repair after spending about an hour at the house. I highly recommend Tikal Appliance Repair, their technicians are prompt, professional, courteous, and helpful, and their prices are great! read more

I called Angel on Monday morning regarding my dryer. He was able to look at the dryer the same day. He was also able to get the parts needed to fix it quickly and had it working again by Tuesday (the next day! not a week later). His prices are reasonable, I would definitely recommend his services. read more

Being a women you never know if you can trust the repair man. Angel was honest and awesome! I would recommend him anytime!

I'd give Angel 6 stars if that was possible. He's repaired several of my appliances and always does a great job. He is polite, honest, professional and reasonably priced. I highly recommend him! read more

Trust me...look no further. This is your repair company. Angel will give it to you straight and way less than any other repairman. We have called him for multiple washer, dryer and refridge issues. We recommend him to all our friends. He has saved us hundreds of dollars. He has throwback values of days gone by. A breath of fresh air. Just do it! read more
