I won't embarrass the authorized John Deere dealer in Redding by telling you how much it was going to cost me to diagnose and then fix my D140 lawn tractor that would not start. I replaced the ignition switch and starter solenoid myself and that worked for a while then it wouldn't start again. They offered to test them, but didn't do so when I brought the parts in, but did give me a new switch. It cost me $75 for Tim's Mobile Repair to come to my house, which included 30-minutes of repair time, and that's all it took for him to fix the problem. A little clip on a plug that was part of the wiring harness broke. There is no doubt in my mind that I saved somewhere between $200 to $400 on this simple repair. Next time I'll know what to look out for. And one more thing, the dealer told me they couldn't even get around to looking at my D140 for at least 2-weeks. read more

Just had a lovely call with Mary who helps coordinate for Tim to come out on jobs. She was able to actually try and see if she could fit me in last minute, but also discuss and help give me some things to do to self diagnose whether our broken dishwasher was a dud or not so we didn't waste time or money. All around felt like a very kind experience with someone very down to earth and wanting to help. Ended up not needing them, but was impressed with their service. read more

Contacted them to diagnose a dishwasher in a house we had just purchased. The person on the phone walked me through a couple of troubleshooting steps. When those failed, I was asked to provide the serial number so she could determine the age of the machine. I called back and gave her the info, never heard back! I wound up tracing it myself. Ended up buying a new dishwasher and found a much more reliable company to do the installation. read more

Great team and very helpful. My mom's dryer stopped spinning and Tim came over and got it fixed and I cannot thank them enough

This guy knows his stuff. I had already taken clothes dryer apart but was having trouble diagnosing issue. Rather than charge me, he walked me through diagnosis and repair over the phone so I could do it myself. These days, you just don't find customer service like that. Boom! Ordered the part, took only two days from Amazon, put it in, enjoyed dry clothes two days later. In contrast, another local company told me they would have to charge me minimum $80 to re assemble dryer and then disassemble to the point I was already at. WHAT?? Tim's Mobile Repair --doing things right for the Northstate! read more

Fast response time getting an appointment schedule receptionist (Tim's Wife) was very knowledgeable and courtesy. Where things don't set well with me is Tim arrived at 10:16 am and was gone by 10:30 am walked out the door with $65.00 I feel it was unethical and looking back I shouldn't have paid him a dime. He walked Into our kitchen where we were having issues with our freezer I had told his wife basically everything that was going on and she said he would come and be able to check the volts and making sure it's running correctly. Boy did they under delivery. Tim didn't even open up the back of the refrigerator or freezer opens the doors ask me what I've noticed and goes on to tell me LG and Samsung or Junk stay away from them and go non -Digital opens the doors both freeze and refrigerator and continues to tell me that they aren't working properly go figure hints why I called you. Looks up on his iPad the model time and tells me the type of system it has. Never once opens the panel or looks and the rear. Only open the doors and put his hand in to do a feel test. This took a good 5 mins and to make the conversation longer tells me about his beliefs on politics and his son graduating from Berkeley. Total scam! Paid $65.00 only to be told what I already know my freeze isn't working! read more

Tim is a rare find! He is so personable, fair, honest and fast service too. Our not quite 2 year old refrigerator started chirping, and the motor and the lights were going on and off. When calling the store where we bought it, they said it would be a $160 service fee to come out, plus I would have to wait almost a week for service! My husband then called Tim's, talked to Tim's wife, who suggested we unplug the fridge for an hour. That did the trick. The next day, however, the chirping and motor problems started up again. Tim came right out, and diagnosed the problem- a faulty mother board. The part was ordered, arrived quickly, and Tim again came right out and replaced the part. $75 service charge. Too bad we hadn't purchased an extended warranty, but would most likely still be waiting for service. Calling Tim's turned out to be a better option, given our situation. read more

Kind of disappointed! He arrived, I told him what had happened, pulled fringe out stuck screw driver in back , said he's not sure what the problem is and I should see if I have a warranty! And then says it will be 65.00. read more

Update Review: July 31, 2015 So my washing machine stopped working--it would just buzz. I called Tim's Mobile repair again. Tim came right out again---same day! He had a good idea of what was going on over the phone, just to give me an idea of what we'd be looking at. Turned out to be a baby sock stuck in the water pump. It was stuck real good too! He was able to remove it without ruining the water pump which is a bonus! I just wanted to update my review because we have used Tim twice now and he has been fast, courteous, knowledgeable, and professional each time. read more

The office staff was incredible. Tim was wonderful. The results were excellent. I would never recommend anyone else.

Answered the phone on first call. Wife Meri very knowledgeable. Looked up and ordered the parts I needed and did fast efficient repair. Highly recommend read more

We use Tim's Mobile Repair for all our yard tractors, mowers, chipper shredders. We call Tim's first for all our repair needs. Often Merrie is able to diagnose the problem and Tim then has the parts for the repair. Sometimes she is able to suggest a solution to try to get us going again. We have found Tim to be very honest. If a repair is not cost effective or parts are no longer available then he suggests that you not repair it . We have never had Tim or Merrie steer us wrong in the last ten years. This business is honest, trustworthy and efficient. We whole heartedly recommend you use them for your repairs. read more

This was the Second time I used Tim at Tim's Mobile Repair. It's Deja Vu all over again. Tim's wife gave me all my options over the phone and spent 12 minutes with me, educating me on what could possibly be the problem ( which I really appreciated!) None of her suggestions worked so I had Tim come out on a Service call. Tim diagnosed the issue in a short amount of time and ordered the needed part. Came back to install it and I saved the expense of a new unit at double the price. Very happy with Tim and Tim's Mobile Repair. read more

Our dryer stopped blowing hot air, we chose Tim because of the reviews here. They told us the 3 possible problems and then ordered the 1 missing part so that he would only have to come up once. His price was SUPER reasonable and he was able to quickly fix the problem (fuse). Very happy with his communication, price & timeliness! Our main complaint with contractors & repair men in Redding is that they rarely call back and then dont always show up. Not Tim! We will definitely keep his number and highly recommend his service! read more

I recently called Tim's for a repair on an older dryer. I wasn't sure if it was worth repair or replacing. I had discussed that with the tech upon him arriving. The tech assured me that my dryer was one of the best and still had many years ahead of it. They are reasonable on pricing, he only charged me the $99 service call, gave me the reason why my dryer wasn't my working properly but couldn't repair it because it was electrical. Easy fix was a new cord and electrical outlet which I was able to do myself. Three other repair businesses quoted me $400-$425 just to come out and diagnose the problem. At prices like that I would have bought a new dryer before I'd even consider paying that kind of money for someone to just look at it and not repair it. Will use Toms again if I ever need an appliance repaired. read more

We had a dishwasher that needed a pump replaced. Tim came in and diagnosed the problem and finished the repair quickly and very reasonably priced. And he's really nice! Great work! read more

I was totally pleased with this company. I found them here online and called for repair of our clothes dryer. Mary answered immediately (no taped message) and made several helpful suggestions of actions we could take ourselves. (amazing!) As we had already tried those measures, she scheduled us for TODAY, and notified Tim what parts he should bring along. Tim arrived on time, courteous, upbeat, knowledgeable, patient. Diagnosed the problem, had the needed part in his truck, and even tightened the door screws as well. Pricing was reasonable, too. I'd gladly recommend them to anyone needing appliance repair! read more

I can't say enough about how nice and accommodating Tim was when fixing my beloved broken refrigerator. He came to my house on short notice and diagnosed the problem immediately. Talking to him he was very knowledgeable and prices were reasonable. I was without a refrigerator for a week while parts were ordered and he came after hours to replace broken fan motor as soon as the part arrived. There are very few appliance repair businesses in this town and I think I found a gem. Thanks again Tim!!! read more

Tim's Mobile Repair - My beautiful fridge is up and running again. No thanks to Sears but a huge thanks to Tim. - Appliances & Repair Near Me - Anderson, California

I have used Tim's Mobile Repair twice since I moved into my house. The first time I needed Tim to convert my dryer from natural gas to LP. He was on time, professional, knowledgeable, and quick. Just a good guy. The second time was after I converted my range from natural gas to LP and wanted to make sure it was done properly since I could smell gas when i turned the burners on. Tim came out same day and was just as awesome. I highly recommend Tim to anyone that has appliance repair needs. read more

My husband is no longer able to repair our two riding lawn mowers, We have acreage that we need to keep mowed. Tim was friendly, on time, assessed the situation and fixed the problems. He did have to go back for parts, but came back when he said he would. What I really liked was that my 16 year old grandson, who will be doing the mowing, was able to watch. We both asked questions and he was so nice explaining everything. We both learned a lot about care and maintenance, especially my grandson. Thank you Tim!! read more

Don't waste your time with Tim's. I've wasted a week and a half waiting for them to show up. They assured us it would be done in a few days. First there were excuses and now no one answers the phone. I would give a minus star if I could. read more

I would not recommend this gentleman to get an estimate for a refrigerator repair. I did that, he showed up, opened the back of the fridge and after a total of about 5 minutes told me he that I needed a new fridge and I owed him $80 for the service call. He didn't even put it back together. Very disappointed. read more

We were having a problem with our water and ice dispenser. I called Tim because the brick and mortar stores were charging $135.00 to come and diagnose the problem and then come back another day to fix it, charging some more. I first spoke with his wife and was immediately impressed, as she seemed to have a lot of knowledge about what the issue might be. Because of the type of refrigerator (Samsung) it was difficult to get the part in the US but she was all over it and after a couple of weeks the part arrived. Tim came out and was great, except the part was wrong due to no fault of Tim or his wife. He told me if I removed the back of the refrigerator and turned off the water at the source before he came that it would save me a little money so I did. When he returned he made the repair, the charge was much smaller than I anticipated and I was quite pleased. Then over this past weekend the dryer stopped blowing hot air. I determined that it was likely the thermal fuse but I'm not handy so I called the office on Monday morning and once again Tim's wife (I want to say her name is Mary but...) seemed to know the likely problem and agreed it was probably the thermal fuse. We scheduled an appointment for Tuesday morning and Tim arrived as scheduled, concurred with the diagnosis, replaced the fuse, and was on his way in about 40 minutes, once again leaving a happy customer. I would recommend Tim's Mobile Repair to anyone who is not able to make repairs themselves, doesn't have a lot of knowledge, and needs someone who is HONEST, RELIABLE, and has reasonable prices. Tim and his wife are just fantastic! read more

I called Tim's Mobile Repair and spoke with a very knowledgeable person on the phone. She asked me some questions about my refrigerator and knew a lot about the model and potential issues. She scheduled an appointment but suggested that I try a specific fix - which worked. I'll be calling them back in the future should the need arise. Good honest people! read more

Scheduled a repair a week out. They were supposed to show up at 10 a.m.. Called me up at 10:30 to reschedule for sometime next week. I got stood up. What a waste of time. read more

Our gas oven quit heating and I was afraid we'd have to buy a new one, but Tim replaced the igniter and it works like a charm. Saved us big bucks. Very nice man and easy to work with. Knows his stuff. read more

Excellent service, both on the phone and in our home! The office staff was friendly and polite. Tim was already in our area, so he came by the same day we called. Our part was available in Sacramento, so we didn't have to wait long. They were back the same week to complete the repair. Kudos to Tim's Mobile Repair for the amazing service!!! read more

Tim's Mobile Repair is our new go-to for appliance repair. Tim is extremely trustworthy, punctual, and does the job completely, with plenty of explanation of what caused the problem and how to avoid it in the future. He truly cares about his customers and we'll go back to him again. He got our dishwasher and dryer up and running in record time. Highly, highly recommend. read more

Tim's wife is really great about advising of things to check out before they come out. The first time he came out, our refrigerator had started working by the time he got there. A couple of weeks later it stopped working again during the power outage. He came out and did a cost effective repair for a total of $70, and did not charge for the service call again. Awesome! I would definitely recommend him. read more

They were very responsive and the repairman arrived the same day. However, he could not find the problem with the machine. He said he would check to see if a new control panel could be ordered, but never heard back from him. Felt like wasted money. read more

My dryer started making horrible noises and struggled with if it was worth it to pay somebody to tell me it was dead. In the end Tim came out a few hours after my call and was able to order parts and have it fixed a few days later. And the cost was so reasonable! My dryer sounds better than it did when I first bought it! They will be my go to repair place everytime . read more

These guys are awesome!!! They helped us troubleshoot over the phone were so patient and informative!! When repairing my washer was beyond my abilities, Tim came out quickly and replaced my transmission for a great price!!! He was fast, neat, and friendly!! If I ever have another appliance problem I am calling them for sure!!!! read more

Our electric range stopped working, and we couldn't find the problem. The friendly lady who answered the phone was able to troubleshoot and give us an estimate on the phone. Turns out, that it makes more sense to just buy a new appliance - but a less ethical business would have sent out a repair-person and charged us for an hour's worth of work, before telling us, that the range is not worth fixing. The next time we need an appliance repaired, we will hire Tim's Mobile Repair! read more

Same day service when my washing machine died. They had both parts in stock that they thought might be causing the issue. One part fixed it up and I was back in business. Friendly service by both the phone rep and the technician. I highly recommend them! Very reasonably priced too. read more

Tim is amazing! While I was out of town, my kitchen range stopped working. I called Tim when I got home, he suggested some possible electrical fixes for the problem, so that I could potentially fix the range for free before I had to pay him for a service call. Those fixes didn't work, he came out the next day and diagnosed the problem in about 5 minutes. Bottom line, I needed a part, he ordered it, it came in a few days later and he had my range fixed in no time, for a fraction of what a new one would have cost. I wouldn't call anyone else! Tim is fast, friendly, efficient and very professional. Definitely recommend! read more

Tim came out the next morning after I found my garage fridge had died and cooked all the food in it. (Really smelly mess ) Luckily, he had the part that was needed and had it up and running within 20-30 minutes. He fee was reasonable and we also discussed the Pepsi commerical fridge that finally died also. Thought it would be too costly to replace thermostat, since it needed a specific brand rather than most fridge used more generic. Did a quick repair and had nice chat with his wife when ordering the service call. Very happy and this was actually the second time I had him for a service call. Would use him again. read more

We just moved up here to Redding a while back and bought a 6 acre place. Didn't really give it much thought about the size until spring came around and found out the grass was everywhere and needed to be cut. I checked out Caigslist and found several riding mowers. I called, and it turned out to be "Tim's Mobile Repair", I wanted to see if they still had the one I was interested in. I talked to his assistant and found out that someone else was interested in the same mower, and to come and check it out before it's sold if I wanted it. I got there as quick as I could, but it was sold 10 min. after I hung up. I Talked to Tim about what I had and he suggested another one they had there, but it needed a few things done before it was ready, and he could ck it out right now. He put a battery in it and did the other things that it needed and he got it running like brand new. The price was right on. I told him I wanted it and needed to go and rent a trailer so I can take it home. He told me " You really don't need to rent one, I'll take it out for you, no charge." you very rarely see that kind of service now days. I have called Tim a couple of times already for other things and Tim is always very knowledgeable in everything I've needed so far, and am Very Happy to know him. I recommend him to everyone I know, he is great to deal with. Awesome to talk to, and has great feedback. Great Customer Service.... Thanks TIM.... read more

had a broken dishwasher and thought it was going to need to be replaced, tim came out and looked at the dishwasher and told us it was not a major problem but a minor easy fix, he fixed it gave us some useful tips and charged us a very reasonable fair price the dishwasher is working now beautifully and would recommend tim's work to anyone read more

This company knows their stuff. I called because my one and a half year-old dishwasher had stopped draining. The friendly secretary proved to also be a fantastic troubleshooter. She asked me many questions about my dishwasher and then gave me two things to try before they came out. She told me to try them and if they didn't work I could call back the next day to schedule an appointment. This lady is like a walking talking appliance encyclopedia. She fixed my problem over the phone. After I tried the two things she suggested, my dishwasher ran like new again. I was amazed, and I am thrilled. She could have very well let the service man come out and charge me for telling me the same things. What a top notch company. They seem to have the customers best interest at heart. I will never call anyone else for appliance repair.I feel they are a very trustworthy company and deserve my utmost loyalty. read more
