Appliance Repair in Richmond

Richmond is one of the oldest settlements in the Ottawa area, founded in 1818 on the Jock River southwest of the city. The village core along McBean Street still has its older homes and churches, and in recent years large new subdivisions have been added on its edges as more families move out to the country while staying within reach of Ottawa.

That blend of old and new shows up in the work. In the older part of the village, appliances tend to be simpler and long-lived, and a worn motor coupling or a thermostat is often all that stops them. In the new subdivisions, appliances are electronic and efficient, and faults come from sensors, drains and boards. We diagnose each properly and quote before any repair.

Getting to Richmond

Richmond is about 35 minutes from downtown Ottawa by Highway 416 or Eagleson Road and Perth Street. Richmond bookings take a morning, afternoon or evening window on weekdays or Sundays, starting as early as 7 am and as late as 9 pm, with Saturdays by arrangement.

Notes for Richmond families

The Jock River runs through Richmond, and some low-lying basements take on water in a wet spring. If a washer, dryer or freezer has been sitting in water, keep it unplugged until it has been inspected. Water in the motor or on the control board can cause a short, and a check costs far less than a replacement.

Questions from Richmond

Do you repair older top-load washers?
Yes. Many older top-loaders are simple machines with affordable parts such as couplers, lid switches and pumps.
My new dryer stops before the clothes are dry. Why?
Moisture sensors can be fooled by fabric softener residue, and a blocked vent can trip the dryer early. We check both and explain what we find.
Can you install a new appliance in a new home?
Yes, for electric appliances. We install, level and test the unit and remove the packaging.
