Our Appliance Repair Services in Newton
Refrigerator Repair and Freezer Repair
The refrigerator acts as the central hub of the modern kitchen and a breakdown here is often the most urgent issue a homeowner faces. A malfunctioning fridge risks food spoilage and disrupts meal planning for the entire family. We understand that temperature consistency is vital for food safety and storage. Our technicians analyze the complete cooling system to identify whether the issue lies with the sealed system, air flow regulation, or electronic controls. We work on standard configurations as well as premium built in models often found in renovated kitchens across Newton Highlands and Chestnut Hill.
Common problems we fix:
- Refrigerator is running but not cooling properly
- Freezer section is cold but the fresh food compartment is warm
- Excessive frost buildup on the back wall of the freezer
- Water leaking onto the floor or inside the crisper drawers
- Ice maker is not producing ice or dispenses hollow cubes
- Loud humming or clicking noises coming from the compressor area
- Door gaskets are torn or not sealing tightly
- Digital displays or control boards are unresponsive
How we approach the repair
Our diagnostic process begins with testing the major components that regulate the cooling cycle. We inspect the condenser coils for debris blockage which is a common cause of overheating and poor cooling. We test the evaporator fan motor and the condenser fan motor to ensure proper air circulation. For defrost issues we check the heater, thermostat, and timer to ensure the unit melts frost accumulation as intended. By isolating the specific failure point we can replace only the necessary parts to restore correct temperatures. We prioritize getting your unit back to safe operating conditions quickly.
Washing Machine Repair
A broken washing machine causes laundry to pile up instantly and creates a significant bottleneck for any household. Modern washers rely on a complex interaction between sensors, control boards, and mechanical drive systems. When one link in that chain fails the machine may refuse to start, fill, or spin. We service both top loading and front loading models. We are familiar with the specific challenges of second floor laundry setups often found in Newton condos where vibration control and leak prevention are critical concerns.
Common problems we fix:
- Washer fills with water but does not agitate or spin
- Machine vibrates excessively or walks across the room
- Water remains in the drum after the cycle ends
- Washer does not fill with water or fills too slowly
- Loud banging or grinding noises during the spin cycle
- Error codes flashing on the digital display
- Door boot seal is moldy or leaking water
- Lid switch or door lock mechanism is broken
How we approach the repair
We start by verifying the error codes if available and then proceed to manual testing of the components. For drainage issues we inspect the drain pump and hoses for obstructions like coins or socks. If a machine fails to spin we check the lid switch, drive belt, motor coupling, or motor control board. On front loaders we examine the shock absorbers and suspension springs if vibration is the primary complaint. Our goal is to ensure the machine cleans clothes effectively while operating safely and quietly.
Dryer Repair Gas and Electric
A dryer that fails to heat or tumble turns a simple chore into a waiting game. We service both gas and electric dryers throughout Newton and the nearby areas. While electric dryers are common in many condos and newer developments gas dryers are frequently found in the older housing stock in villages like Newtonville and Nonantum. Safety is our primary concern when dealing with dryers due to the high heat and potential for lint accumulation. We ensure every repair addresses not just the immediate symptom but also the safe operation of the unit.
Common problems we fix:
- Dryer runs but does not produce any heat
- Clothes take multiple cycles to dry completely
- Drum does not tumble even though the motor is running
- Loud squealing or thumping noises during operation
- Dryer gets too hot and damages clothing
- Unit will not start when the start button is pushed
- Timer does not advance through the cycle
- Burning smell coming from the appliance
How we approach the repair
For heating issues we test the heating element in electric units and the igniter and gas valve coils in gas units. We also check the thermal fuse which often blows as a safety measure when vents are clogged. If the unit is noisy we inspect the drum rollers, idler pulley, and blower wheel for wear and tear. We verify that the venting system from the back of the dryer is clear of immediate obstructions to ensure proper airflow which is essential for efficiency and fire prevention.
Dishwasher Repair
A dishwasher saves time and water but when it fails it leaves homeowners with a sink full of dirty dishes. This appliance combines water, heat, and electricity which requires careful troubleshooting to prevent leaks and electrical shorts. In the hard water conditions sometimes found in local plumbing systems mineral buildup can affect cleaning performance over time. We work on all styles of dishwashers including integrated panel ready models that blend into cabinetry.
Common problems we fix:
- Dishes come out dirty or covered in residue
- Dishwasher does not drain and water pools at the bottom
- Water leaking from the bottom of the door
- Soap dispenser door does not open during the cycle
- Buttons on the control panel do not respond
- Cycle runs for too long or never completes
- Strange grinding noises during the wash cycle
- Unit does not fill with water
How we approach the repair
We examine the inlet valve to ensure water is entering the unit correctly and check the circulation pump to verify water pressure is sufficient for cleaning. For drainage problems we inspect the drain hose and check valve for clogs. If the unit is leaking we check the door gasket and pump seals. We also assess the spray arms to ensure they rotate freely and are not clogged with food debris. Our technicians aim to restore the cleaning power and efficiency of your dishwasher.
Oven Range and Cooktop Repair
Cooking appliances are the heart of family gatherings and daily meals. Whether you have a gas range in an older Newton Centre home or a sleek electric cooktop in a modern kitchen we have the skills to address performance issues. Temperature accuracy is critical for baking and cooking results. We handle repairs for wall ovens, slide in ranges, and separate cooktops. We treat gas connections with extreme caution and verify all electrical connections are secure.
Common problems we fix:
- Oven does not reach the set temperature
- Gas burner clicks continuously but does not light
- Electric burner element does not heat up
- Oven door is stuck locked after a cleaning cycle
- Baking is uneven with burnt or undercooked spots
- Control board displays error codes
- Interior light does not work
- Glass cooktop is cracked or controls are broken
How we approach the repair
For temperature issues we test the oven sensor and the control board calibration. On electric ranges we inspect the bake and broil elements for physical damage or continuity breaks. For gas units we check the igniters and verify gas flow to the burners. We also examine door hinges and seals to ensure heat stays inside the oven cavity where it belongs. We focus on restoring precise temperature control and safe operation.
Microwave Repair
Microwaves are often dismissed as disposable but high quality built in units and over the range models are worth repairing. These units are often matched to the rest of the kitchen suite and replacing them can be difficult due to sizing constraints. We repair countertop units, drawer style microwaves, and combination convection units. Safety is paramount as microwaves store high voltage electricity even when unplugged.
Common problems we fix:
- Microwave runs but does not heat food
- Turntable plate does not rotate
- Touchpad controls are unresponsive or intermittent
- Sparks or arcing visible inside the cooking chamber
- Exhaust fan does not work on over the range models
- Door switch prevents the unit from starting
How we approach the repair
We test the magnetron, high voltage capacitor, and diode which are the core components responsible for heating. We also check the door interlock switches which are a frequent cause of units appearing dead or blowing fuses. We verify the condition of the wave guide cover to prevent arcing. Our technicians handle these high voltage components with the necessary safety protocols to protect your home and the appliance.
Ice Maker Repair
A broken ice maker is a significant inconvenience especially during the warmer months or when entertaining guests. Ice makers can be standalone units or integrated into the refrigerator door. Issues here often involve water supply problems or mechanical failures in the harvest cycle. We service ice machines found in residential kitchens and wet bars throughout Newton.
Common problems we fix:
- Ice maker stopped producing ice entirely
- Ice cubes are small or hollow
- Ice clumps together in the bin
- Water leaks into the ice bin causing a solid block
- Dispenser does not release ice
- Ice tastes or smells bad
How we approach the repair
We check the water inlet valve and the water line for proper pressure and flow. We inspect the mold thermostat to ensure it reaches the correct temperature to trigger the harvest cycle. We also examine the motor module and the bail arm to ensure the machine knows when the bin is full. We ensure the entire ice production cycle functions smoothly from filling to ejecting.
Appliance Brands We Service
Modern homes contain a diverse mix of appliance brands each with its own engineering philosophy and common failure points. Our technicians maintain a broad knowledge base that covers the major manufacturers found in US homes. We understand that a German engineered dishwasher requires a different troubleshooting approach than an American made dryer. We carry the necessary tools and diagnostic equipment to service a wide variety of makes and models effectively.
Whirlpool Family of Brands
We frequently service the Whirlpool family which includes Maytag, KitchenAid, Amana, and JennAir. These are very common in Newton homes. We are familiar with their direct drive washer systems, modular ice makers, and electronic control schemes. Whether you have a robust Maytag washer or a premium KitchenAid refrigerator we can identify the specific parts needed for a durable repair.
Asian and American Tech Brands
Brands like Samsung, LG, and GE have introduced advanced electronics and smart features into the kitchen and laundry room. We are skilled in navigating the digital error codes and complex sensor networks found in these units. From LG linear compressors to Samsung moisture sensors and GE control boards we stay updated on the technical requirements for these popular appliances.
European and Premium Brands
We also provide service for European brands such as Bosch, Thermador, Electrolux, and Miele. These units often feature specialized engineering designed for quiet operation and efficiency. We understand the specific water inlet systems on Bosch dishwashers and the precision temperature controls on Thermador ranges. We handle these high value appliances with the attention to detail they require.
Legacy Brands
Many homes still rely on durable units from Kenmore and Frigidaire. We have extensive experience with these legacy brands that have been workhorses in American homes for decades. We can often extend the life of these older machines by replacing worn mechanical parts like belts, pumps, and igniters allowing you to keep a reliable unit running longer.
Why Newton Homeowners Choose Appliance Repair Pros
Deep Local Focus in Newton
We are not a national call center. We operate locally and understand the specific needs of our community. We know the traffic patterns on Route 9 and the Mass Pike which helps us schedule realistic arrival windows. We are familiar with the unique logistics of parking and accessing homes in dense areas like Newton Corner versus the more spread out lots in Newton Lower Falls. This local familiarity translates to better communication and smoother service visits.
Meticulous Diagnostics Not Guesswork
We believe in finding the root cause of the problem rather than just swapping parts until something works. Our technicians use multimeters, pressure gauges, and technical schematics to verify failures. For example if a dryer is not heating we check the venting airflow before just changing the fuse because a clogged vent will just blow the new fuse again. This methodical approach saves time and ensures the repair lasts.
Respect for Your Home
Inviting a service technician into your home requires trust. We treat your property with care. We use protective mats for tools and wear shoe covers to protect your floors. We are mindful of your space whether we are working in a tight condo kitchen or a finished basement laundry room. We clean up our work area after the repair is complete so you are not left with a mess.
Skilled with Modern Electronics
Appliances have evolved from purely mechanical devices to sophisticated machines with computer boards and Wi-Fi connectivity. We stay current with these changes. We are comfortable diagnosing logic board failures, sensor errors, and communication issues between components. We bridge the gap between traditional mechanical repair and modern electronic troubleshooting.
Dependable Scheduling
We know your time is valuable. We strive to offer appointment slots that work for your schedule and we communicate clearly about our arrival. We do not leave you waiting all day without updates. When you book a service with us we commit to being there and getting the job done efficiently so you can return to your normal routine.

Professional Repair vs DIY Repairs
With so many tutorial videos available online it is tempting for homeowners to attempt appliance repairs themselves. However modern appliances involve complex electrical systems, high voltage capacitors, gas lines, and water connections that present real safety risks. A simple mistake with a multimeter or a misinterpretation of a wiring diagram can lead to personal injury or permanent damage to the appliance’s control board. For example, microwaves retain lethal electrical charges even after being unplugged and gas dryers require precise leak checking after any service.
Beyond safety there is the risk of misdiagnosis. It is common for DIYers to replace a part that looks broken only to find the machine still does not work because the root cause was elsewhere. Replacing a control board when the issue was actually a loose wire or a bad sensor is a costly error. Additionally, incorrect reassembly can lead to water leaks that damage flooring or cabinetry which ends up costing far more than a professional service call. Our technicians have the experience to identify the problem correctly the first time and the proper tools to execute the repair safely. We ensure that clamps are tight, seals are seated, and electrical grounds are secure giving you peace of mind that the appliance is safe to use.
