When a refrigerator stops cooling, a washer won't drain, or an oven won't hold temperature, you need someone who can diagnose the actual problem — not just swap parts until something works. Appliance Experts 365 provides licensed, insured appliance repair across Seattle, Bellevue, Tacoma, and the wider Puget Sound region, covering refrigerators, freezers, built-in refrigerators, ice makers, wine coolers, washers, dryers, dishwashers, ovens, ranges, cooktops, range hoods, and warming drawers.

We work on most major residential appliance brands, and our technicians hold EPA Section 608 certification for refrigerant handling — required for any repair involving Freon or other refrigerants. Every repair starts with a real diagnosis, followed by a written quote before any work begins, and closes with a warranty on parts and labor. With over 10 years of hands-on repair experience, we've seen most of what can go wrong with a residential appliance, and we fix it the first time whenever we can.

## Appliances We Repair

### Refrigerators, Freezers & Wine Coolers

We repair standard, side-by-side, French-door, and built-in refrigerators, along with standalone and built-in freezers, undercounter ice makers, and wine coolers. Most calls trace back to a handful of root causes: a struggling compressor or condenser fan, a failing thermistor or defrost system, a worn door gasket, or a water-inlet valve that's stopped feeding the ice maker. We diagnose the actual fault before recommending a fix, on both freestanding units and cabinetry-integrated built-in models.

- Refrigerator & built-in refrigerator repair
- Freezer repair, including defrost & frost buildup
- Ice maker diagnosis & repair
- Wine cooler temperature calibration
- Door seal, gasket & thermostat replacement
- Fan motor & condenser coil service

### Washers & Dryers

Top-load, front-load, and stacked washer/dryer units tend to fail at the same handful of points: water-inlet valves, drain pumps, door seals, belts, heating elements, and control boards. We work on gas and electric dryers and diagnose everything from a washer that won't drain to a dryer that runs but never actually dries a load.

- Washer leaks, drainage & fill issues
- Washer not agitating, spinning or washing properly
- Dryer not heating or not spinning
- Gas & electric dryer repair
- Error code diagnosis on digital control panels

### Dishwashers

Dishwasher calls are almost always about water: it's leaking somewhere it shouldn't, it isn't filling, or it isn't draining. We check inlet valves, drain pumps and hoses, spray arms, and control boards to find the actual cause rather than guessing at parts.

- Leaking water diagnosis & repair
- Not draining / not filling with water
- Spray arm & filter service
- Control board & cycle diagnostics

### Ranges, Ovens, Cooktops, Range Hoods & Warming Drawers

Gas and electric ranges, wall ovens, cooktops, range hoods, and warming drawers each have their own common failure points — igniters and gas valves on ranges and cooktops, heating elements and temperature sensors in ovens, motors and filters in range hoods. We treat gas-related symptoms, like a burner that won't spark or a smell of gas, as urgent.

- Range & oven not heating, or heating unevenly
- Burner won't ignite, sparks continuously, or flame too high/low
- Cooktop glass, controls & ignition repair
- Range hood fan & motor service
- Warming drawer heating element replacement
- Error code diagnosis on digital ranges & ovens

### Refrigerant & Freon Leak Repair

When a refrigerator, freezer, or wine cooler runs constantly but never gets cold, a refrigerant leak is a common cause. Handling refrigerant legally requires EPA Section 608 certification, which our technicians hold. We locate the leak, repair or replace the affected component, and recover and recharge the system to the correct specification.

- EPA Section 608 certified refrigerant handling
- Leak detection on sealed refrigeration systems
- Refrigerant (Freon) recovery & recharge
- Compressor & sealed-system diagnostics

## Common Appliance Problems We Fix

- **Refrigerator & Freezer Not Cooling** -- The fridge feels warm, the freezer isn't holding temperature, or the unit runs constantly without ever reaching set point. Usually the cause is a failing condenser or evaporator fan, a struggling compressor, or a defrost system that isn't cycling correctly. We test each component in order rather than replacing parts on a guess.
- **Ice Maker Not Working** -- No ice, slow ice production, or ice that comes out hollow or clumped together. The most common causes are a blocked or failing water-inlet valve, a frozen fill tube, or a worn-out harvest mechanism. We check the water supply and the ice maker module before replacing anything.
- **Door Won't Seal or Frost Is Building Up** -- A refrigerator or freezer door that won't close tightly lets warm air in, driving up frost buildup and energy use. We check the door gasket and hinge alignment, and — if frost is excessive — the defrost heater and thermostat, common culprits behind a frost-free freezer that isn't.
- **Wine Cooler Won't Hold Temperature** -- Temperature drift, over-freezing, or a unit that just isn't cooling are the most common wine cooler complaints. A failing thermistor or a struggling compressor is usually to blame. We calibrate and repair to protect what's inside.
- **Washer Leaking, Not Draining or Not Filling** -- Water on the floor, a tub that won't drain, or a washer that never fills point to a failing door or tub seal, a clogged or broken drain pump, or a faulty water-inlet valve. We trace the water path to find exactly where it's failing.
- **Washer Won't Agitate, Won't Wash, or Shows an Error Code** -- A washer that fills and drains but won't agitate or complete a wash cycle often has a worn drive component or a control board issue. Error codes on the display point us to the likely subsystem before we open the cabinet.
- **Dryer Not Heating or Not Spinning** -- Clothes coming out barely warm, taking multiple cycles to dry, or a drum that won't turn are classic signs of a failed heating element, a worn belt, or a bad thermal fuse. We also check the exhaust vent, since restricted airflow mimics a heating problem.
- **Dryer Unresponsive or Showing Error Codes** -- A dryer that won't turn on, has unresponsive controls, or displays an error code usually points to the control board, door switch, or a wiring issue. We read the code, test the related components, and confirm the fix before closing it up.
- **Dishwasher Leaking, Not Draining or Not Filling** -- Puddles under the dishwasher, standing water at the end of a cycle, or a wash that never starts because the tub won't fill are usually traced to a door seal, a clogged drain path, or a faulty water-inlet valve.
- **Oven Not Heating, Heating Unevenly, or Showing Error Codes** -- An oven that won't heat, won't broil, takes too long to preheat, cooks unevenly, or trips a breaker can point to a failed heating element, a bad temperature sensor, or a control board fault. We verify actual cavity temperature against the display rather than trusting the readout.
- **Range or Cooktop Won't Ignite, Sparks Continuously, or Smells Like Gas** -- A burner that clicks but won't light, a burner that keeps sparking after it's lit, or any smell of gas needs prompt attention. We check the igniter, burner cap alignment, and gas valve — and treat a gas odor as a safety issue first, repair second.
- **Range Hood Fan Not Working or Warming Drawer Not Heating** -- A range hood fan that won't start or has become noisy is usually a motor or switch issue restricting kitchen ventilation. A warming drawer that won't heat is almost always the heating element or its thermostat. Both are typically same-visit repairs.

## Transparent Pricing

We believe pricing should be easy to understand before you agree to anything — no confusing fee schedules, no vague estimates.

Before a technician is dispatched, we quote a diagnostic fee so you know the cost of the visit up front. If you approve the repair, that fee is credited toward the total — you're never charged for the same visit twice.

Once the technician has diagnosed the problem, you receive a written quote covering parts and labor before any repair work begins. The price you approve is the price you pay; there are no hidden charges or surprise add-ons afterward.

If a repair isn't the smart financial move — for example, when the cost approaches the price of a new appliance — we'll say so plainly. Our goal is an honest recommendation, not just a completed work order.

## Repair or Replace?

- **When Repair Makes Sense** -- Most appliance problems — a failed valve, a worn belt, a bad control board, a refrigerant leak — are fixable, and repair is almost always less expensive than replacement, especially for appliances under 8-10 years old.
- **The Sustainable Choice** -- Repairing an appliance instead of replacing it keeps a large, resource-intensive product out of the landfill and avoids the cost and footprint of manufacturing a new one. When a fix is realistic, it's usually the better choice for your budget and the environment.
- **When We'll Recommend Replacement** -- If an appliance is old enough that parts are hard to source, or the repair cost is close to the price of a new unit, we'll tell you honestly rather than performing a repair that doesn't make financial sense. Our goal is the right long-term outcome for you, not just a completed job.

## Our Repair Process

1. **Book** -- Call or text +1 (206) 427-7323 and tell us the appliance, the symptom, and your location. We'll schedule a technician and let you know what to expect before they arrive.
2. **Diagnose** -- A licensed technician inspects the appliance and tests the components most likely to be causing the symptom you're seeing, rather than guessing at parts. Most issues are identified on this first visit.
3. **Quote** -- Once we know what's wrong, you get a straightforward quote before any repair work begins. The diagnostic fee is credited toward the repair if you approve it — there's never a surprise bill.
4. **Repair** -- With your approval, we complete the repair using the parts your appliance needs. Most repairs are finished in a single visit.
5. **Warranty** -- Every repair is backed by a warranty on both parts and labor. We test the appliance before we leave to confirm it's working the way it should.

## Preventive Care Tips

- **Refrigerators & Freezers**: Vacuum the condenser coils every six months and wipe down door gaskets monthly. Dust-clogged coils make the compressor work harder and shorten its life; a dirty gasket lets warm air sneak in.
- **Wine Coolers**: Check the temperature display weekly — drift is often the first sign of a failing thermistor. Keep the vents clear of dust so the cooling system doesn't have to work harder than it needs to.
- **Washers**: Leave the door or lid open between loads to prevent mold and odor buildup, and wipe out the detergent drawer monthly. Check supply hoses yearly for cracking or bulging.
- **Dryers**: Clean the lint trap after every load, and have the exhaust vent professionally cleaned once a year. A blocked vent is both a fire risk and the most common cause of a dryer that runs but won't dry clothes.
- **Dishwashers**: Remove and rinse the filter weekly to prevent odors and drainage problems, and run an empty hot cycle with a dishwasher cleaner monthly to keep spray arms and hoses clear.
- **Ranges & Cooktops**: Wipe up spills once the surface has cooled, before they bake on. Keep burner caps and ports clear of debris — a misaligned or clogged cap is the most common cause of uneven flame and ignition trouble.
- **Ovens**: Keep the door seal clean so heat doesn't escape during baking. Use the self-clean cycle sparingly — the high heat stresses the door lock and control board more than normal use does.
- **Range Hoods**: Clean or replace the grease filter regularly. A clogged filter cuts ventilation performance and is a preventable fire risk over time.
