When is it time to get my appliance repaired?

The tell tale sign of a malfunctioning appliance is when it is no longer working as it used to. If you notice that your washer is leaking, not spinning, making noise, or if you refrigerator is not cooling, leaking water, water dispenser not filling, the ice maker not making ice, or if your dryer is not heating, overheating, not starting, or if your stove is not heating, not lighting, cooktop is not working. These are just a few common problems that most homeowners will experience during the lifetime of their appliances. They are a sign of a malfunction and should be looked at by an appliance specialist as soon as possible. Neglecting these seemingly minor issues may lead to more expensive repairs in the future.
