  • What types of appliances do you repair?

    At Williston Repair Group, we service a wide variety of household appliances and electronics. From professional dryer repair to fixing stoves, dishwashers, refrigerators, washing machines, TVs, and surround sound systems, our experienced technicians can handle it all.
  • What sets your company apart from other appliance repair companies?

    At Williston Repair Group, our amazing technicians are what truly set us apart!

They receive training directly from manufacturers, earn certifications, and participate in continued education.

  • Will the technician call before coming to my home?

    Yes. Typically, our appliance repair technicians will call you about 30 minutes before they arrive at your property.
  • Do I need to thaw my refrigerator before the technician comes to check the unit?

    This depends on the required refrigerator repair and your specific situation. If you call our team, one of our technicians can help you determine the best steps before we arrive.
  • How do I know if my appliance is worth repairing?

    A good rule of thumb: if the fix costs less than 50% of the price of a new appliance and your unit is under 8-10 years old, repairing is often the better option. Also, whether you need a washer fix or a dryer repair, high-end appliances may be worth repairing even if they're older due to their original value and quality.
  • Can repairing help extend the life of my appliance?

    Absolutely. A proper appliance repair by the professionals at Williston Repair Group can often add years of use to your machine and help you avoid the hassle and expense of replacement.
  • What factors should I consider before deciding to replace?

    When deciding between buying new or scheduling a service like a dryer repair, our team at Williston Repair Group recommends you consider these points:

    • Age of appliance
    • Cost of repair vs. replacement
    • Energy efficiency of a newer model
    • Frequency of past repairs
    • Availability of parts for older models
  • Are there hidden costs when replacing an appliance?

    It often depends on your appliance installers and your home’s specifications, but replacing a unit can certainly come with unexpected expenses, such as:

    • Delivery and installation fees
    • Haul-away fees for your old unit
    • Upgrades to meet current code or compatibility
    • New fittings or venting for certain appliances

    At Williston Repair Group, we believe in completely transparent pricing, so when you hire us for a service, like a refrigerator repair or installation, you always know exactly what to expect.
