Big lots, hot afternoons at the north end of the Valley, and appliances that work harder than they do anywhere else in our area.
Chatsworth sits at the hot end of the Valley, up against the hills, and the summer load on refrigeration here is real. Condenser coils fill with dust faster than they do further south, garage refrigerators and freezers run in ambient temperatures they were never rated for, and the second refrigerator in the garage is usually the first thing to fail.
If you keep a freezer in the garage, pulling it out and vacuuming the coils twice a year genuinely extends its life. That is free advice, and it will save you a service call.
Horse property and larger lots at the north end often mean two refrigerators, an outdoor unit, and a laundry setup that runs far more loads than a standard household. Everything wears at a proportional rate, so we tend to look at the whole set rather than just the one thing that stopped.
Plenty of original 1960s and 1970s kitchens are still here, with built-in ovens and cooktops that have been running for decades. Those are usually worth repairing when parts still exist.
No. The service call is free inside our local area, and Chatsworth is inside it. The price of the repair is agreed with you before any work starts.
We are open Sunday from 7:00 to 19:00 and closed Saturday. Sunday is the day most competitors are shut, and it is one of our busiest.
Usually yes in Chatsworth. Call early in the day and the odds are much better.
