GE Appliance Repair
We repair GE appliances in your own home, across Des Plaines and the suburbs around it. What GE actually manufactures is set out below, taken from the current range rather than from a generic list, and it matches what our technicians are equipped and trained to service.
Why the make changes the repair
GE is known for profile and Cafe series kitchens, French door refrigeration and reliable laundry. Engineering decisions like those determine how an appliance eventually fails, and therefore how it has to be tested. Working through parts in order of price arrives at the right answer eventually, by elimination, and the elimination appears on the customer invoice. We would rather read the stored error history and take a measurement.
Parts and warranty
Manufacturer GE parts are used wherever they are still available. Where one has been discontinued, which happens on older and imported models, we tell you plainly that a high quality equivalent is the better or the only option, and the part number goes on your invoice either way. Every repair carries 30 days on our labor together with the manufacturer warranty on anything we install.
Before you book
Track down the model number first if you can. On GE appliances it is usually on the door frame, behind the kick plate, inside a drawer runner or on the rear panel, depending on which appliance it is. If the plate is hard to read, send us a photograph when you book and we will read it for you. With the model confirmed, the parts that most often fail on your exact unit travel out with the technician, and that is the reason most of these appointments finish in one visit.
Where GE work comes up most
In-home GE refrigerator / freezer, oven / range, dishwasher, washer, dryer repair, with same day and next day appointments, one flat price agreed before the work starts, and no weekend surcharge.

The model number is what tells us which parts to load, so it is worth a minute finding it before you call.

Recurring GE problems
Patterns we have learned from returning to this make over the years. Recognizing one of them usually shortens the diagnostics considerably.
French door refrigerator warm in the fresh food side
The evaporator fan or the defrost heater. GE units log their own error history, which we read before opening anything up.
Dishwasher not draining
The drain pump or the check valve. GE sumps are accessible from inside the tub, so this rarely means pulling the machine out.
Range oven not heating on bake
Element on electric models, igniter on gas. The igniter is tested by current draw rather than by how brightly it glows.

GE repair questions
Do you repair the whole GE range?
We service the full GE line set out on this page, meaning french door, side by side and top freezer refrigerators, gas and electric ranges, wall ovens and advantium ovens, dishwashers and the rest of it. Tell us the model when you book and the parts most likely to be needed leave with the van.
Do you install genuine GE parts?
Yes, wherever they are available. Where a manufacturer part has been discontinued we will tell you plainly that a high quality equivalent is the better or the only option, and the part number goes on your invoice either way.
How long does a GE repair take?
Diagnostics run thirty to forty five minutes, and roughly three quarters of repairs are finished during that same visit because the parts that fail most often ride on the van. Anything that has to be ordered is normally back within a few business days.
Where is the model number on a GE appliance?
Depending on the appliance it is on the door frame, behind the kick plate, inside a drawer runner or on the rear panel. Send us a photograph of the rating plate when you book and we will read it for you.

Tell us the model when you book and the parts that fail most often on that unit leave with the van. It is the reason so many of these appointments end the same afternoon.
