Family owned · Serving the Quad Cities within 50 miles

Timing and scheduling

How fast can you get to me?

Short answer

In the Quad Cities core — Rock Island, Moline, East Moline, Davenport, Bettendorf — a morning call very often becomes a same-day appointment. Further out in the 50-mile radius we schedule you into the next run in that direction, usually within a few days.

Why distance changes the answer

We are a small family shop, not a franchise with vans idling in every town. What that buys you is the same person every time and no dispatch centre reselling your job. What it costs is that a town forty miles out gets grouped into a scheduled run rather than covered on demand.

Every community inside the radius has its own page telling you which route it sits on and which towns we cover on the same trip. That is a more honest answer than a blanket "same-day service" promise that quietly does not apply to half the map.

What jumps the queue

A refrigerator that has stopped cooling goes to the front, because every hour costs you food. Anything gas-related goes to the front, because it is a safety issue. Say so when you call — we cannot prioritise what we do not know about.

How to make it faster

Call in the morning rather than at four in the afternoon. Have the model number ready. Describe the symptom precisely — "fills but will not spin" is worth more than "it is broken", because it lets us load the likely part before we set off and finish on the first visit.

Still not sure how this applies to your machine? Call and ask — we would rather answer a question over the phone than have you guess. We cover Rock Island, the Quad Cities and every community within 50 miles.

How long does an appliance repair actually take?

Most repairs are finished inside an hour to ninety minutes, diagnosis included, and more than nine out of ten are completed on the first visit because the part is already on the van. Sealed-system refrigerator work and anything needing an ordered part takes longer.

Can I get same-day appliance repair?

Often, yes — particularly if you call in the morning and you are within about fifteen miles of Rock Island. We do not promise it universally, because a small shop that promises same-day everywhere is a shop that is about to break that promise.

What does appliance repair cost?

A repair breaks into two parts: a diagnostic charge for coming out and finding the actual fault, and then the repair itself, which is quoted before any work starts. You hear the diagnostic figure on the phone before you book, and nothing begins until you say yes.

Should I repair my appliance or replace it?

Rough guide: if the repair costs more than about half what a comparable new machine costs, and the appliance is past two-thirds of its expected life, replacing is usually the better call. Below that, repairing almost always wins on cost and on waste.

Appliance down? Let’s get it fixed.

Same-day service in most cases across the Quad Cities and 50 miles around. Talk to a real technician, not a call center.

Greg was recommended to me and they said if Greg can’t fix it you’ll probably have to buy new. He was prompt, honest about what was wrong, and completely professional. In my 57 years he is the most honest and personable repair man I have ever met.
