POPULAR QUESTIONS

What information does LA Best Appliance require when scheduling a service?

To book an appointment, we need the following details:

  • Your contact information
  • Appliance type, model, and serial number
  • A brief description of the issue
  • Your availability for a service visit
  • Proof of purchase (if the appliance is under warranty)

Why do you need the model and serial numbers?

Providing the model and serial numbers ahead of time allows us to prepare for your service call efficiently. It helps us stock our service vehicle with the most likely replacement parts, increasing the chances of resolving the issue in a single visit.

How does LA Best Appliance schedule service appointments?

You can schedule an appointment online, by phone, or via email. If booked online or through email, a representative will contact you to confirm details. Our team carefully plans technician routes the day before to ensure efficient service. Once scheduled, you’ll receive a four-hour arrival window, and barring unexpected delays, technicians aim to arrive at the start of that timeframe.

If you prefer an early appointment, you may request a “First Call” slot (the first appointment of the day). However, availability is limited, and these slots often book weeks in advance. Additionally, our ability to offer a First Call may depend on your location relative to our service area.

How does LA Best Appliance prepare for service visits?

Our expert team reviews service requests in advance, often identifying potential issues before arriving. This allows us to load our service vehicles with the most common replacement parts. If a necessary part is out of stock, we’ll attempt to special order it before your appointment.

However, until a technician inspects the appliance on-site, an exact diagnosis isn’t possible. Every service begins with a full assessment and an estimate, which must be approved before proceeding. If additional parts are required and a follow-up visit is needed, you will not be charged a second service fee.

What can I expect during a service appointment?

  • Appointment details will be confirmed the day before.
  • You will receive the technician’s name, and they will text you when en route.
  • Our technicians use protective measures such as boot covers, sliders, and floor mats to safeguard your home.
  • Before starting any repair, they will provide an estimate for your approval.
  • Invoices are sent via email after the service. If you prefer a printed copy, let us know.
  • After the appointment, we’ll follow up via text to ensure your satisfaction.

What factors determine the cost of a service appointment?

Our pricing includes a flat-rate service fee that covers the trip and diagnostic assessment. After diagnosis, we’ll provide an upfront estimate for repairs. If you approve the repair, the service fee is credited toward the total repair cost. If you choose not to proceed with the repair, the service fee is non-refundable

What warranty does LA Best Appliance provide?

  • If your appliance is still under the manufacturer’s warranty, repairs will follow their coverage terms.
  • For out-of-warranty repairs, we offer:
    • 60-day warranty on parts
    • 30-day warranty on labor
  • Additionally, our service call fee is valid for 30 days, meaning if we need to return for the same issue within that period, you won’t be charged another service fee.

How much does it cost to send a technician?

Our standard service call fee is $120.00, payable at the time of scheduling. This covers the technician’s visit and diagnosis. If you approve the repair, this fee is applied toward the total repair cost. If you decide not to proceed, the service fee remains non-refundable.

Can I get a repair estimate over the phone?

In some cases, yes. However, pricing varies based on the appliance brand and issue. For complex problems, an accurate estimate can only be provided after an in-person assessment by our technician.

Does the technician bring parts on the first visit?

Our goal is to complete repairs in a single visit whenever possible. Our service vehicles are stocked with commonly needed parts, and our team pre-screens service calls to anticipate necessary components. However, due to factors like part availability and appliance specifics, some repairs may require ordering additional parts.
