Cringila appliance repairs

Cringila sits right on the doorstep of the steelworks, about four kilometres south of Wollongong. It grew up as a migrant housing area for steel and mine workers and was once known as Steeltown, and that history still shows in the streets: modest, well-lived-in homes, a good number of them rentals, and kitchens that have fed big families for decades.

What breaks, and why

A lot of the machines here have years on them, and that is fine, they just need looking after. The washing machine is usually the hardest-worked appliance in the house, and the faults we see most are a clogged drain pump filter, worn drum bearings and a perished door seal. A machine that stops mid-cycle is more often a cheap part than a new washer.

If yours has stopped draining, there is one thing worth trying first. Front-loaders have a small filter behind a flap at the bottom front of the machine. Put a towel and a shallow tray down, unscrew it, and clear out the lint, coins and hair clips that collect there. That single check fixes a fair few of the calls we get. Our not-draining-or-spinning guide covers what to look at next.

Ovens cop a hiding in a house that cooks properly every night. Elements burn out and thermostats drift, and both are straightforward fixes that get the kitchen back before dinner. Older fridges tend to fail on the door seal or the condenser coils, and a fridge that runs constantly yet still feels warm is usually one of those two things.

If you rent and the appliance belongs to the landlord, we quote the repair up front so you or the agent can approve it before we touch anything. A lot of our Cringila work comes through property managers, so that back-and-forth is routine for us.

Around the neighbourhood

Cringila runs into Warrawong, Port Kembla and Berkeley, and we are through all three most weeks, so same-day is often doable.

Cost and booking

The assessment fee is $125, fixed, with a quote before any repair work starts and a warranty on the repair. If the repair runs to more than you want to pay in one go, we take Afterpay. We have been the local family repairer for more than forty years, so the same people who fix your machine this year will still be here the next time something goes.

The quickest way to get us out is to book online, though you can always call 02 4229 3777 instead.

Very happy. I rang for service on Tuesday and a visit was arranged for the next day. The man texted me to say he was on the way and arrived soon after. He was able to tell me what he thought was the problem and an estimate of the cost if he were correct. He was right, had the necessary parts in his truck and fixed our machine straight away. Would recommend.

Julie, Donna and the staff from Wollongong Service Company were so professional in helping and advising me of the options to repair a leaking hose in my dishwasher. They finished the job that was originally diagnosed by another party and actually changed all the hoses in my dishwasher for a little more than the price I was quoted to only change 1 hose by the original party (after paying that party a service call fee initially) and did not charge me any service call fee. I would highly recommend Wollongong Service Company to anyone in need of appliance repairs. Their tradesmen were very informative and friendly during the repair also. Thanks to all the staff at Wollongong Service Company, much appreciated.

I was most impressed with the service. The service person turned up on time, with a text before hand. He was friendly, polite and most all respectful of my property taking the time to clean up. He also offered advice for future reference. Based on my experience I can highly recommend Wollongong Service Company.

My local repairer could not come to my house for 2 weeks to look at my washing machine because they were fully booked out and so they said to contact Wollongong Service Company to see if they could look at my machine sooner. So I contacted this company and the very next day someone came out and found the problem with my machine. So a part had to be ordered and within a short period of time my machine was fixed. This company is excellent to deal with and the repairer (Jye) was so nice and respectful of my house. I will most certainly be calling this company again if I have any appliance problems in the future and I can't thank them enough for all of their help. I am so happy!
