Appliance repairs in Fernhill

Fernhill is one of the smaller northern suburbs, a compact pocket of about a thousand people tucked between Fairy Meadow, Tarrawanna and Balgownie in the foothills. It is quiet and largely residential, and a good share of the homes are rentals, so the appliances here tend to be older and worked hard. Basic builder-grade machines in particular tend to give out at the drain pump and the door lock first. Reliable, unglamorous repairs are most of what we do up here.

The faults we see

Rental laundries take a beating, and the washing machine is the appliance that shows it first. A machine that has stopped spinning is usually a blocked drain pump filter, worn drum bearings, or a failed door lock, and on a sound machine all three are worth fixing rather than replacing. If yours is leaving clothes soaking wet, our guide to a washing machine that will not drain or spin walks through the checks. We are used to dealing with agents and owners at a distance too, sending photos and quotes through before a technician arrives, which keeps rental repairs moving.

Family homes push the dryer hard through winter, and a dryer that runs but will not heat is nearly always a blown thermal fuse or a dead heating element, a common and inexpensive fix. The first thing to check yourself is the lint filter and the vent, since a blocked vent makes a dryer run hot and cut out, and that is the most common thing we find before any part is needed. In the kitchen, the fridge is the one that quietly runs up the power bill when its condenser coils clog with dust, so it runs constantly and still struggles to cool. Pulling it out and brushing the dust off the coils, then giving it a few days, sorts a good share of warm-fridge call-outs.

Around here

Fernhill is small, so we usually fold it into a run through Balgownie and Fairy Meadow, with Corrimal close by. When a technician is already in the area, same-day service is often realistic.

What it costs

The assessment fee for Fernhill is $125, fixed. A technician diagnoses the fault and quotes before any work starts, so you are choosing on real figures, not guesswork. Repairs are covered by our warranty, and Afterpay is there if a bigger job needs spreading out.

Doug Roberts

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.

Anne Biswas

Very prompt service. Rang late the afternoon before and a technician was at my house the next morning. Problem fixed in no time. Definitely will use this service again.

Communication was clear and professional. Prompt service. Polite and professional technician who readily got to the problem with the dishwasher and fixed it on the first visit. Highly recommended. Many thanks.

Tony Koloski

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.

Mark Terechovs

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.

Alida Anna Betags

My washing machine stopped working and I called Wollongong Service Company and they were able to send someone out within a couple of hours to have a look at it. Fortunately, it was a very quick and easy fix. Would recommend.

Frank Stephenson

A great experience everybody was so friendly. The repair man who turned up was fast good and friendly.

Jan Riley

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!

Had problem with oven door , had multiple companies come out and look . Not one could fix the issue or told us it was a different problem. The lovely gentleman turned up and took 2 minutes of his time to fix the problem completely. Would definitely recommend this local company. A++ service and communication.
