Warranty

I used them in 2019 Great service provided but the same issue came back and the 1 year warranty apparently doesn’t apply now. I won’t be recommending them to anyone and not surprised as they only care about new business and not getting Repeat clients.

Hello Michael, it looks like you changed your review score, but not the comment.

This was a miscommunication on our part for not explaining the circumstances clearly enough.

Michael was out of his labor warranty which is guaranteed for 3 months (90 days) but the component was still within range. Due to the COVID-19 situation we do not have technicians in the Milton area and so we could not confirm if the issue was the same and if the same piece was causing.

Once Michael verified that it was the same piece causing the problem by showing us the diagnosis of another tech who came to assess the issue, Man With a Wrench covered the part price.

We always stand by our warranty policies and thank you Michale for sharing your experience which allowed us to be able to properly catch your concern and tend to it.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Dryer Repair

5-star recommendation - A short note to thank Alex, Cesar from Man with a Wrench for the quick and attentive service in the repair of our dryer. From a free virtual diagnosis (worn pulley), to scheduling a repair person to come out to the house less than 24hrs later, to a text msg from Cesar telling me he was 15min away and then a quick and easy repair. Would highly recommend Cesar for in house service and Man with a Wrench for appliance repair. Thank you. SD

Clogged Dishwasher

We were having issues with our dishwasher, where water wasn't draining properly from the bottom. There was no visible food or material at the bottom of the dishwasher, and in the last run, it started leaking water onto our floor. Since we rent our place, we had to contact our landlord to set up a technician to come visit; however this was going to take a few days, and cost us a lot of money (we have to pay for part of any appliance maintenance). A friend suggested that we contact Man With a Wrench, and not only was it booked faster than my landlord would have found someone for, Alex had our issue resolved within (literally) 60 seconds. He had us laughing the whole time, and was a GODSEND, especially in times like this (COVID-19) where you don't want too many people visiting your home. I cannot say enough good things about this online set-up and will absolutely recommend him to everyone I know (I already passed along his info to my landlord). Thank you thank you thank you!

Dryer

I got a virtual consultation for my dryer, which was making a weird sound. They were very helpful, diagnosing from the noise over the phone, then looking up and sending me the exact correct part numbers. Great service!

Love the virtual consultation!

I went to their website when my oven broke, and booked a virtual consultation for 9 am the next day! So easy. Alex did his best to help me over the virtual meeting so I won't even need to get a technician, but in the end I decided to book someone. He arrived 2 hours later, fixed my oven and I later got an email invoice. Really effortless experience.

Dishwasher Virtual Diagnosis

We called Man with a Wrench because we had used their services awhile back because they were the company referred from Miele at that time. We reached Alex at home in the evening and he talked us through what the possible scenarios could be based on our description of the damage. His suggestion was that we should arrange a Virtual Diagnosis appointment to get a better sense of what the true damage was. We made the appointment online. Right on time we were connected via Zoom and Alex was the technician who did the virtual diagnosis. He looked at the damage on our dishwasher and gave us a repair quote right away. Once we decided not to repair the damage, Alex gave us excellent recommendations on what new dishwasher we should buy and the features he would recommend. Alex spent a great deal of time with us answering our questions and helping us figure out what to do. I would highly recommend Man With A Wrench. Alex was extremely knowledgeable about dishwashers. The virtual diagnosis service they offer is an excellent idea and really made this whole process easy to deal with. A professional and honest company.

I don’t think I could find a technician with as encyclopedic knowledge of appliances as Alex and as thoughtful an approach as Alex. I would recommend Man With a Wrench without reservation. Other repair companies could certainly learn a lot about customer service from Man with a Wrench.

I would recommend Man with a Wrench without reservation.

Washing Machine stopped working

We had our washing machine stop working... set a request to Man with a Wrench and got an answer within a few hours to book an appointment (next morning). Phoned to let us know he was on his way and was able to quickly diagnose and fix the issue. Repair took less than 30 minutes to execute and we're happy to have a working washing machine. On time, courteous, helpful! Couldn't be happier with the service and will definately make them my first call if I have any applicance issues... which I hope I don't have.

Goes above and beyond

Our washer broke down and I talked to Oleg from Man With a Wrench. He confirmed over the phone what I suspected to be the issue and agreed that it wasn't likely worth fixing. He could have left it at that but he wanted to take the time to give me a true estimate of what the repair would cost instead of just ball park. He called his suppliers to find out part prices and e-mailed me the estimate. I didn't pay for him to do any of this as the washer isn't worth repairing. When I need my next appliance repaired, I will definitely be calling Man With a Wrench!

Honest Advice

My washer was making a noise and based on my description Man with a Wrench called me to let me know that he didn't feel it would be worth repairing due to the cost vs purchasing a new unit. As a young family, we appreciated this honesty and saving the service call fee.

Hello Robyn,

It is great to hear that one of our technicians was able to save you the service call and pre-diagnose the washing machine for you.

During current issues with COVID-19, we have also set up the ability for customers to call in and have a video chat with our customers which will possibly even allow us to instruct the customer of how to repair the appliance, without us having to come out and charge a service call.

If there are any other questions or concers, please do not hesitate to call us, and we will promptly tend to all of your needs.

Thank you,
Team Man With a Wrench
