Washer Repair

It seems that previously, every time we had an issue with our laundry machines or dishwashers, the appliance guy would come out and fiddle around and either not fix the problem or sell us a bill of goods, however, when Mr. Latson arrived, he promptly diagnosed the problem with our washing machine, pointed out a mechanical failure but explaining what we had been doing wrong that led to the error. He reviewed some simple buy critical instructions we'd not been following and gave me a stern but fair lecture about the importance of taking care of my machines. I certainly will use him again. Oh, and btw, use liquid detergent only." - Pinky Proph Epstein

REVIEWS
  • Nothing but good things to say about this company. Very responsive when needed. I purchased a Subway resturant that had equipment issues. Called them that morning at 0600 and Curtis was here at 0700 and had my shop up and running. He is great at follow-up as well. I recommend this company 1000 times over.
    - Tyrone Eugene. 0/6/2020
  • Curtis is really knowlegable and helpful and honest!
    - Amy Mueller. 10/30/2017
  • The owner quickly arranged the pickup, diagnostic, repair, and drop-off for my small appliance repair with the same courtesy one would expect for his commercial contracts.
    - Drew Haynesworth. 4/22/2016
  • Curtis fixed my hot tub. There was a short due to a poor wiring job by the manufacturer. He found the problem right away and charged me a lot less $$ than the estimate. Curtis was on time, personable, and honest.
    - Michael Smith. 2/14/2016
  • Curtis came with part in hand as our over the phone conversation helped with the diagnosis. His fee for his time and effort was quite fair. And he is a Warriors fan. What more can you ask. Importantly he was able to fit me in with one day lead time, which made my wife very happy.
    - Elizabeth DeMarinis. 3/27/2015
  • Unfortunately, I experienced a very small leak that resulted in several visits from Mr. Latson. My three door Kenmore refrigerator kept losing Freon and would not make ice. Despite my frustration of having to throw out food numerous times, Mr. Latson informed me he could fix the problem. He was extremely informative on how the refrigerator system worked. He located and repaired the leak at the evaporator coil and gave me an extended warranty. Mr. Latson got the job done!
    - C Johnson. 3/26/2015
  • Curtis was not only reliable and a thoughtful and considerate person, but also he seems to have fixed our 28 year old subzero freezer with a new compressor. The first one he installed was faulty but he put in another one that seems to be working. We are very grateful.
    - a&n Kukulan. 3/10/2015
  • My name is Toni Morehead, I had Curtis Latson Services out to repair my Jacuzzi, the type of problem we were experiencing, we called several companies, we could not find a company with enough experience to repair our model, we searched for about a week, a co-worker recommended Curtis Latson Services, we called them out, best choice we could have made, it took Curtis about two weeks to order and receive the parts and return to repair the Jacuzzi, we were really impressed with Curtis's knowledge of different appliances, he repaired the Jacuzzi, we were having a problem with our Sauna and Curtis repaired that, what doesn't this company repair, out of all the appliance companies I have dealt with, this company is clearly the most experienced and we will be calling them back to service all of our appliances, thanks Curtis!
    - Teetee Bee. 1/8/2015
  • What can I say? Curtis Latson Services is a top quality company. Curtis is one of those rare finds that takes great pride in his work, and makes sure that everything is done thoroughly, and with precision. He went far beyond the scope of any appliance repair company I have ever hired. Multiple repair places said that my Fisher Paykel Stove/Oven was probably better of being replaced, but not Curtis. He problem solved and problem solved until he made all necessary repairs that needed to be done to have the appliance up and running. It actually was working better than ever and he did it at a fraction of the price. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND CURTIS LATSON SERVICES!!!!! The Best in the business!
    - JG Larochette. 1/6/2015
  • Curtis stepped up and saw it through. I called for a dishwasher repair on a weekend. He showed up right when he said he would, diagnosed the problem, explained things to me, ordered the part, worked with me on scheduling the return, came back and installed the replacement part, and it worked for a cycle or two. Then it died again. Curtis came back, acknowledged that he had overlooked a problem on the first pass, and then took all the steps to address it: ordering new part, scheduling return visits, getting it done, and not charging me for the work that might have been avoided. I respect the strong sense of ownership and integrity that Curtis brought to this project.
    - Matthew Levett. 1/3/2015
  • Curtis was prompt, professional and extremely knowledgable. He diagnosed the problem with my broken microwave within 2 minutes of opening the case. He also explained exactly what was wrong, and showed me how he identified and confirmed the problem. I lucked out that the bad part was available locally, so Curtis was able to pick up the part and fix the problem the same day. Superb repair experience all around; I will definitely call him again the next time I've got an appliance on the fritz.

  • Curtis Latson Services has been a life saver! They've fixed numerous pieces of equipment for me and have always came to the rescue. Curtis handles all his calls directly giving that personal touch and understands how the urgency of needing a repair is crucial. There hasn't been a unit they can't or won't service, which is rare in this industry. I would definitely recommend them for all your refrigeration and appliance needs.
    - Will Robson. 11/4/2014
  • In my experience, Curtis was very professional and knowledgable. He fixed our refrigerator which had a bad compressor. He was very methodical in his diagnosis in order to avoid unnecessary parts replacement. He also was very clear in explaining everything so that I felt comfortable with his diagnosis and repair. Finally, he shifted his schedule in order to come to our house quickly given that we were experiencing a refrigerator emergency.

  • Curtis was great. I couldn't believe how organized he was. He inspected our Blue Star range and ordered the parts on the spot. He had them delivered to us and installed them once they came. It doesn't get better than that. The last two guys over the last two years have only given us excuses why the couldn't complete the job, but Curtis got it done in two weeks. Bravo!
