Ever wonder which appliances break first?

We’ve seen thousands. Here's the truth:

• Gas stoves and dryers last the longest.
• Dishwashers and modern fridges (especially with ice makers) break most often.

Average time until first repair:
– Dishwasher: 5–6 years
– Fridge: 6–8 years
– Gas range: 12–15 years

Want to make your appliances last longer?
We do deep maintenance with before/after proof — filters, vents, coils — the works.

Is your refrigerator struggling to stay cold?
If your food feels warmer than it should, here are a few things to check:

• Are both freezer and fridge sections warm? That’s serious — could be compressor.
• Only one side warm? Listen for the fan — no sound means trouble.
• Are the vents blocked by food? Cold air needs space to flow.
• Check if the door seals properly. Warm air leaks in fast.
• Dusty condenser coils? That kills cooling fast.

If it’s still warm after checking — don’t wait.

Fridge not cooling properly? It might be the door seal!!

Use these steps to test your fridge door gasket:

1. Do the Dollar bill/paper test
Close the fridge door with a dollar bill or a piece of paper sticking out a little bit of it. Take it out slowly; if it doesn't come out, the seal is good. If it slides out easy, the seal is probably worn

2. Visual Inspection
Look for: Cracks, tears, or brittleness
Mold, grime, or grease buildup may stop a seal

3. Look for a cold air leaks
Pass your hand along the edges of the door, if they are cold the seal is loose.

4. Check for any condensation or frost

🧽 How to clean the gasket?
• Use warm soapy water or a mix of vinegar and water
• Wipe into the folds.
• Do not use any rough chemicals that dry out rubber

When to Replace the Gasket?
• If it's broken, cleaning won’t help — replace it.

Does your washer smell like mold?

That musty odor isn’t just annoying — it could be mold hiding in the rubber door gasket. It’s a common issue, especially in front-load washers.

Here’s how to handle it:
• Wipe the door seal regularly — detergent and moisture build up fast
• Leave the washer door open after use to let it dry
• Run a hot cleaning cycle with vinegar or washer cleaner at least once a month

Still smells bad?
Let our techs take care of it. We serve Portland, OR and Vancouver, WA, and we’re here to get your washer fresh and functional again.
