Brands we work on
Independent service, not tied to any manufacturer.
Find the fault, explain it, quote it
We're an independent repair company, not a Kenmore service center. That works two ways: we can look at a Kenmore appliance once the factory warranty has run out, and if yours is still covered, Kenmore should hear from you first. Out of coverage, our technician visits, identifies the failed component and prices the fix before ordering anything.
Older houses
Period kitchens often leave tight clearances behind each unit.
Upstairs laundry
A leaking washer over a finished ceiling is worth booking early.
Garage fridges
The manual lists the room temperatures a unit tolerates.

Kenmore repair: common questions
The questions below cover Kenmore repair from booking through to the quote. Anything they miss can go in the form's notes box.
Ready to get it looked at?
A technician comes to your home anywhere in our service area and diagnoses your Kenmore appliance on the spot. You see the price before any work starts.
No. We work independently of Kenmore and every other maker. While Kenmore's factory coverage is still active, Kenmore should handle the fix at its own cost. After that coverage lapses, book with us.
Where Kenmore still supplies the part, yes. When only an equivalent is available, we tell you so before installing it. Either way, the part is matched to your model number.
The Kenmore appliance types listed on this page: refrigerator, washer, dryer, dishwasher, oven, microwave, freezer, cooktop, stove and range. Each one has its own page with the symptoms we diagnose.
It comes down to the age of the Kenmore and what failed. Kenmore parts are mass-produced and easy to get, so a repair is often sensible; when it isn't, the technician tells you after the diagnosis.
Look for the model number on the appliance itself: on a Kenmore dryer, the sticker on the door jamb, visible once the door is open; on a Kenmore dishwasher, the sticker along the tub's edge or on the door's side; on a Kenmore oven, the rating plate, often found once the bottom drawer is pulled out. A phone photo of that label is fine, plus a line about the symptom.
Kenmore repair around Charlotte
For Kenmore owners around Charlotte: we diagnose at the appliance, explain the failure, and quote before any work. Kenmore categories we take on: refrigerator, washer, dryer, dishwasher, oven, microwave, freezer, cooktop, stove, and range.
Three points on Kenmore. To start, after the model number reveals the actual builder, a Kenmore takes that builder's parts and tends to break the way its own machines do. Next, Kenmore never had a factory of its own; Whirlpool, LG, Electrolux, GE and others built Kenmore models over the years, and the first three digits of the model number, ahead of the period, point to the real maker. Last, the Kenmore name belongs to Transformco, the company that bought the assets of Sears Holdings in 2019, so a recent Kenmore may come from a different supplier than an older one in the same category.
Each Kenmore category has its own page with the faults specific to that appliance.
Who actually built your Kenmore?
The Kenmore name doesn't tell you which factory built the appliance. Different Kenmore models came from different manufacturers, so two that look alike can share no parts at all. The model number settles it, which is why we ask for it when you book a Kenmore repair in Mecklenburg County.
How a Kenmore repair usually plays out in Charlotte
Kenmore products are built in large numbers, and that works in your favor when something breaks. The parts that wear out on Kenmore machines, such as pumps, inlet valves, door switches, igniters, belts and fan motors, are produced in volume, so a Kenmore job in Charlotte rarely stalls waiting on a shipment.
Electronics are the exception. A main control board for a Kenmore costs far more than a switch or a valve, and on an older appliance that alone can make replacement the smarter move. You'll know which situation you're in after the diagnosis.
Local conditions and your Kenmore
Cooling equipment from Kenmore works hardest in July and August, when warm rooms and dusty condensers push run times up. Kenmore laundry in humid Charlotte summers means watching front-load gaskets for mildew and keeping dryer vents clear for fire safety. Charlotte Water's supply is soft, so film on glasses from a Kenmore dishwasher usually points to detergent, rinse aid or a wash fault rather than scale. Kenmore ranges and cooktops come in gas and electric versions; knowing which you have before the visit saves time. A built-in Kenmore microwave usually has to come out for repair, and summer storm surges can affect its electronics.
When a Kenmore isn't worth fixing
Sometimes the honest answer is to replace it. If a Kenmore needs a repair that costs close to a new unit, or it's old enough that other parts are near the end, we'll tell you that rather than quote the job.
Kenmore repairs in rentals, condos and HOA communities
If you rent, the landlord or property manager may need to approve a Kenmore repair, so have their contact handy. In condo buildings around Uptown and South End, let us know about parking, elevator or loading rules when you book.
Getting a Kenmore repair scheduled
The request form and the phone both work. The Kenmore model number helps us check parts before the technician arrives.
