How old is it?
Many major appliances last roughly 10 to 15 years with good care. Repairing a young appliance usually makes sense; a very old one may not.

Repair or Replace Your Appliance? A Practical Guide
A broken appliance does not always mean a new purchase. Here is how we think about the decision with customers in Panama City and Northwest Florida.
Decision guide
Four questions to ask
What will the repair cost?
A common rule of thumb is to think hard about replacing when the repair approaches half the price of a comparable new appliance.
Is this the first problem?
A single worn part is different from repeated failures across systems.
Is it a premium appliance?
Premium refrigerators, ranges, and built-ins cost far more to replace and often justify repair.
Honest recommendations
How we help
We diagnose the problem, explain what we found, and give you a repair quote for anything beyond a quick fix. You decide whether to proceed. If an appliance was exposed to flooding, see our hurricane appliance preparation guide before using it. If you choose not to repair, the $150 service visit and diagnostic fee is still due.
Service visit
$150 service visit & diagnostic fee
The fee covers the technician's trip, diagnosis, and basic repairs that take under 30 minutes. If a repair needs more time, parts, or specialized work, we give you a repair quote before proceeding. Repairs carry a 30-day labor & diagnostic warranty.
