Fred Hall Vacuum & Floor Machine

I went in to get my vacuum serviced because it stopped sucking up crud every time I tried to vacuum. I went in and saw Wayne (sweet man) and he took my vacuum apart right then and there! He removed a disgusting clog that was the core of the problem and also put in a new belt. He showed me how to remove the clog myself next time and directed me to YouTube videos so that next time, I can do it myself and save money. Talk about honesty?! Highly recommended and very honest place.

Best place for vacuum repair! These guys know their stuff. Awesome customer service and just all around nice friendly guys as well. This place is a gem. Highly recommended!

I couldn’t be more impressed with this place. I was running late to drop off my vacuum and he told me not to rush, he’d stay late. He said he’d call the next day with an estimate to fix it. It was under $ 20 and done within a few days. We were really pleased. Don’t be surprised if you get a mini lecture on how to better care for your vacuum, but, let’s face it, if you had to visit this place, you probably deserve it. We did.
It looks like you can also buy refurbished vacuums here as well, as there were tons on display for sale. Didn’t check the prices.

Exceptional service & repair work. I took my vacuum to Fred knowing I needed a belt, but thinking that other problems were probably also present. Fred called within 2 days telling me that I needed belts, all new filters (there are 4 of them), and a tune-​up. All of this was less than $ 50.
The vacuum is now running better than the day I bought it!
I can’t recommend this business highly enough!

I took my vacuum to this shop just to have it cleaned and serviced. They did a great job. The vacuum looks almost new. They replaced the filter, belt and washed out all of the hoses, attachments, and brushes. They even fixed the handle that was always stuck and super difficult to open. All for less than $ 40. The only downside was it took a little longer than I expected which wasn’t a big deal because I had a backup vacuum at home. I would definitely recommend this shop and if I was staying in town I would utilize this shop again!

I wouldn’t recommend this shop. They seem overwhelmed.

I’ve been coming here off and on for 15 years. Interestingly enough, I don’t come here for vacuum repairs or parts. The owner is a jack-​of-​all-​trades. He recently re-​wired some old lamps which are original to my 1920’s home, as well as various other random repairs. If anything in your home is broken or in need of an upgrade, I would bring it to Fred. I bet 99% of the time, he could fix it! And, as others have mentioned, he is very reasonable…

Nothing but great service. Very professional and very knowledgeable. This was my first time going. I apparently don’t know my butt from a vacuum, and didn’t realize that I turned on the hardwood floor feature that disables the bristles from spinning. The older gentleman at the store showed me exactly what was going on and showed me the err of my ways. My vacuum is working well, and he even gave me some tips. I will definitely be going back to him for parts and service in the future. Highly recommended!

I have been taking my vacuum cleaner to Fred’s for 20 years. I have also taken my mother in law’s carpet steam cleaner. He has my wierd vacume bags in stock, that is amazing. They always charge me less than I expect. And after this much time I know I am being taken care of. One time a few years ago when the same thing mysteriously had to be fixed twice on the steam cleaner they didn’t even charge me for the second repair and I know it wasn’t thier fault.
Over the years I have purchased other various things from his jam packed shop and never once wanted to return any of it.
Plenty of parking and sometimes they even carry my machine back out to the car for me. (not everytime but it’s appreciated when they do)
I have also referred several people to go here through the years and each one of them has said they were happy with Freds

My vaccuum’s cord need replacing and I took it to Fred Hall to find out if it was worth replacing or if it would be cheaper to buy a new vaccuum. I received a free estimate of the work and the vacuum was ready within a week. Upon picking up my vaccuum, I found that the gentlemen had not only replaced my cord, but, replaced a broken cord hook with a «customized» swivel one, and cleaned my vaccuum. Once I returned home, I plugged it up to vaccuum and as soon as I turned it on, it roared to life and lurched forward in a previously unseen way. My vaccuum sucks like crazy, and it feels like the motor was replaced. The price was reasonable, and it runs like a new vaccuum.

The belt on my Vacuum cleaner had been broken almost two weeks and it was driving me NUTS to not vacuum my carpet (I have a dog). I called a few places but no one had the belt for the vacuum I had. After calling 6 places I finally found a place but the guy who answered the phone was beyond RUDE!
I decided to call one more place before I gave up and that when I found Fred Hall Vacuum & Floor Machine. I called and they had the belt I needed in stock and were very nice on the phone. It was a Saturday and they were closing in 15 minutes but the guy who answered told me if I could get there in 30 minutes he would wait for me.
I jumped in my car and headed over with vacuum in hand just to be sure it was the right belt. He stood by his word and waited for me. He sold me the belt and even installed it and cleaned the brushes. I was expecting a replacement to cost me an arm and a leg but I was out the door having on payed $ 17.
You guys ROCK!!! Thank you!

My Dyson Animal vacuum cleaner looked like it had a broken neck. It wouldn’t stand up and the brush part of the vacuum just flopped around. Of course, this is the time of year my dog is shedding like crazy, so I was anxious to get the vacuum repaired. I dropped it off Monday morning and was amazed to get a call Monday afternoon, «your vacuum is ready for pick-​up.» Parts and labor $ 19. Many thanks to Fred and Wayne from another happy customer.

I needed to fix an old/​cheap vacuum, read great reviews for this place, so I dropped it off and got a quote in a couple days. It would cost more than the vacuum was new (found out that’s because I forgot a couple important pieces at home by accident). I had already purchased a replacement, so they offered to buy the old one off of me. The service was great and helpful! If I or anyone I know needs to fix their vacuum or whatever else they fix, I’ll bring it in to them.

This place is great… very thorough in checking everything. We have several cats and dogs and they repaired out Dyson to practically new. Give them a try! You won’t be sorry.

Extremely helpful. Another place told me I needed to replace a part that was over $ 100.00. Fred said it just needed to be cleaned out. These guys are the best! Very knowledgeable and down-​to-​earth, this is the place to get your vacuum repaired

OK. this is a REBUTTAL to a post I made earlier. I was a little impatient with my problem with the crack in the cover. The next day after I posted, I was able to pick up my vacumn. The crack was fixed… and the lid cover latch problem was solved with an ingenious trick of using duct tape with a little tab to make it easier to open.
I would have had to pay 90 + bucks to get a new lid cover, but I was saved the expense by this ingenuity. It works just fine now and I thank Wayne for his help.

Ive been going here for years, and my experience is always the same, polite, honest, helpful fast service every time! I usually am able to pick up my item within a day or two, and they are always nice, and know exactly what the problem is by my explanation, which is amazing!
I would not go anywhere else, these guys are the best!

I thought I had killed my expensive Dyson vacuum. I tried to vacuum ashes from our fireplace because I was too lazy to clean it the old-​fashioned way, by sweeping it out. But, I have a very sensitive vacuum because I need one that will pick up cat fur since I have asthma. Unfortunately, my Dyson did not appreciate having to pick up ashes and rebelled by quitting on me. I tried washing the filters, but apparently that wasn’t good enough. What to do? I got on Unilocal and looked for a reliable vacuum repair shop in Long Beach. That’s how I ended up at Fred Hall. It’s an interesting shop with stuff all over the place. I don’t care as long as they can fix my vacuum and they did, for a very reasonable price. The next day my hubby used the vacuum and the roller stopped moving and he thought he killed it. Before I could do bodily damage to him, back to the shop our poor vacuum went and the man there found the problem in about 30 seconds. There is a button you push when you don’t want the roller to move and apparently hubby accidentally pushed that button. Who knew? We sure didn’t, and we weren’t charged, which was nice. We had two great experiences with Fred Hall and I would go back in a second.

I took my poor neglected vacuum cleaner there some months ago, and Fred saved it! And he saved me a lot of money too. It was running like new when I left. I felt as if he really cared about my machine.
So today when I needed a new plug on my iron, I called Fred’s. They repaired the cord and reinforced it so I would not have the same problem in the future. And they had it done in the time it took me to get a cup of coffee and return.
Besides repair, Fred’s also carries a complete line of janitorial supplies, several refurbished vacuums for sale, and carpet cleaning machines for rent. Oh, and they make keys (that actually work!).
You won’t find a fancy showroom. In fact, it sort of resembles a stuffed attic full of everything one in the vacuum repair business might need. You will find, however, a couple of regular guys who do good work for a fair and honest price.

Having an extremely furry cat, our vacuum is the appliance we can’t live without… so when ours is not in perfect working order, we go to Fred. This is why I think Fred’s rocks…
1. Friendly Service
2. Reasonable prices and free estimate
3. Fast, reliable service
4. Consistant– Have been taking the vac here for a few years and have always had the same great experience.
Listen– its not a fancy place, but if you want your vacuum to run like new for a reasonable price, go here. Also, they sell used restored vacuums and usually have used parts on hand that they can use (like my «on» switch which was shot).
