GIV Appliance Repair

Our frig suddenly went out. Everything was melting and thawing out! I called these guys based on their excellent reviews. The man I talked to on the phone said that not only did he think he knew what was the matter but that he could be there within the hour. Just as he promised, he was here within an hour and had it fixed in about 15 minutes! Fast, efficient, friendly, and honest. They are everything you would want from an Appliance Repair along with very reasonable and fair prices. I give «Giv Appliance Repair» 5 stars! Thank you GIV.

These guys came out on a Sunday. They were here within an hour of our call. They ordered the necessary parts and the the refrigerator was fixed in 2 days! They are a father and son team. So honest and they do great work. Another repairman quoted me the same price to fix 1 of my 2 ice makers. They fixed both ice makers and replaced the main circuit board for the same price!!! I will call them any time I need any appliance fixed and will recommend them to all of my friends. Thanks guys!!!

I just used GIV appliance service to fix my washer. We made an appointment between 8 and 9 for service the next day.
they were here at 8:15 great customer service fixed the problem with my washer within 15 minutes.
I would use their services again.
Highly recommend them.

They arrived on time and were friendly and knowledgeable. They quickly diagnosed the problem and gave me a more than decent price for the repair. I will definitely use them for my future repair needs.

Outstanding service. I called on Saturday morning to ask if they could repair my washer which had broken down several days before. I tried a different repair service first (which I also found on Unilocal — they’ll be getting their review soon) which was a total disaster. That other company kept me waiting for days, saying «we’ll call you when we’ve got your part», but less than a half hour after I called GIV alliance repair, Igor and his son were at my door! Igor have me a very detailed description of the problem and a fair quote. Less than 15 minutes later my washer was repaired. It’s working beautifully now. Igor also gave me a one year warranty on the repair. These guys are great and I certainly plan to call on them in the future if I need any appliance repair.

My dryer stopped working and gave me an error message which, of course, meant nothing to me. I looked on Unilocal for some help in finding a repair company and came across many poor reviews of other companies. When I found the great reviews for GIV I gave them a call. They were at my home within the hour and had already researched the error code, so they knew what to look for. They replaced the broken part with a generic part which worked just fine, but Igor said he would feel better if it was replaced with the name brand part, so he ordered it, picked it up that day, and was back to my house by 7:00 am the next morning to put in the new part!!! This father and son team have a great work ethic — I would recommend them highly to anyone in need of appliance repairs.

Igor and his son came to fix my fridge. They arrived quickly, and were very efficient and professional. They explained everything and answered all my questions. They even fixed the bottom drawer at no charge even though it took longer than they expected. Thanks guys!

I wish I could give these guys more than 5 stars! Our oven broke yesterday, 4 days before Christmas. I never thought we’d we able to get it fixed in time. I found GIV on Unilocal and I called Igor 9pm Monday night. Igor and his son came out at 8am the next morning. They diagnosed the problem and were back by 1pm with the part and fixed the oven. They also fixed one of the broken burners on our cooktop and serviced our dishwasher! Igor is very clearly an honest man and has a very good understanding of appliances and electronics. The price was very fair and the service and professionalism was fantastic. I’ve never felt so pleased with an appliance repair company before and I won’t be using anyone else from now on.

I woke up to melting shrimp and milky ice cream in my fridge BEFORE WORK today. I was panicked. I immediately jumped on Unilocal for HELP! I couldn’t get the fridge looked at until after work. These gentlemen waited for me to get home even though they arrived before me. Turns out I needed a new motor. They explained everything. They worked quickly. They gave me a discount. Big Thank you to Oleg and his partner! I’m chilling again. Lol

I don’t write reviews often but I felt a need to write about my experience and GREATLY RECOMMEND GIV. Last night my refrigerator seemed to be running warm and this morning when I woke up, everything in my freezer was defrosted, and my fridge was warmer than room temperature. I called GIV as soon as I discovered this which was pretty early this morning… As soon as I placed my call to GIV Igor was responsible and came immediately. I was thinking I would have to buy an entire new refrigerator but Igor discovered that this was not the case at all. He said my control board wasn’t turning on my compressor (I’m not sure the technicalities, but it obviously was not good). GIV not only gave me a great quote, but also because of his honesty they saved me more than just the money (and hassle) I would have spent on an entire new fridge. He also left the old broken piece where I clearly saw it had a dark burn mark on the back of the board… My GE refrigerator has been up and running and I couldn’t be happier for the service, honesty and incredibly quick response time. Thank you so much GIV!!! I strongly recommend choosing this company!!! Thank you again!!!

Great service. After getting the runaround with another appliance repair company for my broken oven, I called GIV and they came out right away. Their service fee is very reasonable, and it was applied toward the cost of the repair. They very quickly diagnosed the problem and gave me an estimate, and were able to order the part and return to repair the oven within 2 days. I mentioned our refrigerator was running hot, and they said that was a quick fix and fixed that problem for free. They were also courteous and on time. I definitely recommend.

GIV Appliance Service is the service I used for only one time and I know that’s the one I will keep using. This is a long review, and I’d like to take the time to write it in appreciation of the service they have provided.
I have 3 requirements for a service that I will call good and reuse: 1. Reliable, 2. Comfortable, 3. Exceeding expectations. The service I have received from GIV Appliance Service Co., performed by Igor and his assistant, meets all of above.
I had a broken furnace which my home warranty plan declined to cover, so I had to go on the market and shop for HVAC repair. I did my homework, screened through tens of service providers (including SEARS, Home Depot, appliance repair service providers, and HVAC specialists) from Unilocal,angie’s list, and HVAC websites, and called 4 of them to come for diagnostics. I knew I had to pay service call fees to all of them, but I think it is better than blindly go with only one voice. In the end, I chose GIV.
===== Reliable Service With GIV=====
Igor demonstrated his capability that he can fix the issue for sure.
He and his assistant have to come to my place twice as the first time, the time they budgeted wasn’t enough to completely resolve the problem (it wasn’t a straight forward fix, which I know from the fact that my home warranty declined the service). They showed up on time both of the times. They were also geared up with many diagnostic tools. They dressed tidy but slightly worn clothes from which I know they can really get on to the ground and get the work done.
After I stated I want a repair, I heard NO sales pitch from them (compare to another service provider I talked to who quoted me $ 700 for repair and pushed me for replace.)
Igor is experienced, knowledgable, and also possesses very strong systematic troubleshooting skills that I rarely see in technicians/​contractors that I have experienced. He understands how the system works together and performed serial testing from part to part to locate or rule out the problem, which made me confident that he is capable to fix the unit.
I was next to them and observing their work. Holding a Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering myself, I could tell the way Igor handling the wires, connecting circuits were based on his fully understanding of the system and the problem, not some sort of «trail and error» activities.
He located the root cause, which was a malfunction between the pilot and gas valve, NOT the gas valve itself as the other service provider suggested. He was prepared with the parts and was able to replace them on the spot, once he located the problem (the second visit).
===== Comfortable Service With GIV =====
Throughout the repair, Igor showed his honesty, that he was here to help me not take advantage of me. I can trust the suggestions he provides as I know that is for my own good.
Igor thinks in the customer’s shoe. He provides advice but does not push or threaten for a decision. My control board in the furnace was old and discontinued. he prepared a new board for troubleshooting, so that he could rule out problems in that part. Afternoon the unit was fixed, he provided me an advice to change the control board as well since it was old and will die soon. But he made it neutral and left the decision to me. I didn’t feel I was pushed or lured. Again, because of my education degree, I know he was telling the truth because I recognized some of the components on the old control board were from the 80s. I took his advice and replaced the control board as a preventative maintenance investment, and I do not need to pay extra labor cost.
Igor was also polite, well-​mannered, who also possess a good sense of humor, but at the same time very serious about getting work done. He stayed where he needed to be, and didn’t step into any other places in my property, not even use of restroom or wash his hands.
===== Exceeding Expectations =====
Everything I listed above demonstrates the service was of great quality. But Igor didn’t stop there, he exceeded my expectation.
Price as a main factor: With a good 4 hour of work, he charged only $ 600, including labor and parts — a very competitive service charge comparing to other providers. He could have ripped me off, but he didn’t.
After he confirmed the problem was fixed, he also tested my whole HVAC system to make sure AC, fan and heater are all functioning correctly together.
By inspecting the unit, he pointed out that the furnace wasn’t installed correctly so some electrical wires and pipes were stretched out. As he was fixing the malfunctioning parts, he extended my electrical wires and changed the gas pipe to a longer one.
After he checked everything was working fine, he patiently put back all the parts and recovered the unit to its original looking. (comparing to the other service provider I had, who took off the front pane of the furnace and didn’t put it back).

Igor is very responsive and knows appliances very well. He helped us with fixing refrigerator and washer. We were amazed by the great service he provided.

Wow! Just wow! I just returned from a week’s vacation (literally early this morning) with a ton of laundry to do and a broken washing machine. After reading the Unilocal reviews I called Igor at GIV — not only did he answer on a Sunday but then he said he could be here in 30 minutes! It’s a holiday weekend and a Sunday y’all!!! True to his word he showed up promptly, quickly diagnosed the issue, gave me a fair estimate and was in/​out within the hour with the washing machine fixed & functioning! I’m amazed & so grateful! Would definitely recommend — highly! Thanks Igor!

Checked out refrigerator. Service was efficient and informative, very reasonably priced.

Thank you so much Igor and son for coming over to our house to help us with the washer issue so fast! We greatly appreciate your honesty, fair price, advise and your great work!

My dryer was broken and was very pleased with service. Was attended to right away fixed within a few hours. Very professional and fair prices.

Our A/​C fan broke 5 days ago and had to have it fix before it gets hot again here in the valley. My husband called and left a message to several A/​C repair service and no one has returned his call. So I looked at Unilocal & this is the first on the list that came out. My husband called the number at exactly 8am which is the time they open on a Saturday (labor day weekend). He was able to make an appointment between 11:30am to 1:30pm on the same exact day.
I did not get the chance to see him because I was with my 20 months old baby in the room so this review was based on my husbands comments about him. He came right on time (11:30am) & first thing he told my husband was, «i’ve been here to this place before» (referring to our house) he said, «I fixed your A/​C too years ago but I was working for a different company & now I have my own» (which is GIV). Afterwards, he started working on changing the broken fan. My husband also said that he also added a capacitor for the fan so that it will not over heat or something and added a freon free of charge. Aside from getting the fan fixed we also had our thermostat changed to digital for an additional $ 120 — which we think is reasonable.
Our OVERALL experience with GIV Appliance Repair was VERY GREAT!!! Very PROFESSIONAL! We are very glad that it is GIV that we called!
You have gained another customer who will be loyal to you! If we have something that needs to be repair (a/​c, appliance etc.) We will only call GIV!
WE ARE ONE HAPPY and SATISFIED CUSTOMER!!!

My air conditioning unit broke during an intense heat wave. I had trouble finding a repair company that could help me since they all had numerous calls to make. I called GIF, and though they too were super busy, they were at my home within three hours.
They quickly found the problem (the thermostat) and had an awesome new digital thermostat installed in 20 minutes! They showed me how to use it, and all my air conditioning problems were solved!
I asked them if they service all appliances, and they said they did. So I showed them the handle on the door of my washing machine that was breaking, and asked if they could help me with it. He showed me the website for replacement parts on my computer, got the model no. and part no. for me from inside the washer, and helped me order the part for $ 30. He showed me exactly how to replace the part when it gets here, but told me that he would be happy to stop by and install it for me if I need help.
I’m SO grateful to have found GIF Appliances! They were here in a flash, and gave me a discount which he applied to the cost of the thermostat. The service fee was also applied against that cost.
I couldn’t be happier! My air conditioning is running perfectly and I feel as if I now have a reliable, reasonably-​priced appliance technician in my neighborhood that I can call.

Igor and his Son came 30 min after I called them about an AC problem. Igor made me feel like I’m in safe, professional and honest hands. They made my day and I would hire them again in an instant. I actually might since my washer is broken.
Great experience. Thanks Igor and Olek.
