The floor

Washers, dryers, ranges, refrigerators. And the rest.

Two floors of it. Top freezer, side-by-side and French door refrigerators. Gas and electric ranges, wall ovens and cooktops. Washers, dryers and stacked laundry. Dishwashers, microwaves, freezers and AC units — new, used and reconditioned on the same floor, so you can put three price levels of the same machine side by side. Stock turns over week to week, which is the honest reason there is no catalogue here: come see what is on the floor today, or call and we will tell you what just landed.

Brands

We work on whatever you've got.

Maytag, Frigidaire, Whirlpool, LG, KitchenAid, Samsung, GE — those are on the floor and on the bench regularly. If your brand isn't on that list, it doesn't matter. We repair any brand, and in-shop estimates are free.

Questions

The ones we get every week.

If it isn't here, call (401) 232-9090 between 9 and 5, Monday through Friday. We'd rather answer it than have you guess.

  • Yes — estimates are free in the shop, at 228 Putnam Pike, Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM. Call (401) 232-9090 with the brand and a plain description of what the appliance is doing and we'll go from there. We've been doing this about thirty years, so you don't need the technical term for it.

  • Yes. We repair any brand, whether you bought it here, bought it somewhere else, or it came with the house. Have the brand and model number handy when you call — it's usually on a sticker inside the door or behind a bottom drawer.

  • If you're within 50 miles of our shop in Johnston (02919), yes. That reaches every town in Rhode Island plus a good part of Massachusetts and Connecticut. Give us your town or ZIP on the phone at (401) 232-9090 and we'll confirm it in a second.

  • Both. New appliances sit on the same floor as used and reconditioned ones at 228 Putnam Pike, so you can compare three price levels of the same kind of machine on one trip instead of guessing from a listing. Tell us the budget you're working with and we'll show you what's in that range.

  • No — we're closed Saturday and Sunday, so please don't make the drive. Everything happens Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM. If weekdays are hard for you, call (401) 232-9090 during the week and tell us what you need; a lot can be sorted out on the phone before you ever come in.
