How long does it take you to reach Martinez?

Martinez is a 30 to 35 minute run up 680 from San Ramon. We fold it into our Diablo Valley window with Concord and Pleasant Hill, so we're routing through the area on set days each week. You get a written arrival window when you book.

My Maytag gas range burner clicks but won't light. What is it?

Almost always the surface igniter weakening. It still sparks but doesn't get hot enough to light the gas cleanly, or lights slow. It's a stocked part and a first-visit fix on the MGR gas ranges common in the older Martinez kitchens.

Can you work in a tight downtown laundry closet?

Yes. A lot of the older Martinez homes have washers and dryers crammed into closets and back porches. We bring the tools to pull and re-set a Bravos or Centennial in tight space without tearing up the floor or the doorway.

Maytag in Martinez

Maytag in Martinez kitchens.

Martinez is the county seat, and the housing tells two stories. Downtown and the older neighborhoods off Alhambra Avenue are Victorian and Craftsman, retrofitted over the decades with mainstream appliances. Vine Hill, Mountain View, and Virginia Hills add mid-century ranch. The badge mix runs GE, LG, Whirlpool, and KitchenAid, and Maytag rides the Whirlpool platform, so the Bravos washers and Centennial dryers turn up in those retrofitted laundry rooms and back-porch setups all over the 94553 flats.

Old houses mean tight laundry closets and appliances that have been moved and re-plumbed more than once. Bravos washers fail at the lid switch and then the gearbox bearing. Centennial dryers go at the drum glides and the belt. On the cooking side, Maytag MGR gas ranges drop surface igniters, which is the common call in a Craftsman kitchen running a gas line. Out in Alhambra Valley the lots get bigger and the kitchens run Sub-Zero, Wolf, and Bosch, so the Maytag work concentrates in town.

Water and ice systems

The water inlet valve, a common fridge leak.

Every fridge with a dispenser or ice maker has a water inlet valve. The fittings can leak under the cabinet, or the solenoid fails and the dispenser and ice maker stop getting water.

What the work looks like

A dishwasher leaking from the pump and sump.

The base of a Whirlpool-family dishwasher, where the circulation pump, sump, and diverter live. A worn pump seal, a cracked sump, or the diverter lets water past and onto the floor.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

MGR gas range surface igniter. Burner clicks and won't light, or lights slow and weak. The surface igniter is the usual failure on the gas line. First-visit fix.
Bravos lid switch and gearbox. Lid switch is a quick no-start fix. When the spin howls and the basket wobbles, that's the gearbox bearing and spider, quoted as the full job.
Centennial dryer glide-and-belt kit. Drum drags and the belt slips. We replace glides, belt, and idler pulley together in one visit so we're not back in a month.
Top-freezer defrost thermostat. MRT and MFI fridges warm with a frosted freezer when the defrost thermostat fails. Cheap part, thirty-minute swap, on the truck.
