Lafayette is a hill town. Will you actually make the window up in Reliez Valley?

Yes. Lafayette is a planned Diablo Valley route stop most days, 25 to 30 minutes from San Ramon on 680. We block these calls so we run tight and hit our arrival times, and you get that time in writing before we head out.

My older Whirlpool oven runs cold and the bake element looks fine. What now?

If the element is intact but the oven won't hold temp, it's usually the oven temp sensor drifting out of range, common on the WFE ranges in the Burton Valley homes. We meter the sensor cold against spec before we replace anything.

Is it worth fixing a 12-year-old Cabrio or should I replace it?

Depends on what failed. A lid switch or a single bearing is worth the repair. A seized gearbox plus a worn bearing on a 12-year machine, I'll tell you straight it's a replace. We quote both before you decide. Diagnostic is $75, waived with the repair.

Whirlpool in Lafayette

Whirlpool in Lafayette kitchens.

Happy Valley and Reliez Valley up in the 94549 hills run Sub-Zero and Wolf in the main kitchen, so that is not where the Whirlpool calls come from. We see Whirlpool in two places in Lafayette. First, the laundry room, where a Cabrio top-loader and a WED or WGD dryer sit regardless of how the kitchen was specced. Second, the older Burton Valley homes and the streets south of Mt. Diablo Boulevard, where earlier remodel cycles put in Whirlpool ranges, fridges, and dishwashers that are now well into their service window.

The Cabrio is the steady one. Gearbox bearing grinds on spin, lid switch quits, tub stops agitating. It rides the same platform as the Maytag Bravos, same diagnosis underneath the badge. On the dryer side, the thermal fuse blows when the vent run hasn't been cleared in three years, common in these older homes with long duct routes to the eave. We clear the venting before the fuse goes back in. Whirlpool WFE and WFG ranges in the Burton Valley kitchens fail at the bake element and the gas surface igniter, both stocked, both one visit.

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.

Cabrio gearbox bearing and lid-switch failure. Grinding spin or no agitation. Same platform as the Maytag Bravos, one diagnostic playbook.
WGD/WED dryer thermal fuse with vent clearing. No heat. Long duct runs in older Lafayette homes clog. We clear the vent first or the new fuse blows again.
WFE bake element and WFG surface igniter. Oven won't heat or a gas burner won't light. Both parts stocked, single visit.
WDF/WDT dishwasher recirc pump. Dishes come out dirty, motor hums or stalls. We run the panel diagnostic mode before condemning the control board.
