1. Error Troubleshooting Service
Our technicians are trained to interpret error codes from all major appliance brands including Samsung, LG, Bosch, Whirlpool, Beko, Siemens, Electrolux, and many others. We use advanced diagnostic tools to read error codes accurately and determine whether the issue is related to sensors, control boards, mechanical components, or electrical systems.
Common Error Codes include;
- washing machines – drainage errors, door lock failures, water inlet problems, and motor malfunctions.
- Refrigerators – temperature sensor failures, defrost system errors, ice maker malfunctions, and compressor problems.
- Dishwashers – water heating failures, pump issues, and spray arm blockages.
- Ovens and cookers – heating element failures, thermostat errors, and control panel malfunctions.
Error Troubleshooting Service Costs
| Service Type | Cost Range (Ksh) | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Basic Error Code Reading | 500 – 800 | 30 minutes |

“Did you know? Approximately 60% of appliance error codes can be resolved without replacing major components. Many issues are related to sensors, connections, or software glitches that experienced technicians can fix quickly and affordably.”
2. Appliance Fault Diagnosis Services
Not all appliance problems display error codes. Sometimes appliances simply stop working, make unusual noises, or perform poorly without any clear indication of what’s wrong. We perform visual inspections to check for obvious signs of damage, wear, or component failure. Using multimeters, pressure gauges, thermometers, and other specialized tools, we test various components and systems within your appliance.
What We Diagnose
Our technicians can diagnose mechanical failures such as broken belts, worn bearings, damaged motors, and faulty pumps. We identify electrical problems including wiring issues, circuit board failures, switch malfunctions, and power supply problems. Plumbing-related issues in washing machines and dishwashers, such as clogged hoses, valve failures, and drainage problems, are also within our diagnostic capabilities. We also diagnose refrigeration system problems like refrigerant leaks, compressor failures, and thermostat malfunctions.
Fault Diagnosis Service Costs
| Service Type | Cost Range (Ksh) | Appliance Type |
|---|---|---|
| Small Appliance Diagnosis | 500 – 1,000 | Microwaves, blenders, toasters |
| Medium Appliance Diagnosis | 1,000 – 2,000 | Washing machines, dishwashers |
| Large Appliance Diagnosis | 1,500 – 2,500 | Refrigerators, cookers, dryers |
| Complex System Diagnosis | 2,500 – 4,000 | Built-in appliances, commercial units |
| Pre-Purchase Inspection | 1,500 – 3,000 | Any appliance type |
“Industry insight: Professional fault diagnosis can save you hundreds or even thousands of shillings by preventing unnecessary part replacements. About 30% of DIY repair attempts fail because the actual problem was never correctly identified.”
3. Appliance Maintenance Services
Well-maintained appliances last significantly longer than neglected ones. Regular maintenance can extend your appliance’s life by 40-50%, reduce energy consumption by up to 25%, prevent up to 80% of common breakdowns, and maintain warranty coverage that often requires proof of regular maintenance.
Our Maintenance Services Include;
- refrigerators and freezers – we clean condenser coils, check and adjust temperature settings, inspect door seals and gaskets, test defrost systems, and clean drainage systems.
- Washing machines – cleaning filters and lint traps, inspecting hoses for cracks or bulges, checking drum bearings and belts, testing water inlet valves, and descaling internal components.
- Dishwasher – cleaning spray arms and filters, inspecting door seals, testing heating elements, checking drain pumps, and descaling interior components.
- Ovens and cookers – we clean heating elements, calibrate thermostats, inspect gas connections and safety valves, clean ventilation systems, and test control panels.
For heavy-use households with large families or frequent appliance use, we recommend maintenance every 3-6 months.
Standard households with average usage should schedule maintenance every 6-12 months.
Light-use households or vacation properties need maintenance annually or bi-annually.
Commercial establishments require monthly or quarterly maintenance depending on usage intensity.
Appliance Maintenance Service Costs
| Service Type | Cost Range (Ksh) | Frequency Recommended |
|---|---|---|
| Basic Appliance Cleaning & Inspection | 1,000 – 2,000 | Every 6 months |
