Top Appliances related questions

Most appliance technicians will come to your home or business at an arranged time to install or repair your appliances. They’ll bring any tools and parts needed to complete your job.
Whitegoods, like washing machines and fridges, are some of the most common household appliances technicians work with. But you can also hire them to help with air conditioning units, security cameras, ovens, and TVs.
If you need an appliance repaired, book your service as soon as you notice a problem. Ignoring it could make matters worse. Alternatively, some appliances can benefit from regular servicing to ensure they’re clean and functioning smoothly. Depending on your appliance type, how it’s used, and how old it is, you might book an appliance service every 1-5 years.
Yes, because your appliance technician is likely to be working with electrical items, they should hold a Certificate III in Appliance Service or an equivalent qualification that allows them to work with electrical and refrigeration items.
Some appliance services, like plumbing in a washing machine or mounting a clothes dryer, can be done in half an hour or less. More complicated jobs involving electrical faults or replacing broken parts may take an hour or more.
It costs between $80-$180 to hire an appliance technician on Airtasker, but it could cost more or less than this. Your technician will give you a quote based on details like the complexity of the job and any replacement parts needed.
For certain types of tasks, you may need someone who has a specialist licence and also additional insurance. Please make sure that you confirm that a Tasker has the relevant certificate or licence and insurance before accepting an offer.

What do appliance services include?

To install or repair your items, an appliance technician will visit your home or property. The exact inclusions with your appliance service will depend on the item you need to be installed or repaired. Here are some of the most popular appliance care services and what you can expect when booking your technician:

Fridges and freezers

You’ll need to book fridge repairs and installations if you need a complex fridge or freezer installation or it isn’t cooling properly, makes weird noises, or leaks. Your appliance technician can help with quick fixes like fridge door repairs (so it shuts properly and keeps the cold in) through to more serious issues with the thermostat, motor, or refrigeration gasses. Before they arrive, you’ll need to remove food and store it in a cool box or bag. To work safely on your fridge or freezer, your technician will turn off the electricity. Then they’ll fix or install your item using appliance-friendly tools, like screwdrivers, cleaning brushes, ratchets, or a refrigeration manifold gauge (to check the gas pressure and flow). When the service is complete they’ll turn your fridge or freezer back on and let you know when you can start using it again.   

Ovens and stoves

Appliance technicians have the skills to work on a range of oven repair and installation tasks in both domestic and commercial kitchens. Common appliance care services are gas oven installation, microwave repair, rangehood installation, and electric stove connections. Your licenced electrician or gas fitter will troubleshoot the problem according to your oven’s instructions. When they know what the problem is, they’ll turn off the gas or electricity and work to fix or install your item. If you’ve got a new oven or stovetop for installation and need the old one taken away, your appliance service might be able to help with this, as well.

Dishwasher repairs and installations

An appliance technician will plumb in your dishwasher and, if requested, take your old one to the tip. Already got a dishwasher, but it’s playing up? Common problems include dishes are coming out dirty, an electrical fault causing the cycle to cut short (or go on too long), or your dishwashers not draining. You can hire a dishwasher technician to help get it fixed and running smoothly again.

Washing machines and dryers

A professional installation of your washing machine or dryer protects against faults - ensuring everything is level and properly filling and draining. But it’s still possible for your machine to break down - electrical errors can stop cycles from finishing or a dodgy door might hold your clothes to ransom. A washing machine technician will plumb-in in and service your washer or dryer correctly, so you don’t have to worry. And if you’ve got an old machine you want rid of, you can request a washing machine removal service, too. In some cases your technician may strip the old machine for parts or recondition it, which may lower the cost of your job.

Appliance installations

As well as white goods, appliance technicians can install and repair other electrical systems. Get help with security camera systems, install an electric garage door, or even get your electrical gym equipment set up. They’ll use the right tools and equipment to properly install your appliance and ensure it’s working smoothly, and that you know how to operate it.

Garage Roller Door Service (Remote Controlled)

$100

Elsternwick VIC, Australia

18th May 2024

My garage roller door isn’t working when I press the button to activate it. When the button is pressed, you can hear the motor turning - sounds like the chain might have come off the guide. I have a controller with two buttons, one for the door and unsure what the other button does. Hoping it’s a simple task. Access to the rolling mechanism is from the garage roof and unsure how to get to the mechanism easily so tools might be required. If a complex job, diagnosis and discussion of cost will be required. Any further questions, please let me know.

Diagnosed situation very quickly and identified what needed fixing. Very prompt in coming out to site too on a Sunday.
