SCREW DRIVER: At minimum, you'll need a Philips Head #2 Screwdriver; this is the most common screw found in appliances. Some appliances, like microwaves, may have specialty screws, so a screwdriver with interchangeable heads is best.

virtual service FAQs

What is a Virtual Appointment?

A virtual appliance repair service is a type of appliance repair service that uses video conferencing technology to diagnose and repair appliances remotely. With virtual appliance repair services, customers can schedule an appointment with a technician who will walk them through the diagnostic process using video calls. The technician will ask the customer questions about the appliance, provide instructions on how to troubleshoot the problem, and guide the customer through repairs if possible.

How Does it Work?

Using video conferencing technology, the technician can see and hear the appliance in real-time, which allows for more accurate diagnostics and repairs. Virtual appliance repair services eliminate the need for a technician to visit the customer’s home, which can save time and reduce costs associated with travel and transportation.

How Much Does it Cost?

Lake Appliance Repair’s virtual appliance repair service is priced at $59, which is significantly less than a typical in-person repair service. With traditional in-person repair services, costs can include not only labor but also travel expenses and other associated fees, which can quickly add up. In contrast, virtual appliance repair services eliminate many of these additional costs, which allows Lake Appliance Repair to offer their services at a lower price point.

What Do I Get For $59?

For our low $59 Virtual Appointment cost you will get:

– A certified trained technician to review your intake form, run your model and serial number through several subscription based databases to check for manufacturer recalls, service bulletins, and otherwise known problems.

– Our professional technician will call you at the time of your appointment and ask you additional questions if necessary and ask to be shown your appliance. He may walk you through a few tests to gain the knowledge needed to base his professional diagnosis.

– The technician will provide an expert opinion for your next steps which may include suggestion of possible part replacement, or he may determine due to the age and condition of the appliance it may not be worth your time and money; there is always a possibility he walks you through the appropriate steps that fixes the problem you were experiencing.

Where Does the Virtual Service Take Place?

Lake Appliance Repair’s virtual appliance repair service takes place using Google Meet, a popular video conferencing platform. Once a customer schedules an appointment for virtual appliance repair services, they will receive a link to join the virtual meeting via text message on their cell phone prior to the appointment time.

Google Meet is a reliable and secure video conferencing platform that provides a user-friendly interface for customers to join the virtual meeting. With Lake Appliance Repair’s virtual appliance repair service, customers can expect a seamless and efficient repair experience from the comfort of their own homes using a trusted video conferencing platform.

What Do I Need For A Successful Virtual Appointment?

To ensure a successful virtual appliance repair service, customers will need a smartphone with internet access, a flashlight, and the model and serial number of the appliance.

What Appliances Can Be Serviced With a Virtual Appointment?

Lake Appliance Repair’s virtual appliance repair services are available for all major household appliances, including refrigerators, dishwashers, ovens, ranges, washers, and dryers. The expert technicians at Lake Appliance Repair have the necessary knowledge and experience to diagnose and repair a wide range of issues for these appliances, all through the use of video calls.

Whether it’s a refrigerator that is not cooling properly or a dishwasher that is not cleaning dishes effectively, customers can expect to receive the same level of expert repair services that they would with traditional in-person repair services. With the convenience and flexibility of virtual appliance repair services, customers can easily have their appliances serviced from the comfort of their own homes, without the hassle of scheduling an in-person repair appointment.

What If the Repair is Too Complicated?

If we provide a diagnostic that you’re not comfortable completing on your own, no problem! Our technician will schedule an in-home appointment to complete the repair for you.

What is the Warranty of a Virtual Appointment?

As a virtual appliance repair service provider, we aim to provide high-quality services to our customers. However, we do not offer any warranty for the work or diagnosis made by our virtual technician as we are not able to conduct hands-on testing or repairs of the appliance ourself.

If you require a more guaranteed repair or diagnosis, we can arrange for an in-home service by one of our local trained technicians who can conduct a more thorough inspection of your appliance.
