How we operate
Five technicians, factory trained on the common brands
Northgate has been repairing appliances across the Pittsburgh area since 2009. Our technicians are factory trained on Whirlpool, GE, LG, Samsung, and Bosch, and the vans carry the parts that fail most often so seven in ten calls finish on the first visit. When a repair costs more than half of what a replacement would, we say so and let you decide.
•Flat $85 diagnostic, waived when you approve the repair
•One year warranty covering both parts and labor
•Two hour arrival windows with a text when we are on the way

FAQ
Repair questions
Is it worth repairing or should I replace it?
Our rule of thumb is the fifty percent test: if the repair costs more than half of a comparable new unit and the appliance is past two thirds of its expected life, replacement usually wins. We give you both numbers before you decide, and we do not earn anything from telling you to replace.
What does the $85 diagnostic cover?
It covers the trip and the time to identify the failure and quote the repair. If you approve the work, the $85 comes off the total, so the diagnostic is only ever a standalone cost when you decide not to proceed.
Do you carry parts on the truck?
Yes, the common failure parts for major brands, which is why about seventy percent of calls finish on the first visit. Special order parts typically arrive in two to four business days and we schedule the return visit before we leave.
Do you work on appliances still under warranty?
We can, but check with your manufacturer first, since a covered repair through their authorized servicer costs you nothing. If they are weeks out and you need it now, we will do the work and give you an itemized invoice to submit.
