About us

In most cases and appliance repair is a process. More often than not, an appliance may have to be taken apart to diagnose it properly. We don't just stand there and look at your appliance and tell you what "might be" wrong with it. We take the time to take the appliance apart, diagnose it properly and give you an explanation of why and how the appliance started acting up. Sometimes the appliance can be fixed the same day, but more often than not a part will have to be ordered and a return visit will be warranted. So generally how it works is this, it's $99 per appliance to come out and diagnose the problem and give you an estimate for the repair. We offer a automatic 1 year parts and labor warranty on replacement parts. We don't order parts from websites. We order all our replacement parts from reputable parts suppliers so we can warranty the original OEM parts installed.

Justin responded immediately to my post. It was clear in our conversation that he had experience with the problem in our refrigerator. He ceased available the next day and finished the complex job that day. He worked hard and nonstop to complete the job. By the time he left we had a working fridge! I highly recommend Justin.

In the past 6 months I have needed quick service due to water leaks. I found Appliance Forensics Northwest online. Both times Justin arrived within a 2 hour window. He is responsive, professional and experienced. He answers my questions and he is fairly priced. I recommend Justin to anyone needing fast efficient appliance repair.

Justin was easy to work with and did the best he could to fix an old gas cook stove. He was relaxed and followed through with expectations. He helped me to decide which route to take in terms of keeping and repairing as opposed to getting a new stove.

Quick response, quick scheduling, quick diagnosis and quick repair. Much cheaper than buying a new machine, and we’re glad to save our machine from the landfill. Props to Justin for going above and beyond to answer our questions, and thrilled that the final price came in below the over-the-phone estimate. Thanks, Justin!

As advertised. $99 to come out for a diagnostic, research for cost of parts and an estimate. We ended up getting a new unit from the landlord, but would have gladly hired them to repair otherwise

Justin was my technician who not only provided a high level of customer service but was willing to follow up with me once the part arrived to my home. He respects Veteran's and did a great job in repairing the washer and making it easy for my family. I would highly recommend him and the company he represents.

Did not communicate very well with updates on when to expect the next appointment but diagnosed the problem quickly and repaired it quick as well.
Response from Appliance Forensics Northwest
"At Appliance Forensics Northwest we do are best to communicate with every customer. We do tell customers if there is a part that needs to be ordered that we will call them when the parts arrive to set up next visit due to shipping time variances."

He charged me $109. for the visit, said it needed a new motor for the ice dispenser and that the floor on the freezer needed to be replaced. The estimate was $800. My son looked at it and the auger to move the ice needed adjusting and he bought a spring for the water dispenser and it is working perfectly.
Response from Appliance Forensics Northwest
"This refrigerator had 3 different issues. A leak coming from a frozen drain line of the freezer evaporator, a broken ice dispenser mechanism and a worn auger motor for the ice maker. This has nothing to do with a freezer floor, it is virtually impossible to replace a freezer floor. This individual obviously has no idea about the parts cost or the labor involved to replace and fix all this so yes the labor would be high in this situation, but if they are **claiming** they fixed all that themselves which is highly unlikely, then more power to them. A service call is charged in all initial visits for the diagnosis and is nonrefundable, BUT the ser..."
