Get matched with top oven or stovetop repair or service pros in Fairfax, VA

"Fully repaired and parts replaced. Very professional and competent service. Recommended"

"I originally bought a new microwave at Home Depot. When the installers arrived at my house, they found that the space I had for the installation was 1 inch too short for the microwave I had purchased, so they said could not install the oven. I returned it (and as of today, am still waiting for my payment to be refunded, a week later). The problem is that the area behind my stove is tiled so the OTR microwave had to fit exactly into the space I have. When I explained that to the salesperson at Home Depot when I returned there to buy a replacement oven, he said he had never heard of tile being installed behind a range before. Huh?
After exhaustive internet research and consultation with friends to figure out how to get the right sized microwave, I knew I’d have to go to real professionals. I found Sterling Appliance here on Angie’s List, and they’re right down the road from where I live. When I walked into the store and told the salesman that I had to fit the oven into a very precise space, his first comment was “Oh, you must have tile behind your range.” Bingo, I knew I was in the right place. Not only was I able to buy a high quality GE microwave that was a and frac12; inch too big for my space (instead of the low quality Sharp oven which was the only make/model available in the exact size I needed), but Sterling also said they would do a custom-install, at no additional cost, using a shim to fit the oven into the space I had available for it. Double bingo.
The installation crew showed up exactly on time. The oven they brought with them was damaged; the door was broken. Back to the warehouse for a new one, and a couple of hours later, I had the new microwave installed above my range.
And for reference, what I found is that there is little variation from store to store on the price of the ovens themselves (yes, there’
some, but I found it to be a non-factor in deciding). What really varies from place to place are the installation costs. So for the benefit of other Angie's List aficionados, here’s what I found:
Home Depot: $80 installation fee
Lowes: $130 installation fee
Sears: $180 installation fee
And Sterling Appliance? $120 installation fee. Great deal, highly recommend this place!

"A problematic old install made replacement hard, but they came so quickly and did the work so cleanly and efficiently. Helpful tips and low cost. Definitely using for any large or small appliance work!"

"Fast response and sent a pro out to investigate the problem. They listened to me when I described the problem and was highly positive about how to remedy that the igniter on the oven needed to be replaced. They made sure they had the part (via a picture I took) prior to the service tech coming over. Easy problem fast solution. Thanks!"

"This pro provided useful information via a virtual (online) video consultation. Since this service does not send technicians to the home, they did not do the actual work. I am considering whether to order parts and try to complete the repair myself or under their virtual direction."

"Worked on the stovetop because we were hearing a hissing sound. Spent a lot of time working hard and he answered our questions promptly. Highly recommend."

"Chad was very professional , friendly and on time. .My oven was not working (bad igniter ) and now it is. I would definitely hie him again."

"They successfully repaired the appliance."

"When I called for service, Mo called me back almost instantly. He came the next day and had my microwave repaired in 10 minutes. He had the needed parts on his truck and was ready to get the job done. If I need help again I will definitely call for Mo."

"Tech attempted to repair and determined unit needed to be replaced. I seleccted aa different vendor for the replacement."
