WHY EMC
APPLIANCE REPAIR WITHOUT THE RUNAROUND
A dead appliance is usually a bad part, a bad connection, or a bad circuit. EMC checks all three in one visit — appliance-repair training plus a licensed electrician on the same truck.

CALL US IF YOU SEE
APPLIANCE REPAIR WARNING SIGNS
- A fridge or freezer that's running nonstop, or not getting cold at all.
- A dryer that takes two or three cycles to actually dry a load, or runs hot to the touch.
- A washer that won't spin, won't drain, or leaks onto the floor.
- An electric range, oven, or cooktop with a burner or element that won't heat.
- The breaker trips every time one specific appliance runs — that could be the appliance or the circuit feeding it.
NO RUNAROUND
HOW IT WORKS WITH EMC
- 01
Call it in
Tell us the appliance and what it's doing. Same-week service is normal; same-day may be available — call.
- 02
Diagnose first
A real inspection, not a guess — including a check of the outlet or circuit feeding it, since sometimes that's the actual problem.
- 03
Straight numbers
Repair cost weighed against a new unit, explained plainly — no push toward replacement just because it's the bigger ticket.
- 04
Fix it or explain why not
Repaired the same visit when the parts and scope allow it; if it's not worth fixing, you hear that too.

THE WORK
APPLIANCE REPAIR SERVICES
Diagnose-first pricing
Honest assessment: when a repair is not worth it against replacement, we tell you.
Details: Diagnose-first pricing →
Refrigerators and freezers
Not cooling, running nonstop, ice maker dead, water pooling underneath — diagnosed and repaired, refrigerant work included under EPA 608 Universal certification.
Details: Refrigerators and freezers → Washers and dryers
Won't spin, won't drain, no heat, a cycle that never seems to finish — plus the dryer vent itself, a real fire risk when it's been ignored in an old triple-decker for years.
Details: Washers and dryers → Ranges, ovens and cooktops
Electric only — dead burners, an oven that won't hold temperature, a control board gone haywire. Gas ranges and gas line work go to a licensed gasfitter, not EMC.
Details: Ranges, ovens and cooktops →
Dishwashers and disposals
Not draining, not cleaning, a disposal that hums but will not turn — fixed, or explained honestly if it is not worth fixing. Supply and drain plumbing is a plumber's job; we tell you which trade you actually need.

COMMON QUESTIONS
What happens when you arrive?
We diagnose the machine and the circuit it is on, explain the fault in plain words, and give you the repair price — or a straight answer if it is not worth fixing — before any work starts.
Is it the appliance or the wiring?
Sometimes a "broken" appliance is a failing circuit. Because EMC is both a certified appliance tech and a licensed electrician, one visit answers it either way.
Do you repair gas ranges or gas dryers?
No. Gas appliance and gas line work require a licensed gasfitter, which is outside EMC's scope. EMC repairs electric ranges, ovens, cooktops, and dryers.
What if the repair isn't worth it?
We tell you. Diagnose-first pricing means a straight comparison of repair cost against a new unit before any work starts — not a push toward the bigger-ticket option.
Are you certified to work on refrigerant?
Yes. EMC holds an EPA 608 Universal certification, the broadest level, covering legal refrigerant handling on refrigerators, freezers, and similar equipment.
Do you check the dryer vent, or just the dryer?
Both. A dryer that runs long and hot is often a vent problem, not a machine problem — common in older Boston triple-deckers with long or crushed vent runs.
How fast can you get out?
Same-week service is normal. Same-day may be available depending on the day — call and ask.
Need Electrical or Contracting Service?
One call covers the wiring, the heat, and the whole remodel — licensed, insured, and based right here in Greater Boston.
