So, it is a big deal when they suddenly or gradually break down. You can always call Maydone for 24/7 repairs in the Greater Toronto Area, but there are also other tricks you can try. 

Unplug and reset

Turning an appliance on and off can seem like a basic tip but it often works, sometimes we overwork the appliances and the machinery needs to cool and restart in order to work properly again. This can work in cases where the appliances are hot and powered off or even smoke came of it. Turn it off, unplug, let it sit, and try to restart after a few hours. 

Check Your Appliance Manual 

Before calling the experts take a look at your appliance’s manual, it can provide a clue on what to do about your particular problem. You could save yourself a headache by just glimpsing in there to see if you can solve the issue on your own.

It helps to keep all manual organized in one place.

  • This is the second time I’ve used their services, and both time was helped by Alex. He was incredibly thorough, punctual and incredibly diligent. He went above and beyond and even fixed a wobbly door under my sink. It’s always a pleasure to find a reliable and efficient service, and I would absolutely use Alex in the future!

  • Working in a veterinary clinic - we understandably go through a lot of laundry. Our washer was out of commission and within a very short period of time, Igor not only diagnosed the problem but had it fixed. He was efficient and easy to work with.

  • When it comes to repairs you want professional, experienced contractors and on top of the problem you have. Maydone has it all. We worked with Alex (we highly recommend you ask for him) who was on time, polite, does the job, very neat and professional.

  • Contacted them late in the day and got a response first thing in the morning. Techinicians came the following day, showed up on time and repaired it quickly. Wouldn't hesitate to contact them again in the future.
