Solon Appliance Repair
Solon is roughly a half-hour drive from our Parma base. An early weekday request often gets a technician out to you the same day.
One discount per visit. Mention it when you book.
Solon grew later than the older suburbs closer to Cleveland. Going by Census figures half its homes were built in 1980 or after, and only about one in six is rented. In practice that means a lot of owner-occupied houses where the original builder appliances got replaced once already, and the replacements are now hitting the age where things start to break.
That's often a good age to repair rather than replace. A ten or twelve year old washer usually needs one part, not a new life. Our technician tracks down the actual fault and gives you a single price for the job, and you decide from there. If it doesn't make sense to fix, we'll tell you plainly.
Laundry that runs every single day
Close to four in ten Solon households have kids at home, per the 2020 census. Machines in those houses work hard, and the wear shows up in a few predictable places.
Front-loaders that smell or stall
Daily loads leave detergent sludge in the rubber boot and lint in the pump filter. Clean both once a month and a lot of drain codes simply never show up.
Dryers worn at the rollers
A squeal or a thump every turn usually means drum rollers or the idler pulley. Cheap parts, but keep running it and the belt or the motor tends to go next.
Suspension on top-loaders
Overloaded tubs knock the suspension rods loose, and then the washer walks across the floor on spin. That fix rarely takes long.
A dishwasher that runs twice a day
Filters clog quicker with that many loads. Twist out the filter cylinder and rinse it under the tap before you call us. Sometimes that's the whole fix.
The smelly washer guide and how to make a washer last longer both help between visits.
Upstairs laundry and the ceiling below it
Houses built in the eighties and later often moved the laundry up near the bedrooms, and that's great right up until a hose lets go. A leak upstairs doesn't sit on a concrete floor. It finds the ceiling of the room underneath. If you spot a water stain under the laundry room, shut off the valves behind the washer first and call us second.
Most of these leaks come from three places we check every time. The fill hoses age out and crack near the fittings. A front-loader's door boot can tear along the bottom fold. The drain hose sometimes slips out of the standpipe on a hard spin. Each of those is a quick part, and a drain pan with its own line is worth asking your plumber about if you don't have one.
Swap rubber fill hoses for braided steel ones every five years or so. They cost little and they're the cheapest insurance against a wet ceiling.
Fix the fridge or buy a new one
Built-in and counter-depth refrigerators are common in remodeled kitchens, and they cost a lot to replace, so the math leans toward repair more often than with a basic fridge.
A dead evaporator fan or a failed defrost heater. An ice maker that stopped filling. A control board on a fridge that's still under fifteen years old. The cabinet and the sealed system are fine, so a part brings it back.
A compressor that won't start on an older unit, or a refrigerant leak in the walls of the cabinet. Those repairs can get close to the price of a new one, and we'll say so before you commit.
More detail on refrigerator repair and on Sub-Zero built-ins is on their own pages.
Kitchens at Solon businesses
Solon is a real business town with employers like Swagelok and Nestlé Prepared Foods. Workplaces that size usually keep a break room or a cafeteria going. We repair commercial refrigeration and ice machines and ovens as well, and we can come before or after your working hours.
Getting to 44139
From Parma we head east, roughly twenty miles and a little over half an hour when traffic is light. The whole city sits in one ZIP code (44139) and Bedford Heights and Chagrin Falls are on the same trip.
Out past Route 422 or near South Chagrin Reservation, it makes no difference to us.

Do you cover all of Solon?
Yes, the whole 44139 ZIP code. That includes the streets out near the Geauga County line and the area around South Chagrin Reservation.
My upstairs washer leaked through the ceiling. What first?
Turn the two water valves off and pull the plug. Then towel up what you can and call us. We'll find out whether it's a hose, the door boot or the drain before anything else gets damaged.
Is a 12 year old washer worth repairing in Solon?
Usually yes, if the tub and the bearings are sound. Pumps and door locks and belts are reasonable repairs at that age. Once a quote creeps toward half of what a new washer costs, you hear that from the technician first.
Do you repair built-in refrigerators like Sub-Zero?
We do, right where they're installed. Mention the brand as you book, which lets us load the right parts and floor covers.
How soon can you get to Solon?
It's about 31 minutes from Parma on an empty road. Requests on a weekday morning often get a visit that afternoon.
Do you fix appliances for Solon businesses?
Yes. Break room fridges and ice machines, commercial ovens and laundry equipment. We schedule around your hours.
Tell us the appliance and the problem. For built-ins, add the brand and model if you have it handy.
We will call you shortly to confirm a time for your repair.
