“Sam is what the world needs more of. He could have tried to up-sell me or get me to buy a new unit. But instead, he was honest and very professional. Do yourself a favor and just call Sam. No other company will treat you like Sam will.”

“This will be an odd review because I did not have any repairs done. After discussing my issue with Sam, he advised me to seek a warranty repair. I had no idea it was still under warranty — I got the repair done for free. This just shows you what kind of business this is!”

“Had everything he needed to fix the problems with our washing machine. Very courteous, professional and very quickly repaired the washer. Dealing with a real person and not some ‘robot’ is always easier to communicate with and get the best results.”

Our Story

Local Expertise.

Family Values.

Louisville Appliance Repair is a family-owned, independent service company based in Louisville, Ohio. Our founder has been repairing appliances in Stark County since 2018 — building one of the area’s first technician-led independent repair businesses from scratch, completing 5,000+ repairs across every major brand and appliance type, including jobs other servicers wouldn’t take.

Before relaunching independently in 2025, he spent three years managing the service department at a regional multi-brand appliance dealer — overseeing 35–50 calls per day, growing the team from 3 to 6 technicians, and handling factory warranty work across every major manufacturer. That hands-on experience with manufacturer systems and parts is what makes the difference on difficult jobs.

Louisville Appliance Repair currently runs an 85–90% first-call complete rate — meaning most repairs are finished in a single visit. Most appliance repair companies diagnose on the first visit, order parts, then return — two trips minimum by design. We arrive prepared, with the most likely parts already on the truck, because we’ve seen these failures before.
