Appliance repair near you in Stark County, Ohio

I’m Sam — a local, owner-operated appliance repair tech based in Louisville, Ohio. When you search “appliance repair near me” around Stark County, you’re looking for me. Same day or next day whenever possible.

Every major appliance, every make

I repair refrigerators, washers, dryers, dishwashers, stoves, ovens, and ranges — all the major brands, including the ones a lot of local shops won’t touch, like Samsung and LG. Pick your appliance for what usually goes wrong and how I fix it.

Brands I repair

Don’t see your brand? If it plugs into the wall or runs on gas, I can almost certainly diagnose it. Text or call me at (330) 693-9163.

How I work

You deal with me directly, start to finish — no call center, no rotating techs. I show up prepared with the parts your appliance is likely to need, which is why about 85 to 90 percent of my repairs are done in a single visit.

I diagnose before I touch anything, explain what’s wrong in plain terms, and I’m repair-first: the best appliance is usually the one already in your home. If something truly isn’t worth fixing, I’ll tell you honestly. Every repair I complete is backed by my 6-month labor warranty.

Towns I cover

Home base is Louisville, Ohio, in Stark County, and I reach about 25 miles in most directions — into Summit, Portage, Mahoning, Columbiana, and Carroll counties. Not sure if you’re in range? See my full service area or just text me your town.

Quick answers before you call

Why isn’t my dryer heating?

Most no-heat dryers come down to airflow or the heat circuit — a clogged lint path or vent, a blown thermal fuse, a failed heating element, or a tripped high-limit thermostat. I test the whole heat circuit and the airflow path together, not just the obvious part.

Why is my refrigerator not cooling?

A fridge that runs but won’t cool usually points to the defrost system, the evaporator fan, a dirty or failing condenser, or a sealed-system issue. If the freezer is cold but the fresh-food side is warm, it’s almost always the evaporator fan or defrost. I check all of it before replacing anything.

Why won’t my washer drain?

Water left in the drum usually means a clogged pump filter, a failed drain pump, a kinked or blocked drain hose, or a lid/door switch that’s stopping the spin. Most drain issues I can clear in one visit.

Should I repair it or replace it?

Usually repair — especially on a machine that’s in good shape overall. A single failed part is almost always cheaper than buying, waiting for, and learning a whole new appliance. I’ll always compare against a new replacement, never a used one, and give you a straight answer.
