Who's paying for this?

Tell Erick which one fits when you book. Each kind of call gets its own paperwork, so nobody gets a surprise bill.

Home warranty call

Some plans send their own contractor. Others let you pick a tech and pay you back. If yours lets you choose, Erick gives you the documents most plans ask for: model and serial, error codes, the diagnosis, photos, the parts needed and an itemized invoice. Anything your plan won't cover is quoted to you before work starts.

Manufacturer warranty call

Erick is independent, so most manufacturers won't pay for his visit. Have your receipt or purchase date ready and he'll tell you when the manufacturer's own service line is the better call.

No warranty, you pay

The prices below. Diagnosis, written quote, your approval, then the repair, with an itemized invoice for your records.

How a visit goes

  1. First, you text

    Send the appliance, what it's doing and a photo of the model tag. You get a time window back.

    "Dryer runs but no heat. LG. Tag photo attached."

  2. Then the diagnosis

    Erick tests the machine, reads the error codes and finds the failed part.

    Error code, test results and the part number go on your ticket.

  3. A written quote

    Parts and labor, line by line. You approve it before any work begins.

    Approve it, decline it, or have the part ordered.

  4. The repair

    Erick carries common parts. Special orders mean a second visit.

    He runs a test cycle before he packs up.

  5. The paperwork

    An itemized invoice, marked paid, plus the documents your warranty plan asks for.

    You keep the invoice, the diagnosis and the part numbers.

A note from Erick

I'm Erick Haro, and this is my business. When you call, you get me. I'm the one who comes out, finds the problem and fixes it.

I started Haro Appliance Repairs because people around here deserve a straight answer: what's wrong, what it costs, and whether it's worth fixing at all.

If you have a home warranty, I'll give you clean paperwork for your claim. If you're paying yourself, you'll see the price before I touch anything.

Text me a photo of the model tag and tell me what it's doing. I'll text you back with a time window.
