Save Money

Saving money is a great motivator and appliance repair is going to help you save a lot. When you choose Viking appliance repair services, not only are they are affordable, but we can restore your appliances to like-new condition, too. When you consider the cost of new appliances compared to the cost of repair, you can see how much money there is to save. The average new refrigerator, without all the bells and whistles, will cost around $1,000. Repairing your current refrigerator can cost a fraction of that new refrigerator's price. Investing in appliance repair is an easy way to save. With your savings, you can fix up multiple appliances or parts of your home, if need be, rather than going all-in on one singular appliance.

Protect the Environment

Repairing your appliances makes perfect sense if you want to protect the environment. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, about 5.1 million tons of appliances reach landfills every year. Only 2.1 million tons of ferrous metals from appliances are recycled. That is a lot of waste sitting in landfills, leaching contaminants into the earth. Of course, repairing appliances not only keeps waste out of the landfills but also helps to cut down on the production of new appliances which can generate pollutants. The savings for the environment are multilayered when you choose to repair instead of replacing your appliances.

A Balanced Approach

There is a rule of thumb when it comes to deciding if a repair or replacement is the right choice. If the cost of the repair is 50% or more than the cost of replacement, then you may want to replace it. On the other hand, if a replacement is 100% or more than the cost of a repair, you should repair the appliance. For example, if a repair will cost you $300 and a replacement $1,500, go with the repair.
