Roy was a pleasure to work with. He helped us with a leaking valve on our Washing Machine, and with a blown inverter on our Fridge.

Both times he was on-time, quickly gave us a clear, honest assessment of the issue, and fixed it in a timely way.

Very professional, tidy, and easy to work with. Would recommend him highly for any appliance issues.

I will have to wait and see if the parts hold up before adding “Good Quality”. Roy was early for the appointment, very polite, showed me what was wrong with the washing machine so I knew he was an honest repair man. Had the part on hand to fix the machine, started it up and waited to ensure it was working without leaks, showed me the repair, and was done within an hour I think. I believe the price was very reasonable. Also pointed out a potential problem waiting to happen with the plumbing and suggested I have someone in before it becomes a major issue. I will keep his contact info on hand and will not hesitate to call him again or recommend him to others.

He returns my call/voice message almost immediately, very responsive and confirmed appointment quickly, arrived early and finished fixing within an hour. Very professional, I couldn’t be more happier with my dishwasher repair. He went on and explained in details how he fixed, how to maintain, overall he’s really passionate about this work. I saved his number and will definitely call him again if I need any appliance repair later on.

Roy was quick to respond. Identified the frozen drain line in my fridge Cleaned it out and showed me what to do if it happens again. Super friendly and extremely helpful. Will use his services again.
01 April 2023 13:55
I work for an apartment building in downtown London and whenever we have an issue we call Better General. The owner is always quick to respond and always friendly and on time. Rain or shine if Roy tells you he will be there, he will be there. By far our most professional 3rd party company we use for business. I highly recommend Better General.
01 January 2023 15:45
The repairman was friendly, yet professional. Our gas dryer was very old, but thankfully, fixable. Thank you Roy. You made our day.
06 December 2022 23:44
Very pleased with experience with Roy. Prompt, knowledgeable, fixed the issue and offered helpful tips to keep machine is top condition. Price fair! Have already set him up for another job for family member.
29 November 2022 3:16
Recently had a fridge that stopped working on Friday before Homecoming weekend. Roy promptly arrived in only 3hrs after my call and quickly diagnosed and fixed the problem within 30min. Also provided advice on maintenance and preventative measures. Perfection.:)
05 November 2022 8:12
He was great. I called him in the evening and he arrived early the next morning to repair my oven, which I needed to bake a turkey for Thanksgiving. Quick, friendly service!
18 October 2022 9:09
Roy was quick and efficient. Arrived same day and was able to fix the problem with my stove. He saved Thanksgiving for us this weekend.
16 September 2022 20:57
Very knowledgeable, was able to diagnose the problem quickly and give advice. Would hire again!
01 September 2022 1:45
Very professional and responsive. We appreciated the quick service and follow-ups and quality repair work. Thank you!
31 July 2022 4:02
What a waste of money, waste of time. Had a washer issue, wasn't completing the cycle, Texted BGA he came out, ran the washer empty on spin rinse, said we were overloading the machine. Billed us $107.00 for a service call, E-TRANSFER ONLY. Come to find out behind the drum there are what are called "SPIDER LEGS" and with weight of wet clothes in the drum it doesn't let the machine finish the spin cycle, and because he did nothing other then take money for doing nothing we had to replace our washer. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND USING SOMEONE ELSE, SOMEONE REPUTABLE IF YOU NEED REPAIRS.
16 July 2022 14:45
I would highly recommend Roy and his business; he responded quickly to my call for help, he arrived on time, he was knowledgeable and professional. I felt like I was getting good value for my money. Thanks Roy!
18 June 2022 10:57
Roy was able come the very day of our call. He called to let us know at what time he would arrived. He quickly diagnosed the problem with our fridge. Tried a part he had in his truck, but no luck. The next day came back with the part and within minutes fixed our fridge. He also look ed a second fridge we have with a defective display panel. He inquired about replacement price and call back quickly to tell us the part was available although expensive, but that none of the other parts for that model were available anymore. He could have just have us pay for a new part and about but instead, he was very honest and recommended we not waste our money for the accessory. Roy is now our official repair guy. Thank you.
18 January 2022 9:06
The lights in our fridge weren't working, some were out completely, some were dim or blinking. Roy came to check it. Told us we needed to clean behind the fridge and turn it off for several days to reset itself. If that didn't work we would need a new motherboard for $800+. Told us we were better off to buy stick-on lights from Amazon.for a 6 year old fridge! Charged us for the service call for nothing but bad advice! We called another appliance service and they simply replaced the burned out light in the freezer (as they work in series) and all the lights in the fridge came on! Don't waste your money on this guy!
15 January 2022 4:03
Roy came to our new home to do a full installation of our Gas Cook Top and Dishwasher, he used quality parts and his work was done with the outmost care and professionalism. He is very knowledgeable and arrived on time. Thank you Roy.
06 January 2022 18:56
Roy helped us with our fridge. Was able to identify the issue quickly and even rebuilt the fan motor assembly on a Sunday for us. Great service.
26 December 2021 6:52
I had called/texted Roy and he responded within the same day and had set up an appointment as soon as possible for me. My dryer was making a loud squeaking noise and needed to be fixed. Roy came within the appointed time and was able to diagnose the problem. He was knowledgeable and professional, he cleaned the dryer and replaced the necessary parts and now the dryer is good as new again. I'm very happy and satisfied with his services and would highly recommend him to anyone who needs their gas dryers to be fixed. Thank you for your quick response and for fixing the dryer!:)
19 December 2021 9:59
Gas dryer was not heating properly. Repairman came and found main problem was with the venting. Suggested a service who came out and found a break in venting. This caused dryer to eventually breakdown. Dryer was repaired properly in a professional manner. Highly recommend this service for any appliance repairs.
24 November 2021 19:54
No show for appointment today. Now over 1 hour late. No calls, no text. Have now scheduled someone else to look at our appliance.
29 March 2021 2:54
Reached out to them as I have used them in the past for appliance repairs. Quick fix, quick responses and very professional.
24 March 2021 1:13
We were very afraid that our very old built in oven (35-40+years) would have to be replaced! Which because of it's odd size and position might of led to an untimely kitchen Reno!
Problem solved! With a creative and safe wiring solution and good for another 20 years (maybe). We were convinced that a less experienced Tech would of not been able to fix the problem because of it's age and we could of been out a lot of money.
We would highly recommend Better General Appliance and will use in future

WARNING - This business is Scamming customers for Service Call fees. Stated HST # is a fake. CRA has been informed.

My issue was with a washer-dryer combo (Laundry Centre). The dryer would not START so i called in the company to diagnose the problem. All he did was attempt to turn the START knob then manually tried rolling the drum. He then promptly concluded $700 worth of damage required repair / replacement. As a customer i dont feel that was a professional approach nor an accurate assessment of the problem. A $100 "Service" call for a 5 min superficial assessment. Sheesh. I'm seeing some other 1 star reviews here - I'm beginning to think this is some SCAM being pulled by Roy / Anh Thu Dang to get the required $100 service call fee but conclude the appliance is prohibitively expensive to repair. BEWARE!
07 March 2021 12:04
An excellent and professional experience. The service tech I dealt with was very patient and helpful. We mostly just had to text information back and forth. He was very helpful and upfront with what I had to do get my monster fridge going.
Again thanks for the help!
12 February 2021 0:44
Amazing guy, just got his info on the internet, I called him and he came immediately to check on my appliances. I recommend him
05 February 2021 22:38
The man who came to diagnose the dishwasher was rude and extremely unhelpful. He didn't even open the filter basket to diagnose the dishwasher and deemed it broken beyond repair, charging us a cool $85 +tax for this service.

I fixed the dishwasher later on. It needed a reset.

Absolutely disgusting. Do not waste your money.
11 January 2020 5:58
I called Roy and sent him a video of my washer, very honest person gave me a quick diagnose. I have called so many people and none had time this week, I called Roy and he didn't have time either but helped me over the phone.very friendly and efficient. We should have more people like him around.
05 January 2020 2:53
Everything from call to oven service i had a great great experience roy is a knowledgeable person who knows about appliance repairs.its been 3 months since roy came to fix my 5 year old oven.in 3 months i had no problem that's why i am recommending and reviewing this company.
01 January 2020 20:39
This was a great repair experience. Roy was quick to arrive (earlier than promised too), diagnosed the problem with the gas oven correctly and fixed it right away- he even had the part in his truck. He was efficient, polite and professional, and left no mess whatsoever behind. All in all, very pleased with the job done and will use him in the future when we need other appliances fixed! Thanks again Roy.
19 November 2019 0:14
Roy was very prompt for my appt.although he didn't have the part handy, he made an appt for the next day and fixed my oven in no time. I would highly recommend this company for repair work
15 November 2019 10:50
The repair man came ahead of time, fixed the problem very quickly and gave us great advice. Job well done!
27 October 2019 17:01
I bought some appliances and the delivery guys broke the waterline on the fridge. I waited a month for the repair, from someone else, and the salesperson finally called GENERAL APPLIANCE SERVICE who literally showed up within the hour to diagnose the problem & ordered the part.thanks Roy
23 September 2019 20:21
Roy is the absolute most competent and genuine repair guy i've ever met. He diagnosed my issue in 2 minutes flat and recommended maintenance for my dryer. Insanely good price, awesome guy and you'll get your repair done proficiently. Ignore all the bad reviews.
17 September 2019 23:14
We were very impressed with the service from Better Appliance Repair. Roy, the owner, attended our house and quickly identified the problem. He then gave us his unbiased advice on next steps moving forward.

Quick, responsive, and honest service. We could not expect anything more from a service technician.
02 September 2019 21:11
My dryer doesn't start. Roy came to check it. He simply shorted a resistor (DHT Resistor) and burnt the dryer. He almost started a fire in the house. Then, he quickly packed his stuff and charged me the service call and ran away. He simply told me to buy a new dryer!

Never deal with this guy, he knows nothing about fixing. All other reviews are most probably fake.
20 August 2019 10:06
Our fridge stopped working and I called Roy at 10 am. He was at my home by 12 and had the fridge fixed and working by 1 pm. He was very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. We were so impressed with his service and pricing that we intend to use him for any other service or repairs that come up in the future.
13 August 2019 3:48
Sent text Sunday night to BGAS regarding broken washer and received appointment for Monday morning @ 8am. Roy came on time with a smile. He diagnosed the problem within minutes and provided two options. He also found a potential issue with calcium deposit in main hot water line. The washer was repaired and working in less than an hour. Roy also provided valuable advice and experience on maintenance and proper balancing of washer.
The reviews I read prior to calling BGAS are bang on. Very efficient, knowledgeable, customer oriented and honest.
I will definitely call Roy again for Appliance service!
I highly recommend Better General Appliance Service
01 August 2019 16:55
I called Roy to have my fridge serviced and he was able to squeeze me in at the end of the day. Roy showed up and spent approximately 2 minutes diagnosing my fridge and told me that I need to clean the coil using Windex and scrubber, and proceeded to tell me if this didn't fix the issue I would be better off buying a new fridge then repairing the current one. He then left and charged me $100 for a 2 minute service call. I proceeded to do what Roy had told me and had no luck so I ended up giving the fridge away on Kijiji so someone could assist me with removing it from my house. Low and behold the person who picked up the fridge was also an appliance repair person, he messaged me a day or two later and told me that he only had to replace the condenser fan motor and the fridge is now working fine.

Roy did not take the time to properly diagnose the issue which resulted in me having to spend $2000 on a new fridge when simply repairing the fridge would have saved me a lot of time and money.

I want my $100 dollars back, actually I want my old fridge back. I do not recommend this company.

How is one to prove that a fridge is working when it is no longer in my possession?
31 July 2019 20:53
Roy is an honest guy with lots of experience in the business. Hands down would not recommend anyone else when it comes to appliances.
25 July 2019 16:26
I have used Roy twice now to repair two different stoves. On both occasions, he responded immediately, arrived on time, was respectful of my home, fixed the problem, provided advice, and charged a very reasonable price. I would not consider using anyone but Roy for appliance repairs.
09 July 2019 12:02
Roy is a great guy, call him on this past Friday for a refrigerator repair, i get a appointment at 11am, roy arrived on time and found the problem quickly and give a upfront cost, get my fridge back up and running on same day.all service cost is quite reasonable. I definitely recommend roy.and will use him again, good job.thanks roy my refrigerator is working like new one.
28 May 2019 22:25
Kitchenaid Fridge (ice machine) quick response and great customer service, Roy helped source the part & install it - on time & very fair rates - would definitely recommend.
21 May 2019 15:16
We called Roy late on a Saturday afternoon and he was able to come out the very next day. Thank you for coming out to repair our washing machine on a snowy Sunday morning. Within an hour our machine was back up and running.
09 May 2019 6:56
Roy was very impressive, very knowledgeable and very professional.both problems, refrigerator and dryer were looked after immediately and his charges were very competitive. Very pleased we found Roy and his fast and efficient services. Highly recommended.
30 April 2019 9:46
Roy is an outstanding employee. He is polite, professional and prompt. He is one of the best repair and
and service persons I have ever met. Highly recommend. Steve Turner
22 April 2019 11:01
My fridge stopped working so I gave them a call and they were at my house and my fridge was fixed within 2 hours. Very friendly and polite. I would recommend this company 100%!
21 April 2019 10:18
We called one night last week and were lucky enough to have Roy come to our home to take a look at our washing machine the very next morning. He was very prompt, determined what the problem was and then was back the same evening with a replacement part. We had used this group approx. 4 months before at our old house on a different washing machine and had the same great experience. Overall the service was very professional and affordable. I would highly recommend Roy at Better General Appliances.
20 April 2019 21:34
Fantastic professional service! After a less than satisfactory dealing with another company, it was a delight to have the problem diagnosed and resolved all on the same day. Highly recommended.
14 April 2019 9:43
Called at 9am - fridge was fixed by 1: 30pm the same day! It’s tough to find a good repair company let alone someone that will come to do the work. First class service.
28 December 2018 2:45
Very pleasant experience from beginning to end! Roy's direct line is listed in his ad and he answered the call right away (no lengthy wait time for voicemail message to be returned). He was able to provide me with same-day service. Roy gave me an arrival time of between 3: 00 and 6: 00, and arrived ahead of time. He diagnosed & fixed the problem promptly. The rate he charged seemed very fair.

He’s friendly, knowledgeable, honest, very customer-service oriented. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing appliance repairs. Should the need arise, I will definitely call Roy again!
