Our Samsung fridge stopped cooling overnight. Called Max Fixing and they sent someone out same day. The technician was professional, explained everything clearly, and had us back up and running in under 2 hours. Pricing was fair and transparent. Highly recommend!
Washer was making a horrible noise. The tech arrived on time, diagnosed the issue quickly (worn bearing), and completed the repair efficiently. Very knowledgeable and reasonably priced. Will definitely use them again.
Had an issue with our GE dishwasher not draining. Max Fixing came out the next day, fixed it within an hour, and cleaned up everything. The technician was courteous and explained what caused the problem. Great service!
Our LG dryer stopped heating. Called Max Fixing and they were able to fit us in the same day. The repair was done professionally and the price was exactly what they quoted over the phone. Very satisfied with the service.
Excellent service! Our Whirlpool refrigerator was leaking water. The technician arrived within the scheduled window, quickly identified the problem, and had the parts needed in his truck. Fixed it on the spot. Very pleased!
Called them for our Maytag washer that wouldn't spin. They came out same day, tech was friendly and professional. Fixed the issue and gave us maintenance tips to prevent future problems. Fair pricing too. Would recommend!
Our KitchenAid oven stopped working right before Thanksgiving. Max Fixing saved the day! Same-day service, professional technician, and reasonable rates. We were so relieved. Thank you!
Had them fix our dishwasher last year and they did such a great job we called them again for our fridge. Always reliable, professional, and fair pricing. They're our go-to for all appliance repairs now.
Very responsive and professional. Our freezer stopped working and they came out within hours. The technician was knowledgeable and explained everything clearly. Repair was done quickly and hasn't had any issues since.
The marine layer off the Pacific pushes ambient humidity into laundry rooms that were never designed for it — especially the stacked-unit condos lining 4th and 5th Streets near Ocean Park. A Bosch 300 Series compact dryer running 90-minute cycles when it used to finish in 45 is telling you something specific: restricted airflow or a failing moisture sensor, not just age. MaxFixing runs Santa Monica routes daily. Call (323) 870-4790.
Buildings in the 90405 zip — Ocean Park, Sunset Park — were mostly built between 1950 and 1975. Laundry was an afterthought: closets tucked off hallways, vent runs hitting two or three bends before daylight. That geometry chokes exhaust. North of Wilshire in 90402, the housing shifts to larger homes with proper laundry rooms, but the appliances get more complicated — Thermador, Bosch, KitchenAid — each needing different diagnostic procedures and parts sourcing.
Common Dryer Issues in Santa Monica
Thermal Fuse Keeps Blowing in Ocean Park Apartments
A thermal fuse blows when exhaust temps spike — usually because lint has packed the vent run solid. In buildings off Pier Avenue where vent stacks run through shared walls, one clogged section affects every unit above it. Samsung dryers are especially sensitive: they throw a tE3 error and shut down completely rather than run hot.
Drum Stops Spinning Mid-Cycle in Older Units
Drive belt and drum rollers take real abuse in humid coastal laundry rooms where condensation cycles daily. LG units from 2015–2019 had a known drum roller bracket failure mode — the rollers flatten on one side and you hear a rhythmic thump before the drum seizes. Replacing rollers without checking the belt tensioner means a callback in three months.
No Heat Even After Resetting — Gas Dryer Specific
Gas dryers west of Lincoln Boulevard are usually Whirlpool or KitchenAid. If the gas valve igniter glows for two seconds then cuts out before the burner catches, the igniter coils are failing. Most people assume it's a heating element — but gas units don't have one. Completely different diagnosis, completely different part.
