Sometimes We Wonder.......

I think in the past week we have looked at a half of a dozen or a little more. Maybe even 1 appliance a day that shouldn't be looked at in the first place. What I mean is the appliance is so old or in such bad shape that it's really in the best interest to just replace it then to repair it. I know money can be tight and a repair is less expensive, sometimes even less than what you think it could be. But what we look for here at MARS is the worth of the repair. Is it worth the money and time to invest in the product. Only time will tell.  

Think of it like this. Would you be willing to invest 100 or more dollars into the appliance to repair its current problem? If yes then maybe it's worth it to you. If no, then don't call and set up an appointment hoping to get away with a cheap, cheap repair. In most cases the older the appliance the more problems, cosmetic problems exist and mechanical problems break down from age. So if you look at your appliance in disgust because of the way it looks or have had it for 20 years then start thinking of something new. The reason is because money pits do exist today and they can happen anywhere at anytime. All we can do is tell you what we think about the appliance and what could give future problems and of course we can fix the current problem. But if something else breaks a couple of months down the road just be prepared. In most cases the appliance will not do this, but it has happened a couple of times to us over the years. We don't want anyone to feel like they should have replaced instead of repair. If you're wondering if it's going to be worth the repair then we would be happy to come out for a Service Call and check it out for you. Trust me we will tell if it's worth it. 

We don't advise or encourage cheap or jerry-rigged repairs. We always stand by our work and our word to fix it right. If it can't be fixed the way we like we will inform you about getting a new one or encourage you to invest in a new product instead of repairing.

So sometimes we wonder why we're even out on some Service Calls when we take a peak at the appliance. When it's falling apart and even scary to touch we just wonder......

Once again this is why you should choose MARS for your repairs. We will always advise you about the appliance and its current shape. And we will always let you know if it's worth the repair or not.
