We repair JennAir refrigeration, wine columns, ranges, ovens and dishwashers on Galveston Island, from historic homes to Seawall condos. Book online or by phone and select your arrival block.
Local housing, power events, water conditions, and installation styles all affect how we approach JennAir diagnostics here.
The Silk Stocking district and the East End district sit largely on ground that was raised after the 1900 storm. After Ike, West End owners rebuilt many houses on stilts.
Carrying in and connecting a JennAir unit depends on stairs, raised kitchens and older wiring. Tell us about stairs, elevators and whether a key or lockbox is needed.
Brazos River water travels by canal to a Texas City treatment plant run by the Gulf Coast Water Authority, the Thomas S. Mackey plant. From there, mains across the railroad bridge bring it onto Galveston Island.
Once a boil-water notice ends, run the refrigerator dispenser clear and discard old ice. A filter that shows odor or sediment afterward gets replaced.
Ike's September 2008 landfall pushed water as high as 17 feet; across the East End it stood five to six feet deep, and 80 percent of the city's houses were damaged. Day in, day out, salt in the air eats at coils, hinges and screws left exposed.
Wipe exterior surfaces, and clean the condenser grille with a vacuum more often than the manual says. Rust on screws and hinges tells us a unit has been fighting the air for years.
Raised beach houses and Seawall condos often have compact dishwashers and stacked or compact laundry. Restored Victorians usually fit a 24-inch dishwasher and a range into tight spaces, and bigger remodels may add a wall oven.
Moving a JennAir column or wine unit up stairs or into a high-rise elevator needs planning. Ask your condo office about freight elevator rules before the visit.
The I-45 causeway is our route to the island, the longest drive we make, so visits are scheduled ahead, typically next-day or later in the week. If you rent the property short-term, we can visit between guests. Send us key access details and the appliance location.
Coastal air is hard on appliances, since fine salt settles on condenser coils and wicks into hinges and screws. Rinse the grille with a damp cloth and keep laundry room windows shut when wind blows off the Gulf. For a second home, unplug and prop open the dishwasher door before long absences, and have an electrician look at any outlet showing green corrosion.
