Repair & Repainting

If you are building or doing a major remodel you will probably look at purchasing new appliances, but if you are doing a minor remodel or facelift you may want to keep your appliances. If you need to repair your current appliances, contact The Appliance Brand Master List for a list of manufacturers and their toll-free phone numbers. Be aware that moving an appliance can sometimes jar the components causing it to break--so be careful. For a list of "Appliance Parts/Repair" link to the web site at Appliance.com.

You may be surprised that most appliances can be repainted to achieve a fresh new look. Repainting can be done by yourself with aerosol appliance paint at approximately 25% of the cost of a new appliance. You can also have it done professionally--look up "Appliances-Painting and Refinishing" or an "Autobody Paint Shop" in your local phone book or in YellowPages.com. NOTE: Cooktop surfaces can not be repainted due to the high heat, they must be re-enameled--contact The Porcelain Enamel Institute for the nearest service location.
