Appliance Repair in Colbert, WA
Owner-Operated | Same Rate as Spokane, No Distance Surcharge | Open 7 Days | Licensed, Bonded and Insured in Washington
If the second refrigerator out in the shop has gone warm, the chest freezer holding a season of Green Bluff fruit is not maintaining temperature, or the oven has quit while the cooktop is still working, you are on the right page.
Colbert sits north of Mead in the rural end of the county, about thirty minutes from the South Hill, and it is charged at the same rate as anywhere else. Appliance repair in your home.
SD Appliance is Sergei Dergunov, working out of the South Hill since 2020 and repairing appliances since 2013.
Large lots, high ownership, and appliances people keep
Colbert is an unincorporated community rather than a town, so the figures below describe the wider Colbert area rather than a municipal boundary. What can be measured is the wider area, and the profile it shows is consistent: about 91 percent of homes are owner-occupied, roughly 87 percent are single-unit detached, and household income is well above the county median.
Sergei’s own read is that Colbert sits in the middle of what he covers, a mix of farmhouses and new-construction communities. Both of those are here, and Green Bluff, the orchard and equestrian belt, is a couple of miles east.
For appliance work, that combination produces a recognizable kind of call. Owner-occupied properties on larger lots, appliances that get kept rather than replaced, and a decent likelihood of a second refrigerator or a chest freezer in a garage or an outbuilding as well as the kitchen one.
Out here, the phone call is worth more
Colbert is spread out, and that changes what a phone call is worth before anyone drives anywhere.
The rate itself does not change with distance. In his own words, he charges the same for a service call or a repair and will take any job. The change is that a property here is rarely a five-minute detour, so the description you give over the phone does more work.
A fair number of faults can be narrowed down from a good description alone. Where the symptom points to a repair that costs more than the machine is worth, you hear that on the phone rather than after the service call has already been spent. If you would rather have it confirmed in person, that is your decision, and he will come out.
The second thing distance changes is how you use one visit. Properties out here often have more than one machine, and a chest freezer in a shop or a second refrigerator in a garage are common. Mention every appliance you want looked at when you call rather than only the one that failed.
So the useful thing to have ready is the brand, the model number, and a precise description of what the appliance is doing and when it does it. Where the math actually tips, appliance by appliance, is set out on the repair or replace page.
Getting out to Colbert
About 17 miles from the South Hill and somewhere around thirty minutes.
The name covers a wider area
Colbert is an unincorporated community rather than a town, so the name covers a wider area than any boundary does. Green Bluff, a couple of miles east, is on the same map. So is Mead, to the south. All of it is charged at the South Hill rate with no distance surcharge and no minimum job size. And on a long drive for a repair that is not worth doing, you hear that before anyone gets in a van rather than after.
Scheduling, not price
The drive into the rural north changes the scheduling rather than the price. Whether a visit can happen today depends on the hour you call, where the day already is, and whether the part is on the van, and you get that answer straight on the phone.
Addressed by ZIP, not by line
Most people here give an address by Colbert or by the 99005 ZIP code rather than by a municipal line, because there is no municipal line to give.
Every appliance we repair in Colbert
All of it, in your home, including the second refrigerator and the freezer in the outbuilding.
What is not repaired, anywhere on the map
The list above is the whole of it. What falls outside is worth stating plainly, because it saves a phone call.
Repairs only, in your home
Appliances are not installed, a new unit is not set into cabinetry, and nothing is reconnected after a kitchen remodel. The one exception anywhere on the site is a like-for-like garbage disposal swap.
Residential only
Houses, outbuildings and rental properties are all residential work, including the freezer in the shop. Commercial kitchens, restaurants and commercial refrigeration are not taken on: in his words, no commercial at all.
No shop, no drop-off, no factory authorization
There is no shop and no drop-off, so nothing gets carried anywhere. There is also no factory authorization here, which means manufacturer-warranty repairs are not performed. If your appliance is still under its manufacturer’s warranty, you will be told to use that coverage rather than being sold a repair you could have had for free.
What people say about the work
Straight from Google, unedited, from customers across the Spokane area.
Booking a visit in Colbert
The call comes to Sergei rather than a booking service. There is no call center and no dispatcher, so you are talking to the person who will make the drive. Out here that call does more work than usual: the brand, the model number and a precise description often settle whether a visit is worth making at all.
Common parts ride on the van. Anything less common is ordered in, and nothing gets ordered without your approval on the part and the price. Local counter stock for appliance parts is thin, so anything less common comes from out of town and takes a few business days.
The same person diagnoses it, prices it and does the work, on the first visit and again on the return visit if a part has to be ordered.
What the visit costs
The same $89 seventeen miles north as on the South Hill, and it covers every machine looked at on the visit, not one each. It covers travel, inspection and diagnostic time, goes toward the repair if you go ahead, and stands on its own if you decide not to.
Flat, upfront pricing
Once the fault is known you get a flat price for the repair, before any work starts, and the price quoted is the price paid. It does not move because the job ran long or because the part sat somewhere awkward.
30 to 90 day warranty
Parts and labor are warranted for 30 to 90 days as stated on your invoice. The full terms, exclusions included, are on the warranty page.
No weekend or holiday premium
There is no weekend or holiday premium. A Saturday, a Sunday or a holiday is billed like a weekday.
Financing & military discount
Zero-interest financing through Wisetack is available on repairs over $500 for eligible customers, and active-duty service members and veterans get 15% off labor. Terms are on the financing page.
Questions people in Colbert ask
No, it is an unincorporated community in north Spokane County. It changes nothing about the service.
No. Same rate as the South Hill, no distance surcharge, and no minimum job size.
Yes. Mention every machine you want looked at when you call, so the visit gets planned around all of them rather than one.
Often. On some faults, he can say before driving out that a repair is not worth the money, and he will say so rather than take the service call.
Yes, at the same rate. It is a couple of miles east, and it sits on the same map.
That depends on the day and the hour you call, and you get a straight answer on the phone rather than a promise that might not hold. More on same-day repair.
It depends entirely on what has failed and what the part costs, and you get the numbers before you spend anything. More on repair or replace.
