Appliance Repair in Mead, WA
Owner-Operated | Same Rate as Spokane, No Distance Surcharge | Open 7 Days | Licensed, Bonded and Insured in Washington
If the stacked laundry in a manufactured home has stopped draining, the chest freezer in the garage has gone warm, or the oven has quit while the cooktop still works, you are on the right page.
Mead sits north of Spokane, about half an hour from the South Hill, and it is charged at the same rate as everywhere else. Every repair is done in your home.
SD Appliance is Sergei Dergunov, working out of the South Hill since 2020 and repairing appliances since 2013.
Owner-occupied, and a good share of it manufactured
Mead is not a city and never has been. It is an unincorporated community north of Spokane, worth knowing mostly because it explains why it has no city hall and why its schools, water, and policing all come from elsewhere.
What matters for appliances is the ownership profile, and it is striking. Across the Mead postal area, about 94 percent of homes are owner-occupied, and roughly 72 percent are single-unit homes, with mobile and manufactured homes accounting for about 23 percent of all housing units. Very few rentals, very little churn.
That produces a particular kind of call. Appliances here tend to be owned by the person who uses them, kept longer, and repaired rather than swapped, because nobody is turning the property over. It also means a meaningful share of the work is in manufactured homes, where access and clearances are tighter than in a standard build.
Geographically it splits in two: an older townsite in the south and newer development north of Deadman Creek. The appliance mix follows that split.
Working on appliances in a manufactured home
Worth its own section, because roughly a quarter of housing in this area is not a standard single-family build and the differences are practical rather than technical.
Space is the main one. Laundry is frequently in a closet or a utility alcove rather than a room; appliances are often stacked, and getting a washer or a dryer out to work on it can need a second pair of hands. Saying so when you call means the visit is planned for it rather than discovered on arrival.
Sizes can differ too. Some manufactured homes take narrower or shallower appliances than a standard house, which matters if a repair turns into a replacement decision, because the unit that fits is not always the unit on the shop floor.
None of that changes what gets repaired or what it costs. It changes how long the job takes to set up, which is why the phone call is worth two minutes.
The other practical note is the drive itself. Addresses out here are spread over a lot of ground, and an accurate address with a cross street or a landmark saves more time than anything else you can give on the phone.
Getting out to Mead
About 13 miles from the South Hill and a little under half an hour.
The Mead name covers a lot of ground
The Mead name covers more ground than the community does. The postal area covers about 80 square miles; the school district reaches further still, and Mead High School is not actually in Mead. If your address says Mead, you are almost certainly on the map, and if you are not sure, that is a question for the phone rather than a guess.
Scheduling, not price
The drive 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.
Colbert and Green Bluff, same rate
Colbert and the Green Bluff area, north and east of here, are on the same map at the same rate.
Every appliance we repair in Mead
All of it, in your home.
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, manufactured homes and rental properties are all residential work. 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 Mead
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 be standing in your laundry room. Tell him the brand, the model number if you can find it, what the appliance is doing, and whether it is stacked or in a closet, and the visit gets planned around it.
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 thirteen miles north as on the South Hill. 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 Mead ask
No, and it never has been. It is an unincorporated community north of Spokane, which is why it has no city hall of its own. It makes no difference at all to a repair.
No. Same rate, no distance surcharge, no minimum job size.
Yes. About 23 percent of housing units in the Mead postal area are mobile or manufactured homes, and the difference lies in access rather than in the repair itself. Tight laundry closets and narrow doorways are normal here. Mention it when you call, because a stacked laundry set sometimes needs a second person.
Often repair. A good machine that needs one part is frequently better built than the one that would replace it. More on repair or replace.
Yes, the same as a kitchen unit. Garage and outbuilding refrigerators and chest freezers are ordinary work. More on freezer repair.
Yes, like-for-like. Disposals are replaced rather than repaired, and that swap is the one installation exception anywhere on the site. More on garbage disposal replacement.
No, and it is better if you do not. Pulling a unit out is part of the job, and there is proper equipment for it. Just say on the phone if it is stacked or in a closet.
