Frequently Asked Questions

We are an Authorised Service Centre for a vast range of products. These range from Televisions to Refrigerators, from Microwaves to Vacuum Cleaners and more. We can carry-out assessments for insurances, perform minor or major repairs and more.

For a full-list of what products we service, please visit our Our Services.

Our in-home service charge includes the following:

• A trained technician to visit your home or workplace
• On-site assessment of the product you have booked
• Labour to repair the product if repairable*
• Service Report / Quotation**

* Parts are an additional cost and not included in the service charge; if transportation is required this will incur additional charges; if parts are not available via the supplier the full service charge is still applicable.

** Service Report and subsequent quotations are available once the service charge has been paid.

We understand that everyone has busy lives which can make most appointments a hassle if you are time-poor. To provide optimal convenience to you, we offer the following with every booking:

• An SMS on the morning of your booking confirming the time period
• A courtesy call from the technician at least 30 minutes prior to arrival

We do our best to accommodate to time preferences – make sure you ask our friendly staff to see how we can help!

Product warranties range from 12 months to 3 years, plus additional for extended warranty policies.

However, even if your product falls within the time period of manufacturer warranty, it may not necessarily indicate that your product manufacturer will cover the cost of repairs. Warranties may be voided if any of the below occur:

• Physical or impact damage
• Liquid damage
• Negligence (no maintenance or cleaning)

Make sure you speak to our staff and report anything related to your fault prior to booking a technician to attend.

Generally you will be able to determine whether your product is faulty by an error code or a function that is no longer working as it should (or at all!)

It is important to refer to your User Manual to see what an error code may mean to avoid unnecessary charges should we arrive and find that a machine was being used improperly rather than having a fault.

If you are still unsure, please feel free to give us a call and we will do our best to assist you prior to attending!

We have technicians all over Melbourne and therefore we can service your product if you are located in any of the below areas (sorted alphabetically by suburb):

WARRANTY

Products serviced by Woolley Appliance Services PTY LTD are warranted against defects in workmanship and materials for a period of ninety (90) days.

If a fault does develop during the warranty period, to make a claim, the item/s must have a fault that was part of the original repair contract. Example – If Woolley Appliance Services PTY LTD replaced a faulty pump on a washing machine and it developed a fault with the same pump within ninety (90) days, Woolley Appliance Services PTY LTD will replace and/or repair the pump. However, if a separate part such as a board fails which also results in the same type of fault, Woolley Appliance Services PTY LTD will not repair the board under warranty, if not requested.
