About ARA Home Services

Hi, I’m Erik, owner of ARA Home Services. I believe that most appliances today are worth saving, and my goal is to fix your machine for a fraction of the cost of buying new. I am a local, independent technician serving Houston, and surrounding areas. Because I keep my overhead low, I can offer premium repairs without the "big company" markup. ✅ Why Neighbors Hire ARA: The "No-Surprise" Policy: I charge a flat $49 service fee to come out, open up the machine, and give you an expert diagnosis. If you proceed with the repair, that $49 fee is WAIVED entirely. Honest Opinions: If your machine isn't worth fixing, I will tell you the truth immediately. I’d rather lose a job than have you waste money on a "lemon." One Call Fixes It All: While I specialize in appliances, ARA Home Services is building a network of trusted home pros. We are your neighbors, not a franchise. 🛠️ What I Repair: Refrigerators & Freezers (Cooling issues, leaks, ice makers) Washers & Dryers (Not draining, not spinning, squeaking, heating issues) Ovens, Stoves & Ranges (Burners, igniters, elements) Dishwashers (Cleaning issues, draining, leaks) Microwaves (Heating issues, malfunctions) My Process: Diagnosis: I arrive on time and find the root cause. Quote: I give you the exact price for the repair. Repair: If I have the part, I fix it then. If it requires a special order, I collect a deposit for the part and return the next day to finish the job. Ready to get your home back to normal? Send me a message or request a quote!

Erik was awesome. He was very repsonsive and highly knowledgeable about pretty much all of my kitchen appliances. Would always recommend ARA!

Erick did amazing job repairing the heating element on my Samsung Dryer. He pop open the dryer immediately, unscrewed the parts, vacuum the dirt, replaced the heating element, and screwed the dryer back together. He finished the job in less than an hour. I would definitely recommend him for future repairs.

Eric was great! He was very professional, updated me along the entire process, asked for decisions as needed, provided recommendations, and delivered quality work.

My parents needed their refrigerator looked at as it stopped working properly. I reached out to a few repair companies and ARA appliance repair responded promptly. Erik was able to schedule bright and early the next day. He was able to determine the issue and called LG to see if my parents had a warranty. They did and he set everything up for them. Completely hassle free. Their refrigerator is working again. I’d highly recommend this company to my friends and family. Thank you again for all your help!!
