Penn Hills and Plum are where the eastern suburbs spread out. Penn Hills filled in after the war with brick ranches and split-levels on winding streets, while Plum grew later, with newer subdivisions and houses on bigger lots. In both, the kitchen is rarely the problem spot; it's the lower level, where the washer, the dryer, the second refrigerator and the chest freezer share space with a garage door that lets in the cold.
Two things worth knowing about ASKO before we arrive: Asko parts pass through fewer distributors than the big brands, so we check availability as part of the diagnosis; and Asko uses steel frames and stainless tubs and drums, so repairs usually involve a pump, a valve or a seal rather than anything structural.
Call or book online and we'll set up a time that works for you.
ASKO: platform and parts
ASKO belongs to the Asko family of brands, which share engineering and a lot of components. That helps on jobs around Penn Hills & Plum: parts are easier to track down, and the ways these machines tend to fail are well understood.
Send us the model number with your booking. Look for a sticker inside the door or lid, along the frame, behind the bottom kick plate or on the rear panel; with it we can look up that platform's known weak points and carry those parts instead of ordering after the first visit.
Keeping an ASKO running
ASKO designs its appliances to be kept for a long time and keeps parts in supply to match. When a ASKO in its second decade breaks, it's usually one part, not the whole machine wearing out, which is rarely true of an economy model the same age.
What you pay for that is parts that cost more and are more often special-ordered, so some ASKO repairs around Penn Hills & Plum need a second trip. We tell you the wait before you agree, and book the return visit on the spot.
Where ASKO appliances sit in Penn Hills & Plum
Chest freezers and second refrigerators in garages through the cold months, washers and dryers on basement floors that stay damp, dryer vents running long distances to reach an outside wall, and kitchens that have kept the same range or wall oven for decades.
No matter the brand, an ASKO appliance in Penn Hills & Plum is only as good as the drain, circuit, vent and water line it's hooked to, and here the washer and dryer are usually in the basement, often in a lower level next to an attached or tuck-under garage, or a first-floor laundry room in the newer Plum houses.
When replacing makes more sense
Repair is our trade, but we tell plenty of Penn Hills & Plum customers not to bother. Spending real money on a worn-out machine that's likely to fail again soon helps nobody, and you should hear that before you pay for anything.
We talk it through with you: how big the repair is, how old the unit is, what kind of appliance it is, and whether it's built into the cabinets. It's a call we make standing in front of it, not a formula.
Power outages and food
Summer storms and winter ice both bring down lines around Penn Hills & Plum, and some outages last a day or longer. Keep the refrigerator and freezer closed through it; federal food-safety guidance says food stays safe for around four hours in a shut refrigerator, about 48 hours in a full freezer and about 24 in a half-full one.
The spike when service returns is what tends to hurt electronic controls. If something won't start or flashes a code afterwards, cut its breaker for a minute and switch it back on. If that doesn't clear it, tell us about the outage when you book.

ASKO in Penn Hills & Plum: Questions We Hear
Quick answers to what people ask most. If yours isn't here, bring it up on the phone or type it into the notes box when you book.
Something else on your mind?
Reach out with the brand, the symptom and a model number if you have one. Some questions we can answer on the spot; the rest a technician can check in person.
Yes. Alongside household appliances, we work on reach-in coolers and freezers, prep tables, ice machines and commercial ranges and ovens for businesses in Penn Hills & Plum, and we try to schedule around your service hours.
No. Penn Hills is its own municipality, Plum and Churchill are boroughs, and none of them is part of the City of Pittsburgh despite the Pittsburgh mailing addresses. Either way, both ZIP codes here are on our service map.
Yes, while it's under the manufacturer's warranty. Warranty repairs are normally handled by the maker's own service network, and we're an independent company, not an authorized service center. Once the warranty has run out, or the problem isn't covered, we're glad to take the job in Penn Hills & Plum.
Our first choice is the ASKO part that matches your model number. If that part has been discontinued, an equivalent may exist, and we'll tell you it's an equivalent before it goes in. ASKO shares a parts bin with the other Asko brands, so compatible parts are usually easy to get, even for older units.
In most cases, repair. ASKO designs its appliances to last longer than economy lines and keeps parts available for longer, so a single failed part in a unit that's ten years old usually leaves plenty of good machine behind, especially when it's built into your cabinets.
