Across Marin County - San Rafael, Novato, Mill Valley, Sausalito, Tiburon, Larkspur, Corte Madera and nearby towns - FixitBay LLC repairs refrigerators, washers, dryers, dishwashers, ovens, ranges, wine coolers and ice makers for homes and businesses. We are a licensed California appliance technician (BHGS #51001). A Marin visit is an $80 diagnostic credited toward the repair, with a written estimate before any part is ordered and a 180-day warranty on parts and labor. Jobs often finish on the first visit, and any model-specific part is quoted before you approve. Book same-day or next-day, and the calendar shows the earliest open window.
The $80 diagnostic covers the visit, the testing and a written quote, and it comes off the invoice when you go ahead with the repair. Most common repairs land between $250 and $350: a dryer heating element runs $265, a washer drain pump $295, a refrigerator control board $350. The built-in and luxury units common in Belvedere, Tiburon and Ross start higher, with Sub-Zero refrigerator work from $555. You approve the number before any work starts.
Travel time across the Golden Gate Bridge runs about 25 to 45 minutes from our SF dispatch, depending on Bridge traffic, weekday rush hours, and where in Marin you are. Sausalito is the closest crossing and Novato the furthest. Most visits land same-day or next-day, and the booking calendar shows the earliest window we have before you commit. We group Marin appointments to keep Bridge crossings down.
Most Marin visits land same-day or next-day. When you book online, the calendar shows the earliest window we have open, so you book a real slot on our schedule. How soon depends on the day and the address: Sausalito and Mill Valley near the Bridge are quicker to reach than Novato at the north end, and we group Marin appointments to keep Golden Gate Bridge crossings down. We do not run after-hours or overnight emergency call-outs, so the soonest we can come is whatever the calendar shows. To grab the first opening, book online or call (760) 543-5733 and we will find the closest window for your Marin address.
Yes. Plenty of Marin homes have steep, narrow driveways and nowhere to leave a service vehicle, and the redwood neighborhoods of Mill Valley, the island streets on Belvedere and the Tiburon hillside roads are the usual ones. Our technicians come in standard-size vehicles and carry the tools in on foot when a driveway will not take one. We sort the parking out with you at booking.
Yes. Estate kitchens in Belvedere, Tiburon and Mill Valley commonly run Sub-Zero refrigerators, Wolf ranges, Miele dishwashers and Thermador double ovens. We order parts once the diagnostic tells us which part failed. Mass-market parts arrive in 2 to 4 business days, premium brands take longer, and we confirm the wait during the diagnostic visit so you can decide before anything is ordered.
We accept all major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover), Apple Pay, Venmo, Zelle, online payment via secure invoice link, personal checks, and cash. Payment is collected after the repair is complete and you've approved the work. We don't require a deposit beyond the $80 diagnostic visit fee, which is fully credited toward your repair if you proceed. No processing fees, no hidden charges, the price you approve is the price you pay.
Yes. FixitBay LLC is a licensed California contractor, license #51001, and we carry insurance. Every repair across Marin County comes with a 180-day warranty on parts and labor, so if the same fault returns inside that window we come back and put it right at no extra charge. The license number is printed on your invoice, and the owner stands behind the work rather than routing you to a call center. The coverage is the same whether it is a standard Whirlpool washer in Novato or a built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator or Wolf range in a Belvedere or Tiburon estate. You can ask to see the license and insurance details at the diagnostic visit, before you approve any work.
Our regular Marin coverage includes 13 cities: Sausalito, Mill Valley, San Rafael, Novato, Tiburon, Belvedere, Corte Madera, Larkspur, Greenbrae, Ross, Fairfax, San Anselmo, and San Quentin. If your Marin address isn’t on this list, call (760) 543-5733 or send us a message and we’ll check our current schedule and let you know whether we can come out to you. Coverage on borderline addresses depends on technician availability and routing for that day, so the fastest answer is a quick call.
No. The $80 diagnostic visit fee is the same across all 22 cities we cover, Marin County included, and it is credited in full toward the repair when you go ahead. There is no Golden Gate Bridge surcharge, no toll pass-through, no travel premium for the north end of the county, and no minimum trip charge. Distance from our San Francisco dispatch does not change the price: a visit in Sausalito by the Bridge and a visit in Novato at the far end of Marin both pay the same $80. We keep it flat by grouping Marin appointments and routing to cut Bridge crossings, so the drive time is on us, not on your invoice. If your address sits right at the edge of the coverage area, a quick call to (760) 543-5733 confirms we can reach you before anything is booked.
We tell you at the diagnostic, before any work starts. You get four numbers to weigh: the parts cost, the labor, roughly how much life the machine has left, and what a comparable new unit costs today. If the repair is a fraction of a replacement and the appliance has years left, fixing it is the easy call. If the machine is near the end and the repair approaches the price of new, we say so plainly rather than sell you a job that does not pay off. The math tips toward repair more often on the built-in and premium units common in Marin: a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a Wolf range or a Miele dishwasher is built to be serviced for years, where a basic mass-market unit may not be. If replacing wins, we credit the $80 diagnostic toward whatever you buy instead, and any repair we do carries the 180-day warranty on parts and labor.
Tell us and we come back. Every repair carries a 180-day warranty on parts and labor, so if the same fault returns inside that window we return and put it right at no extra charge and with no second diagnostic fee. Call or text (760) 543-5733, email info@fixitbay.net, or send a note through the site, and we will get you back on the calendar. The owner stands behind the work rather than handing you to a call center, and that holds whether it was a standard Whirlpool washer in Novato or a built-in Sub-Zero or Wolf unit in a Belvedere or Tiburon estate. If something still is not right after we come back, we keep working it until the appliance runs the way it should.
