How GossTech Diagnoses — Our Step-by-Step Process
- Phone Triage: When you call +254 723 613 664, we ask a few diagnostic questions (sounds, error codes, recent events) to advise immediate safe steps and decide whether an on-site visit is necessary.
- On-site inspection: Our technician arrives with a toolkit and common spare parts. They inspect electrical connections, hoses, the drum, pump, motors, belts, seals and read any error codes.
- Testing: We run the machine through selected cycles, measure voltages/wiring continuity, test water flow & drainage, and recreate the fault where safe.
- Quote & approval: We provide a clear written or verbal estimate for labor + parts. No repair begins until you approve.
- Repair or replacement: We fix the fault on-site if possible. If major parts or a workshop bench repair are needed, we can remove the unit (with written consent) and return it within an agreed timeframe.
- Quality check & tips: After repair we run a full cycle to ensure the issue is resolved and leave maintenance tips to prevent recurrence.
- Warranty: We provide a limited service warranty on parts and labor (terms given at time of repair).
