The weather on the truck is months of rain, moss, a mild winter, and heat events that exposed how many houses have no real cooling. Ballard, West Seattle, and Beacon Hill are worth naming only when they are real stops. Bellevue and Kirkland are a different drive until you can reach them the same day.

  • Set the primary category to Appliance repair service. Add a second category only for work you actually do in Seattle.
  • Service area: Ballard, West Seattle, Beacon Hill, Bellevue, Kirkland. Leave a town off if the truck does not go there.
  • Write the description from the local job, not from a slogan. The machines you stock parts for, and a clear no on HVAC and panels.

Reviews

Reply to the reviews you have. Mention the job, not a discount. If you do not have reviews yet, the listing should still be accurate. Empty and honest beats a fake stack.
