Giving you the royal treatment.

Appliance Kings LTD is a local domestic appliance repair and sales business covering Cambridge and its surrounding towns and villages, Huntingdon and the surrounding areas, and Hertfordshire. We fix washing machines, tumble dryers, dishwashers, ovens, hobs, fridges, freezers and everything else that quietly runs a household until the morning it does not. Our tagline is giving you the royal treatment, and that is meant literally rather than decoratively: it describes how we think a customer should be spoken to, quoted and looked after from the first phone call to the end of the guarantee. We are a small, local, family-feel business rather than a national call centre with a subcontractor network. When you ring 07849 033758 you speak to people who know the area, know which towns the vans are near today and can tell you honestly whether we can get to you this afternoon or whether tomorrow is more realistic. That matters because appliance repair is a trade where the wrong answer is usually the one that sounds most convenient. We would rather give you a straight next-day slot we can keep than a same-day promise we quietly break at five o'clock. Our engineers are trained to explain things in plain English. If your washing machine has a failed drain pump because a coin worked its way past the filter, that is what you will be told, along with what the repair costs and what to do to stop it happening again. There is no jargon designed to make a simple job sound frightening and no vague talk of the machine needing work. Pricing follows the same principle. There is a £90 call-out that covers the visit, the diagnosis and the labour, with no hourly rate and no separate diagnosis fee, and parts are charged on top at a price quoted for your approval before anything is fitted. If we cannot fix it, you pay the £90 and nothing else. The local element genuinely shapes the work. Water across Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire runs at roughly 280 to 320 mg/l calcium carbonate, which is very hard, and limescale is behind an enormous share of the failures we attend, from burnt-out heating elements to blocked jets and scaled sensors. We plan our maintenance advice and our servicing around that reality, because a machine that is descaled regularly in this region lasts years longer than one that is not. We repair, we sell and install replacement appliances when repair no longer makes sense, and PAT testing is launching soon. What we do not do is commercial machines, and we will always tell you that before you book rather than after we have taken your money.
