Modernize is a marketplace that connects homeowners with licensed professionals in their area to repair and, in some cases, replace heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. Through an online quote process, Modernize links up to four contractors to service the desired projects, and features a robust website with valuable home improvement information.

Modernize Appliance Repair Services

Appliance Repair Services - 4 / 5

Modernize offers repair services exclusively for HVAC systems. By completing an online form with details about your heating and cooling equipment (in addition to your home address and phone number), you authorize to be contacted by up to four licensed contractors in your area. The specific services available depend on their offers and, since Modernize is not a service provider, they cannot guarantee you will find a suitable match for your repair project. Nonetheless, users can choose a repair option on the form, as well as consideration for equipment replacement if repair is not viable. Modernize does not charge any fee for the use of its platform, but you will need to confirm with the service professionals for any technician call out fee that may apply.
