Around Town Appliance Repair, Inc.

Around Town Appliance Repair is a Medford appliance repair specialist run by Tony LaRoche, working out of West Medford since 2010. Alongside kitchen and laundry appliances it lists furnace repair and maintenance, boiler service, central air conditioning repair, central vacuum work and exhaust fan repair. The firsthand record is very thin. A Medford resident wrote on Reddit in July 2024 that Tony LaRoche has been great every time they have had appliance issues — a repeat-customer recommendation that names the owner directly, and the only account from an actual customer available anywhere. Its Porch listing shows a 5.00 average from 117 ratings, but Porch describes that as an aggregate of online reviews collected elsewhere and publishes no review text and no star breakdown, so there is no way to see what any of those 117 people actually said. For a small appliance repair call that is often enough to make a phone call worthwhile, particularly given the owner is named and reachable. For anything larger — a boiler, a furnace, a central air system — ask directly about experience with your specific equipment and what warranty or callback policy applies, because nothing in the public record speaks to that work.
