Master of Appliances: Your Trusted Source for High-Quality Appliances in Somerville, MA

Master of Appliances isn’t just about fixing what’s broken. We’re also your go-to source for buying top-notch appliances right here in Somerville. After two decades in the business, we know the ins and outs of what works in local homes — from the tight kitchens of Davis Square condos to the spacious layouts near Union Square. That knowledge helps us stock the gear that actually fits your life.

Diverse Inventory for Every Home Need

Whether you’re hunting for a fridge that fits that oddly-sized alcove in your Spring Hill apartment or a washer and dryer set that won’t rattle the floorboards in your Teele Square unit, we’ve got it. Our inventory runs the gamut: high-performance refrigerators, quiet dishwashers, sleek microwaves, and stove tops that’ll make your Sunday sauce taste even better. We pick brands that hold up — because Somerville summers can be brutal, and the last thing you need is a freezer that quits.

Quality and Dependability

Here’s the thing: we don’t sell anything we wouldn’t put in our own homes. Every appliance we carry gets checked over — not just for scratches, but for real performance. That means you’re getting a reliable workhorse, not something that’ll need servicing before your next Somerville Porchfest. When you buy from us, you’re choosing gear built to last through the wet winters and the sticky August afternoons.

Personalized Shopping Experience

Walking into a big-box store can feel overwhelming. We get it. That’s why our team takes the time to actually listen — your kitchen layout, your cooking habits, your budget. Maybe you’re replacing a 20-year-old oven in a Powder House rental, or outfitting a brand-new build near Assembly Row. We’ll guide you to the right call, no pressure. Honest advice, plain and simple.

Ongoing Support and Maintenance

The relationship doesn’t end at the sale. We stand behind every appliance we sell. If something goes wonky six months in — or six years in — our repair crew is a phone call away. We’ve been fixing appliances in Somerville long enough to know the common issues: the clay soil that shifts under some foundations (wreaking havoc on washer leveling), the hard water that shortens dishwasher life. So we’re ready to help, whether it’s a tune-up or a full fix.

Pledging an Enjoyable Shopping Experience

Honestly, buying an appliance should be simple — not a headache. We promise a no-hassle experience from start to finish. You’ll talk to real people who know what they’re talking about, not robots reading from a script. Your satisfaction matters to us. That’s why so many Somerville neighbors keep coming back year after year.

Ready to find your next appliance? Give us a shout. We’ll help you get the right gear for your home — no fuss, no fluff.

Somerville, with a population of around 81,000, is the most densely populated city in New England. It sits just north of Boston and Cambridge, bordered by the Mystic River, and is known for its tight-knit, walkable neighborhoods like Davis Square, Union Square, and Assembly Square. The local economy runs on a mix of tech startups, arts, and food service, meaning many residents live in older triple-decker homes or renovated apartments that have been in the family for decades.

With historic housing stock comes vintage appliances—often original to the 1900s-buildings but now strained by modern usage. Somerville’s humid summers and freeze-thaw winters can wreck seals on refrigerators or freeze washing machine drain lines. Between the constant renovation pressure from new condos and the wear-and-tear from the city’s notorious side-street parking vibration, Somerville locals need a repair service that knows how to handle a 1920s-style kitchen setup without making a mess of the neighborhood’s tight streets.

Frequently Asked Questions About Somerville

Do I need a permit to replace my water heater in Somerville, especially in a historic district like Union Square or Davis Square?

Yes, any water heater replacement in Somerville requires a plumbing permit from the Inspectional Services Department, but if your home is in a Local Historic District (like the Union Square or Davis Square area), you may also need approval from the Historic Preservation Commission for external venting changes. Our team coordinates with both offices to avoid fines.

How does winter road salt from Somerville’s side streets affect my washing machine and dryer?

Somerville uses heavy road salt on its narrow, sloping streets (like those around Spring Hill or Ten Hills). That salt gets tracked into your laundry room, settling on dryer vents and corroding washing machine hoses faster than in other towns. We recommend annual inspections during the freeze-thaw months.

Will you haul my old refrigerator away if I live on a steep street in Winter Hill where the truck can’t park?

Absolutely. Our technicians are used to Winter Hill and Powder House Hill’s tricky parking. We’ll carry the unit down and load it onto our hand truck from your doorway. We recycle all appliances per Somerville’s waste disposal guidelines.
