Appliance Service in Temple Terrace & Terrace Park
33617 covers much of the City of Temple Terrace, Tampa's Terrace Park, and a slice of East Lake-Orient Park. Temple Terrace was planned in the 1920s as a Mediterranean Revival golf-course community, incorporated in 1925, and the Hillsborough River winds through it.
Local government in 33617 depends on the street, since it is partly the City of Temple Terrace, partly Tampa's Terrace Park and the area east of USF, and partly the unincorporated East Lake-Orient Park community. We cover the whole ZIP all the same.
Original 1920s Mediterranean Revival houses survive near the golf course and the river, surrounded by 1950s and 1960s ranch homes and apartment complexes toward USF. Laundry is in the garage in most ranches and in a utility room or closet in the older houses.
A practical note for Temple Terrace and Terrace Park
Temple Terrace runs its own water utility inside city limits. If your washer shows a slow-fill code or the ice maker trickles, check whether neighbors have low pressure too; if they do, the water utility is the first call, not us. If it's only your house, the inlet screens and the supply valve are the next suspects.
Lightning season
From late spring into fall, afternoon thunderstorms roll across Temple Terrace and Terrace Park most days. Electronic controls on modern washers, dishwashers and refrigerators don't tolerate voltage spikes well.
Unplug sensitive appliances before a storm reaches you, never during one, and consider a surge protector rated for the appliance. If something won't power up after a storm, mention the storm when you book.
Old pipes and fine screens
Some older homes in Temple Terrace and Terrace Park still carry galvanized supply pipe, which sheds rust and scale as it ages. That grit travels straight into the fine screens on washer inlet valves, refrigerator water valves and dishwasher fill lines.
When water to an appliance slows to a trickle, the screens are the first thing we check. If the restriction is in the house pipes, a plumber should take it from there.
Student leases and who signs off
Around USF, rentals in Temple Terrace and Terrace Park change hands with the academic calendar, and the person reporting a broken washer may have lived there a few weeks. The appliance belongs to the owner, so the owner, or the parent who pays the rent, has to approve any work.
Book with the owner's name and number, or have the owner book for you. We'll give both of you the findings, and the repair waits for the person paying.
Whose water, and what it leaves behind
Depending on the street, homes in Temple Terrace and Terrace Park get water from City of Temple Terrace water utility, City of Tampa Water Department or Hillsborough County Public Utilities; your bill says which. Either way it carries minerals, and dishwashers are where most people notice: spotted glasses, a chalky ring inside the door.
Rinse aid and an occasional cleaning cycle handle most of it. Persistent film, spray arms that stick, or dishes that come out cool are signs we should check the pump, the arms and the heater.

More than one. 33617 is partly the City of Temple Terrace, partly Tampa's Terrace Park and the area east of USF, and partly the unincorporated East Lake-Orient Park community. Two houses a few blocks apart can answer to different governments, but that has no effect on a repair visit, and the whole ZIP is in our coverage.
No. We're independent. If your appliance is still under the maker's warranty, contact the maker first; after that, we can help.
