Tomball sits in far northwest Harris County, where State Highway 249 meets FM 2920. It began as a railroad town, and the old depot still anchors Main Street, where the city holds its German Heritage Festival. Around that core are newer subdivisions and larger lots, and many garages hold a second refrigerator or a chest freezer.
Those garage units drive a good share of appliance repair calls in Tomball. A freezer in summer heat runs long hours, and a worn door gasket or dusty coil can tip it into thawing. Freezer repairs usually cost $100 to $400. Dryer repair follows the same pattern as elsewhere near Houston, with heating elements, fuses and belts the usual parts.
