WhatsApp Forms for AC and Appliance Repair Services — Diagnose Before You Dispatch

A WhatsApp form with a photo and video field lets customers show you the problem before your technician drives out — cutting down on wasted visits and wrong-part trips.

The Wrong-Part Problem

An AC or appliance repair technician often arrives without knowing exactly what's wrong — "it's not cooling" could mean a dozen different issues needing different parts. A WhatsApp form with a photo (or even a short video) lets the customer show you the problem before anyone drives out.

Repair Request Form Template

Fields to include:

  • Full Name (Text, required)
  • Phone Number (Phone, required)
  • Appliance Type (Dropdown) — AC / Refrigerator / Washing Machine / Microwave / Water Purifier / Other
  • Brand and Model (If Known) (Text)
  • Describe the Issue (Paragraph)
  • Photo or Video of the Problem (File Upload)
  • How Long Has This Been an Issue? (Radio)
  • Urgency (Radio) — Today if possible / Within 2–3 days / No rush
  • Address / Area (Paragraph, required)
  • Where to Share the Form

  • Google Business Profile — "AC repair near me" and "washing machine repair near me" are frequent, high-urgency searches
  • WhatsApp Business auto-greeting — send the form link the moment someone messages your number
  • Service stickers left after a repair — a QR code for next time
  • Local community WhatsApp groups
  • A Video Says More Than a Description Ever Will

    A 10-second video of an AC unit making an unusual noise, or a washing machine failing mid-cycle, tells your technician what tools and parts to bring — often letting you fix it in one visit instead of two.

    > "Hi [Name], from your video it looks like a capacitor issue — common and quick to fix. I can have someone there by 5pm today with the part, roughly ₹600 for the repair."
