William Bannister

William came to Cavalry Appliance Service from the automotive parts retail industry, but we specifically selected him to train as an Appliance Technician Apprentice because of his exceptional character. We met Will through his volunteerism with Boy Scouts of America and we are consistently impressed with his helpful, cheerful and eager-to-learn spirit. William began as an apprentice with consistent one on one training with Joseph and was promoted to Appliance Technician in December, 2023. He does an amazing job caring for our customers and has embraced the same spirit of tenacity and problem solving as his teacher.

Joseph Seeley

With over 35 years of experience as a Master Appliance Technician, Joseph brings to the team a level of expertise that is rare in our industry. He isn’t often stumped by an appliance; but, when he is, he is relentless in his pursuit of an answer and will consult with manufacturers and his vast network of fellow professionals until he figures out the issue. His own words: “I get a rush whenever I fix something” mean that you are in good hands with the nerdiest of nerds when it comes to appliances. He loves what he does and he loves serving you!
