WASHER PROBLEMS

LOUD/CONSISTENT NOISES

The most common reason we are called for washer repairs is a loud noise emanating from the appliance. We will identify the source and reason for the noise and fix the problem by repairing it or replacing the part. Broken pump motors, worn belts, and bad bearings are the usual reasons for washer noise.

WON’T TURN ON/AGITATE

The first thing if your washing machine does not turn on is to check to make sure it is plugged in and that the circuit breakers did not flip off. Broken timers, thermal fuses, or door latches are common reasons a washer will not turn on. When it does not agitate, there is a problem with agitator cogs, the drive belt, a coupler, thermal fuse, or a bad transmission. Depending on the severity of the problem you may be able to get by with repairs or may need to replace parts.

WON’T SPIN

When your washer won’t spin the trouble is with the wax motor, motor coupling, or door latch. These are all issues that we can repair promptly on a single visit and have your clothes spinning in the washer again.

OVERFLOWS 

A washer overflows when there is a bad water level pressure switch, water inlet valve, or air dome tube on the machine. We fix all of these problems.

NO HOT/COLD WATER

When the water in the washer is either too cold or too hot, the issue is usually with an inlet hose or a broken temperature control switch. Call us to repair the problem.

DRYER PROBLEMS

LOUD/CONSTANT NOISES

Loud noises are the most common reason for service calls for dryers. These noises come from broken seals, bearings, or worn belts. We carry the parts and tools to fix these problems on all major brands and models.

NO HEAT/WON’T DRY

When a dryer does not produce enough heat to dry your clothes it is pretty useless. It is also a problem if the dryer gets too hot and scorches your garments. The problem will be a broken cycling thermostat, high limit thermostat, or heating element for both issues. Call us and one of our certified technicians will diagnose and fix the problem.

WON’T TURN ON/TUMBLE

The most common reason that a dryer will not tumble is because it is not plugged in. Check this and make sure the circuit breaker has not flipped. Then call us if there is still an issue. The problem will be with the high limit thermostat, cycling thermostat, or heating element which will need to be repaired or replaced.

WON’T TURN OFF

A broken timer or door switch may not let the dryer turn off. Call us to fix this problem.

TIMER WON’T ADVANCE

If the dryer does not advance and complete the drying cycle, the problem is the timer motor or cycling thermostat. We carry the part and tools to do this job promptly and efficiently.
