WASHER PROBLEMS

LOUD/CONSISTENT NOISES

The most likely reason we will show up for a washer repair is because of loud noises your washer is making. We will check out the loud noise and tell you if we can repair it or if we need to replace a broken part. A broken pump motor, damaged bearings, or a worn belt are the most common reasons for washer noises.

WON’T TURN ON/AGITATE

When the washing machine does not turn on, make sure the circuit breaker is not flipped off and that the machine is plugged in. Broken door latches, non-functioning timers, and burned out thermal fuses are common reasons that a washer won’t turn on. The machine will not agitate if the transmission is damaged, the drive belt is not working correctly, or the agitator cogs are broken.

WON’T SPIN

When a washer won’t spin you have a problem with the door latch, wax motor, or motor coupling. We will fix these issues on the spot with a same-day service call.

OVERFLOWS

When a washer overflows the air dome tube is not working, the water level pressure switch is damaged, or the water inlet valve is broken. As soon as you finish mopping up the floor, call us for same-day repairs.

NO HOT/COLD WATER

When your washing machine does not produce either hot or cold water the problem is with the inlet hose or temperature control switch. Call us and we will send a certified technician to make speedy repairs..

DRYER PROBLEMS

LOUD/CONSTANT NOISES

The most frequent reason we get called to fix dryers is because the appliance is making loud noises. The noise is usually from a bad seal, a worn belt, or a broken bearing. We can fix any of these of a brief, same-day service call.

NO HEAT/WON’T DRY

Call us if your dryer doesn’t heat up. You usually will have a broken heating element, malfunctioning high limit thermostat, or damaged cycling thermostat. The same things may cause your dryer to run too hot as well. Our certified repairman will diagnose the problem and fix or replace the broken part.

WON’T TURN ON/TUMBLE

When the dryer does not turn on, make sure it is getting electricity. Check the circuit breaker and make sure the machine is plugged in. Common reasons for this problem come from the heating element, cycling thermostat, or high limit thermostat. We will repair or replace the offending parts as needed.

WON’T TURN OFF

When the dryer will not stop running, call us instead of just unplugging the appliance. You have a bad timer or a broken door switch, both of which we can quickly fix on a short, same-day service call.

TIMER WON’T ADVANCE

When the dryer does not advance there is a damaged thermostat, broken cycling thermostat, or bad timer motor. We will fix any of these on a short service call.
