WASHER PROBLEMS
LOUD/CONSISTENT NOISES
The most common reason we make service calls for washers is because the machine is making a loud noise. The most common reason for the noise is typically a worn belt, bad bearing, or a broken pump motor. These are all issues for which we carry the parts and tools needed and can fix the problem the same day.
WON’T TURN ON/AGITATE
When the washing machine won’t turn on, make sure it is getting electricity. Check to make sure it is plugged in and that the circuit breaker has not flipped off. Otherwise, the problem may be from a broken timer, thermal fuse, or door latch. If the washer turns on but does not agitate, the culprit is the transmission, drive belt, agitator cogs, or coupler. Call us and we can fix any of these problems the same day.
WON’T SPIN
A broken wax motor, motor coupling or door latch are the usual reasons your washer will not spin. Don’t start washing your clothes by hand. Call us for same day efficient service. We carry the part to fix this issue for any major brand.
OVERFLOWS
When the washer overflows the trouble is usually caused by trouble with the air dome tube, water inlet valve, or water level pressure switch. These are routine same day repairs. Call us to schedule a same-day service call.
NO HOT/COLD WATER
When the inlet hose or temperature control switch break your washer will not have hot or cold water. We fix this problem routinely. Call us to schedule a service call today.
DRYER PROBLEMS
LOUD/CONSTANT NOISES
Loud noises coming from the dryer are the most common cause of our service calls for dryers. The problem is usually a worn belt lead or broken seal or bearings. We carry the parts and tools to fix these problems the same day you call us.
NO HEAT/WON’T DRY
When the dryer will not heat up, call us for same-day service. This is typically caused by a broken high limit thermostat, cycling thermostat or heating element. Depending on how they malfunction, they can cause your dryer to produce no heat or heat up excessively. Call us to evaluate the issue and fix it today.
WON’T TURN ON/TUMBLE
When the dryer does not turn on, make sure it is plugged in and the circuit breaker is on. When the dryer is plugged in but won’t start or tumble the problem is the high limit thermostat, cycling thermostat, or the heating element. Call us for a same-day service call and we will repair or replace the defective part the same day.
WON’T TURN OFF
When the dryer won’t turn off, this is usually from a broken timer or door switch. We can fix this problem on any brand or model of dryer the same day that you call for help.
