- Dryer lint trap is not collecting lint properly
- Dryer is causing clothes to shrink or overheat

- Unusual Noises – If your washing machine is making banging, grinding, or squeaking noises, it could indicate a problem with the drum, bearings, or motor. However, these sounds could also be caused by an unbalanced load or loose components inside the unit.
- Water Leaks – Leaks around the washing machine may point to issues with the door seal, hoses, or water inlet valve. Sometimes, it might just be an improperly loaded machine or a clogged detergent dispenser.
- Excessive Vibration – A washing machine that vibrates excessively might have an unevenly distributed load, but it could also be due to worn-out shock absorbers or a misaligned drum. Leaving this unchecked can lead to further damage.
- Failure to Start – When the machine won’t turn on, it might be as simple as a power connection issue, but it could also indicate problems with the control board, door latch, or internal wiring.
- Water Won’t Fill or Drain – If water doesn’t fill or drain properly, the problem could lie with the inlet valve, pump, or a clogged filter. A kinked hose or an electrical issue could also be contributing factors.
- Clothes Come Out Soaked – Clothes that are overly wet after a cycle might mean the spin cycle isn’t functioning properly. This could result from a faulty motor, belt, or drainage issue.
- Error Codes on the Display – Error codes are your washing machine’s way of communicating an issue. These could point to anything from minor electrical glitches to serious mechanical faults. Decoding and resolving these codes often requires professional expertise.
- Incomplete or Stuck Cycles – If your washing machine gets stuck mid-cycle or doesn’t complete a wash, there might be a problem with the timer, control board, or sensors. Alternatively, it could be due to power interruptions.
- Excessive Time for Cycles – Washing cycles that take much longer than usual might indicate issues with the water inlet, sensors, or a malfunctioning heating element. A clogged filter or low water pressure could also slow things down.
- Discoloration or Residue on Clothes – If your clothes come out stained or with detergent residue, it could be due to buildup in the drum, a clogged detergent drawer, or a malfunctioning rinse cycle. Regular maintenance can help prevent this.

Frequently Asked Questions
A dryer that isn’t heating could be due to a faulty heating element, a broken thermostat, a clogged vent, or an electrical issue. Our technicians can diagnose the problem and provide a quick, reliable repair.
If your dryer is not drying clothes efficiently, the issue could be a clogged lint trap, a blocked vent, or a failing heating element. Regular maintenance and professional servicing can help restore proper drying performance.
Unusual sounds like banging, squeaking, or grinding can indicate worn-out drum rollers, a damaged belt, or loose components. It’s best to have a professional inspect and fix the issue before it worsens.
A dryer that stops running before the cycle completes may have an overheating issue, a faulty thermal fuse, or a malfunctioning control board. We can pinpoint the exact cause and repair it efficiently.
Check if the dryer is plugged in and the circuit breaker is on. If that’s not the issue, the problem could be with the door switch, start switch, or thermal fuse. Our experts can troubleshoot and fix the problem quickly.
Most repairs can be completed within the same day, depending on the issue. Our technicians arrive fully equipped to handle most common dryer problems on the spot.
Error codes indicate specific problems, such as airflow blockages, heating failures, or sensor malfunctions. Our team can diagnose the code and provide a solution.
Some minor issues like cleaning the lint trap or checking the power supply can be done yourself, but most repairs require professional expertise to ensure safety and proper function.
Dryers can sometimes leak due to condensation buildup in the vent system, a clogged drain hose (for ventless dryers), or excessive humidity in the laundry room. Our technicians can assess and fix the issue.
Repair costs depend on the issue and required parts. We provide upfront pricing with no hidden fees after diagnosing the problem.
If your dryer is less than 8–10 years old and the repair cost is reasonable, it’s usually worth fixing. If it’s older and requires frequent repairs, replacing it may be more cost-effective.
Clean the lint trap after every load, ensure the vent is free of blockages, avoid overloading the dryer, and schedule regular professional inspections.
