Dryer repair service

While most complaints about the dryer are that it just doesn’t dry, we know there are more reasons why it does not work properly. DIY repair methods are not reliable enough because it's difficult to figure out what's actually causing the dryer to fail. Whatever is going wrong, the best option you can take is to hire a dryer repair service.

Dryers have greatly simplified laundry and shortened the time needed to do it. No longer do you have to take the clothes out on the line to dry, you simply set a timer and everything is done in much less time. Few things can be as frustrating as a piece of laundry that does not work after washing.

Dryer doesn’t spin

The clothes dryer heats and works as usual, but sometimes it seems that it does not spin. In most cases, there are two reasons that lead to such a problem. The first and most common problem is a worn or defective belt, which is used in any dryer to turn the drum. Over time, it can stretch or break. The other problem is a small element attached to the spinning belt - the idler pulley, which is responsible for tensioning the drum belt and allowing the motor to pull the belt. Both parts should be replaced inside the dryer housing.

Dryer problems

Aside from obvious reasons such as a faulty circuit breaker, the most common problem is a defective thermal fuse, in which case it must be replaced. Other common reasons for this problem include a clogged lint collector, a clogged vent, or an overload on the unit. Once a professional discovers the problem, it can be fixed in a matter of minutes.

Dryer won’t turn on

In order for the dryer to generate heat in the drum, airflow is required. This means that a blockage in the dryer vent or dryer filter may be the cause of the problem. Also, both types of dryers (gas and electric) are equipped with thermal fuses and thermal protectors to protect the dryer from overheating or fire; if these are defective or simply blown, the dryer will not heat either. The most serious problems are a faulty electrical heating element or a damaged gas igniter. A technician can help you find the real cause of the malfunction and fix it quickly and safely.

Dryer is not heating all or not heating properly

Unusual squeaking or grinding noises from the dryer are annoying and worrisome because they indicate serious problems in the machine and, if not corrected, can lead to more serious damage. One of the reasons for the strange noises coming from your dryer may be a loose drum belt sliding around the drum. Worn drum supports or glides that support the front of the drum can also be the reason for the grinding noise. In both cases, the dryer needs to be repaired by replacing the defective parts, and dryer service can be a good help here.
