Common Issues

Washer problems, diagnosed and fixed

Pick what's going on with your washer — see common causes and exactly how we fix it.

Washer won't drain at end of cycle

Water sits in the drum after the cycle completes, clothes come out soaking wet. Usually a clogged filter or failed pump.

Common Causes

  • Clogged drain pump filter (coins, buttons, lint)
  • Failed drain pump motor
  • Kinked or blocked drain hose
  • Broken pressure switch
  • Debris stuck in door boot

How We Fix It

We open the pump access panel, clear debris from filter and impeller, test pump motor with multimeter, replace pump or pressure switch if failed. Most cases resolved in under an hour with parts on the truck.

Drum not spinning properly

Cycle runs but clothes come out wet — drum either doesn't spin at all or barely turns. Several mechanical causes possible.

Common Causes

  • Worn or broken drive belt
  • Broken motor coupling
  • Failed motor control board
  • Unbalanced load sensor stuck
  • Damaged door lock switch

How We Fix It

We diagnose by listening to motor behavior, replace worn belt or coupling, test motor and control board electrically. Genuine OEM parts for major brands stocked on the truck — most jobs done same-day.

Water on the floor under the washer

Puddle forming under or around the washer. Usually a hose, gasket, or pump seal — easy to identify, fast to fix.

Common Causes

  • Cracked or loose fill hoses
  • Damaged door boot or gasket
  • Worn tub seal
  • Cracked drain pump housing
  • Overfilling from faulty water valve

How We Fix It

We isolate the leak source within minutes, replace failed hoses, gaskets, or pump components. Floor protection from start to finish — your laundry room stays dry.

Banging, grinding, or squealing sounds

Loud noises during spin cycle, mid-wash thumping, or high-pitched squealing — each sound points to a specific component.

Common Causes

  • Worn drum bearings (grinding on spin)
  • Loose drive belt (squealing)
  • Broken tub damper or spring
  • Foreign object trapped in drum
  • Worn shock absorbers

How We Fix It

We identify the sound by frequency and timing, replace bearings or shock absorbers, remove trapped objects, restore quiet operation. Bearing replacement is our most-requested washer repair.

Washer won't power on or start cycle

Press the button — nothing. Or display lights up but cycle won't begin. Electrical or control issue.

Common Causes

  • Tripped circuit breaker
  • Faulty door lock switch
  • Failed main control board
  • Broken start button or touch panel
  • Damaged power cord

How We Fix It

We verify power supply, test door lock with multimeter, diagnose main control board for faults. Most cases require swapping door switch or control board — both stocked for major brands.

Door won't lock or unlock

Cycle won't start because the door doesn't lock, or finishes but door stays locked. Common in front-loaders.

Common Causes

  • Failed door lock assembly
  • Broken latch mechanism
  • Faulty control board signal
  • Door alignment off
  • Worn door hinge

How We Fix It

We test the lock with multimeter, replace door lock assembly or latch components, realign door if needed. Most repairs done same-day with OEM parts on the truck.

Our washer was leaking and another company quoted me $400. These guys fixed it for half that. Honest people.

Our Bosch dishwasher started making a horrible grinding noise. Tom came the next morning, diagnosed it in five minutes, fixed it the same day. Easy.
