Symptoms that your washer needs repair: Symptoms that your dryer needs repair:
  • Poor wash performance
  • Noisy during the spin cycle
  • Sounds like something rattling during operation
  • Moving around on the floor
  • Leaking water
  • Giving an error code
  • Taking a long time to dry (this can also be a sign that you need a dryer vent cleaning)
  • Scraping or squeaking noise when the dryer is running
  • Burning smell or unit seems hot to the touch
  • Rattling noise or sounds like something is loose
  • Brown or black marks on clothing
  • Something just isn’t right and you know you need appliance repair

Why it’s important to have your laundry appliances serviced periodically:

  • Dirty or poorly performing washers mean dirty clothes! If your agitator isn’t working, the clothes aren’t getting clean.
  • Little problems become big problems when ignored. Allowing the unit to operate dirty is taxing on all the components of the appliance, resulting in longer runs times on dryers, and components failing earlier.

Our expert technicians will evaluate your washer or dryer and let you know if changes are needed.

The customer's dryer was making scraping and scratching noises caused by a drum that had warped out of round and was damaging the cabinet interior. We replaced the drum, cleared the rollers and idler wheel to address intermittent squeaking, and replaced the flexible foil venting with rigid metal semi-flex venting after discovering the original vent line was kinked and causing a clogged exhaust error. Job complete. Technician inspected the drum and found it out of round with visible scratching against the right side cabinet wall. Replaced drum assembly (DC97-23529A), serviced rollers (DC97-16782E) and idler assembly (DC93-00634A), and replaced kinked foil flex venting with metal semi-rigid venting (DFLX8) to resolve CLG error code caused by restricted exhaust airflow.
