Common Washer and Dryer Problems
Appliances can fail when we need them the most. If you would rather get back on schedule and skip the DIY washer and dryer repair videos, our washer and dryer repair professionals can fix it in no time. Are you having any of these washer and dryer problems?
My Washing Machine Is Not Filling with Water
This is the most common issue that we hear from clients. The problem can originate from hose complications, disconnected faucets, or faulty switches and valves. Some problems are easily solved yourself, while others require the help of an Auburn washer and dryer repair specialist.
My Washing Machine Is Not Agitating
The agitator’s role is evenly moving the clothes through water and detergent. This occurs when the transmission output shaft rotates properly, but issues may arise from the drive motor coupling being damaged, the agitator being clogged, or a frayed drive belt.
My Washing Machine Is Noisy or Wobbling
All machines make some level of noise, but if the noise goes beyond the traditional humming and spinning, this is a sign that there may be a deeper issue. Similarly, excessive moving or frequent shifting is an indicator to schedule a diagnostic test to prevent total replacement or costlier repairs later.
My Clothes Are Not Drying
This can be a power issue, a clogged vent, or a broken belt or switch. You can try using this dryer troubleshooting guide for help or schedule services with your local washer and dryer repair company to receive reliable assistance.
My Clothes Smell Musty After Drying
For your clothes to dry, hot air is blown inside your dryer unit while hot, humid air emits outside through the exhaust duct. Sometimes, the duct can become blocked with lint, debris, dog hair, or a small object. This results in mold forming and clothes having a musty or foul odor after drying in the dryer.
My Dryer Is Not Turning on After Starting
If you’ve checked the power chord and circuit breaker and verified that nothing obstructs the lid from fully closing, calling a repair specialist should be your next step. We have technicians knowledgeable about how your appliance brand is configured to find the root cause of the problem.
What Our Service Repair Process Looks Like
A fully licensed washer and dryer repair technician will diagnose, quote, and fix your appliance(s) the same or the next day. We offer competitive pricing and will waive the service call fee if hired. Additionally, there is a three-month warranty on all parts and services provided.

How Should I Prepare for My Service Appointment?
To prepare for our Auburn appliance repair specialists, there are a few things you can do to make it easier for you and the technician. The first thing is to clear your schedule. This can help ensure that you will be around to answer any questions about the issue your broken appliance the technician may have.
Another thing you can do is to make sure there are no obstructions to your appliance. For example, if your appliance is in a closet and you store items in it, like cooking equipment, we recommend removing them so our repair specialist has a clear path to your washer or dryer.
And if you have pets, it’s a good idea to keep them out of the room where our repair specialists are doing appliance repairs. This makes it easier for everyone; your pets don’t get stressed out by seeing a stranger, you don’t have to worry about any accidents, and our repair specialists can do the repair job without interruptions.
Should I Repair or Replace My Appliances?
Knowing the average life cycle can help you decide if repairing or replacing is right for you. The general life expectancy of common home appliances is as follows:
- Washing machines: 11 years
- Dryers (electric and gas): 13 years
- Gas range stoves: 10 to 18 years
- Electric range stoves: 13 to 15 years
- Stove ranges and oven hoods: 14 years
- Refrigerators: 14 years
- Garbage disposals: 12 years
- Freezers: 10 to 20 years
- Microwaves: nine years
- Dishwashers: nine years
With the average cost for a washing machine repair being $300 and the average price to fix a dryer estimated around $150, there are many factors to consider as your best option.
You can learn more about your appliance lifecycle and factors from our appliance repair experts by contacting us or when they come to your home to diagnose your appliance’s issues.
Your Washer or Dryer’s Efficiency
In addition to its life cycle, you also want to consider your washer’s or dryer’s efficiency.
If your washer or dryer is an older model, it may cost you more to continue to use these appliances. You may need more water, detergent, or energy than a newer model.
You also want to consider the features of your washer or dryer. If you plan on washing a lot of clothes, it only makes sense to have a washer that is energy efficient.
How Long Will It Take to Repair My Washer or Dryer?
The time it takes for our appliance repair team to complete your repair depends on the severity of your washer or dryer’s problem. If it’s a simple fix like a clogged dryer vent, it shouldn’t take about 20 minutes.
But if it’s a more severe issue, like your washer isn’t filling with water, this usually requires more work because it’s most likely an issue with the switches or valves, which will take longer. But no matter what problem your washer or dryer has, our repair specialists will fix it as fast as we can so you can get back to doing your laundry comfortably.
Is It Worth It to Have My Washer or Dryer Repaired?
You may think it’s easier to buy a new washer or dryer.
One of the factors that may ultimately play a role in your decision is cost. It may make sense to have your washer or dryer repaired instead of replaced.
Getting replacement parts for your washer or dryer is not as expensive as it sounds. It may also be more affordable for you to hire a technician who can repair your washer or dryer (or both).
In general, if the repair costs are less than the replacement costs of your appliances, you may want to consider repairs.
