Common washing machine problems we fix
Recognize any of these? Here's the likely cause and how we fix it.
| Symptom | Likely cause | Our fix |
|---|---|---|
| Washer won't drain or spin | Clogged or failed drain pump, or an object caught in the pump impeller | Clear the pump filter, remove debris (coins, hairpins), and replace the drain pump if the impeller or motor has failed |
| Washer shakes violently on spin | Worn suspension rods (top-load) or shock absorbers and worn tub bearings (front-load) | Replace suspension rods or shocks; press in new tub bearings and seal on front-loaders to stop the walking and grinding |
| Washer won't fill or fills slowly | Failed water inlet valve or clogged inlet screens | Clean the inlet screens and test the inlet-valve solenoids, replacing the valve assembly if a coil is open |
| Front-load washer smells or leaves residue | Biofilm in the door boot and detergent drawer, plus a clogged drain filter | Deep-clean the boot and drawer, clear the drain filter, and advise on high-efficiency detergent dosing to prevent recurrence |
| Error code and no start | Failed door lock/latch assembly or a control-board fault | Read the code, test the door lock switch and main control board, and replace the failed component |

Every washing machine repair is different, so we don't quote blind. A flat diagnostic fee covers the visit and on-site diagnosis and applies toward your repair, so you get a firm, upfront price before any work starts. No surprises on the bill.
Repair or replace? If your washing machine is under 8 years old, or the repair costs less than half of a comparable new unit, repair is usually the smart call, and we'll tell you honestly when it isn't.

Washing Machine Repair FAQs
Why won't my washer drain?
The most common cause is a clogged drain pump or filter, often a coin, hairpin, or piece of clothing lodged in the impeller. If the pump motor itself has failed, it needs replacement. We check both on the first visit.
Is a washer bearing replacement worth it?
On a quality front-loader under 7–8 years old, yes. Bearings cost a fraction of a new machine. On an older builder-grade unit the job can approach replacement cost, so we quote it honestly before starting.
