Common repairs

What's wrong with your dryer?

Dryers fail in a few predictable ways. Here's what we see most often:

No heatOn an electric dryer: the heating element, thermal fuse or high-limit thermostat. On a gas dryer: the igniter, flame sensor or gas valve coils.Book this repair → Takes forever to dryMost often a restricted vent — lint in the duct, a crushed hose or a stuck outside flap. Sometimes a moisture sensor or a weak heat source.Book this repair → Won't tumbleThe motor runs but the drum doesn't turn: a broken drive belt or a failed idler pulley.

How we work

Diagnosed, not guessed

A dryer needs three things to work: tumbling, heat and airflow. We test each of them, and we always look at the vent — because a clogged vent is behind many "broken" dryers and it's the reason thermal fuses keep blowing.

Belts, rollers, idler pulleys, thermal fuses, thermostats and igniters are common truck parts, so most dryers are drying again the same visit. You approve the price before we start.

Good to know

Quick checks before you call

Some problems have a simple cause you can check yourself in a few minutes. If these don't help, we're a click away.

1
Clean the lint screen
A screen clogged with lint or dryer-sheet film slows everything down. Wash it with warm soapy water if water won't pass through it.
2
Check the outside vent
With the dryer running, you should feel strong airflow at the outside hood. Weak air means a restricted duct.
3
Electric dryer? Check both breakers
An electric dryer uses a double breaker. If one side trips, the drum may turn but never heat.
4
Gas dryer? Make sure the valve is open
After a move or a repair nearby, the gas valve behind the dryer is sometimes left closed.

FAQ

Repair questions

Something else? Give us a call — we always get back to you.

Why does my dryer run but not heat?

On an electric dryer, the most common causes are a burned-out heating element, a blown thermal fuse or a tripped breaker on one side. On a gas dryer, a weak igniter or worn gas valve coils. All are routine repairs.

Is a clogged dryer vent dangerous?

Lint is very flammable, and a blocked vent makes the dryer run hotter and longer. If drying times keep growing or the top of the dryer gets hot, have the vent checked.

Do you work on gas dryers?

Yes, we repair both gas and electric dryers, including ignition and gas valve problems.

Is it worth repairing an older dryer?

Dryers are simple machines, and the parts that wear out — belts, rollers, fuses, elements and igniters — are inexpensive. Repair is usually the better deal.
