Dryers we fix
What we hear on dryer calls
Electric dryers that blow cold usually come down to a blown fuse, an element coil that has snapped, or a cycling thermostat past its prime. On gas, it is the igniter or the valve coils. Rollers, idler pulleys and belts cause the squeals and the thumps. We test each part on the circuit, look at the vent while we are there, and give you the price before work starts.
Runs but stays cold
On electric models: the thermal fuse, the element or the high-limit. On gas: a worn igniter or valve coils that have tired out.
Takes two cycles
A restricted vent, a weak element, or moisture-sensor bars glazed over by dryer sheets.
Drum will not turn
A snapped belt, a seized idler pulley, or a motor that hums and stops.
Squeals or thumps
Worn drum rollers, a glide pad, or a dry idler bearing.
Shuts off early
A blocked lint path, a failing motor switch, or a control reading the wrong temperature.
Cabinet hot to the touch
Unplug it and let us look: that heat points to a blocked vent or a cycling thermostat stuck closed.
In your home
Dryer Repair where the dryer stands
Long, damp vent runs sit behind a lot of dryer calls here. Older houses route the duct through a crawlspace; condo stacks send it up and across a ceiling. Lint settles where the air cools, the dryer overheats, and the thermal fuse blows again a month later. We check the airflow at the outside hood so a new fuse is not the only fix.
The damp months matter. When outdoor air sits near saturation, a dryer with a marginal vent stretches every load. Heat-pump and condensing dryers, showing up in more new Seattle apartments, never use a duct, so their trouble shows up as clogged condenser filters and drain pumps instead. We service both kinds.

Tell us what is wrong
Ring us or fill in the booking card: which machine, what it does, your ZIP. A person calls back to agree on a time, any of the seven days, 8 AM–7 PM.

A meter, not a hunch
At your door the technician confirms power first, runs a cycle, then takes readings on the parts that fit the symptom. The diagnosis comes from numbers on the meter.

A cost you can hold
Before a screw is turned, the repair cost is written out for you. Say yes, and the visit charge is swallowed by that figure. Say no, and only the trip gets billed, with our notes left in your hands.

Fixed, and on paper
Igniters, pumps, fuses and valves ride along in the van, which lets plenty of jobs close out in a single trip. Parts we need to order get a return date pinned down before we leave. Your invoice lists the warranty in plain terms.

FAQ
Dryers: questions we hear
Do you clean dryer vents?
We clear the stretch of duct within reach as part of a dryer repair. Runs that climb through a roof or cross a building need a duct-cleaning crew, and we say when it has come to that.
Is a burning smell normal?
A short whiff after a long idle spell can be dust on the element. A smell that keeps returning, or scorched lint near the door, means the dryer should stay off until we have looked at it.
Do you work on gas dryers?
Yes. We test igniters and valve coils, and we check the gas connection for leaks after any repair on the gas side.
Do you repair ventless dryers?
Yes, both condensing and heat-pump models. Their filters and condensers need regular rinsing, and we show you where they are.
Will you take the dryer apart in my closet?
Most repairs happen right where the dryer stands. Stacked pairs sometimes have to be separated, which we handle.
