How much does dryer repair cost?
The visit is $99 and it comes off the bill if you go ahead with the repair on the same visit. The repair is quoted in writing first.
My dryer takes three cycles to dry a load.
Far more often the duct run than the heater. Lint builds in the run rather than in the filter, and clearing it is cheaper than any part. We check that before quoting anything.
Is a blocked dryer vent actually dangerous?
Yes. Restricted airflow makes the machine run hotter than it was designed to, which is how dryer fires start. If we find a badly blocked run we will tell you plainly, whether or not it is what you called us about.
The drum turns but there is no heat.
An element, a thermal fuse, or a gas valve. Worth knowing: a thermal fuse that has blown is usually reporting restricted airflow rather than failing on its own, so replacing it alone fixes nothing.
There is a squealing or thumping noise.
A belt, an idler pulley or a drum roller. All three are inexpensive wear parts and the repair is normally done on the visit.
My condenser dryer is leaving clothes damp.
Usually a blocked condenser or a pump that is not clearing the water. A condenser machine moves moisture into a tank or a drain instead of outside, so that circuit is where it fails.
Is my heat-pump dryer meant to take this long?
Often, yes. Heat-pump dryers run much cooler and much longer per cycle by design. We will tell you if yours is normal rather than selling you a repair you do not need.
Can you clean the vent as well?
We clear what is reachable from the machine and tell you honestly if the run itself needs a duct cleaner. A long run through a wall is their job, not ours.
What warranty do you give?
Parts and labour for up to 365 days depending on the part.
Which areas do you cover?
53 cities and neighborhoods across Los Angeles and the Conejo Valley, from the Conejo Valley to Long Beach. The full list is further down this page.
