Dryer Repair
Dryer trouble? We fix them the same day where we can, across Pinal and Maricopa County, and you get the price before anyone picks up a screwdriver.
What we see most on dryers
Tumbling but not heating is the thermal fuse or the heating element, and a thermal fuse almost never blows without a reason. That reason is nearly always poor airflow, so if you replace the fuse without clearing the vent, the new one just blows too.
Symptoms worth calling about
Any of these on a dryer is worth a look. Several are cheap early and expensive once something else has been damaged.
- Tumbling but not heating
- Taking two or three cycles to dry a load
- Not tumbling at all
- Shutting off partway through
- Squealing or grinding while running

What fails most often on a dryer here in Arizona?

-
Anything worth checking myself before I book someone?
Pull the vent hose off the back and check it, and make sure the flap outside opens. A blocked vent is the most common cause we see. It's also a real fire risk, so do this today either way. If that does not sort it, call us and we will come and look at it properly.
-
What does a dryer repair usually run?
Figure $50 to $100 for the diagnostic call and $150 to $600 for a typical repair with parts. You get a flat rate before anyone starts, and that is the number you pay however long it ends up taking.
-
Is a dryer this age worth fixing?
Two things decide it: how old it is, and what the fix costs. Past halfway through its life with a repair over half the price of new, replace it. Young machine, one failed part, fix it every time. Our tech will tell you which one you have, including when the honest answer is not to spend the money with us.
-
Do you work on commercial dryers?
Not today. We are a residential shop, so restaurant and commercial equipment is outside what we take on. Better you hear that now than after waiting in for a visit we would have to turn down.
