When to Call an Expert: Washing Machine Repair

For the washing machine to clean clothes, the drum needs to spin.

Today, we rely on home appliances like air conditioners, fridges, stoves, and microwaves to meet daily needs. If one of these appliances stops working, it can disrupt daily routines. In this blog, we'll focus on washing machines and how to tell if they need fixing or replacing. We've made a list of signs to look for.

Washing machines usually make some noise when washing clothes, but if the noise is excessive, the washer might be off balance. Try rearranging the clothes so they're spread out evenly around the agitator. If that doesn't work, check if the washer is level. If noise persists, a repair service should be contacted. The drum or motor mount might be loose, causing the problem.

Normally, water should fill the drum when starting the washing machine. If that's not happening, a few things could be wrong. There might be a kink in the hose, the hot and cold water faucets might not be turned on, or there could be a delay in the cycle selection. Check if the filter is clogged or if there's an issue with the water valve and respond accordingly. If it still doesn't fill, reach out to a repair company.

For the washing machine to clean clothes, the drum needs to spin. If it's not spinning, check the belts and the lid switch. Changing the belt is doable independently, but fixing the lid switch might need professional help.

Sometimes, it can be hard to figure out exactly what's wrong with a washing machine because it has many complex parts. A home appliance repair expert can quickly identify and fix the problem and return essential functioning.
