Frequently asked questions
Why is my dryer not heating?
On electric dryers this is often a failed heating element or thermal fuse; on gas dryers it is usually the igniter or valve coils. Both are common same-day repairs.
My dryer takes forever to dry — what is wrong?
Long dry times are frequently caused by a clogged vent, a weak heating element, or a faulty thermostat. A clogged vent is also a fire risk, so it is worth addressing promptly.
Do you repair gas dryers?
Yes, our technicians safely service both electric and gas dryers.
Is a noisy dryer safe to keep using?
A squeal or thump usually means worn rollers, glides, or a belt. It is best to repair it before the part fails completely and causes more damage.
