Common Symptoms
What's Your Dryer Doing?
Pick the problem you're seeing. Each one links to troubleshooting guidance so you understand the likely cause before we arrive.
No Heat
Drum turns but clothes stay wet. A heating element, thermal fuse, or gas igniter is the usual culprit on electric and gas dryers.
Troubleshoot thisNot Tumbling
Drum won't turn? Often a broken belt, worn drum support, or failed motor. We get it spinning again.
Troubleshoot thisTaking Too Long to Dry
Long dry times usually mean a restricted vent — which is also a fire risk. We repair the dryer and can clean the vent.
Troubleshoot thisLoud Squeaking or Squealing
High-pitched squeaks often come from worn drum rollers, idler pulleys, or glides. Best fixed before they fail completely.
Troubleshoot thisWon't Start
Dead dryer? We check the thermal fuse, door switch, start switch, and control board.
Troubleshoot thisShuts Off Mid-Cycle
Overheating or a faulty moisture sensor can shut a dryer down early. We trace the cause and clear the safety fault.
Troubleshoot thisBurning Smell
A burning or hot-plastic smell is a warning sign — often lint buildup or a failing part. Stop using it and call us.
Troubleshoot thisNot sure what’s wrong? That’s exactly what we’re here for — we’ll diagnose your dryer in person and explain it in plain language.
Honest Guidance
Repair or Replace Your Dryer?
Dryers are one of the most repair-friendly appliances — heating elements, belts, fuses, and rollers are inexpensive and fast to replace. We rarely recommend replacing a dryer over a single failed part. The one exception worth knowing: if your dryer also has a badly restricted vent, that's a safety issue we can resolve with a vent cleaning at the same visit.
The smartest call depends on your dryer’s age, brand, and the cost of the repair versus replacement. Our calculator walks you through the factors.
Internal Blower & Duct Restorations
Over 80% of dryer heating failures start with choked internal airflow. We clean the blower assembly during repair so the problem stays solved.
Not Sure What to Do?
Use our Repair vs. Replace Calculator, or talk to an appliance expert — no pressure, just a straight answer.
When repair no longer makes financial sense, we can also help you explore replacement options.

ViewQuestions & Answers
Dryer Repair FAQ
Straight answers to the questions we hear most about repairing your appliance.
Do you repair gas and electric dryers?
Yes, both. Our technicians are trained on gas and electric dryers from every major brand, including igniter and gas-valve repairs on gas models.
My dryer takes forever to dry — is the dryer broken or the vent?
Long dry times are often a restricted vent rather than the dryer itself — and a clogged vent is a fire risk. We diagnose which it is and can clean your dryer vent during the same visit if needed.
Can you clean my dryer vent while you repair my dryer?
Yes. Dryer vent cleaning is one of our services, and it pairs naturally with a dryer repair visit. A clean vent also helps your dryer run safely and efficiently.
