There was a block in the vent for this LG gas dryer, which caused lint build up inside the machine. This is a fire hazard. If your clothes are not dry at the end of the cycle, this could be happening. Make sure to have it checked out before continued use. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #dryervent #lint #firehazard #westvancouver
Sometimes accidents just happen. Here we replaced the inner pane of glass in the door of a Whirlpool oven. If this ever happens to you, don't sweat it. It is a pretty straight forward repair. #appliancerepair #ovenrepair #ovendoorglass #vancouver
This Frigidaire fridge had a refrigerant leak, causing the fridge and freezer to stop cooling. There's not much you can do to prevent something like this. If there is any ice build up in the back of your freezer, and you try to clean it out, make sure you are careful not to puncture those coils. #appliancerepair #refrigeratorrepair #refrigerantleak #fridgenotworking #northvancouver
This KitchenAid dishwasher had a failed control board. There is not much you can do to prevent this from happening. It just needs to be replaced. #appliancerepair #dishwasherrepair #controlboard #electronics #vancouver
There was a pair of underwear blocking the fill hose in this Whirlpool washer. It is bizarre because that would normally end up in the drain filter. All the water was spraying out of the soap dish when it was filling. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #clog #leak #leakywashingmachine #fillhose #vancouver
These are the two drum to drain pump hoses from a compact Samsung washer after the repair. *See previous post. I always put this white clip on the smaller hose so there is some space between them, preventing the two hoses from rubbing together during use. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #leakywashingmachine #samsungwashingmachine #designflaw #vancouver
These are the hoses from the drum to the drain pump on a compact Samsung washer. The two hoses rub together during use which eventually wears a hole in the smaller hose. TIP: This hose is expensive. You can buy the entire drain pump assembly, which includes that hose, for cheaper than buying the hose alone. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #leakywashingmachine #wornhose #vancouver
This is a torn door gasket from a compact Samsung washer. This seems to happen often on these machines. There's not much you can do to prevent this except emptying all your pockets before washing a load of laundry. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #torndoorgasket #leakywashingmachine #doorseal #leak #vancouver
This Whirlpool washer has an excessively moldy door gasket. I replace a lot of these due to mold, which is easily prevented. Don't use too much detergent and leave the door open so it can dry out after use. I would recommend drying it with a rag after all the laundry is done for the day. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #doorgasket #mold #moldprevention #vancouver
Here is another failed Samsung dryer bearing. I'm sure seeing a lot of these lately. This one also destroyed the shaft on the drum that slides into the bearing. Now, it is an expensive repair. If you hear high pitched squeaking sounds coming from your dryer, have it checked before more damage occurs. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #samsung #bearing #squeakydryer #eastvancouver
These are thermostats on the heating assembly from a compact Samsung dryer. The thermostat on the right has a tiny white button on it which resets it. If you have one of these dryers and it stops heating, this is likely the culprit. You have to remove the back cover to reset it so make sure you unplug the dryer or turn it off at the breaker before you do anything. You may also want to check if it is venting properly. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #dryernotheating #thermostat #samsung #vancouver
This is the remains of a bath mat in an LG washer. Pictured is the drain filter. The drain pump, the circulation pump and the tub to drain hose were all packed full of these tiny pieces of plastic. #appliancerepair #appliancerepairvancouver #washerrepair #lgwasher #cloggeddrain #bathmat #drainfilter
Here is a failed element from a Frigidaire dryer. In general, these dryers are fantastic. They don't break down often and when they do, it's a quick, easy fix. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #frigidaire #brokenelement #dryernotheating #vancouver #eastvan
There was a serious fire hazard forming in this Samsung dryer. It was due to a partial blockage in the venting, causing lint to back up into the appliance. If your dryer is taking longer than normal to dry your clothes, it's best to have it checked out immediately. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #blocked #dryervent #firehazard #vancouver
Here is a failed bearing next to a new one from a compact Samsung dryer. When this part fails, you will hear a high pitched squeaking sound which can be intermittent at first. It's important to get this issue addressed as soon as possible. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #failedbearing #squeakydryer #samsung #vancouver
This compact Samsung washer had a small hole worn in its hose assembly. This is common with these washers. The two hoses rub together during use which slowly wears a hole in the smaller hose (this part is expensive). I tape the hoses together when I do this repair to prevent it from happening again. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #samsung #leak #hoses #vancouver
These are failed rollers from an LG dryer. Usually, this will happen to either the front or the back rollers but in this case, it was both. I could barely spin the drum by hand. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #LG #rollers #vancouver
There was a leak coming from the left solenoid on this cold water inlet valve from an LG washer. There's nothing you can really do to prevent this issue. If the valve is leaking or gets stuck in the open or closed position, the valve just needs replacing. #appliancerepair #appliancerepairvancouver #washerrepair #inletvalve #LG #leak #vancouver
This Whirlpool laundry center had a failed lid switch. It is a safety switch to stop the washer if the lid is open. If your washer fills and then stops, you likely have a broken lid switch. To prevent this switch from breaking, close the lid gently every time. It is only glued together. #appliancerepair #appliancerepairvancouver #washerrepair #whirlpool #lidswitch #vancouver
This LG washing machine had a small tear in the door gasket. If your front load washer is leaking, this may be the issue. It is easy to check for damage on these seals. You may also want to replace it if there is mold present. #appliancerepair #appliancerepairvancouver #leak #doorgasket #lgwasher #vancouver
This Whirlpool dryer had a blown component on its control board. Sometimes, this can be fixed by soldering it. The board is quite pricey if it needs to be replaced. In this case, the board was no longer available. #appliancerepair #appliancerepairvancouver #dryerrepair #whirlpool #controlboard #vancouver
Here is worn bearing from a compact Samsung dryer. It was making intermittent, high pitched scraping sounds. It is important to have this issue addressed quickly. If the shaft that sits in that bearing gets too worn, the entire drum would need to be replaced. #appliancerepair #appliancerepairvancouver #samsungdryer #bearing
This Frigidaire dryer had a worn bearing causing an unbearable screeching sound. It was actually a good thing because there was a serious fire hazard forming (usually due to poor venting). The lint build up near the element had all been on fire. Don't wait for this to happen to you. Schedule your dryer maintenance today! #appliancerepair #appliancerepairvancouver #dryerrepair #frigidaire #bearing #firehazard #vancouver
I'm not sure how this happened but there is a large crack that formed in the drum of this Samsung dryer. Everything else in the dryer seemed to be fine but it sure was noisy! If your dryer is making unusual sounds, it is best to have it looked at before it breaks down. #appliancerepair #appliancerepairvancouver #dryerrepair #samsungdryer #drum #crackeddrum #vancouver
I'm sure seeing a lot of Samsung dryers lately. This is the motor and an idler pulley from a Samsung dryer. It is a good example of what happens to the belt when the idler pulley fails. It will do this until the belt snaps so it is best to have it checked if you hear any strange sounds during use. #appliancerepair #appliancerepairvancouver #dryerrepair #samsungdryer #idlerpulley #belt #vancouver
Here is a new idler pulley next to another failed idler pulley from a Samsung dryer. This is common with Samsung dryers. The groove is from the belt slipping. This will make high pitched squeaking sounds which can be intermittent at first. It is important to have this repaired as it can break the belt with continued use. #appliancerepair #appliancerepairvancouver #dryerrepair #idlerpulley #belt #vancouver
This leaky Whirlpool washer had multiple tears all the way around the door gasket. If your washer is leaking, check to make sure there are no rips in the gasket. It happens a lot. #appliancerepair #appliancerepairvancouver #washerrepair #doorseal #leak #vancouver
The plastic wheel on this idler pulley came loose and melted from the friction. This part is notorious for failing on Samsung dryers but I don't see this issue very often. If your dryer starts making high pitched sounds during use, it's time have it checked. #appliancerepair #samsung #dryerrepair #idlerpulley #vancouver
The idler pulley failed in this Samsung dryer. The wheel will no longer spin when this happens, causing a high pitched squeaking noise as the belt slips over it. It can be intermittent. With continued use, it will eventually break the belt. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #idler #brokenbelt #squeakydryer #vancouver
This LG washer was not draining. The impeller broke off the drain pump causing a loud grinding noise. Fortunately, the drain pumps for these machines are quite reasonable at about 80 dollars. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #lg #washernotdraining #drainpump #vancouver
The drain filter on this Samsung washer was packed full of coins and nails and some other debris. In this case, the filter did its job and did not prevent the washer from draining. It was a maintenance call for the washer and dryer. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #cloggeddrain #drainfilter #appliancemaintenance #vancouver
This is a heating element for a Whirlpool dryer which was shorting out against the casing. When this happens, the element will stay on, making the dryer too hot. This should cause the thermal fuse to blow as a fire prevention safety mechanism. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #dryeroverheats #whirlpool #thermalfuse #heatingelement #vancouver
Here is another wire to the temperature sensor that has worn through on a Whirlpool washer. That's two in a row! This was a different model than the previous post and returned an f3 e2 error code. I have actually never seen a failed temperature sensor in a Whirlpool washer. It has always been the wiring to it. #appliancerepair #whirlpool #washerrepair #f3e2 #faultywiring #temperaturesensor #vancouver
This is a wire to the temperature sensor on a Whirlpool washer that has worn through over time. It is a common problem. These wires are tightly held together which can cause them to wear. If your washer returns an F05 error code, this is most likely your issue. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #whirlpool #temperaturesensor #f05 #faultywiring #vancouver
The door lock in this Samsung washer had a mechanical failure. They could also fail electrically, which can be tested with a multimeter. There's not a lot you can do to prevent door lock issues. It is a quick fix but the lock can be quite expensive. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #doorlock #vancouver
A leaky drain pump needed replacing on this old Whirlpool washer. It is not a common occurrence with these machines but holes can form over time. This one is a quick, easy fix! #appliancerepair #washerrepair #drainpump #leak #vancouver
The thermal fuse blew in this LG dryer. It is checked by doing a continuity test. This often happens as a safety mechanism if the dryer gets too hot. In this case, the venting was partially blocked. It is a good idea to have some preventative maintenance done to your dryer occasionally. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #dryernotheating #thermostat #thermalfuse
This customer didn't use her dishwasher for many months and this is what mice did to her drain hose. It's hard to tell in the photo, but you can see all the bite marks. I guess they were after the water. #appliancerepair #dishwasher #leak #mice #vancouver
The door gasket on this LG washer is exceptionally disgusting. It should have been changed ages ago. I get A LOT of these from new home owners, including this one. If you are looking to purchase a new home, you should check that all the appliances are clean and run all of them through an entire cycle to make sure they are working properly. #appliancerepair #washerepair #doorgasket #mold #newhomeowner #vancouver
The door seal on this LG washer needed to be changed because of mold issues. I found four holes in it, however, it didn't leak at all. Every hole must have been exactly in the fold so that it didn't leak. I see something new everyday! #appliancerepair #washerepair #doorgasket #leak #mold #vancouver
The drain pump was damaged on this Whirlpool washer. If your washer is making abnormal sounds during the drain cycle, stop using it until it has been checked. Often, debris can be removed before it damages the pump. #appliancerepair #washerepair #drainpump #cloggeddrain #vancouver
There was piece of broken glass stuck in the drain pump of this Whirlpool dishwasher. A bit hard to spot, it's at 4 o'clock. If any glass breaks in your dishwasher, there is a high probability of this happening. #appliancerepair #dishwasherrepair #nodrain #cloggeddrain #vancouver
This looks like sand, but it is all small pieces of a rug that came apart in this LG washer. All the hoses were packed full, preventing it from draining. I recommend to bring items like this to a laundromat. They are just too hard on your machines. #appliancerepair #washerepair #cloggeddrain #rug #vancouver
The wire burned up on the thermostat in this Samsung dryer, causing it to no longer produce heat. This happens occasionally with these cheap connectors. In this case, the thermostat was still working. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #thermostat #dryernotheating #vancouver
The thermistor failed on this Kenmore (Frigidaire) dryer, causing it to stop running mid-cycle. It's a quick, cost effective repair. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #thermistor #vancouver
The control board failed on this Kenmore dryer. It is a pricey repair and not always a cost effective solution, depending on the age and condition of the machine. Fortunately, this customer takes immaculate care of their appliances. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #controlboard #kenmore #f01 #vancouver
The control board failed on this Whirlpool dryer and it melted all the wiring. This is the worst I've seen by far. The wiring paperwork was in there too, which had been on fire. Don't leave the house with your appliances running! #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #dryerfire #controlboard #vancouver
There was a big tear in the door seal on this Maytag washer. Not much to say about this one, except empty your pockets before doing laundry! #appliancerepair #washerepair #doorgasket #leakingwasher #leak
The motor seized and the idler pulley failed on this Samsung dryer. There is so much lint inside, they are lucky there wasn't a fire. It came close, as you can see how charred it is by the heating element. This can happen if your dryer is not venting properly. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #idlerpulley #seizedmotor #firehazard #dryerfire #vancouver
Dryer breakdowns can be a blessing. The belt broke on this Frigidaire washer/dryer combo unit. The controls were completely covered in lint, which could result in a fire. Make sure you clean out the lint trap before every load! #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #lint #firehazard #vancouver
The heating element failed on this Frigidaire washer/dryer combo unit. The replacement is a bit expensive, but has a new thermostat and thermal fuse included. You can keep the old ones just in case the new ones ever fail. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #heatingelement #thermalfuse #thermostat #vancouver
The door seal on this LG washer needed replacement. Here is the washer without the seal or weights. I often recommend LG products because I work on them the least out of all the brands that I work on. #appliancerepair #washerepair #doorgasket #lgappliances #vancouver
This is a failed control board from a Frigidaire range. The model is a basic unit, making it a reasonably priced repair. On most ovens, the control board is quite expensive. #appliancerepair #ovenrepair #controlboard #vancouver
The heating element failed on this Frigidaire dryer. They can just burn out over time. If your dryer isn't heating, it could also be a blown thermal fuse or thermostat. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #dryernotheating #heatingelement #vancouver
This is a worn out bearing kit from an old Frigidaire dryer. When the bearing fails, your dryer will make loud grinding or squeaking noises. It is a simple repair and the parts are inexpensive. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #bearing #noisydryer #vancouver
This Whirlpool washer had a clogged drain filter. Many washers have a small door to access this. On this model, it is hidden behind a removable panel across the bottom, held in place by three screws underneath. If your washer is not draining, this is the first thing to check. You may not need a technician. Just remember, a lot of water will come out. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #cloggeddrain #washernotdraining #vancouver
Here is a blown control board from a Kenmore oven. There is nothing you can really do to prevent this issue, and unfortunately, it is pricey to replace. #appliancerepair #ovenrepair #controlboard #vancouver
This is a failed lid switch from an old Whirlpool top load washer. These break often because they are just glued together and dropping the lid closed can easily damage them. An easy way to prevent this issue from happening is to close the lid gently every time. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #lidswitch #washernotdraining #vancouver
There was a coin in the drain pump of this Frigidaire washer, preventing it from draining. This can damage the pump, so it is best not to run the machine until it has been remedied. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #cloggeddrain #washernotdraining #vancouver
Here is a blown thermal fuse on a Kenmore dishwasher. When this happens, your dishwasher will have no power. They are cheap and simple to replace. #appliancerepair #dishwasherrepair #thermalfuse #nopower #vancouver
This is a failed idler pulley on an old Maytag dryer. You can see all the rubber from the belt. This is usually the cause of broken belts, but it is an inexpensive repair. It also gives you the opportunity to give it a good cleaning and grease the rollers. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #dryernotspinning #brokenbelt #idlerpulley #vancouver
Here is another example of what happens when you don't let the door seal on your washer dry after use. Using too much soap is another culprit. This one is, by far, the worst I've ever seen. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #doorgasket #mold #vancouver
This is a failed bake element from a KitchenAid wall oven. Like a light bulb, elements can burn out over time. It is a relatively easy repair, but the hidden ones can be a bit tricky to replace. #appliancerepair #ovenrepair #bakeelement #burntout #vancouver
If your washer is ever leaking out of the front of the door, your issue is soap build up on the bottom of the glass. There is usually some hair stuck in there too, especially if you have pets. Most people don't notice this, so check it out before calling a repair technician. #appliancerepair #washingmachinerepair #washerepair #leakingwasher #vancouver
The drain catch and the tub to drain hose were packed full of shredded credit cards and debit cards on this Whirlpool washer. Surprisingly, it was still draining but these cards also cut holes in the door gasket. It is amazing how much damage plastic cards can do to a washing machine. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #cloggeddrain #doorgasket #creditcards #vancouver
If your washer ever has trouble draining, this is the first thing to check. You can save yourself the cost of a service call. Remember that quite a bit of water will come out, so be ready for that. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #washernotdraining #cloggeddrain #drain #vancouver
One of the wheels broke off the rack adjuster on this Whirlpool dishwasher. This repair was relatively cheap, but the rack adjusters can get quite pricey on some models. #appliancerepair #dishwasherrepair #dishrack #adjuster #vancouver
The impeller came loose on the drain pump from this LG washer. It is an older machine, so I believe this happened from wear and tear over time. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #drainpump #washernotdraining #vancouver
This is another washer where the hoses have been chewed up by mice. Those little buggers sure can do some damage to your appliances. I also see this quite a bit on the styrofoam float on Bosch dishwashers. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #mice #leakingwasher #vancouver
Here is a drain pump from an LG washer that failed mechanically. This damage was caused by bobby pins that had worked their way into the pump. Save yourself some bucks and empty your pockets before throwing your clothes in the wash! #appliancerepair #washerrepair #drainpump #washernotdraining #vancouver
This is a failed thermostat from Whirlpool dryer. If this happens, your dryer will not produce any heat. A failed thermal fuse or heating element can also cause this issue. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #thermostat #dryernotheating #vancouver
This drain pump from a Whirlpool washer failed mechanically. The washer also needed new shocks, a door gasket and the bearing was starting to grind. Sometimes, it is more cost effective to replace the appliance. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #drainpump #vancouver
The idler pulley failed on this Samsung dryer. It may have been a blessing, as there was a fire hazard beginning to form. The lint trap should be cleaned before every use. It is also a good idea to have your dryer checked annually for fire prevention. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #idlerpulley #firehazard #vancouver
A big rock managed to work it's way down into the drain pump of this old Maytag washer. Fortunately, the pump was not damaged because of it. Empty your pockets before doing laundry! #appliancerepair #washerrepair #maytag #drainpump #vancouver
The defrost timer failed on this fridge, causing the freezer to ice up and freeze over the drain. If you ever have this issue, they are cheap to replace. #appliancerepair #fridgerepair #defrosttimer #vancouver
This is a drain pump from a Whirlpool washer. It tested positive electrically, but has failed mechanically. If your washer is really loud during the drain cycle, this may be your issue. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #drain #drainpump #vancouver
I haven't seen this one before. Three hoses needed to be replaced on this Samsung washer because mice chewed holes in them. If you have mice in your laundry room, do something about it before you have costly repairs needed to your appliances. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #mice #hoses #vancouver
These dirty coils caused this refrigerator to stop cooling adequately. This is something that can be checked before calling a repair technician. If it still does not cool properly after the coils have been cleaned, the drain may also be frozen over. #appliancerepair #refrigeratorrepair #dirtycoils #frozendrain #vancouver
The drain froze over in this Samsung refrigerator. It is a common occurrence. This one froze all the way up into the fan, stopping it from spinning. If you have a Samsung fridge, and you are getting water leaking into your crisper drawers, this is what's happening. #appliancerepair #refrigeratorrepair #frozendrain #samsungfridge #vancouver
This LG dishwasher had a wad of hair (?) wrapped around the circulation motor shaft. It worked it's way between the shaft and the seal, allowing water to seep through, which damaged the motor. It's a fairly quick job to replace this, but it is a little expensive. #appliancerepair #dishwasherrepair #circulationpump #vancouver
The idler pulley in this Samsung dryer failed and it was run for quite a while like this. The belt sure did a number on it. If your dryer is making high pitched squeaking sounds, get it looked at before more damage occurs. #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #idlerpulley #noisydryer #vancouver
There was a small rag that got through the drum, into the drain hose of this Samsung washer. The homeowner used a wire to try to pull it out through the drain. Not a good idea, as it ripped the hose and caused the home to flood on the next wash. Moral of the story, don't do that. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #drainhose #vancouver
This dryer was making a loud noise and needed a new idler pulley. It was a good thing too because there was a fire hazard beginning to form. If you like your home, get this checked occassionally, especially if you have pets! #appliancerepair #dryerrepair #firehazard #vancouver
I have no words. #appliancerepair #waterlines #vancouver
Here are some dirty condenser coils on a Whirlpool refrigerator. When they get this dirty, your fridge has to work overtime and it will not cool adequately. Once it gets to this point, I often find the drain has frozen over as well, but I can't say for sure that they are related. #appliancerepair #refrigeratorrepair #dirtycoils #warmfridge #vancouver
The shocks on this LG washer failed causing it to walk around the room. Do not use your washer if this starts to happen. It can cause a lot more damage. The damage on the weight in this photo is from the drum smashing into the front of the machine. The door seal was also damaged. It ended up being an expensive repair. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #walkingwasher #shocks #vancouver
This leaky washer has a hole in the door seal. It may be a blessing in disguise, as replacing it also takes care of the mold issue. Tips for this one: Don't use too much soap, leave the door open after a wash so the seal can dry, and check your pockets before loading your washer! #appliancerepair #washerrepair #leakywasher #doorseal #mold #vancouver
This is a strange one. A piece broke on this dishwasher rack. They had zip tied it back together, which led to other pieces breaking and being zip tied together. Even the spray arm would pop out of it's socket. All the broken pieces came to nearly $600. If a piece on your dishwasher rack breaks, repair it properly! This customer opted to replace the dishwasher. #appliancerepair #dishwasherrepair #dishrack #vancouver
The hose clamps on this old washer are so old and rusty, they can't hold the water in anymore. A new clamp easily fixed this issue. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #washerdrain #maytag #vancouver
Swapping out some old rubber water lines with steel braided lines. Homeowners should check their washers and dishwashers for this. If you have rubber or copper water lines and they flood your home, it is unlikely your insurance will cover it. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #braidedwaterlines #insurance #floodedhome #vancouver
Yet another Samsung washer that is not worth the repair. It sounded like there was a tornado going through the house. It would cost almost as much to fix this as buying a new washer, and it wouldn't be the end of it. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #burnaby #samsungwasher #dontbuysamsung
These are timers for a Hot Point dryer. The one on the right was so chewed up, the knob could no longer spin it. The one on the left is the new one, for comparison. #appliancerepair #repairdryer #dryertimer #hotpoint #vancouver
The grommet on the drain line to this fridge was plugged shut, preventing water from draining on the defrost cycle. The symptoms of this are a fridge that is not cooling adequately and water leaking into the bottom of your freezer. #appliancerepair #refrigeratorrepair #cloggeddrains #leakyfridge #grommet #maytag #vancouver
This washer had a small hole worn into its drain hose. It was so hard to find this leak and just as hard to get a photo! They are relatively inexpensive to replace. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #drainage #vancouver
I pulled this out of the drain catch on a Whirlpool washer which was not draining. You can check for this issue yourself, before calling a repair tech. Have a container ready and open it slowly, as a lot of water will come out. If the catch fills up or anything makes it through into the pump, your washer may not drain. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #draincatch #washernotdraining #vancouver
To prevent mold, always leave the washer door open after a wash so the seal can dry out. Another major mold factor here is using too much soap. It is like a magnet for bacteria growth. You only need to use half as much detergent as the recommended amount for your machine. #appliancerepair #washerrepair #doorseal #mold #washertips
Yet some more dirty fridge coils! I am surprised this fridge was functioning at all. Keep these coils clean everyone, and your fridge will keep your food nice and cool. All the other components will last a lot longer too! #appliancerepair #repairrefrigerator #condensercoils #dirtycoils
This is the fan and evaporator coils in a Whirlpool refrigerator, which unfortunately, has a refrigerant leak. This is a costly repair. Unless your fridge is pretty new, you are better off replacing it. #appliancerepair #fridgerepair #whirlpoolrefrigerator #refrigerant
This a broken heating element from a Maytag dishwasher. Elements can burn out over time, like a lightbulb. There is not a lot you can do to prevent this one. #appliancerepair #dishwasherrepair #maytagdishwasher #heatingelement
Dirty coils on a Samsung refrigerator. When this happens, your fridge has to work a lot harder to keep things cool and can even prevent it from cooling adequately. They should be cleaned every 6 months or more if you have pets. #appliancerepair #fridgerepair #samsungrefrigerator #dirtycoils

  • How soon can I get an appointment?

    We do our best to book same-day appointments whenever possible. If we're already booked up, we'll find the next available time that works best for you. Either way, you won't be left waiting long. We know it's frustrating when an appliance stops working.

  • Do you offer evening or weekend appointments?

    Yes, we book repairs for times that work best for you. Whether you prefer a daytime slot, a weekday evening, or a weekend, we can make it work. We're available from 9am to 8pm Monday to Friday, 9 to 6 on Saturdays, and 10 to 6 on Sundays.

  • Do you charge a service call fee?

    Yes, we charge a service call fee, but it's fully waived if you go ahead with the repair. That means you only pay for parts and labour. If you decide not to proceed, the service call covers the time spent diagnosing the issue.

  • Do you offer any warranties on your repairs?

    Yes, all our repairs come with a 90-day parts and labour warranty. If something we fixed gives you trouble again during the warrant period, just give us a call and we'll take care of it.

  • What appliance brands do you service?

    We service all major brands of gas and electric appliances, including popular names like Whirlpool, Samsung, LG, GE, Maytag, KitchenAid, Frigidaire, Blomberg, Bosch, and many more. No matter the brand or type of appliance, we are equipped to expertly manage the repair.

  • Is there anything I can do to prepare for an appliance repair visit?

    There are a few things you can do to make the repair process smoother. If we are repairing your dishwasher, please clear under the sink so we can easily access the connections. For fridge, washer or dryer repairs, remove any items on or around the appliances to provide our technician the space to work. These small steps help us get your appliance fixed quickly and efficiently.

  • How do I know if I should replace or repair my appliance?

    If your appliance is less than 10 years old and the repair cost is under half the price of a new one, repairing is usually a good option. Signs you need a repair include unusual noises, poor performance, or not working at all. If your appliance has frequent problems or is nearing the end of its life, replacement may be more cost-effective. We can help you decide.

  • What areas do you service around Vancouver?

    We provide efficient appliance repair services in Vancouver, North Vancouver, West Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, New Westminster, and everywhere inbetween.

  • How long does it take to fix an appliance?

    The time for an appliance repair varies, but simple tasks often get done in an hour or less. More complex issues can take longer, especially if parts need ordering. The exact time depends on the appliance and the specific problem.
