Washing Machine Won’t Start
Problem: If your washing machine won’t start, it could be due to a faulty power source, a broken door latch, or issues with the control panel.
Solution: First, check the power outlet and ensure the machine is plugged in securely. If the door latch is the problem, it may need to be replaced. At Bob’s Handyman Services, our technicians can also inspect and repair or replace faulty control panels to restore your machine’s functionality.
Water Leakage
Problem: Water leaking from your washing machine can be caused by damaged hoses, a faulty pump, or a worn-out door seal.
Solution: Inspect the hoses for cracks or holes and replace them if necessary. Our professionals can check the pump for defects and repair or replace it as needed. Additionally, we can replace worn door seals to prevent future leaks.
Excessive Vibration
Problem: If your washing machine vibrates excessively, it might be due to an unbalanced load, uneven flooring, or worn shock absorbers.
Solution: Ensure that the load is evenly distributed inside the drum. Check if the washing machine is level on the floor; if not, adjust the feet accordingly. Our technicians can also replace worn shock absorbers to minimize vibration and noise.
Drum Not Spinning
Problem: A washing machine drum that doesn’t spin could be due to a broken belt, motor issues, or a malfunctioning lid switch.
Solution: Our experts can replace broken belts and repair or replace faulty motors. Additionally, we can fix or replace lid switches to ensure the drum spins properly during the wash cycle.
Unusual Noises
Problem: Unusual noises during operation can indicate loose objects in the drum, worn bearings, or a malfunctioning pump.
Solution: Check the drum for any loose items that may be causing the noise. Bob’s Handyman Services can replace worn bearings and repair or replace faulty pumps to eliminate the noise.
Foul Smell
Problem: A foul smell coming from your washing machine is often caused by mold or mildew buildup in the drum or detergent drawer.
Solution: Clean the drum and detergent drawer regularly to prevent mold and mildew growth. Our technicians can provide thorough cleaning services and recommend effective cleaning agents to keep your machine smelling fresh.
