Most people run into one of three common issues with their washing machine: the machine won’t start, the machine is leaking, or the machine doesn’t finish a cycle properly (often accompanied by an error code). If you’re experiencing one of these problems, here are a few things to check before calling us.
It sounds obvious, but start by unplugging the machine and plugging it back in. Check that nothing is in the way when closing the door, and make sure the door closes fully. Sometimes a step this simple is all it takes. If not, call our team of experts to help solve the issue.
First, allow the current cycle to finish and don’t start another one. Avoid over-stuffing the machine, since some models will begin to leak when loaded past capacity. Check that the hoses connecting to the back of the machine are intact and properly attached. If leaking continues after trying these steps, give us a call — sometimes all a washing machine needs is a good cleaning.
Your machine starts working and then stops partway through the cycle — sometimes leaving behind a bad smell in the clothes. Often an error code will appear on the screen. If this happens, check the manual that came with your machine, or search online for your make, model, and the specific error code. It’s often a fixable issue such as instability during the spin cycle, an overfull load, or insufficient water supply. If you can’t figure out the code, you can count on the experts at Express Repair — call us today.
Our technicians are all certified, experienced and trained to solve a wide range of washing machine issues.

Here are a few things you can do to keep your washer in good condition:
In case the washer door won’t open at the end of the cycle, it is mainly because the lock system is faulty. Most washers have a manual release accessible from under the door lock, so you can try to open the door through that.
If your washer isn’t draining properly, it is because of a clogged hose or even a clogged pump. It can be pretty common for items to get stuck in your washer’s pumps or hoses.
The squeaking noise from your washer usually comes from the pump belt. Regular use can wear the belt down and make it frayed and cracked. This creates thumping and squealing noises during the cycle. A washer repair technician can easily replace the pump with a new one.
We certainly don’t lack choices when it comes to laundry detergent these days. Whether or not you will use powder or liquid detergent is a matter of your personal preference. When it comes to effectiveness, there are advantages and disadvantages to both. For example, powder detergent is more effective on oily stains while liquid detergent is more effective in lifting out every-day stains.
If you are dealing with a washer that is not turning on, it is likely because the lid switch is faulty, the start switch or timer is broken, the washer’s motor is not working, or the main control board is broken. Our experienced washer technicians can quickly repair any of these problems for you.
Depending on the manufacturer, different washers have different cycle options. One of the most common problems with washer cycles is the hot wash. If there is a problem with your water heater, then you will not be able to get the hot wash cycle. If the heater is faulty, you are going to need a washer repair technician to replace it.
The most common washer leakage comes from the door, in which case the problem is the door seal. If you find that your washer leaks water during the cycle, it might be best to call a washer repair professional who can easily diagnose and fix the problem.
First of all, you want to make sure the washer is placed on level ground. If the machine is not on level ground, the vibrations will make it move across the room. Another thing that can help is attaching some non-vibration pads to the bottom of the washer that will add some grip and reduce the shake.
Clogged filters are a common cause of a laundry washer not filling up. You can try to clean the filters and see if this will resolve the issue. If it doesn’t work, a washer repair technician can discover and fix the issue.
The most common cause of bad smells in your washing machine is bacteria or mold growing inside. To solve the problem, turn on a cycle with a mixture of vinegar and baking soda which will eliminate any mildew and bacteria growing inside. To prevent this from happening, limit the use of detergent and softener because soap residue is perfect for such bacteria growth.
The most common reason why your washer won’t drain properly is a clogged drain pump or hose. What you can do in this situation is remove the hoses from the pump to unclog them. If the problem persists, call a washer repair technician to help you.
When your washer doesn’t spin properly, the problem might be the motor, a broken belt, or the lid switch. A washer repair professional can help you fix these issues very fast.
