Washer Repair in York Region

Washer repair across York Region and North York

A washer that quits does it full of wet laundry, and in a condo a leak goes straight to the neighbour below, so machines stuck full of water and active leaks are priority calls across our whole service area.

We repair every washer type York Region homes run: full-size front-loaders and top-loaders in the subdivisions, the original builder-installed Whirlpool, GE and Kenmore top-loaders in the 1990s and 2000s homes, 24-inch stacked laundry pairs and all-in-one washer-dryer combos in the condo corridors along Yonge, Highway 7 and Sheppard, and Miele, Electrolux and Speed Queen front-loaders in the estate homes.

What is wrong with my washer?

• Won't drain or spin. Blocked or failed drain pump, a sock or coin in the pump filter, a worn drive belt, or a lid switch or door lock that is not registering closed. The most common washer call we get. On front-loaders it shows as OE, F21, 5E or E2 depending on brand.
• Leaking from the front. Torn door boot seal on a front-loader, almost always from something sharp left in a pocket. Leaking from underneath points to a drain hose, inlet valve or tub seal.
• Won't fill, fills slowly, or sits at the start of the cycle. Inlet valve, water level pressure switch, or the control board. On well water in Aurora, King City, Stouffville and Oak Ridges, and hard municipal water in Newmarket, scaled inlet screens come first.
• Loud banging during spin. Worn suspension rods on top-loaders, shock absorbers on front-loaders, or a failing drum bearing. A bearing sounds like a jet engine and is the one washer fault that sometimes tips toward replacement.
• Stuck on a cycle or won't start. Door lock assembly, control board, or a thermal fuse on older units.
• Smells or leaves residue. Mould in the door boot on front-loaders, a clogged drain filter, or detergent build-up. Cleaning and a boot replacement if the seal is damaged.

What it costs

Brands we repair

Repair or replace?

The rule of thumb: if the appliance is under about ten years old and the repair is well under the cost of a comparable new one, repair usually wins. On premium built-ins that is true almost regardless of age, because replacement runs into five figures and has to fit existing cabinetry. Sealed-system leaks on freestanding fridges, cracked washer tubs and control boards that are no longer made are the usual exceptions. We tell you which side of that line you are on before any work starts, so you are not throwing money at a lost cause.
