Common washing machine faults repaired in Dorset

Won't spin or drum not turning
Usually a worn carbon brush, drive belt, or motor issue — very common on machines over 5 years old.
Leaking water
Commonly caused by a door seal failure, drain pump leak, or loose hose connection.
Not draining
Usually a blocked filter, failed drain pump, or kinked drain hose. Often triggers E3 or F21 error codes.
Door won't open
Usually the door interlock or wax motor. Can also be caused by water remaining in the drum.
Loud banging or grinding noises
Worn drum bearings or loose counterweights — important to fix promptly to prevent further damage.
Error codes showing
Engineers diagnose the root cause behind error codes rather than just resetting them.
Not heating water
Usually the heating element or thermostat — clothes come out cold despite a hot programme.
Trips the electrics
Could indicate a failing element, motor, or wiring fault. Should be inspected promptly.

What customers say — Dorset & nearby
★★★★★ 4.9 / 5 from verified customers
★★★★☆

“Good experience overall. Took about 3 hours to hear back but the engineer who came was excellent — knew exactly what the fault was from my description before he even looked at it.”

Tom W. Dorset
★★★★★

“Got 3 quotes within an hour. Engineer came next morning, fixed the drum bearing and it's been perfect ever since. Would have cost me £400 for a new machine — paid £140 for the repair.”

Sarah M. Surrey
★★★★★

“I nearly bought a new machine but decided to get a repair quote first. So glad I did — the pump replacement cost £95 and it's worked perfectly for 6 months since.”
