Tumble Dryer Repair – Get Your Dryer Working Again Fast

Did your dryer stop pulling clothes dry? Or is it making a loud thumping noise that worries you? You’re not alone – most households run into dryer trouble at some point. The good news is you don’t have to live with soggy laundry or gamble with a risky appliance. A quick call to a local expert can have your dryer humming again in no time.

Typical problems and when to call a pro

Here are the most common issues we see and why a professional is worth the call:

  • Not heating: If the drum turns but the clothes stay damp, the heating element or thermostat is likely faulty. Trying to fix it yourself can be dangerous without the right tools.
  • Not tumbling: A broken belt or motor failure will stop the drum from turning. A DIY fix might involve disassembling the dryer, which is best left to someone who knows the safety steps.
  • Loud thumping or squeaking: Worn bearings, a broken drum support, or foreign objects can cause noisy operation. Ignoring the noise can lead to bigger damage.
  • Overheating or smoking: A clogged vent, failing thermostat, or broken fan can cause excessive heat. This is a fire hazard – shut the dryer down and call us immediately.
  • Long drying times: A blocked lint filter or vent, a faulty moisture sensor, or worn heating coils can all stretch cycles.

If you notice any of these signs, give us a ring. We’ll diagnose the problem on the spot and let you know the exact fix and price before any work begins.

How we fix it and what to expect

Our process is simple and transparent:

  1. Call or book online: We respond within an hour for urgent cases and schedule a convenient visit for the rest.
  2. On‑site diagnosis: A qualified technician checks the drum, heating element, motor, and vent system. We explain what’s wrong in plain language.
  3. Quote and approval: You get a clear, item‑by‑item estimate. No hidden fees, no surprise charges.
  4. Repair: We replace faulty parts – belts, thermostats, heating elements, motors – using high‑quality spares that match your model.
  5. Test run: After the fix, we run a full drying cycle to make sure everything works as it should.
  6. Guarantee: All repairs come with a 12‑month guarantee, so you’re covered if the same issue pops up again.

Typical repair costs in Nuneaton range from £80 for a simple belt change to £200 for a motor or heating element replacement. We always aim for the most cost‑effective solution, and we’ll let you know if a replacement makes more sense than a repair.

While we’re there, we’ll also give you a quick maintenance checklist to keep your dryer in top shape:

  • Clean the lint filter after every load – a full filter can reduce efficiency by up to 25%.
  • Check the vent hose every month for lint buildup; a blocked vent is the main cause of dryer fires.
  • Inspect the drum and door seal for tears or wear; small gaps let hot air escape and waste energy.
  • Run a cleaning cycle with a dryer‑safe cleaning tablet or a cup of white vinegar to clear residue from the drum.

Doing these simple chores can extend the life of your dryer by several years and keep repair bills low.

At Nuneaton Appliance Repair Experts, we treat your dryer like our own. Fast response, honest pricing, and a friendly attitude are standard. Ready to get your laundry dry again? Give us a call now and let a local professional take care of the rest.
