This rotating drum pushes moist air from the dryer outside the house through the vent to make space for new hot dry air that can flow through your clothes and help in the drying process. We can help you repair any part of this system including the vent and will get you up and running in no time.

The rest makes its way into the dryer vent, which makes your dryer work harder and constricts airflow.

Most common issues we fix
Dryer not Heating
One of the most frustrating things can be running a full cycle and your clothes still coming out wet. You can troubleshoot some of the basics that may get you back up and running.
The heat element may be suffocated by the lint trapped inside the machine. Check your lint screen first and clean it out. Next look at the lint trap and use a vacuum to clean it out. Then detach the vent hose from the back of your dryer and shake it out, blow out debris, and make sure its free of lint. Also clean out the vent outlet in the wall and unclog any visible debris. This should help resolve your issue. The lint and debris stuck in your dryer causes the heating element to overheat and shuts off the thermostat.
If this doesn't fix the issue, your dryer's fuse may have blown. If you take the back panel off of your dryer you can locate the fuse and test to see if its working. If not order a part and replace it and your dryer should begin heating up again. If not, it may be time to call a professional to come out and take a look.

Dryer won't run or start

You'd be surprised how many times its the breaker box. It got shorted or switched off somehow and just needs to be flipped back on. Sometimes its more serious and you may have a broken terminal block, a damaged start switch, or bad thermostat.
Dryer gets too hot or overheats
Check to make sure that the dryer vent is not clogged. You may have faulty heating coils or a bad thermostat. In either case, this may be a fire hazard that you should get resolved immediately.
