Washing Machine Repair and Service at Home

In these instances, it can be difficult to know how to call when you have a problem with the appliance. In the case of your washing machine, there are actually three people that you might call; an electrician, a plumber, and an appliance repair person

Repair: If the repair would cost less than 50% of the price of a new appliance and your machine still has several expected years of life left, a quick fix could be a cost-effective solution over replacing the entire washer. An active warranty can also make any repair worthwhile

Normally, your washing machine won't go into a spin cycle until it's been drained. The drainage hose may become clogged with debris from your clothing, or it could be kinked. If the hose is kinked or crushed, it will likely need to be replaced.
