Tumble Dryer Repair Services We Offer

From heating faults to drum problems, our technicians repair tumble dryers of all major brands across Cape Town.

Tumble Dryer Not Heating

A dryer that tumbles but doesn't heat is usually caused by a faulty heating element, thermostat or thermal fuse. We test each component and replace the failed part, so your laundry dries properly again.

Drum Not Turning Repairs

If the drum won't turn, the cause is often a snapped drive belt, worn drum roller or failing motor. Our technicians replace these parts to restore smooth, quiet drum rotation and prevent further wear on the motor.

Poor Airflow & Long Drying Times

A dryer taking much longer than usual to dry clothes is often due to a blocked vent, clogged lint filter or failing airflow sensor. We clear blockages and repair airflow faults, restoring efficient drying times and reducing fire risk.

Noisy Tumble Dryer Repairs

Squeaking, thumping or grinding noises during a cycle usually point to worn drum bearings, rollers or a damaged belt. We diagnose the source of the noise and replace the affected parts to restore quiet operation.

Tumble Dryer Not Turning On

A dryer that won't start can be caused by a faulty door switch, timer or control board. Our technicians carry out full electrical diagnostics to identify and safely repair the fault, getting your dryer running again.

Error Code Diagnosis & Repair

Modern tumble dryers display error codes for faults ranging from blocked filters to sensor failures. We're experienced in reading brand-specific error codes and resolving the underlying issue quickly and correctly.
