Washer Notes for This Area
A washer's floor matters as much as its fault here. In the split-levels along Old Keene Mill Road and Rolling Road, it usually stands on a concrete floor on the lowest level beside a laundry tub, so an overflow finds a floor drain. In Burke Centre townhouses it may be in a closet off an upstairs hallway, where the same leak lands on a kitchen or living room ceiling.
How a washer that will not drain or spin gets diagnosed
We start by finding where the water stops. With the drain hose pulled from the standpipe, we see whether water flows freely, which rules the house plumbing in or out. Front-loaders then get their coin trap or pump filter opened, since socks and coins jam the impeller, and the pump is checked for voltage while the control calls for a drain. If the tub empties but will not spin, the door or lid lock comes next, followed by the drive motor, the motor control board and, on top-loaders, the shifter or clutch assembly. Stored error codes guide the order, but each suspect part gets measured before it is replaced.
Upstairs laundry closets in Burke Centre townhouses
If your washer lives on the bedroom floor, check that it sits in a drain pan and that the pan has an outlet. Rubber fill hoses that are bulging or cracked should be replaced with braided ones before they fail. If the machine shakes the hallway during spin, make sure all four feet touch the floor and that the shipping bolts were removed when it went in.

Washer Repair: Your Questions
Brief answers to what customers most often ask us. Don't see yours? Ask when you call, or add it to the notes when you book online.
Still have a question?
Get in touch with the brand, the symptom and, if you can find it, the model number. Some things we can answer right away; others need a technician in front of the machine.
The control will not continue if the drain or the door lock fails a check. A clogged pump filter, a kinked drain hose or a weak pump stops the drain, and a worn lock or switch stops the spin. We open the filter, test pump voltage and check the lock circuit to see which one tripped the cycle.
