These are the washer faults we are called out for most often in Oak Bay homes, with the causes we usually find behind them. Drain pumps, belts, door locks and inlet valves travel in our vans, so most machines are running again after the first visit.
Usually a sock, coin or hair clip caught in the drain pump filter, a kinked or blocked drain hose, or a drain pump that has burnt out.
Often a worn drive belt, a faulty lid switch or door lock, a broken motor coupling on top-loaders, or a drain problem the machine must clear before it will spin.
On front-loaders the rubber door boot is the usual source. Loose or cracked fill hoses, a leaking pump seal or too much detergent foaming over can also put water on the floor.
Worn shock absorbers or suspension springs, broken suspension rods on top-loaders, or uneven feet. A loud roar on spin often means the drum bearings are wearing out.
Typically a failed door lock assembly or lid switch, a water inlet valve that will not open so the machine never fills, or a fault on the control board.
The code on the display points us toward a drain, fill, lock, motor or balance fault. We confirm it with the machine's service test before replacing anything.
Water on the floor? Turn off both taps behind the washer and unplug it before you touch anything wet, then give us a call. Do not force open a locked door on a machine that is still full of water.

Straight answers to the questions Oak Bay homeowners ask before booking a washer repair.

The price depends on which part has failed, and you get the exact figure before any work starts. Clearing a blocked drain filter or replacing a door lock, belt or inlet valve sits at the lower end, while a motor, control board or drum bearing job costs the most. The service call fee is waived when you go ahead with the repair.
Yes, in most cases: call before noon and we can usually have your washer running again the same day. We are open every day from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m., weekends included, and we tell you up front if a part has to be ordered.
A blockage is the most common reason: a sock, coin or lint caught in the drain pump filter or the drain hose. On most front-loaders the filter sits behind a small panel at the bottom front of the machine, so have towels and a shallow tray ready if you open it. If the filter and hose are clear and the washer still holds water, the drain pump has usually failed.
The rubber door boot is the most common source, because it can tear or hold a trapped object that stops the door from sealing. Loose or cracked fill hoses behind the machine, a leaking pump and using too much detergent, which pushes suds out of the door, are the next things we check.
Repair usually makes sense when the washer is under about 10 years old and the repair costs less than half the price of a comparable new machine. Pumps, belts, door locks, valves and suspension parts are almost always worth fixing. Worn drum bearings on an older front-loader are labour-heavy, and in that case we will tell you plainly if replacing the machine is the better choice.
Every washing machine repair is covered by a 90-day warranty on both parts and labour. If the same fault comes back within 90 days, we return and fix it at no charge.
We repair washers where they stand, whether that is a basement laundry room in the Uplands, a closet unit in an Oak Bay Village condo or a stacked pair in a South Oak Bay townhouse. Every neighbourhood in Oak Bay is a short drive from our base.
Dryer acting up too, or trouble in the kitchen? We repair these appliances across Oak Bay as well.
