Find a professional washing machine repair service near you

While most machines come with installation instructions, if you’re short on time or you’re not confident with installing a washing machine, you can hire a technician to help. They’ll level your machine, plug it in, set up the drainage hose and water supply, and check that it’s working.

Yes. Just as you’d service your car, your washing machine needs regular maintenance. Regular servicing and checks keep your machine running smoothly so it lasts longer, cleans better, and you catch any problems early on.

You might be able to do some basic washing machine repairs yourself if you’ve got the tools on hand and you understand the mechanics. But a washing machine repair professional will be able to quickly diagnose any issues (even complex ones), get the parts, and fix your machine much faster.

Most of the time, it’ll be cheaper and simpler to get your washing machine repaired. But if certain parts of your machine break (like the tub or tub seal), it may be more cost effective to get a new machine. Your technician will advise you on the best course of action once they determine what’s causing your problem.

Common washing machine problems include drainage issues, seal issues, problems with the door lock, the machine stopping mid-cycle, a funky smell, tripping the power, or too much shaking or movement during a cycle.

In the US, washing machine repair rates generally range from $75 to $200, depending on the complexity of the issue and the parts required.

For certain types of tasks, you may need someone who has a specialist license and also additional insurance. Please make sure that you confirm that a Tasker has the relevant license and insurance before accepting an offer.
