Servicing All Type of Clothes Dryers in Chicago

From historic three-flats in Lincoln Park to modern South Loop high-rises, and even busy laundromats in River North, we’ve repaired dryers in virtually every type of property across Chicago. Every dryer brand, every model, every problem — our technicians handle them all with precision and care.

Common Dryer Problems We Fix

Dryers are a lot like small engines — if one part goes wrong, the whole thing can stop. Here are some common problems:

  • Dryer won’t heat – often from faulty heating elements, thermostats, or gas valves
  • Drum not spinning – caused by worn belts, rollers, or motors
  • Loud or strange noises – rattling, squealing, or grinding from worn parts
  • Stops mid-cycle – usually a motor, thermal fuse, or control board problem
  • Clothes taking too long to dry – often due to clogged vents or blocked lint filters
  • Error codes or blinking panels – indicating electrical or sensor issues
  • Door won’t latch properly – common in stackable or commercial units

A Wicker Park homeowner called us because their Whirlpool dryer wasn’t heating. Clothes came out damp, even after several cycles. Our technician found a burned heating element and a blocked vent. After replacing the element and clearing the vent, the dryer worked perfectly. The homeowner avoided a fire hazard and expensive replacement — and their laundry day stress melted away.

When to Call a Dryer Technician

You can handle small things like cleaning lint filters or leveling your dryer. But call a professional if:

  • Dryer won’t heat or tumbles unevenly
  • Loud banging, squealing, or grinding noises
  • Clothes take longer than usual to dry
  • Error codes appear on the panel
  • Door or lid won’t latch
  • Dryer stops mid-cycle
