Looking for a Washing machine repair service near you?

A washing machine that stops mid-cycle, will not spin, or will not turn on can bring the laundry to a halt. Washing machine repair on gigit gets it diagnosed and fixed: you post the job, verified gigit heroes send offers, and your payment is held safely until the repair is done.

Common washing machine faults:

Washer won't spin or turn

The drum will not turn at all, or it turns but will not spin the water out, so the clothes come out soaking. Common causes are the drive belt, the motor, the lid or door switch, or a blocked drain or pump. This is the most common washing machine fault, and what most people book a repair for.

Water not filling

The machine starts but little or no water comes in. It is usually the inlet valve, the mesh filter on the inlet hose, or the water-level sensor, and sometimes just the tap or a kinked hose. Worth checking the tap is on before you book, then describe the rest.

Washer won't turn on

No power, no lights, and no response when you press start. This usually points to the power supply, the door interlock, or the control board. Mention any error code on the display, as it often shows where the fault is.

Is it a repair, or does it just need a clean?

If the machine runs fine but the drum or the clothes come out smelling musty, that is usually a job for a washing machine clean rather than a repair, clearing the build-up of mould and detergent inside. Not sure which you need? Describe what the machine is doing when you post the task, and the gigit heroes who send offers will tell you whether it is a repair or a clean.
