When a washing machine breaks down, it can have a whole household upside down. If an appliance isn’t working and you need to have clothes washed, but they are still wet, or if the washing machine will not turn on, it’s time to find a reliable washing machine repair shop. We at Sunset Appliance Repairs know the importance of this appliance to your life and want to put it right and get it done fast.

Most Washing Machine Issues are Common

A washing machine is put under a lot of strain in South Africa as people usually wash 3-4 loads a week. With the amount of use over time, there are predictable problems. The most frequent complaints are: water leakage around the base or door; drum shake or unusual noises during spins; water being left in the tub after spins; and the tub not spinning completely during cycles.

These issues are frequently related to certain failure conditions of components. The motor and drive system can fail, drum bearings can fail or the water inlet valve can fail. Other common problem areas include the pump and hoses, the control board and sensors that control the machine’s operation.

Identifying When a Professional Washing Machine Repair is Needed can be Difficult

Some minor problems can be taken care of by routine maintenance but many problems can only be fixed by expert help. If your washing machine is not running and has stopped in the middle of the cycle, the filter could be blocked with water supply sediment. White vinegar can be used in the machine’s internal circuit to clear up some of the sensors but if there are ongoing drain or motor problems, you should have professional washing machine repairs.

The price of washing machine repairs depends on the washing machine problem. A cost of R1,200 to R3,000 for a drum not turning or spinning, and R800 to R2,800 for water filling and/or draining problems are typical costs. Likely costs of a leak through a door seal or hose are R600 to R2,400 and motor or pump failure is likely to cost R1,500 to R4,500.
