FAQS
Washing Machine Repair Questions
Can you repair my washing machine if it's still under warranty?
Yes. We can repair washing machines still under manufacturer’s warranty. For the repair to be covered under warranty, contact the manufacturer directly and request a work order confirming warranty coverage and authorisation. Once we receive the valid work order, we’ll proceed with the warranty repair.
If you prefer to proceed without a manufacturer’s work order, we’re happy to repair your washing machine on a chargeable basis. Either way, our repairs won’t void your manufacturer’s warranty when carried out to manufacturer repair standards.
How much does a washing machine repair typically cost?
Washing machine repair costs vary depending on the specific issue. Drain pump cleaning or seal replacement may be low-cost. Motor replacement, bearing repair, or control board replacement can be more substantial. The best way to get an accurate quote is to call us on 1300-434-380 for a free phone consultation. We’ll discuss your issue and provide ballpark costs before scheduling your appointment.
Can you fix my washing machine today?
We aim to complete most washing machine repairs same-day when parts are in stock, especially for common issues like seal replacement or pump repair. Call us immediately on 1300-434-380 and we’ll assess whether same-day repair is possible for your specific issue. For urgent situations, we prioritise next-day appointments.
Is it worth repairing an older washing machine, or should I replace it?
This depends on repair costs versus replacement value, age of the appliance, and frequency of breakdowns. A leaking seal on a relatively new machine is usually worth fixing. A motor failure on a 15-year-old machine might make replacement more sensible. Our technicians can assess your situation and provide an honest recommendation during inspection.
Why does my washing machine need a professional? Can't I fix it myself?
Washing machine repairs involve high-voltage electrical systems, water pressure systems, and complex mechanical parts. DIY attempts risk electrocution, water damage, gas leaks (for dryer combos), and voided warranties. Professional repair ensures safety, proper diagnosis, and lasting fixes. Our technicians are trained on all models and carry genuine parts.
How long does a typical washing machine repair take?
Most washing machine repairs take 1-2 hours if parts are in stock. Simple repairs like seal replacement or drain clearing may be faster. Complex repairs involving motor replacement or bearing work can take longer. We’ll provide a time estimate during your assessment.
Can you install a new washing machine if mine can't be repaired?
Yes. If replacement is the best option, we supply, install, and remove your old washing machine, so you get a seamless, hassle-free experience. We can discuss washing machine options and pricing during your service call.
What should I do if my washing machine is leaking?
Stop using it immediately and call us on 1300-434-380. Leaks can cause water damage and electrical hazards. We can often provide emergency same-day service. In the meantime, turn off the water supply and place towels to contain the leak.
