Frequently Asked Questions
How much does dryer repair cost?
Service call is $85 + HST per appliance, waived with repair. Dryer repairs typically run $100–$280 depending on the issue — heating element, thermostat, motor, or drum belt.
My dryer is not heating. Is it the heating element?
Possibly, but it could also be a blown thermal fuse, faulty cycling thermostat, or a tripped circuit breaker. Gas dryers may have a defective igniter or gas valve coil. We test all components to find the actual cause.
Can you repair both gas and electric dryers?
Yes. Our TSSA-certified technicians handle gas dryer repairs. We also service electric dryers across all major brands.
How can I prevent dryer problems?
Clean the lint trap after every load, and have the exhaust duct professionally cleaned every 1–2 years. A clogged vent is the #1 cause of dryer fires and heating failures.
Is it safe to use a dryer that takes two cycles to dry clothes?
No — this usually means restricted airflow from a clogged vent, which is a fire hazard. Stop using it and call us.
