Laundry Appliance Repair You Can Rely On
A washer or dryer that stops working can disrupt an entire household’s routine, especially when the issue comes on suddenly. Sub-Zero & Viking Repair of West LA fixes washers and dryers for homeowners across West Los Angeles and Los Angeles County, always tracking down the real mechanical or electrical cause instead of guessing at a fix. Our appliance repair technicians are trained on major brands, so whether you need washing machine repair, dryer repair, or help with another home appliance, our appliance repair pros get it right the first time.
Whether your washer will not drain or your dryer will not heat, a hands-on inspection from a certified technician finds what’s actually wrong.
Common Washer Problems
- Washer not draining or leaving standing water at the end of a cycle.
- Drum not spinning or spinning unevenly.
- Loud banging, grinding, or thumping noises during the cycle
- Washer shutting off before the cycle completes
- Excessive vibration or the unit moving during operation
- Door or lid not locking properly.
- Water leaking from the bottom or front of the unit
- Error codes displayed on the control panel
Common Dryer Problems
- Dryer running but not producing heat.
- Clothes taking multiple cycles to fully dry.
- Drum not turning even though the motor runs.
- Unusual burning smell during operation
- Dryer not starting or stopping mid-cycle
- Excessive noise, such as squeaking or grinding
- Lint building up excessively despite regular cleaning.
- Control panel unresponsive or displaying an error code
If your dryer is not producing heat or you notice a burning smell, it is worth having it inspected promptly by one of our expert technicians, since these issues can sometimes point to a ventilation or component problem that affects safe operation.

Why Major Appliance Brands Develop Problems Over Time
Washers and dryers go through repeated mechanical cycles, so parts like belts, seals, and bearings naturally wear down with regular use. Hard water buildup, lint, and unbalanced loads can speed up that wear. Telling normal wear apart from a real mechanical failure is key to an accurate diagnosis, helping our technicians decide if a targeted repair or a bigger fix is needed, whether it is a Kenmore washer, an LG washer repair, or a broken washer of any other brand.
Signs It's Time to Schedule Laundry Appliance Repair
- A washer that takes noticeably longer than usual to complete a cycle
- Clothes coming out of the dryer still damp after a full cycle.
- A washer that leaves clothing with a musty smell even after cleaning the drum
- Water pooling on the floor near either appliance.
- A dryer vent that feels unusually hot to the touch during operation
- Increasing noise level over several uses rather than a single incident
Addressing these signs early often means a more straightforward, lower repair cost, since components under strain for extended periods are more likely to affect surrounding parts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my washer not draining properly?
This is often caused by a clogged drain pump, a blocked hose, or a faulty drain valve. A hands-on inspection is needed to determine the exact cause and confirm the right fix.
Why does my dryer run without heating?
A dryer that runs but does not heat commonly points to a failed heating element, a tripped thermal fuse, or a gas supply issue on gas dryers. Each one needs a different fix, much like a microwave that will not heat or an oven that will not reach temperature needs its own diagnosis.
Is it safe to keep using a dryer that smells like it’s burning?
No. A burning smell can indicate lint buildup near a heat source or a component issue, and it’s best to stop using the dryer and have it inspected before running it again.
Can a washer that shakes or vibrates excessively be repaired?
Often, yes. Excessive vibration is commonly caused by an unbalanced load, uneven flooring, or worn suspension components, all of which can typically be diagnosed and corrected.
Do you repair both gas and electric dryers?
Yes. Gas and electric dryers are both serviced, along with front-load and top-load washers, dishwashers, and ice makers.

Yes. Stackable and compact washers and dryers use many of the same core components as full-size units, though access and assembly can differ, which a technician accounts for during diagnosis and repair.
