Washing Machine repair in New York

For premium brands (Miele, Bosch, Gaggenau), repair is the standard choice. These machines are tested for 20 years of use. A common issue like a worn drain pump or a door seal costs a fraction of the $2,500+ price tag of a new W1 or 800 Series unit. Plus, newer models may have slightly different dimensions, making them hard to fit into existing tight laundry closets.

Yes, violent vibration can damage the machine's internal suspension and even your floor. In NYC apartments, this is often caused by an unlevel floor or worn Shock Absorbers. Premium washers use automotive-grade shocks; if they fail, the drum bangs around. We replace the dampers and professionally level the machine to ensure whisper-quiet spinning.

This is common in front-loaders. Mold grows in the rubber door gasket (boot) if moisture sits there. We recommend leaving the door slightly ajar between cycles. If the mold is deep-set and black, cleaning won't help. We replace the entire Door Boot Seal with a fresh, antimicrobial one to eliminate the odor source.

Do not force the door open. You will flood your floor. This issue is usually a clogged coin trap (filter) or a failing drain pump. We have specialized tools to manually drain the machine safely before opening the filter to remove the blockage (often coins, socks, or color catchers).

Grease spots often mean the rear drum bearings seal has failed, allowing oil/rust to enter the wash. Tears usually indicate a damaged drum paddle or a foreign object (like a bra wire) sticking out through a drum hole. We inspect the drum carefully to protect your delicate fabrics.
