Most dryer calls in Oakland come down to the vent. Older homes in Temescal, the Dimond and Fruitvale often have long vent runs through a basement or crawl space, and some still have the old foil or vinyl duct. Lint builds up, the dryer overheats, and the thermal fuse blows.
Oakland has plenty of gas dryers in older houses and electric ones in newer condos downtown and around Jack London Square. We work on both, and we check the venting on every call, because a new heating part on a blocked vent will fail again.
We come out to Temescal, the Dimond, Montclair, Fruitvale, Jack London, Uptown, Redwood Heights and the rest of Oakland.
Common dryer problems we fix in Oakland
Runs but no heat
A blown thermal fuse, a bad heating element on electric, or an igniter or gas valve coil on gas. A blocked vent is often why the fuse blew.
Takes two or three cycles
Restricted venting, a clogged lint duct inside the dryer, or a weak heating element.
Squealing or thumping
Worn drum rollers, idler pulley or drum belt. Common on dryers that carry a family's laundry.
Won't turn on at all
Door switch, thermal fuse, start switch or the outlet. We check power first.
Before you call
Pull the dryer out and look at the duct behind it. If it is crushed or kinked, straighten it. Run a short timed dry with the duct pulled off the wall: if the clothes dry fine, the problem is the vent, not the dryer.

Do you fix gas dryers?
Yes. We repair gas and electric residential dryers, including igniters, gas valve coils and flame sensors.
Do you clean dryer vents?
We check the vent on every dryer call and clear the section behind the dryer. A long run through the house may need a vent cleaning company.
Is my dryer a fire risk?
A dryer that runs very hot, smells like burning lint, or keeps blowing its thermal fuse should not be used until it is checked.
