Why Repair, Rather than Replace?
Most washing machines break down because of just one broken part, while the rest of the machine still has years of life.
Repairing gives you:
-
Lower Costs: Fixing a single part is far cheaper than buying a whole new appliance.
-
Faster Service: Buying new requires shopping, delivery, and disposal of the old unit. With our same-day and next-day availability, your machine could be working the same day.
-
Lower Environmental Footprint: Repairing extends your machine’s lifespan, reducing waste and environmental impact.
With a shorter wait time, lower costs, and less environmental impact, why wouldn’t you repair?
Common Washing Machine Faults We Fix in Bournemouth
While there are many reasons why washing machines break down, Bournemouth has hard water, around 270 mg/l according to Bournemouth Water. Over time, this can cause limescale build-up and can make parts wear out faster than usual.
Heating elements, pumps, seals, and drum bearings often fall under strain. Luckily, our local engineers are familiar with these issues and know what to look out for!
Below are some of the most common problems and how we fix them.
Your washing machine isn’t meant to look like a paddling pool. If cycles are stopping early and water’s left in the drum, there might be a blockage, or you could need a replacement drainage pump.
Spin problems are never fun. Clothes come out sopping wet, and you have no idea whether they’re dirty or clean. If your drum won’t turn or the spin cycle keeps failing, you likely have a motor fault or a worn drive belt.
If you’ve got no water, you’ve got no wash. Slow filling or fill error codes usually point to a faulty water inlet valve. Replacing the part typically gets things flowing again.
If you’re consistently finding your machine in a puddle, you may need a replacement door seal.
If your machine has power but won’t start, shows a “door open” signal, or the lock is clicking open and closed, you might need a new locking system.
If your machine sounds like it’s trying to escape the utility room, you likely have an installation problem, worn shock absorbers, uneven flooring, or an unbalanced load. Our engineers will diagnose the exact cause on-site.
There are a few reasons why washing machines give up mid-cycle. There may be a problem with water flow, a blocked drain filter, or a faulty door lock. Our engineers can identify and fix the fault on-site.
A lukewarm wash rarely gets clothes feeling clean. If your machine isn’t heating the water effectively, you might have a faulty heating element, temperature gauge or sensor. The exact fix depends on which part is playing up.
This fault is more common in Bournemouth, as water runs quite hard, and limescale builds up faster, which can put internal components and heating elements under strain.
Musty, stagnant water smells and mould around the machine seal are often caused by a buildup of detergent, fabric softener and trapped moisture that feeds bacteria. A specialist strip and clean gets things fresh again – because your washing machine shouldn’t smell like a swamp.
If your machine is making a racket while spinning, there’s probably an issue with the bearings. This is a major repair, usually requiring a new drum, and it’s one that most companies avoid. We offer it as part of our fixed-price repairs.
How Much Does a Washing Machine Repair Cost?
Price is where we differ most from other appliance repair companies.
We want our customers to feel comfortable and confident when booking repairs, not dreading final costs, unplanned add-ons and sneaky fees.
That’s why we take a fixed-price approach. When you book with us, you know exactly what you will be charged before the repairs begin. Our repair costs start at £99.
If we cannot repair the machine, you’re only charged for the callout fee (£59). And if the machine repair costs more than we quoted, that’s our cost to absorb, not yours.

The Process – Working with Repair & Maintain
Explain the Fault
Most people don’t know exactly what’s wrong with their machine, and that’s okay. Describe the fault you’re experiencing, share any error codes, and our team will be able to help.
We Book a Callout
We organise for an engineer to come to your home. They will identify the fault and either repair it on the first visit or identify which parts to order before booking a follow-up appointment.
Enjoy your Repair Guarantee
Your repair is guaranteed for 30 days from the fix. In the unlikely event that the initial fault recurs within this time, you’re entitled to a free follow-up repair.

Our washer started leaking underneath halfway through a load which caused a bit of panic in the kitchen. I called and was given a clear cost before booking. The engineer who came out was friendly and got straight into checking where the water was coming from. He found the faulty part and repaired it there. We ran a short cycle afterwards to check everything. NO leak since and it saved us having to shop for a new machine.Posted on Google

The appointment window was a bit wider than I hoped and the engineer arrived later in the day. Once here though he explained the washer fault clearly and got it sorted. Good result in the end.Posted on Google
Jaime TrujilloOur oven suddenly stopped reaching temperature a few days before we had family coming over. NGL that timing was annoying. I contacted them and managed to get a quick appointment. The engineer was polite and explained that the heating element had failed. He changed it then waited to make sure the oven was heating correctly. Dinner plans saved and no surprise bill afterwards :)Posted on Google
Santosh KumarOur washing machine packed up midweek. They arranged someone for the next day and the engineer found the drainage problem without much messing around.. Good service overal.👌Posted on Google
Someli RajuMy washing machine started making a horrible noise during the spin cycle and I was already looking at replacements. I booked a repair instead. The engineer checked the drum and found the actual issue without trying to sell me anything unnecessary. He repaired it during the visit and tested another spin before leaving. Been quiet since which is a reliefPosted on Google
