Know the home, know the fault

Properties on the south-western edge of Dartmoor range from grand late Victorian and Edwardian villas to bed-and-breakfasts serving walkers visiting the area. Some local shops occupy a nineteenth-century terrace that had its upper storey removed, but the surrounding residential homes rely heavily on domestic laundry appliances. A tumble dryer works hard in a guest house turning over towels and bedding, while larger period homes built for early commuters might have utility rooms where a vented or condenser machine operates. Whether a machine is drying walking gear or weekly family loads, the internal components have to handle significant heat, lint and moisture. When a dryer runs but produces no heat, the heating element or a thermal overload cutout has failed. A drum that will not turn while the motor can still be heard running points to a snapped drive belt, which requires dismantling the cabinet to replace. Machines that stop mid-cycle or refuse to start at all might have a faulty door catch, a blocked moisture sensor, or a problem with the main control board. Condenser models rely on a pump to move extracted moisture into the water container, and a blockage or pump failure here leaves clothes damp. Noisy running points to worn support rollers, failing bearings, or tensioner pulleys that have lost their lubrication. We travel out past Roborough Down to repair domestic appliances in customers' homes. When looking at a faulty tumble dryer, we check the drive mechanisms, heating circuits, sensors and condenser systems to find out why it will not heat, turn or finish a cycle. Alongside dryers, we repair washing machines, washer dryers, dishwashers, fridges, freezers, electric cookers, electric range cookers, and electric or induction hobs. We do not work on gas cookers, gas hobs or any gas appliance.
