Homes in Bovey Tracey

Know the home, know the fault

Properties in Bovey Tracey on the edge of Dartmoor range from modern builds to historic architecture, with over a hundred listed buildings found in this settlement. Older houses sometimes have uneven floors, which can make levelling a heavy appliance difficult. A machine that is not perfectly level will struggle during the spin cycle. The local area also draws tourists for multiple annual events, meaning some properties are used as holiday lets. In a holiday home, a washing machine might sit idle for weeks and then face heavy, continuous use, putting strain on the motor and heating element. When a machine vibrates excessively or makes a loud banging noise on spin, it is usually down to worn drum bearings or damaged suspension legs. If a machine will not drain, the pump filter might be blocked with debris, or the drain pump itself could have failed. Leaks typically originate from a degraded door seal, a split internal hose, or a loose connection near the pump area. Sometimes a machine will refuse to start or the door will not open at the end of a cycle, which points to a faulty door interlock mechanism. During a visit, we look at the exact symptoms your appliance is showing. Diagnosis covers draining, spinning, filling and heating faults, as well as investigating machines that trip the electrics or display error codes. We examine leaks from seals, hoses and the pump area, and check door locks and doors that will not open or close. We do not work on gas appliances.
