Homes in Looe

Know the home, know the fault

Properties along the steep-sided valley of the River Looe range from modern houses on the high ground to the north, to ancient fishermen's homes near the harbour. In those older properties, living quarters were historically built upstairs with storage below, meaning utility spaces might be arranged differently today. With a local economy focused on tourism, many addresses operate as holiday homes, guest houses and hotels. Washing machines in holiday lets endure heavy use during the summer months, processing constant loads of bedding and towels. When a machine processes heavy loads like thick towels, the drum bearings and suspension systems take the strain. Overloading can lead to noisy drums and excessive vibration on the spin cycle. Sand from beach visits can also find its way into the drum, eventually reaching the pump area where it might cause blockages. A machine that will not drain or spin is sometimes the result of debris obstructing the filter or the pump impeller. Other issues include leaks from door seals or internal hoses, heating faults that leave clothes washed in cold water, and door locks that refuse to open at the end of a cycle. We also inspect machines that will not fill or start at all. During a home visit, we diagnose draining, spinning, filling and heating faults. We look at leaks from seals, hoses and the pump area, as well as doors that will not open or close. If a washing machine trips the electrics or displays error codes, we trace the electrical fault to its source. We also travel to nearby Liskeard and Saltash.
