Tumble dryer repair visits from £50
A tumble dryer can continue running while failing to heat or dry correctly, or it may stop operating altogether. LCDA engineers diagnose the appliance before confirming the appropriate repair. Where possible, repairs are completed during the visit; if replacement parts or additional work are required, these are discussed before proceeding.
Common tumble dryer faults we investigate
Tell us what happens when the dryer is started, whether the drum turns, whether heat is produced and whether an error code or warning is displayed.
Why is my tumble dryer not heating?
A dryer that runs without producing the expected heat can have more than one possible cause. Heating components, temperature controls, sensors, airflow, electrical components and control systems can all affect heating and drying performance. Diagnosis is therefore required before confirming which component or repair is needed.
A heating component is one possible cause when a tumble dryer is not heating, but the symptom alone does not confirm which part has failed. LCDA diagnoses the dryer before recommending replacement parts.
Why is my tumble dryer taking too long to dry?
Poor drying performance does not always mean the dryer has completely stopped heating. If clothes are taking longer to dry, tell us whether they are warm but still damp, whether the programme runs longer than before and whether any warning or error is displayed. These details help describe the problem accurately before the engineer attends.
Tumble dryer error codes and warnings
If your tumble dryer displays an error code, warning symbol or indicator, include the exact information shown when booking together with the manufacturer and model number where available. Error codes vary between makes and models and are used as part of diagnosis rather than assuming a particular component has failed.
