When the Washer Needs a Technician
- Washer fills slowly or not at all
- Musty smell from a front-loader
- Water left in the drum after the cycle
Dryer Problems Worth a Call
- Cycles take two or three runs to finish
- Burning or hot smell during a cycle
- Squealing, thumping or grinding while it runs

Most visits cover one machine; mention both if both are acting up. More: dryer not drying and dryer not spinning.
