Comprehensive solutions for all dryer malfunctions
If your dryer spins but doesn't heat, it could be a faulty heating element, thermal fuse, gas valve coils, or thermostat. We diagnose the exact cause to restore proper drying temperatures.
A dryer that refuses to start might have a broken door switch, blown thermal fuse, bad start switch, or control board issue. We trace the electrical problem to get it running again.
Squealing, thumping, or rumbling sounds often indicate worn drum rollers, idler pulleys, or blower wheels. We replace worn components to restore quiet operation.
If the motor runs but the drum doesn't turn, you likely have a broken belt. We replace drive belts and inspect the idler pulley and motor to ensure smooth rotation.
Extended drying times can signal clogged vents, weak heating elements, or moisture sensor issues. We improve efficiency to save you time and energy costs.
Modern dryers display error codes when something is wrong. We have the technical data to interpret these codes and troubleshoot complex electronic control failures.
Dryers come in two main types: gas and electric. Each has unique components and potential issues. Our team is fully qualified to handle both.
We repair heating elements, high-limit thermostats, and 240V, electrical connections. We ensure your electric dryer operates safely and efficiently.
Working with gas appliances requires specialized care. We repair gas valve coils, igniters, and flame sensors. We strictly check for gas leaks and ensure proper combustion for your safety.
Regardless of the power source, we also service features like steam cycles, moisture sensors, and wifi connectivity found in modern premium dryers.

"Our Samsung dryer just stopped heating. I called La Jolla A-Tech in the morning, and they had a technician out by early afternoon. He found a blown thermal fuse and checked our vent, which was clogged! He fixed the dryer and advised on vent cleaning. Super helpful."

"My LG gas dryer was making a terrible screeching noise. The technician was polite, wore shoe covers, and quickly diagnosed worn rollers. He had the parts in his truck and fixed it right then. No more noise! Highly recommend."
- Sarah Jenkins, Bird Rock
"We have a Miele stackable dryer that is tricky to access. Other companies refused to work on it. La Jolla A-Tech sent a specialist who knew exactly what to do. Professional, clean, and knowledgeable about high-end European brands."
