Dryer Repair in Santa Ana, CA
Most no-heat calls come down to a thermal fuse, a heating element, or a high-limit thermostat on electric, or an igniter, flame sensor, or valve coils on gas. Noise is usually drum rollers, the idler pulley, or the rear bearing. A dryer that runs but leaves clothes damp is almost always the vent, not the dryer — we check the vent before we sell anyone a part.
$65 diagnostic, waived when you approve the repair. Completed repairs start at $200.

These are estimated prices, not a quote. The final price is confirmed after the technician inspects the machine.
The range covers the common repair on a freestanding unit. Control boards and drive motors are quoted separately, and board and motor parts vary by model. Stacked and closet-installed sets are quoted after inspection — pulling and restacking adds time to the job.
Under 10 years old, a machine is almost always worth repairing. Past that, we'll tell you straight whether the repair or a new machine is the better use of your money.
