Common washing machine problems we fix
- Will not drain, water left in the drum. Almost always a blocked or failed drain pump, a clog in the drain hose, or a jammed coin or sock in the pump. One of the most common and affordable washer repairs.
- Will not spin, or clothes come out soaking. A worn drive belt, a lid switch or door lock, a motor coupler, or a control problem. Front-loaders often show this as a door-lock fault.
- Leaking water onto the floor. A cracked hose, a failed door boot (front-load), a loose or corroded tub seal, or an overfilling water valve.
- Will not fill or fills slowly. Clogged inlet screens, a failed water inlet valve, or low supply pressure.
- Shaking, banging, walking across the floor. Worn suspension rods or shock absorbers, or an unbalanced load. On older top-loaders it can be the tub bearing.
- No power, or dead mid-cycle. A door lock, a control board, or a failed thermal fuse.
- Will not start or stops partway. Lid switch, door lock, or main control board.

Repair or replace a washer?
Washers last about 8 to 12 years. Inside that window, pumps, belts, valves, switches and door boots are almost always worth repairing. The one repair that tips toward replacement is a failed tub bearing on an older machine, because it is labour-heavy and runs $350 to $500. If your washer is past 10 years and needs a bearing, we will lay out the math honestly rather than talk you into it.
Front-load vs top-load
Front-loaders bring two Winnipeg-specific headaches: door boot seals that mildew and tear, and drain pumps that catch coins and underwire. They are very repairable, and replacing a boot or pump is far cheaper than a new machine. Top-loaders more often show lid switches, belts and, on high-mileage units, tub bearings. We service both.
Do this before you call
- If it will not drain, check the drain hose is not kinked and the pump filter (front-load, small door at the bottom front) is not clogged. Have a towel ready, it holds water.
- If it will not spin, redistribute the load and try again; a badly unbalanced load trips the safety.
- Confirm both hot and cold taps behind the machine are open if it will not fill.
- Note the exact symptom and any error code on the display. Codes narrow the diagnosis fast.
Brands we repair

Frequently asked questions
Why won't my washer drain?
Nine times out of ten it is a blocked or failed drain pump, a clogged drain hose, or something caught in the pump like a coin or a sock. It is one of the most common and least expensive washer repairs.
How much does washer repair cost in Winnipeg?
Most washer repairs land between $150 and $400 in parts and labour. A drain pump or belt is at the lower end; a tub bearing is at the top and is often the point where replacing an older machine makes more sense.
Is it worth repairing a front-load washer?
Usually yes. The common front-load failures, door boot seals and drain pumps, are affordable fixes and much cheaper than a new machine. A tub bearing on an old unit is the exception.
Can you fix it the same day?
Most Winnipeg washer calls are same-day or next-day, and we stock the common pumps, belts and valves on the truck.
My washer is leaking, should I keep using it?
Stop using it and unplug it if water is reaching the floor or an outlet. Leaks are usually a hose, door boot or valve, all straightforward to repair once we see which.
