Common Dryer Problems We Fix
If your dryer isn’t working properly, these are the issues I most often diagnose in Louisville-area homes. I check heat, airflow, safeties, and drum support as one system so the repair is accurate.
Dryer not heating
Runs but clothes stay damp or take multiple cycles to dry.
Long dry times
Often airflow / venting related — I verify with tests before recommending parts.
Dryer won’t start
Clicks, hums, or does nothing when you press start.
Loud squealing or thumping
Worn rollers, idler pulley, or belt causing noise.
Burning smell / overheating
Heat buildup, airflow restriction, or a safety shut-down.
Drum not tumbling
Motor runs but drum doesn’t turn, or it’s stiff/hard to rotate.
Best way to help me arrive ready
When you schedule, include the brand + model number and what it’s doing (no heat, noise, stops mid-cycle, etc.). A photo of the model sticker is perfect.
What Working With Me Looks Like
Sam Willhite — Owner & Technician
“Most dryer problems come down to heat, airflow, or worn drum components. I test the full system so you don’t replace parts you didn’t need.”

Dryer Repair FAQ
Why is my dryer running but not heating?
The most common causes are airflow restrictions (venting), a failed heating component, or a safety device opening due to overheating. I test airflow + heat + safeties so the fix is accurate.
Is a noisy dryer safe to keep using?
Usually not a great idea. A worn roller, belt, or idler can fail completely and cause more damage. Catching it early often keeps the repair smaller and cheaper.
Do you repair gas and electric dryers?
Yes. When you schedule, tell me whether it’s gas or electric and the brand/model if you have it handy.
What areas do you serve?
Louisville, OH and surrounding communities (including Canton, North Canton, Massillon, Alliance, and nearby areas). If you’re unsure, submit your address and we’ll confirm quickly.
What can I do before you arrive?
Clean the lint filter and (if possible) confirm the outside vent flap opens when the dryer runs. Don’t take the unit apart — just send the model number and symptoms so I can prepare.
