Washing machine repairs for terraces and older homes

Older homes often have old laundry taps, low water pressure and drains that were never built for a modern machine. These can look like a machine fault. We work out which it is.

When the house is the problem

Low pressure at old laundry taps makes machines fill slowly, stop mid cycle or show fill codes. Old taps can also leak where the hose connects.

A drain standpipe that is too low can let water siphon out of the machine while it fills. The machine keeps filling, and it looks like a fault.

We tell you straight

We check the machine first. If the fault is in the house plumbing, we tell you so and what to ask a plumber to do. You will not pay us for a machine part you did not need.

What we fix most in older homes

  • Inlet valves and screens blocked by grit from old pipes
  • Machines that stop mid cycle on low water pressure
  • Drain hose set up so the machine does not siphon
  • Leaks at old taps and hose connections

Questions

How do I know if it is the plumbing?

If water from the laundry tub tap is weak, the house supply may be the problem. We check both.

Do you do plumbing?

No. We fix the machine. If you need a plumber, we tell you exactly what to ask for.

Is there parking near me?

Street parking is fine. If there is a permit zone, let us know.
