Common Dryer Issues
Issues we see on this service
Not Heating
Heating element, thermal fuse, or gas igniter failure. The most common dryer repair — we carry parts for most models.
Won't Start
Door switch, start switch, or thermal fuse blown. Safety components that prevent operation when faulty.
Squealing or Thumping
Worn drum rollers, belt, or idler pulley. Noise during tumbling gets worse over time if not repaired.
Takes Too Long to Dry
Clogged vent, failing heating element, or broken moisture sensor. Often a vent issue — we check both the dryer and vent system.
Overheating
Blocked vent, failed cycling thermostat, or restricted airflow. A safety hazard that needs immediate attention.
Vent Blockage
Lint buildup in the exhaust vent is a fire hazard. We offer dryer vent cleaning as a standalone service.

What our customers say
Real reviews from real customers across the Twin Cities
Harry repaired our dryer in our rental unit and I was so pleased with his service! He was prepared with the proper replacement parts because he had read the description of the problem ahead of time.
We had our dryer and dishwasher repaired recently. They show up on time, know what they're doing, and are extremely helpful when explaining the issue and how much it will cost. Definitely will continue using them!
Our dishwasher decided it was time to quit draining. I called West Metro because of their excellent reviews, and it was a great experience. They explained everything clearly and the repair was done quickly.
They were able to get a technician out to fix our dishwasher the fast I called. Justin was very nice and knew exactly what to do. He also waited for the dishwasher to fill and make sure there was no leak.
Everything about working with West Metro was so easy. I put in a request for an appointment and received a call back within minutes. The first technician arrived on the scheduled day and fixed my dishwasher perfectly.
Our stove went out the day before Thanksgiving and we were hosting. They came in, fixed our stove over the course of two days, and genuinely saved the day for us. Service was great!
