Dryer repair in Mooresville, gas and electric
About 51% of Mooresville homes heat with utility gas and about 47% with electricity, so both kinds of dryers are common here. In newer homes, the vent setup matters as much as the dryer.
We repair gas and electric dryers across Mooresville, and check the vent on each one.
Vents in new construction
In newer houses and townhomes, dryer vents often run through walls and ceilings to reach the roof or a far wall. A crushed flexible duct behind the dryer, or a long run with several bends, cuts airflow. That is the most common reason a newer dryer takes too long.
Pull the dryer out a few inches and check that the duct behind it is not flattened. It is a quick check that can save a repair.
Apartment dryers
Stacked and compact dryers in apartment closets often vent into shared or long ducts. If your apartment dryer is slow, report it to your property manager, because the vent may be outside your unit.
Gas dryers
A gas dryer that tumbles but stays cold usually has a failed igniter, flame sensor or gas valve coil. If you ever smell gas, leave and call the gas company or 911 from outside first.
Dryer repair in Mooresville: questions
My new dryer already takes two cycles. Is it defective?
Probably not. In newer homes the vent is the usual cause: a crushed duct, a long run or a clogged roof cap. We check the airflow along with the dryer.
Can you work on a stacked dryer in an apartment closet?
Yes. Tell us it is stacked when you book, and check with your property manager if you rent.

Yes. We cover both Mooresville ZIP codes, in town and out toward Lake Norman.
