Dryer Repair in Toronto & GTA — Same-Day Booking

Professional Dryer Repair Across Toronto & the GTA

When your dryer stops heating, refuses to tumble, or takes three cycles to dry a single load, laundry backs up fast. Fixlify Appliance Services provides same-day dryer repair to homes across Toronto and the GTA, getting your machine back to full performance without unnecessary delays or inflated pricing.

Dryers come in two main varieties — electric and gas — and each has distinct failure patterns. Electric dryers rely on a resistive heating element, a thermal fuse, a cycling thermostat, and a high-limit thermostat to regulate heat. When any of these components fails, the dryer runs but produces no heat, which is the single most common dryer complaint we handle across the GTA. Gas dryers use an igniter and gas valve coils to produce heat, and these components wear out over time, especially in older homes where the dryer runs daily for larger families.

Beyond heating issues, dryers can develop problems with the drum belt, drum rollers, idler pulley, blower wheel, or the motor itself. A squealing or thumping noise during operation usually points to worn drum rollers or a frayed belt. Clothes taking unusually long to dry can signal a clogged vent line — a safety issue that also drives up your electricity or gas bill. Our technicians inspect the entire system on every service call to catch secondary problems before they become expensive failures.

Dryer Vent Safety

A clogged dryer vent is more than an inconvenience — it is a fire hazard. Lint accumulates in the exhaust duct over time, restricting airflow and causing the dryer to overheat. The Canadian Fire Commissioner reports that dryer lint buildup is a leading cause of residential fires. We recommend professional vent cleaning every 12-18 months, and our technicians inspect the vent condition during every repair visit at no additional charge.
