How Laundromat Washer Repairs Differ
When to Call About a Laundromat Washer
- Loud banging or shaking on the spin
- Clothes come out soaking wet
- Machine will not start from coin or card
- Leaks under the machine or around the door
Commercial laundry machines come from specialist manufacturers, so ask whether the company works on your brand and can get parts for it.
