A Kenmore washer shares most of its basic parts with other washers, but its drive design, lid or door lock, controls and error codes are specific to the brand. We flag companies whose listing or website mentions Kenmore and fill in with nearby appliance repair companies so you always have options.
This is an independent directory. We are not affiliated with Kenmore, and the technicians listed are independent repair companies, not the manufacturer.
If you bought your Kenmore at Sears, you do not need to go back to Sears for a repair. Independent technicians near Boiling Spring Lakes work on Kenmore washers regularly.
