If your Kenmore washer has stopped draining, stopped spinning or started showing a code, the technician you call should know the model line. 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.
With a Kenmore washer, the model number matters more than the badge: it tells a technician exactly which parts and repair steps apply. Find it on the label before you call.
