Washing Machine Repair Recommendation

Recommended Posts

Very happy to recommend Steve too - he's done good work for us twice in the last year - the first time replacing a dishwasher pump, the second sorting our cooker out, which he did this morning. He turns up when he says he will, talks in plain English (as mentioned in other posts) and gives good advice on top of getting the job done. Check him out on 07921 777428.
Steve came out to fix our washing machine months ago but only just got around to writing on here...great service..very friendly and knows his stuff inside out!! also very reasonable charges...his number is firmly in my mobile just in case my Hotpoint packs up again...

Highly recommend Steve.


We used him over the Xmas period, after washing machine stopped draining the water. Phoned him early in the morning, he came late morning as he said. He sorted the problem in 15mns after he removed the chain wrapped around the pump. The pump was still working so no need to be changed. He also left the place clean despite all the water inside the washing machine. Brilliant.

Steve just sorted out our washing machine today - was quickly, good value and has saved us the cost of a new machine. Very reasonable call out charge. My Mum and Dad were very impressed too! Shall be keeping his contact in case we have any similar jobs which need sorting out. Highly recommended.

Hi,


Ive used both Steve and 'washing machine Dan' . Both of whom appear on East Dulwich Forum.


Steve has been round and fixed our machine last year, pretty quick and easy and replaced a part which he had in his van. Very happy with the repair.


However a few months after the washing machine began developing a loud banging (a different fault from before). I called Steve but he was unable to fix it. He was incredibly busy that day (probably from all his recommendations on this site) and didnt really spend enough time to get to find the problem to fix it. He didnt charge for the call out which was very nice of him but left without repairing saying he couldnt find a fault with it.


After a few more months and the banging from the machine getting unbearable and even louder. We thought as a last resort before chucking this one out and getting a new one, we'd try Dan. He spent an hour or more investigating the machine and testing it. He eventually found the problem and after a quick fix he got it up and running without the banging and without the need for new parts, saving us forking out a new machine. He also text a day later to check if everything was OK.

Per other posts, for washing machine repair, Steve the spin doctor was recommended (07921 777428) and I wish to add similar praise. I was able to book an appointment with him for the next day. He then arrived on time and fixed the internal water leak problem within 20 minutes. Further, in this time, he replaced the door seal, which was old and worn. Very impressive.
Another recommendation for Steve the Spin Doctor, in the last couple of months he's fixed our washing machine and oven. Both appliances he fixed really quickly, the oven he took apart and cleaned the mechanism as he said it wasn't worth spending money on new parts. They are up and running fine now so saved us a fortune on new appliances. Very happy.

Another recommendation for Steve. He's just retrieved the two small bits of toys that had obstructed my machine and we are no longer living under the threat of being buried alive beneath Mount Laundry Vesuvius.


Steve was round within half a day of my calling him and was quick, efficient and his rates very reasonable. I can't praise him enough. Thank you, Steve!

Thank you to Steve for efficient service, reasonable rates and being honest and upfront in fixing our AEG washing machine. It is much appreciated and I would not hesitate to recommend you.


Many thanks

Hi all,


I am just getting my flat prepared to rent out and there is a minor fault with my washing machine. I have previously used Steve (the spin doctor) who was fantastic and Dan once (also good). They are both on holiday abroad and I really need to get someone round over the weekend/Monday.

Can anyone recommend any other local repair guy?

Many thanks,

Emily

Steve came round to look at our dishwasher yesterday and was fantastic. He came within a couple of hours and didn't charge us as it turned out to be a manufacturer problem. He then called back with more advice later after doing some research. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Hi,


Can I also recommend the Spin Doctor.


On both occassions, Steve was easy to reach by mobile phone and asked all the right questions in order to asses the problem and arrange a quick call out.


He was punctual, friendly and professional. In this case the washing machine panel with the buttons you press to start the machine had fallen through into the back of the machine.


He was able to fix it very easily and the job was done within 30mins and his fee was very reasonable indeed.He also gave me some good advice to prevent me having any future problems.


I would not hestitate in recommending The Spin Doctor!

    • Received this response from TFL today (15 October)   Thank you for contacting us on 1 October regarding the ongoing diversion of the P13 bus route between Rye Lane and Sainsbury’s, Dog Kennel Hill, since 29 September. You’re absolutely right that the diversion is due to Thames Water works in the area. While other traffic may appear to be flowing freely along Avondale Rise into Ivanhoe Road, our local Service Delivery Manager has confirmed that buses are unable to safely make the turn from Avondale Rise into Ivanhoe Road in either direction. This is due to the size and turning radius of the vehicles, which differs significantly from that of smaller vehicles. We understand that diversions can be inconvenient and appreciate your patience while this work is ongoing. We’re continuing to monitor the situation closely and will restore the usual route as soon as it is safe and operationally feasible to do so. Thanks again for contacting us. If there is anything else we can help you with, please reply to this email. Alternatively, you can call us on 0343 222 1234 and we'll be happy to help you.
    • If anyone is looking for a tree surgeon, I recommend Hamish and Cut Above Tree Management. He was very helpful and personable, quick to respond and did an excellent job of removing a wonky tree in my garden with a minimum of hassle. A fantastic service!
