Mr. Fixer technician: dryer repair in Marietta, GA
Serving Marietta from our Kennesaw office

Most dryers we fix in Marietta still turn on; they just stop drying well. A cycle that used to take 45 minutes now needs two runs, and the laundry room feels warm afterward. That pattern almost always involves airflow, and it is worth fixing quickly because a hot, lint-clogged dryer is a fire risk.

Mr. Fixer technicians cover Marietta from our Kennesaw office. Book an $80 diagnostic, credited toward the repair if you go ahead; standard-brand dryer repairs start from $180 plus parts. We repair both gas and electric models from Maytag, Whirlpool, Samsung, LG and more.

Marietta houses and their dryer vents

Cobb County's planning profile describes East Cobb's growth in the 1970s, '80s and '90s as a wave of cul-de-sac subdivisions. In many of those two-story homes, the dryer sits on an inside wall and vents through a long run to the outside, sometimes up through the roof. A long or crushed vent makes the dryer run hot and cycle on its safety thermostat, which feels like "no heat" to the owner.

Around the Square and in the Church Street-Cherokee Street historic district, houses range from the late 1800s to the mid-1900s. Laundry in those homes was often fitted into a basement, mudroom or enclosed porch, and vents were routed wherever they fit. Older flexible foil ducts are still common behind dryers there.

Gas dryers are found in both areas. If you smell gas, do not run the dryer: leave the house and call your gas utility before calling us.

In Marietta townhomes and apartments, stacked laundry pairs in hall closets are common. Those need the dryer pulled forward to inspect the vent connection, which we handle as part of the diagnostic.

Common dryer problems we fix in Marietta

Heats a little, dries slowly

The cycling thermostat is shutting the heat off early because exhaust cannot escape. We confirm the cause and test the thermostats and high-limit.

Electric dryer cold

Open heating element or blown thermal fuse are common. Our dryer not heating guide explains why one often follows a vent problem.

Gas dryer igniter glows, no flame

Gas valve coils are the frequent cause. This is a repair for a technician, not a DIY job.

Drum stopped, motor hums

A broken belt or seized idler pulley. If the belt broke on an older machine, we also check the drum rollers.

Cycle ends with clothes still damp

On sensor-dry cycles, a coating of fabric softener residue on the moisture sensor bars can fool the dryer into stopping early. We clean and test the sensor before suggesting a control board.

First time using Mr. Fixer. Joseph came out for our LG dryer, figured out why it wasn’t drying properly and took care of it. Communication from the office was good too. I’d use them again.

Dryer Repair in Marietta: FAQs

My East Cobb dryer vents through the roof. Can that cause slow drying?

Yes, roof vents are long and lint tends to settle in them. We check airflow at the dryer during diagnosis. We do not clean vents ourselves, so if the vent needs it, we recommend a dryer vent cleaning service.

Do you repair older dryers in historic Marietta homes?

Yes, as long as parts are available. Many older Whirlpool-built machines are still very repairable. If a part is discontinued, we will tell you before any work is done, not after.

How soon can you come to Marietta?

Often the same day from our Kennesaw office. Call (678) 866-3669 or book online. Scheduling is open 24/7, and technicians are out Monday to Friday, 8 AM to 6 PM.
