WASHER REPAIR
WASHING MACHINE REPAIR IN QUÉBEC: FAST, RELIABLE SERVICE
Washer parts naturally wear out over time, which can make your machine less efficient or cause it to break down. Some issues are easy to fix, while others require professional repair.
At Ateliers G. Paquette, our technicians repair all types of washers. If your machine has stopped working, don’t let the laundry pile up. For expert advice and reliable appliance repair, trust our qualified team.
TROUBLESHOOTING YOUR WASHING MACHINE
Here are tips for solving common washer problems:
YOUR WASHER WON’T FILL
Inspect your home’s water supply lines to ensure that they aren’t blocked or damaged and that the caps are securely attached. If the solenoid valves are blocked or defective, you should call in a professional.
YOUR WASHER WON’T EMPTY
Check your home’s drain pipe for kinks or jams that could prevent drainage and make sure the cap is securely closed. If your washer’s drain pump is clogged or broken, call us to resolve the issue.
Ensure that the load you’re washing is balanced and that the lid is completely closed. Inspect the drain. If the agitator doesn’t spin or spins sluggishly during the spin cycle, there’s likely a mechanical issue. If this is the case, give us a call.
YOUR WASHER SMELLS BAD
Use the right amount of detergent and fabric softener and clean the detergent dispenser regularly. Ateliers G. Paquette offers specialized products like Comerco detergent (HE2.5L) and WasherFresh™ descaling tablets (WASHERFRESH3) to keep your washer performing at its best. You can find these products at our locations or order online.

YOUR WASHER STAINS YOUR CLOTHES
Make sure that your washer is filling correctly, that you’re using the correct detergent and fabric softener (for washing machine detergent, we recommend Comerco, product no. HE2.5L) and that the amount of detergent you use is appropriate for the wash cycle and fabric type. If your detergent dispenser appears to be blocked or broken, call in one of our technicians.
YOUR WASHER DISPLAYS AN ERROR CODE
Refer to the list of error codes in your user’s manual. Many of the error codes correspond to easy-to-fix problems. If the code your machine displays isn’t listed in the user’s manual, you may have a serious mechanical failure on your hands. Contact us right away to have your washer inspected and repaired.
YOUR WASHER TEARS YOUR CLOTHES
Ensure that the washer fills properly. Also be mindful of what items you wash together (don’t mix delicate clothes with articles that have zippers or fasteners) and always select the appropriate cycle and spin options for the load size. You should also inspect the agitator for edges that could catch on clothing. If your agitator doesn’t seem to be spinning correctly, call in a qualified technician.
YOUR WASHER LEAKS
Make sure the machine empties as it should, the plumbing is properly installed and that the door’s seal and locking mechanism are in good condition. If the drain pump, solenoid valves or drum assembly undergo a mechanical failure, you’ll need to call us.
Check the distribution of the load to ensure that the drum isn’t unbalanced. Also, ensure that the washer sits level on the floor. Banging and other sounds can also be caused by clothing articles getting stuck behind the drum or a defective suspension system. Our experts can inspect your washer to find the source of the noise.
Check whether the load distribution is making the drum unbalanced, whether your washer sits level on the floor and whether the floor around your machine is wet or slippery. Alternatively, there may be a problem with the motor or the bearings. Contact us to diagnose and resolve the problem.
PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE TIPS
Regular maintenance can save you money and extend your washer’s life. Clean the detergent drawer, check hoses for leaks, and run a descaling cycle every few months. Using eco-friendly products like Comerco detergent and WasherFresh™ tablets helps prevent buildup and keeps your washer performing at its best.
