With Singapore’s humid weather, electronics and electrical wiring tend to suffer, and washing machines are no different. When it decides to sluggishly spin, refuse to start, leak water, or make strange noises that come from a horror movie, that’s when you might want to have it checked out by a professional.
At Pro Handyman, we can fix all kinds of washing machine problems like drainage, electrical faults, broken belts, and malfunctioning drums. We’ll inspect, diagnose, and then fix your machine so it’s running smoothly again. If your washing machine is acting up, give us a call and we’ll get you back to laundry day in no time.
With many moving components, washing machines can be finicky creatures and often act up. Here are the services we provide to fix them!
Drum and Bearing Repair
A noisy or shaky spin cycle usually means there’s a problem with the drum or bearings. Over time, these parts wear out or loosen, causing your machine to rattle or make grinding sounds. We’ll inspect, tighten, or replace the faulty components so your washing machine runs quietly and smoothly again. Fixing this early prevents bigger issues like drum misalignment or motor strain.
Water Drainage and Pump Repair
If your washing machine isn’t draining properly or leaves water sitting in the drum, the issue could be a clogged hose, faulty pump, or blocked filter. We’ll find the cause, clear any obstructions, and repair or replace the drainage pump if needed. Proper drainage is crucial to avoid bad smells, mould, and damaged laundry.
Electrical and Power Faults
Washing machines rely on stable power and wiring to operate properly. If your machine won’t turn on, shuts off mid-cycle, or keeps tripping the circuit breaker, we’ll inspect the electrical components to pinpoint the problem. From faulty switches to damaged control boards, our technicians can safely repair or replace them.
Door Lock and Seal Replacement
Over time, rubber seals can crack, and door locks can jam due to wear and tear, dirt, or detergent buildup. We’ll replace the damaged seals or locks, making sure your washing machine is watertight and secure before starting any cycle.
Motor and Belt Replacement
If your washing machine drum isn’t spinning right, the problem might be a worn-out motor or a broken belt. These parts handle a great deal of stress and eventually wear down with frequent use. We’ll assess the damage, replace what’s necessary, and test your machine to make sure everything runs smoothly.
Semi-Automatic Top-Loading
Semi-automatic top-loading machines come with two tubs: one for washing and another for drying. After washing, you just move the clothes over to the drying side, and you’re good to go. They give you a bit more control over each cycle and use less water. If yours starts leaking, spinning oddly, or making strange noises, we can fix it fast.
Fully Automatic Top-Loading
Fully automatic top-loading machines are the ultimate time-savers. Just load your clothes, hit start, and let the machine handle everything from wash to rinse to spin. But when it stops mid-cycle or doesn’t drain properly, it’s time to call in the pros. We’ll sort out any issues with sensors, pumps, or motors so your washing machine’s good to go again.
Washer and Dryer Combination
Washer-dryer combos are a lifesaver for smaller homes without drying racks, giving you washing and drying in one compact unit. But when they act up, they can be tricky to repair. Whether it’s a drying issue, drainage problem, or control error, our team knows how to handle these all-in-one machines.
Stackable Washing Machine
Stackable washing machines are perfect when you’re short on space but have a lot of laundry to do. They save floor space and usually handle big loads too. If your stackable unit starts shaking, leaking, or refusing to spin, we’ll get it back in shape. Our team repairs both the washer and dryer sections, so your space-saving setup keeps running like new.
Integrated Washing Machine
Integrated washing machines are built to blend in perfectly with your kitchen cabinets. But when something goes wrong, repairs can be tricky without the right know-how. Our handymen are experienced in handling built-in models without damaging your cabinetry. Whether it’s a leak, power issue, or drum problem, we’ll fix it neatly and get your machine back to working quietly.
Compact or Portable Washing Machine
Compact and portable washing machines are great for apartments or smaller homes where space is tight. They’re easy to move around and still get the job done. But when they stop spinning or start leaking, it can be a hassle. We’ll check the motor, hoses, and controls to get it working properly again.
Repairing a washing machine can take some know-how, and everyone does things differently, but here’s how WE do it.
Step 1: Inspection and Diagnosis
First, our handyman checks your washing machine from top to bottom, listening to the noises, checking the drum, and checking for leaks. We’ll figure out exactly what’s wrong, whether it’s a power issue, motor problem, or a sock that’s somehow gone rogue inside the drum. Once we know the cause, we’ll explain it clearly to you so you can decide what to do about it.
Step 2: Honest Quotation
Next up, we give you a clear, honest quote before starting. No hidden fees, no surprise charges halfway through. You’ll know exactly what the repair involves, how long it’s likely to take, and what it’ll cost.
Step 3: Repair and Replacement
Now, we roll up our sleeves and get to work, whether it’s fixing wiring, swapping a faulty pump, or giving the motor a well-deserved tune-up. We use quality parts that last, not quick fixes that break again next week.
Step 4: Testing and Quality Check
Once the repairs are done, we test everything to make sure your washing machine is back in top shape. We’ll run a full cycle to check the spin, rinse, and drain functions. If it passes our tests, you’ll know it’s ready to tackle your next mountain of clothes. If not, we tweak it until it’s perfect.
Step 5: Cleanup and Handover
Finally, we tidy up and walk you through what we did. You’ll get some quick care tips to help keep your washing machine running smoothly. We’ll make sure you’re happy with the results before we leave, then we’ll get out of your hair and leave you to laundry day.
Washing machines have many fast-moving components, and the wear and tear on them is incredible. Malfunctioning machines are more common than you think. Here are some reasons why your machine might be acting up.
Washing machines have many fast-moving components, and the wear and tear on them is incredible. Malfunctioning machines are more common than you think. Here are some reasons why your machine might be acting up.
Blocked Drain Hose
When your washing machine won’t drain properly or leaves water sloshing around, a clogged drain hose is usually the culprit. Lint, dirt, or even that missing sock might be blocking the hose. This can cause the cycle to stop halfway or, worse, flood your laundry area. A quick cleaning or hose replacement usually fixes the problem.
Worn-Out Drive Belts
If your washing machine spins slower than usual, the drive belt might be worn out. Over time, belts loosen or crack, making it hard for the drum to turn properly. You might even hear squeaking or burning smells. Replacing the belt is an easy fix that brings your washer’s spin cycle back to full power.
Failed Motor
When your washing machine refuses to start or stops mid-cycle, the motor could be calling it quits. Motors work hard every wash, so wear and tear is expected after years of service. You might hear humming or grinding noises before it gives out completely. Don’t worry—our team can repair or replace the motor so your washing machine gets back to full steam ahead.
Leaking Water Inlet Valves
If you notice water dripping even when your washing machine isn’t running, chances are, the inlet valve is to blame. This part controls how much water enters the drum, and when it leaks, it can lead to puddles or uneven washing cycles. Replacing the valve quickly prevents water waste and floor damage.
Damaged Door Seal or Lid Switch
A broken door seal or faulty lid switch can stop your washing machine from starting, or worse, leave you mid-cycle with a drum full of soapy clothes. The seal also keeps water from leaking out, so when it’s cracked or loose, things can get messy fast. Replacing these parts keeps your washer safe, watertight, and working as it should.
Faulty Control Panel or Sensors
If your washing machine starts acting like it’s got a mind of its own—skipping cycles, flashing random lights, or refusing to respond, the control panel or sensors might be at fault. A quick diagnostic check can spot the issue, and repairing it gets your washer back in sync.

If your washer shakes excessively, it’s probably not balanced correctly. Uneven placement or wobbly legs can cause extra vibration, noise, and long-term wear. Make sure it’s level on the ground, and adjust the feet if needed. Adding a rubber mat can also help with stability.
