Dryer timer done but sheets still cold and clammy? Hear a squeak that grows louder each week? We service gas and electric dryers for Tanglewood, Houston households.

Shade trees and dryer airflow
Mature trees cover much of this neighborhood. Their leaves and pollen collect on roofs and against outside walls. A dryer vent cap buried in leaves cannot push air out. Heat then builds inside the cabinet. The high limit switch, a safety cutoff, starts tripping the burner off. Squeaks usually come from worn drum glides or a dry idler pulley. Left alone, a worn glide can scratch the drum.
On site with your dryer
Our tech first looks at the vent cap outside and the lint path inside. Airflow is measured at the exhaust. For gas dryers, the igniter and coils on the gas valve get tested. For electric dryers, the heating coil and thermostats are checked. The belt, glides and pulley are inspected for wear. You hear the full price before any part goes in. Most of these repairs cost far less than a new dryer.
Five thousand trees overhead
Tanglewood is home to about 5,000 trees. The land was once open coastal prairie that burned often. Once homes went in, the fires stopped and trees took over. Live oaks planted by the Tanglewood Garden Club now line Tanglewood Boulevard. All that canopy drops leaves and twigs much of the year. That is why a Tanglewood dryer call always includes a look at the outside vent hood and its flap.
Dryer complaints in Tanglewood often start with a squeal or a load that stays damp. Running two cycles per load doubles the energy use. Some owners find leaves packed in the vent flap outside. We clear the exhaust, replace the worn part and confirm a full load dries.
We repair gas and electric dryers from all major brands. No heat, long dry times, loud drums and dryers that will not start are the usual calls. Same-day visits are often open, so a pile of wet laundry does not have to wait. We are licensed and insured for every repair we take on.
