LG Dryer Repair Without the Runaround
Most of our LG dryer calls start the same way: a load that won't dry and a household that still needs clean clothes tomorrow.
LG is one of the 15 brands we repair, and LG dryers are squarely on our list. BA Appliance Repair Service started in 2006 when Adam Bigelow's father opened his own company, and Adam runs it today with six technicians, all on the BA payroll. When you call, we ask for the brand, model number and what the dryer is doing, because that lets the technician collect model-specific parts before heading out on the route. At your home, we explain the problem before we fix it, so you're comfortable with the repair before it happens. One note for LG households: we repair LG washers, dryers, dishwashers and cooking appliances, but we don't service LG refrigerators.
LG Dryer Problems We Fix
Five LG dryer complaints, what tends to cause them, and how our technicians approach each repair.
Loud Thumping in Every Load
Thumping and squealing are the top reasons people call us about any dryer, LG included. A thump that keeps time with the drum usually comes from worn drum rollers. Not every dryer has rollers, though. Some support the drum on felt seals, so it glides rather than rolls. Our technician identifies which setup your LG uses and replaces only what has worn out.
Drum Sits Still While the Dryer Runs
If your LG powers up but the drum won't turn, we start with the motor and the start switch, the two parts behind a dryer that won't spin. Have the model number ready when you book, because our technicians pick up model-specific parts in the morning and aim to wrap up the repair in a single visit to your home.
Cold Air on the Heat Setting
An electric LG that blows cold air usually needs a new heating element, and a gas LG usually needs its gas coils replaced. Before you book, feel the load at the end of a cycle. Cold and soaking wet is a dryer fault. Warm but slightly damp clothes after a full, hot cycle usually point to the vent, and vent cleaning isn't part of what we do.
Running Too Hot
An LG dryer that runs hotter than it should usually has one of two problems. Lint can build up inside the machine and trap heat, and clearing that out is part of our repair. Or a wire in the heating element has grounded, which we fix by repairing the wire or swapping in a new element. Either way, it's a repair to schedule rather than put off.
Won't Start When You Press the Button
No response at all usually comes down to the door switch or the operating thermostat. The operating thermostat is one of four that most dryers use, together with the cycling, high limit and safety thermostats. Testing tells us which part has failed on your LG, so you aren't paying for a pile of parts that were never the problem.
Got an LG Fridge Too?
LG refrigerators are not something we repair. For your LG dryer, washer, dishwasher or range, call and we'll get you booked.

LG Dryer Service Call Pricing
A visit to diagnose an LG dryer costs $125. We bill that on its own line and price the repair separately, so the labor and parts are spelled out instead of folded together. Since the cost of a repair depends on what failed, our technician gives you the number on site, after the dryer is open and the cause is confirmed. Nothing is installed until you approve it.

LG Dryer Repair Questions
Do you fix LG gas dryers as well as electric?+
Yes, we repair both. A gas LG with no heat usually needs gas coils, and an electric LG with no heat usually needs a heating element. Our technician confirms which part has failed before quoting the repair, so you aren't paying for a guess.
My LG dryer leaves clothes damp. Should I book a repair?+
Check one thing first. If the dryer heats, tumbles and completes the cycle but the clothes are warm and a little damp, the vent is the more likely cause, and vent cleaning isn't a service we provide. If clothes come out cold and wet, that's a dryer problem, and we can fix it.
Do you service LG refrigerators?+
No. We don't work on LG refrigerators. We do repair LG dryers, washers, dishwashers, ovens, ranges and cooktops. If your refrigerator is from another brand on our list, see our refrigerator repair page.
What does an LG dryer service call cost?+
$125 for the visit and diagnosis. The repair is quoted separately once the technician knows what failed, and we don't start until you approve the price. Labor and materials are listed as their own lines so you can see where the money goes.
Why does my dryer always seem to break in summer?+
Summer laundry piles up fast, with kids outdoors and sports uniforms to wash, so dryers run more loads. That's also when our phones get busier. Booking as soon as the noise or heat problem starts gives you a better pick of appointment blocks.
How should I use my LG dryer after the repair?+
Normally, and often. Run it hard during the 90-day warranty window so any weakness in the new part shows up while it's still covered. If something isn't right in that time, call and we'll take another look.
