Andy was so helpful! He fixed my stove, washer and cleaned my dryer vents. The price was reasonable and he was so efficient. He was a pleasure to work with.
Prompt, informative and knowledgeable person. Repair was quick and thorough.
Two young men came to repair my washing machine. They arrived on time with all the necessary equipment and tools to complete the repair. They were competent, polite and helpful and did an outstanding job on the repair. While in my home, I also had them clean out the accumulated lint in my dryer. About an hour or two after they left I had a little problem with the dryer. I called Andy and he returned to my home promptly to remedy the problem. I think these guys are great and clearly dedicated to doing a good job and leaving their customers happy at the completion of a repair. I would certainly use them again.
Andy was prompt, professional and did a great job identifying and repairing my dryer. I will absolutely contact him again for future repair jobs and I have already referred him to a friend! Highly recommend!
Excellent service. Fixed my washer and dryer with no issues. Offered to clean my vent as well which was done very well. Professional service, very courteous, and efficient. Definitely recommend.
Andy was courteous, knowledgeable, polite, professional and arrived on a timely basis. It was a pleasure dealing with Andy. I would recommend Appliance Masters in the future.
A dryer that runs cold, takes two cycles or makes a new noise is worth a call before it becomes a bigger repair. Appliance Masters repairs gas and electric dryers of every major brand across St. Petersburg, and we look at the vent as well as the machine.
Close to the water, dryer vents in St. Petersburg wear out from the outside in. Metal vent hoods and flaps on homes near the bay, on Snell Isle and around Coffee Pot Bayou (33704) corrode in the salt air, and a flap that sticks open lets in humid air, insects and the occasional nesting bird. Some older homes in Old Northeast route the vent under the floor or through a crawl space, where the duct is hard to inspect and can collect moisture. In Downtown (33701) and the waterfront towers, dryers often exhaust through long horizontal runs toward a shared shaft, so lint builds up in places a homeowner cannot reach. Add the humidity of the Gulf coast, and a dryer that would be fine in a drier climate ends up running long, hot cycles here.
Common Dryer Issues in St. Petersburg
Corroded or stuck vent hood
A damaged exterior hood restricts airflow and invites pests. We check the vent from the dryer to the outlet and tell you when the hood itself needs replacing.
No heat on an electric dryer
Usually the thermal fuse, the heating element or a thermostat. We test the heating circuit and find out why the part failed so it does not fail again next month.
Gas dryer that clicks but will not ignite
Weak igniters and worn valve coils are common causes. We test the ignition system and confirm the burner lights and stays lit through the cycle.
Drum will not turn
A broken belt, a failed motor or a worn idler pulley. We replace the part and check the rollers while the dryer is open.
Clothes come out damp in a condo
Long shared vent runs lose airflow as lint builds up. We measure airflow at the back of the dryer and explain whether the fix is in the unit or in the building's duct.
What You Get With Every Visit
Same-day visits across St. Petersburg, a full airflow check on each dryer call, upfront pricing and a written warranty.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does my dryer take so long near the water?▼
Humid intake air and a restricted vent are the usual pair. Clean the lint screen every load, and if cycles are still long, the vent route or the heater needs a check.
Do you replace exterior dryer vent hoods?▼
We inspect them on every dryer visit and tell you when a corroded hood is limiting airflow. Where the hood sits on a finished exterior wall, we will say if a contractor is the better choice for the replacement.
Can you repair a dryer in a downtown condo tower?▼
Yes. We work within building access rules and can tell you whether a drying problem comes from the dryer or from the building's shared exhaust.
Do you work in Northeast St. Petersburg?▼
Yes, including Old Northeast, Snell Isle, Crescent Lake and Downtown.
