Dryer repair in Temple Terrace

Dryer not heating, drum not turning, or a burning smell in Temple Terrace? We repair gas and electric dryers in homes and rentals, price the repair before starting, and warrant it for 90 days. Call (813) 822-5910.

Temple Terrace sits right next to the University of South Florida, and many homes here, from the Riverhills area to the streets near the campus, are rentals shared by several people. A dryer in a shared house can run more loads in a week than a family dryer runs in a month, and it wears out on a faster schedule.

One Temple Terrace rental, three dryer visits in 2026

This is what heavy use looks like on one dryer at one managed property:

  1. July: the dryer was not drying clothes because it made no heat. The heating element had failed and a temperature sensor was faulty. Both were replaced, and the inside of the dryer was cleaned of built up lint and dust.
  2. Early September: the dryer gave off a burning smell and an unusual noise when powered on, reported together with a washer repair at the same property.
  3. Late September: the drum would not turn while the motor hummed. The drum belt had broken and the rollers were worn. The belt and rollers were replaced.

None of these was a mystery fault. They are the normal wear parts of a dryer, failing early because of how many loads it handles.

For landlords and shared houses

  • Have the vent and the inside of the cabinet cleaned once a year, more often with several tenants.
  • Ask tenants to report squeaks and slow drying early. A worn roller costs less than a roller, a belt and a scorched cabinet.
  • Post a small note by the dryer: clean the lint screen every load.

Temple Terrace dryer questions

Why did my dryer belt break?
Belts wear out, and worn rollers make them work harder. Overloading and heavy daily use speed it up.
Do you send reports to property managers?
Yes. Each visit gets a written report of the cause and the work done.
Is a burning smell dangerous?
It can be. Stop the dryer and have it checked, because lint near the heater is a fire risk.

    Super happy with this company. Appliances break, so over the years Sam fixed our fridges (Samsung and GE), our washing machine (LG), our microwave ( Wolf) . He is fair priced and very reliable and knows everything there is to know about his job.
