July 2024 Archive: Quick Fixes, Tips, and Repair Stories

Welcome to our July 2024 archive. If you’re scrolling through, chances are you’ve got an appliance acting up or you’re curious about keeping your gear in top shape. This page pulls together the most useful posts we published in July, so you can find a fix, learn a tip, or see why our team gets the job done fast.

Common July Issues and Simple Solutions

July’s heat tends to highlight a few repeat problems. Dishwashers often develop a bad smell when the filter gets clogged with food bits. A quick clean‑out of the filter and a run of the hot water cycle usually resets things. Another hot‑spot is the washing machine’s draining pump – summer storms can push debris into the hose. Unplug, detach the hose, and clear any lint or small objects before re‑assembling.

Why Same‑Day Service Works Best in Summer

We get a lot of calls in July because families are hosting barbecues and need their ovens and fridges humming. Our same‑day service means a qualified technician is at your door within hours, armed with the right parts for the most common models in Rugby. No waiting around for weeks – you get back to cooking and storing food without a hitch.

One of our July stories showed a homeowner who forgot to defrost their freezer before a power cut. The ice build‑up caused the fan to stall. Our tech cleared the ice, checked the motor, and the freezer was back to normal by dinner. That quick turnaround saved the family a ruined grocery run.

Another post highlighted a dishwasher that started leaking after a new detergent was introduced. The culprit? Too much foam creating pressure on the door seal. The fix was just a rinse of the detergent drawer and a reminder to use the right amount. Small tweaks like this keep appliances running smoother for longer.

If you’re the sort who likes to DIY, we also shared a step‑by‑step guide on resetting a fridge’s temperature sensor. Turn off the fridge, locate the sensor near the ceiling, clean any dust, and power it back up. Most of the time the fridge will recalibrate itself within 30 minutes.

Of course, not every problem can be solved with a quick tip. When a dryer’s heating element fails, it’s safer to call a pro. Our July posts emphasized that working with electricity can be risky without proper training, and that’s why our technicians are fully certified and insured.
