Maytag in Foster City

Maytag in Foster City kitchens.

Foster City was built as a planned community around its lagoons, and the housing splits pretty evenly between single-family homes with a garage laundry setup and condo or townhome buildings running stacked units in a closet. Bravos washers and Centennial dryers cover most of the garage side, and the stacked closets more often run a front-load pair, since a top-load Bravos will not fit under a countertop the way a front-load unit does.

The two setups fail differently. Garage Bravos machines go the way they do everywhere, lid switch first, then the gearbox bearing. Stacked front-load washers develop a musty smell from water sitting in the folds of the door boot gasket, and the drain pump wears out from all the debris that gasket traps over time. HOA buildings sometimes need a guest pass or a call ahead to the front desk, so I ask about that when I book the visit.

Water and ice systems

The water inlet valve, a common fridge leak.

Every fridge with a dispenser or ice maker has a water inlet valve. The fittings can leak under the cabinet, or the solenoid fails and the dispenser and ice maker stop getting water.

What the work looks like

A dishwasher leaking from the pump and sump.

The base of a Maytag-platform dishwasher with the lower panel off, where the circulation pump, sump, and diverter live. A worn pump seal, a cracked sump, or a bad diverter lets water past and onto the floor.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

  • Front-load door boot gasket and drain pump. Musty smell and slow draining in the condo stacks. I clean the gasket folds and check the drain pump while I am in there.
  • Bravos lid-lock switch. Garage washer clicks and will not start. Switch stocked, about 20 minutes.
  • Bravos gearbox and basket spider. Spin howl and walk. Gearbox and spider quoted together, repair-versus-replace discussed first.
  • Top-freezer defrost thermostat and evap fan. MRT and MFI fridge running warm. Defrost thermostat or evap fan motor, cheap parts I keep on the truck.

FAQ

Maytag in Foster City questions, answered.

  • Do you need building access for a condo repair?
    Sometimes. Let us know if your HOA needs a guest pass or a call ahead, and our Peninsula technician will plan the visit around it.
  • What is the diagnostic fee in Foster City?
    $99, credited toward the repair. Same price whether it is a garage Bravos or a stacked unit in a condo closet.
  • Our stacked washer smells musty even though it looks clean. What causes that?
    Usually water sitting in the folds of the door boot gasket after each load. I clean it out and check the drain pump, since a slow-draining pump keeps the gasket wetter longer than it should be.
