Washer Repair — West Palm Beach, FL
Leaking from the bottom, standing water, fills but won’t spin, or grinding on every load? We find the leak source before disassembly and carry pumps, belts, lid switches, and agitator parts on the truck. First-time customers save $20.
The washer had leaked from the bottom for two weeks — a slow drip the family managed with a towel underneath. With three kids and laundry running seven days a week, taking it offline to investigate wasn’t practical, so the call only went out when the towel started coming up soaked. The cause: a cracked front pump housing on a 9-year-old Whirlpool top-loader — a $45 part leaking a cup per cycle onto the floor and slowly warping the subfloor beneath. Bozmanfix catches these before the water damage outgrows the repair.
That’s the 33417 pattern: households on tight schedules and budgets don’t take a machine offline for a small problem, so by the time the call comes the small problem has grown. The market is dominated by older top-loaders — Whirlpool, GE, Maytag, Kenmore — running at high frequency in large families. They’re mechanically straightforward with low-cost, repairable parts: even the priciest fix (drum bearing or transmission) rarely tops $300 and buys years more life where a replacement is a real budget commitment. We work these calls fast — these homes can’t wait days, and can’t afford a slow diagnostic.
West Palm Beach Washer Failures — By Cause
💧 Leaking From the Bottom $50–$140
A bottom leak on a 33417 top-loader comes from one of three places: a cracked pump housing, a failed water inlet hose at the tub, or a worn tub seal. We run a partial fill cycle and watch the drip point to pinpoint the source before any disassembly. Pump housing $80–$140; inlet hose $50–$90 — cheap parts, but the sooner the better before floor moisture damage sets in.
🚱 Standing Water After the Cycle — Drain Pump $100–$200
High-frequency family washers wear drain pumps faster than standard-use machines. A failed pump leaves water in the tub after every cycle. We test the pump and clear any blockage before replacing, so a clog isn’t mistaken for a dead pump.
🔓 Fills but Won’t Agitate or Spin — Lid Switch $55–$100
Repeated forceful lid closing in a busy household wears the lid switch, and the machine won’t agitate or spin without it. It’s one of the most cost-effective washer repairs there is, and usually done the same visit.
🔩 Grinding on Agitation — Agitator Dogs $45–$155
Heavy high-frequency loads strip the agitator dogs (the couplings that drive the agitator), producing a grind before they fail completely and the clothes stop moving. We replace the dogs ($45–$85) or the full agitator assembly ($85–$155) depending on wear.
🔧 Drum Won’t Turn — Drive Belt $65–$120
Belt-drive top-loaders in the older stock snap belts from high-cycle use — the motor runs but the drum sits still. We replace the belt and idler pulley together and check the motor at the same time.
⚙️ Agitates but Won’t Spin — Transmission $180–$320
The most expensive top-loader repair — the machine agitates but won’t spin, or the reverse. We give an honest comparison against a used replacement machine before recommending it. On a unit under 8 years old in a high-frequency home, transmission work often makes sense.

Washer Repair in West Palm Beach — FAQ
How much does washer repair cost in West Palm Beach?
The $99 diagnostic is waived when you approve the repair. An agitator dog set runs $45–$85, an inlet hose $50–$90, a lid switch $55–$100, a drive belt $65–$120, a pump housing $80–$140, a drain pump $100–$200, and a transmission $180–$320. You get an exact quote on-site, and all repairs carry a 90-day warranty.
My washer is leaking from the bottom — how urgent is it?
More urgent than it looks. A slow drip is usually a cheap fix — a cracked pump housing ($80–$140) or a failed inlet hose ($50–$90) — but a cup of water per cycle warps the subfloor and breeds mold within weeks, and that remediation costs far more than the part. We find the leak source with a partial fill cycle and fix it same-day when possible.
My washer fills but won’t spin or agitate — what is it?
On a top-loader that’s most often a failed lid switch — the machine won’t agitate or spin unless it senses the lid closed. It’s one of the cheapest washer repairs ($55–$100) and usually same-visit. If the lid switch checks out, we look at the drive belt or transmission next.
Is it worth repairing an older top-loader?
Usually yes. These Whirlpool, GE, Maytag, and Kenmore top-loaders are mechanically simple, and most repairs — leak, pump, lid switch, agitator — are well under $200. Even the priciest fix (transmission, $180–$320) buys years more life. Where it’s a real decision is a transmission on an older machine versus a $200–$400 used replacement — we give you that honest comparison.
My washer grinds during agitation — what’s failing?
The agitator dogs — small plastic couplings that drive the agitator. Heavy, high-frequency loads wear them until they grind and eventually strip, and the clothes stop moving through the water. An agitator dog set is $45–$85; if the post is damaged too, a full agitator assembly is $85–$155.
