Damp laundry after a finished programme
Say whether the programme displayed its normal end message or stopped with an alert. Describe the type and approximate size of the load and whether the result changed across several ordinary uses. Include any normal filter or container care already carried out according to the handbook. Do not remove sealed panels to reach a part because a different Bosch model’s online guide suggests it.
Noise, stopped rotation or signs of overheating
Explain whether a noise occurs throughout the programme or only as the drum starts. If the machine smells burnt, becomes unusually hot or shows damage, stop using it and tell the office rather than running another test. Access also matters: a dryer stacked above a washer or mounted in a confined cupboard needs to be identified before the engineer arrives.
Prepare the model and fault details
Let us know which dryer type you have and whether it is stacked. Stop using a machine that smells burnt or overheats.
- E-Nr and dryer type, without guessing if the type is unknown.
- Whether the drum rotates and whether the programme reaches its end.
- Exact warnings and any change in drying time or laundry result.
- Stacking arrangement, access height and ventilation layout.
Look for the E-Nr and FD numbers on the rating plate. The exact E-Nr helps distinguish similar-looking models.

Use an accessible label or appliance paperwork. Leave fitted units, heavy appliances and electrical covers in place. If you cannot reach the label safely, tell the office. Include any displayed message exactly as shown and describe what happened before the fault, without running repeated tests.
Access to the appliance in SW5 postcode area
Give the house or flat number, full postcode and the best contact for the visit. Mention stairs, lift or concierge arrangements, controlled parking and any restrictions on reaching the appliance. Tell us whether it is fitted behind a kitchen door, stacked or in a narrow cupboard.
For a tenant's or business appliance, identify who can authorise the work and who will provide access. The office checks these arrangements before agreeing an appointment.
Tumble dryer repair questions
Can a long drying time be diagnosed over the phone?
A description can help the office plan the enquiry, but it cannot establish a single cause. Model, programme, load and installation all provide context. We do not recommend buying a heater or sensor before the appliance has been assessed.
Do I need to unstack the dryer?
Do not attempt to lift or unstack it yourself for the booking. Tell us how it is fitted and whether the surrounding space is restricted so appropriate access can be discussed in advance.
Charges, scope and confirming a visit
We review the model, address and work required, explain applicable charges and confirm availability before agreeing a visit. Sending an enquiry does not take payment, reserve an appointment or guarantee a completed repair. Parts availability and the appliance's condition affect the options; further parts or work are discussed before you decide.
UKCDA is an independent repair business. Brand names identify appliances and do not imply manufacturer approval. If a manufacturer guarantee or service plan may cover the appliance, check its arrangements before requesting a chargeable visit.
