The wash stops before drying can begin
Say whether water remains, the final spin was missed or washing finished before drying failed. Wet laundry alone does not identify a drying fault. Report the last normal cycle and copy any message exactly. Check the handbook's programme and spin settings without running more tests. The assessment establishes which part, if any, is needed.
Washing finishes but the drying stage does not start
Check whether the selected programme included drying. Wash-only, dry-only and combined selections differ. Samsung's linked guidance illustrates model-specific controls; do not copy one button sequence to another machine. If drying was selected but did not start, send the programme name and displayed message. A working wash cycle does not rule out a drying fault.
Drying ends early or leaves a damp load
Check the handbook's drying load and programme limits; drying capacity may differ from washing capacity. Report whether clothes stayed warm and damp, stayed cold or the programme stopped with a message. Include the model, fabrics and stage reached during normal use. Do not keep extending cycles or restart an overheating or unsafe appliance.
Water in the drum, a locked door or a new leak
Leave trapped laundry in place if the door will not open normally. Do not force the handle, open a water-filled filter or remove hoses to empty the machine; water may be hot and the release procedure is model-specific. A leak, burning smell or electrical trip means stop using the whole appliance, even if the wash-only or dry-only setting previously worked. Keep clear of wet electrical fittings and tell the office about the safety concern when requesting help.
Safe checks belong to the combination model
Keep the programme name, visible message and safely available model paperwork. Follow this washer-dryer's manual for routine care. A separate dryer's tank, filter or condenser instructions may not apply. Leave covers, internal ducts and electrical parts untouched. Contact us without diagnosing the fault, taking an internal photograph or running a demonstration cycle.
An integrated washer dryer needs access planning
Mention a furniture door, fixed worktop or cupboard that restricts access. Leave the machine connected and in place. Do not detach the door or pull it out to find a label; use paperwork if needed. For replacement fitting, send the proposed model. Door compatibility, connections, removal and alterations need separate checks and agreement.
Arrange your Woking property visit
Keep Washer dryer selected. Give the appliance address, full postcode and visit contact, including for Horsell or Knaphill; GU21 or GU22 alone is not enough. State who can approve costs for a tenant's machine. Mention parking controls, stairs and restricted access. The office checks the model, symptoms and charge before agreeing an appointment. This is a property visit enquiry, not a booked slot or a separate Woking branch.
Prepare the model and fault details
Include whether the issue occurs while washing, drying or both, plus the model number and whether it is fitted behind a cabinet door.
Include the brand and complete model reference, with any product or service number shown. Our model-number guide explains where accessible labels may be found.
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.

If you are considering a replacement
Send the old and proposed new model references, the fitting type and details of existing connections. Cabinet changes, electrical or plumbing alterations and removal or disposal need a separately agreed scope.

Washer dryer repair questions
Can I request washer dryer repair in Woking when washing still works?
Yes. Keep Washer dryer selected and describe the failed drying stage rather than booking a separate tumble dryer. Include the dry-only or combined programme, whether the earlier spin completed and the full model. Do not continue using any function after a leak, burning smell or electrical trip.
Should I select washing machine or washer dryer?
Select Washer dryer for one appliance that both washes and dries, even if only washing is affected. Two separate stacked machines remain a washing machine and a tumble dryer; identify which one has the fault and mention the stacking arrangement without moving either.
Can the full washing load always go straight into drying?
Do not assume so. The exact handbook gives drying capacity and programme restrictions, which may differ from washing capacity. Report the load and selection used before assuming a poor drying result proves a component failure.
Do I need a fault code or visible model label before contacting UKCDA?
No. Describe the brand, controls, fitting and what happened if those details are all you have. Use safely available paperwork for the model and preserve any existing message or photograph. Tell the office if the label is hidden; do not move the machine or remove panels.
Will the repair be completed at the first Woking visit?
That cannot be promised. The assessment, appliance condition and suitable parts determine the options. The office confirms the applicable charge and visit arrangements, and proposed parts need approval. Replacement fitting or other additional work requires a separate agreement.
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.
