Dryer will not turn on. Tried electrical plug, fuse, etc. Also, my freezer, icemaker is not working, if there is an appliance repair person who could fix both, that would be ideal.

When it comes to dryer repair, you can avoid the need for regular repairs by keeping the appliance clean and free of lint, and ensuring that the dryer is always properly vented. Never use plastic venting hose to prevent the danger of a fire, and get your vent hose cleaned professionally by a dryer repair service to eliminate any lint accumulation. Common dryer repair problems include a dryer that won't turn on, heats insufficiently or not at all, does not tumble, over heats or makes a lot of noise. In case of a dryer that doesn't work at all, there may not be a lot you can do. In case of a electric dryer, check the power supply to the unit by testing the power receptacle with a voltage tester or an electric appliance. If there is no power to the receptacle, look for a blown fuse or circuit breaker. If there is power to the receptacle, then look to see if the power cord is functioning properly. In case of a gas dryer, make sure that the gas supply to the appliance is turned on by checking the valve at the back of the dryer. Also, double check the main gas supply connection in the house. If your dryer has an electronic ignition, then you may have an ignition problem that must be fixed by a gas dryer repair service.
If your dryer doesn't seem to heat, look if the appliance is getting enough power. Check if it is plugged in properly, and look for tripped circuit breakers or blown fuses. Check if the main wiring connection has broken or has been burnt. If yes, then both the power cord as well as the terminal block may have to be replaced. In case of gas dryer repairs, where the dryer doesn't heat, check the setting to ensure that it's not on a heat free reading. Also, make sure the gas supply is turned on by checking the valve behind the dryer. Also, check the main gas supply connection in the house. In case your dryer has an electronic ignition, and it's not turning on, call a gas dryer repair service. In case your gas dryer has a pilot light, make sure it's burning, or relight it. If your dryer seems to be too slow, look if there is any obstruction from the vent duct of the dryer to outside. It could also be because of a partially burnt heating element. Call a professional dryer repair service to fix these.
Washing machine repairs are a little easier to undertake, because it has a simple functioning. If your washer doesn't run, then simple washer repairs will involve checking to see if the machine is receiving enough power. If the machine stops midway, but continues to hum, then there may be a trip in the overload protector. Take out some pieces of clothing from the machine, and then restart. Make sure that the power receptacle is functioning properly, and that the washer lid is completely shut. You may even have to replace the cord if the main power receptacle seems to be functioning properly. If none of these work, then it could be a problem with the controls.
