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.

Before conducting any dryer repairs, make sure that you switch off all power to the unit. Here are a few basic steps you can take to fix your dryer before calling a professional dryer repair service. One of the most common dryer repair problems is a dryer that doesn't turn on. If this happens, make sure that the dryer is receiving enough power. Check the power receptacle, and if there is no problem with the power supply, then look for a properly functioning door switch. In case of a defective door switch, you may have to replace the part. There could also be a problem with the main wiring connection, like burnt or broken wiring. If this is the problem, then the terminal block located inside the dryer, as well as the power cord must be replaced. If the dryer doesn't heat, again check if the power supply is sufficient. It could also be because of a burnt out heating element. If there is a burnt thermal fuse, this may have to be replaced. In case of a gas dryer, make sure that the gas valve supply is turned on at the back of the dryer, and that the main gas supply is turned on.
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.
Basic washing machine repairs tend to be easier because of the simple working of the machine. If your washer doesn't agitate, look for a broken or loose belt. You can replace or tighten the belt yourself, or call a washer repair service to replace it for you. There could also be control problems that can be fixed by a repair man. If the washer doesn't drain, look for a broken tab on the lid. If the lid switch doesn't click when you press and release the switch, then it may be broken and may have to be replaced. Your water pump could be clogged with pieces of fabric. These are problems that should be handled by a professional washing machine repair service.
