Repair Service Built for Philadelphia-Area Homes
The 19125 ZIP code covers Fishtown and East Kensington along the Delaware, from Penn Treaty Park up through the Frankford Avenue corridor. Older brick rowhouses share the blocks with converted factory lofts and a large number of new-construction rowhomes, often with laundry on the second floor. A washer upstairs on a wood-framed floor behaves differently than one on basement concrete.

Upstairs Washers: Vibration, Walking and Floor Protection
Front-load washers spin very fast, and on a framed floor that spin can turn into shaking you feel through the house or a machine that creeps across the closet. Often the cause is simple. Shipping bolts left in a new washer cause violent shaking and can damage the machine, so check that they were removed. Leveling feet that are not locked or that sit unevenly make it rock, and a single heavy item, such as a bath mat or comforter, throws the load off balance.
If the washer is level and still shakes, worn shock absorbers or suspension springs, a damaged drum spider or failing bearings may be the cause, especially if the noise gets louder on spin. Pedestal drawers can add wobble; make sure any pedestal is the right one for the model and is bolted in place. Anti-vibration pads help some installations but do not fix mechanical wear.
Upstairs, the floor also needs protection. A drain pan, braided supply hoses and an inexpensive water alarm are worth having, and stacked units should have their stacking kit properly installed.
Before an Upstairs Laundry Visit
Make sure the closet door can be removed or opened fully and that the space in front of the washer is clear. If the washer is stacked, let us know so the right help is planned. Frankford Avenue and the side streets fill up quickly, so a parking suggestion is welcome.
