Repairs in Carrick & Mount Oliver
15210 covers much of the city's southern hilltop neighborhoods, Carrick, Beltzhoover, Knoxville, Allentown and part of the South Side Slopes, plus Mount Oliver, a separate borough surrounded by the city, and an edge of Baldwin.
Several municipalities share 15210, and the town printed on your mail isn't always the one that governs your street. We serve the whole ZIP with the rest of South Side, Mount Washington, Hazelwood & Homestead.
Housing is mostly older single-family houses and duplexes, many of them rented, set close together on hilly streets. The washer and dryer are nearly always in the basement.
Something specific to Carrick & Mount Oliver
Older houses here often run the laundry off basement circuits added long after the house was built. If a breaker trips when the dryer starts, tell us: the fault can be in the dryer, the cord or the circuit, and we'll tell you which one it is.
Hills, hand trucks and heavy parts
Most repairs in Carrick, Knoxville and Mount Oliver need only a toolbag and the part. When a heavy part like a washer drum or a compressor is involved, the route from the curb to the machine decides how the job is planned.
If the only way in is up a long stair, we'll tell you in advance whether the repair can be done in place.
Houses set into the hill
Plenty of houses in Carrick, Knoxville and Mount Oliver are built into the slope, with the basement at ground level on one side and buried on the other. The buried wall stays cool and damp, and laundry machines set against it pick up moisture.
Pull the washer and dryer a few inches off that wall if you can, and keep the dryer's exhaust duct short and smooth. A long, sagging duct in a cool basement collects damp lint and slows every load.
Winter in an unheated basement
Some basements in Carrick, Knoxville and Mount Oliver get properly cold in January. A washer's hoses and valve can stiffen, water left in the pump can freeze in a very cold room, and a detergent drawer can gum up.
If the machine is in a cold spot, let the room warm up before running it after a deep freeze. A cracked hose or a pump that suddenly leaks after a cold night is a call worth making.
