To find an engineer to repair your Hoover appliance (or any other brand of appliance) try my washing machine and domestic appliance repairs page which features a choice of several repairers (if your washing machine is under guarantee see the Hoover / Candy ad)
1 Answer
If your Hoover washing machine needs repairing, the sensible first step is to use a proper appliance repair service rather than a general handyman, especially if the machine is still under warranty.
1. Check whether it is still under guarantee If it is, contact Hoover/Candy first. Using an independent engineer while under guarantee can sometimes affect your cover.
2. Have the model details ready The engineer will usually need the full model number and, ideally, the serial number. These are normally found just inside the door opening or on the rating plate.
3. Describe the fault clearly Note what it is doing or not doing, for example: - not draining - not spinning - tripping electrics - leaking - noisy on spin - dead with no lights
4. Do a couple of basic checks first Before booking, check the plug fuse, water supply, and whether the pump filter is blocked if accessible. This can sometimes save a call-out.
5. Use a washing machine/domestic appliance repairer A specialist repairer is more likely to carry common Hoover/Candy parts and understand typical faults on that brand.
Always isolate the appliance from the mains before inspecting any internal parts. For any mains electrical work, or if you are unsure, use a qualified appliance engineer.
Hope that helps you find the right repair option.

SAFETY FIRST: READ BEFORE ACTING ON THIS GUIDANCE
Never work on a live appliance
Always unplug it at the mains before going near it with any tools.
Never attempt gas work
By law, gas appliances must only be worked on by a Gas Safe registered engineer. If your fault involves gas, stop and call a professional. Do not attempt it yourself.
Watch for sharp edges
Outer panels are smooth, but internal parts have sharp machined edges. Wear protective gloves and arm sleeves.
Water appliances can leak
Turn off the water supply before disconnecting any hoses.
Know your limits
If you are not confident testing or working inside the appliance, stop and call a professional.
