Pressure washer repair in Hobart, Indiana.
Engine runs, no pressure. Or no engine at all.
A gas pressure washer has two things that fail: the engine and the pump. The engine fails the way every small engine does, old gas and a dirty carburetor. The pump fails from being left full of water over a Lake County winter, from running without water, or from a stuck unloader valve that makes it surge or lose pressure.
We check both. No-start gets the fuel, spark and compression routine. Engine runs but no pressure gets the pump: inlet screen, unloader, check valves, seals and the wand and nozzle, because a blocked nozzle looks a lot like a dead pump. We tell you which it is and what it costs before ordering a part.
If the pump is cracked from freezing we say so plainly, and we tell you whether a new pump makes sense on that frame or whether the machine is done. Winterizing in the fall is cheaper than either answer.
Every machine gets an M6 tag when it comes in. Book a drop-off, or read how the three steps work.
Pressure washer questions
The engine runs but there is no pressure. Is the pump dead?
Not always. A blocked nozzle, a clogged inlet screen or a stuck unloader gives the same symptom. We check those before the pump and call you with the price before doing anything.
Can you winterize my pressure washer?
Yes. Pump saver in the pump, fuel treated or drained, oil changed, stored so it starts in spring. A frozen pump is the most common thing we cannot save, so fall is the time.
Do you fix electric pressure washers?
The shop is set up for gas units. For an electric one, call or text (219) 781-3814 and describe it and we will tell you straight whether it is one for us.
