Yes, do tell us what the symptoms are. In my experience, many washer problems aren't all that difficult to repair yourself. Inadequate agitation and water pumpout might be just a belt in need of retensioning or something like a stone from someone's pocket jamming the water pump. Failure to fill, especially if set for just cold or hot water, might be just a need for a new mixing valve. As someone else said, parts are readily available online, and you could save a pile of money doing the job yourself.

I would call Tom Trembley at Suncook Valley Appliance repair. I have used him for all sorts of repairs in the Wolfeboro area and generally would say that if he cannot fix it, it cannot be fixed!
724-0545 or svarepair@svarepair.com
Prompt and professional service.
