"We recently had the pleasure of working with Lacie and Mike from S&W Kitchens in South Tampa on a bathroom project, and we cannot express enough how impressed we were with their combined talents and professionalism. Lacie's design skills are truly exceptional. She transformed our initial bathroom concept into visually appealing results that exceeded our expectations. What really stood out was Lacie's extraordinary patience with us during the initial design process. As we deliberated over various options and changed our minds numerous times, she remained consistently supportive and understanding, never rushing us as we worked to finalize our vision. Her creativity, paired with her ability to understand exactly what we were looking for, made the design process very smooth. As for Mike, his project management skills were outstanding, especially when faced with significant challenges. Despite our bathroom renovation being delayed by two hurricanes, Mike kept everything as organized as possible, and his calm demeanor kept the project moving forward. Lacie and Mike’s collaborative approach at S&W Kitchens created a perfect balance, even when Mother Nature had other plans. They demonstrated remarkable resilience and commitment to quality despite the weather-related setbacks. We would not hesitate to work with S&W Kitchens, especially Lacie and Mike, again, and would enthusiastically recommend them to anyone looking for top-tier bathroom renovation."

On average, modern washers last between 11 and 14 years. If you use your washing machine frequently (more than once a week), you can expect a lifespan closer to 10 years. To extend your machine's life, service it annually, promptly fix minor issues, wash at lower temperatures, use slower spin cycles, and run full loads to reduce wear and energy consumption.
If your washing machine starts making loud noises during the spin cycle, like a rumbling or grinding sound, it's a strong sign that the bearings are worn out. You might also notice excessive movement of the inner drum during spinning, rather than smooth operation. These symptoms indicate it's time to replace the bearings with the help of a professional appliance repair technician.
A water inlet valve controls how much water flows into the tub, and it helps the tub fill up with water. If the valve fails, it can let too much water into the tub, overfilling the machine and causing leaks, or it won't let enough water in, leaving clothes unwashed. The water inlet valve is an essential component of your washing machine, so be sure to schedule a repair service if it shows signs of failure.
Front-loading washers can trap water in the door seal, leading to mold and mildew, which cause a musty odor. Follow these essential steps o prevent the smell:
Leave the door open after washing your clothes.
Remove wet clothes promptly when the cycle ends.
Use the proper amount of high-efficiency (HE) detergent.
When the belt in your washing machine breaks, the tub won't spin. Signs of a broken belt include a tub that doesn't spin during the cycle or clothes that are wetter than usual after spinning. If the belt is slipping but not fully broken, you might hear a squealing sound during spinning. Belts commonly wear out over time due to stretching or tearing from the intense forces during spin cycles.
Plumbers can fix plumbing issues related to your washing machine, like clogged drain pipes or faulty water supply lines. However, for mechanical or electrical problems with the machine itself—such as issues with the motor, drum, or electrical components—it's best to hire an appliance repair technician who specializes in washing machine repairs.
