Hi there,
Hope someone can help with my no end of problems with white goods – this time washing machine!
Basically, at the end of the cycle there is a big puddle of water surrounding my washing machinie.
I have pulled it away from the wall and from what I can tell it’s nothing to do with the waste pipe, hot/cold as the water was all around the machine and no where near the pipes attached to the wall.
Any suggestions? The machine is a few years old but I only just had it installed by someone I found on this site (my parents old one).
Thanks
Emma

It could possibly be a worn/torn door-seal.
Just open the door and check carefully.-often there are wrinkles in the folds and they chafe through eventually.
otherwise, I’d suspect the drain-hose UNDER the machine or pipework between the underside of the tank and the drain-pump.
If it’s an oldish machine and you’ve just moved it to a new house, it’s likely these will have been a bit more stressed than normal.
If you were happy with your installer, and don’t feel able to DIY, call him back to repair it. I don’t think it will be excessively expensive! (famous last words.)
