What the repair includes
- Diagnosis to confirm the failed part before ordering
- Removal of the inner and outer boot clamps
- Boot replacement and drain-hole check
- Fill and tumble leak test
Why the price varies
- Boot part cost for the model
- Whether the front panel must come off
- Bent or rusted clamps that also need replacing
When this repair makes sense
- The boot is torn or deformed and the washer is otherwise good
When replacement may be the better choice
- Rarely by itself; consider the washer's overall condition if bearings also show wear
Signs the door boot may not be the problem
- A leak at the door can be oversudsing from too much or non-HE detergent rather than a torn boot.
- Mildew on the boot causes odor but is cleaning and airing, not a failed seal.
- A dispenser hose leak drips at the front and is mistaken for the boot.
- A foreign object caught in a boot fold can hold the door slightly open and leak.
