What Could be the Problem?
The Most Common Problems we see with Dishwashers
Damaged Spray Arms
A common problem we see with dishwashers is clogged or damaged spray arms. Over time, food particles and mineral build-up can block the spray arms, preventing them from distributing water properly. If your dishes aren’t coming out as clean as they should, this could be the issue.
Faulty Heating Element
Another frequent issue we encounter is a faulty heating element. If your dishwasher isn’t drying your dishes or the water isn’t getting hot enough during the wash cycle, the heating element may be broken. This can result in wet, unclean dishes that need a second wash.
Blocked Drainage
We often find that dishwashers fail to drain properly due to a blocked drainage system. Whether it’s a clogged drain hose or a malfunctioning drain pump, standing water at the bottom of your dishwasher is a clear sign that something is preventing proper drainage.
Damaged Door Seal
A worn or damaged door seal is another issue we regularly repair. If you notice water leaking from the door, it’s likely the seal has become compromised. A faulty seal can cause flooding, damage the dishwasher’s internal parts, and lead to more expensive repairs down the line.
FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the typical cost to repair a dishwasher?
The cost of repairing a dishwasher varies depending on the issue, but on average, repairs range from £50 to £200. Minor fixes like unclogging spray arms are more affordable, while replacing major components like the motor or control board may cost more.
Is it worth fixing a broken dishwasher?
In many cases, yes! If the repair costs are less than half the price of a new dishwasher and the unit is less than 10 years old, repairing it is often the most cost-effective option. Our team can help you determine if a repair is worthwhile.
Can dishwashers usually be repaired?
Yes, most dishwasher issues can be repaired, especially if caught early. Common problems like clogged drains, broken spray arms, or faulty seals are often straightforward to fix.
Do you service areas outside of Exeter?
We service all of Exeter and its surrounding areas within a 30 mile radius. Meaning we can also take call-outs to Exmouth, Torquay, Okehampton, Honiton, Tiverton, and Newton Abbot. For a small charge, we can also go further out but give us a call beforehand to let us know where you are!
How long should a dishwasher last?
With proper care and maintenance, a dishwasher should last between 9 and 12 years. High-quality brands and regular servicing can help extend this lifespan.
How long does a dishwasher repair take?
Most repairs can be completed within an hour or two. The exact time depends on the nature of the problem and whether any parts need to be replaced. Our team works efficiently to get your dryer up and running as quickly as possible.
Do you provide a warranty on your repairs?
All our repairs come with a warranty for your peace of mind. If the same issue occurs again within the warranty period, we’ll fix it at no extra cost.
Do you charge a call-out fee?
No, we don’t charge a call-out fee. You only pay for the repair work and any necessary parts – no hidden costs.
How quickly can you repair my dishwasher?
We aim to schedule repairs as soon as possible, often within 24–48 hours. For urgent cases, we also offer emergency repair services to get your dishwasher back in working order quickly.
