Dan came out to look at a faulty starter switch on my bosch microwave. He took it away and found a work around, by swapping over one of the other buttons , which saved me scrapping the old microwave. It is now back up and running, at a competitive price.

Dan was polite, professional and thorough in his repair to my freezer. Expected it to be more than it cost so was pleasantly surprised at the cost for the repair. Would highly recommend Dan and.... he covers repairs to all household appliances. He is on my go-to list.

Fixed my dishwasher! Dan arrived when he said and explained everything he needed to do to get me back up and running. Even though he didnโ€™t usually repair my brand of dishwasher he left me with a working appliance. He offered good advice and was friendly and tidy. A great service and excellent value.I will definitely recommend Swift Appliance Repair and use again if needed. Many thanks Dan!

FAQ

Most frequently asked questions regarding Dishwasher repair

Whether itโ€™s worth repairing a dishwasher often depends on several factors:

 

  • Age of the Dishwasher: โ€œIf your dishwasher is older and nearing the end of its expected lifespan (usually around 10 years), replacing it might be more cost-effective.โ€

  • Cost of Repair: โ€œIf the repair cost exceeds more than half the price of a new dishwasher, investing in a new one is generally recommended.โ€

  • Problem: โ€œMinor issues, such as not draining or water not heating, can usually be repaired easily. However, if the dishwasher has a major fault, like needing a new motor, the repair might not be worth the expense.โ€

  • Efficiency: โ€œNewer models are more energy and water-efficient. If your current dishwasher is an older, less efficient model, upgrading could save you money over the long run.โ€

In summary, consider the dishwasherโ€™s age, repair cost, efficiency, and the extent of the problem before deciding whether to repair or replace it. We will always try to offer you our best advice.

The average dishwasher repair cost can vary depending on several factors, such as the nature of the fault and the cost of replacement parts, if needed. Generally, you can expect to pay between ยฃ65 to ยฃ100 for common repairs.

The majority of dishwasher faults are normally caused by blockages or broken wires, so it may only cost the call-out and labour charge agreed upon before your visit. More complex faults or repairs that require expensive parts will cost more.

At Swift Appliance Repair, we will always explain exactly what our charges are and never replace parts without the customer giving the go ahead with full knowledge of cost.

If your dishwasher isnโ€™t cleaning properly, it could be due to several reasons:

    • Blocked Spray Arms: โ€œFood particles or debris can block the holes in the spray arms, preventing the water from circulating properly.โ€
    • Overloading: โ€œOverloading the dishwasher can obstruct the spray arms and stop them from turning. My advice is, when youโ€™ve finished loading the baskets, push them into place and give the spray arms a spin; they should turn freely.โ€
    • Dirty Filters: โ€œDishwashers have filters to stop food and other objects from jamming the motor & drain pump. If these become clogged, it can affect cleaning quality. Occasionally take them out and wash them in warm water.โ€
    • Faulty Wash Motor: โ€œThe motor ensures water circulates through the machine; if itโ€™s faulty or blocked, dishes wonโ€™t get cleaned properly.โ€
    • Low Water Temperature: โ€œIf the water isnโ€™t heating up enough, it can affect cleaning results. Try using a longer program. I recommend normal & auto cycles for daily use and intensive for heavily soiled items. Quick washes are only recommended for very lightly soiled items. If you find the dishwasher isnโ€™t getting hot at all, itโ€™s time to call in the experts.โ€

Regular maintenance and addressing these common issues can help improve your dishwasherโ€™s cleaning performance. Also remember, itโ€™s a dishwasher, not a waste disposal, at least put the bones & chunky bits in the bin!

If your dishwasher isnโ€™t drying properly, it could be due to several factors:

  • Check Rinse Aid: โ€œRinse aid helps water evaporate from dishes. If your dishwasher is out of rinse aid or itโ€™s not dispensing properly, dishes may not dry properly.โ€
  • Heating Issues: โ€œMost dishwashers use residual heat to help dry the dishes. If the heating element is faulty or not working as it should, the dishes wonโ€™t dry properly.โ€
  • Plastic Items: โ€œIf itโ€™s plastic, it wonโ€™t dry (unless your dishwasher is really fancy!).โ€
  • Wrong Cycle Selected: โ€œSome dishwasher cycles donโ€™t have a drying phase at the end, especially quick washes and rinses. Check the manual to make sure.โ€
  • Leaving the Door Closed for Too Long: โ€œProbably the most common reason for not drying properly is running the dishwasher in the evening and leaving the door closed until the morning. All that residual heat (steam) used to dry the dishes has gone cold and condensed back to water. My advice is, when the cycle has finished, wait about 10 minutes, open the door to get a nice steamy facial, pull the top basket out a bit (this stops the door from closing), and leave everything to finish drying.โ€

Addressing these issues can help improve the drying performance of your dishwasher. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning the filters and ensuring the rinse aid dispenser is full, can also help.
