What changes the price?
The same symptom can have different causes
A dishwasher that “does not wash” can have drainage, circulation, heating or control causes, so diagnosis is important before comparing prices.
Pump type
Drain and circulation pumps have different prices and labour.
Heating / electronics
Heaters, sensors and control boards can increase parts cost.
Commercial unit
Commercial dishwashers are quoted according to machine and duty.
What you pay for
A proper diagnosis before parts are changed
We identify whether the problem is water in, water out, circulation, heating, sealing or control before quoting the repair.
- Fault assessment based on the actual symptom
- Explanation of the repair required
- Parts and labour requirements confirmed before the job proceeds
- Functional testing of the repaired system
- Clear advice when replacement may make more sense than a major repair
Our work
Repair work behind the price
Pricing depends on what we find inside the appliance or system. We work directly on the components, controls and cooling systems involved, then test the repaired function before the job is complete.
R
Repair or replace?
For an older machine with a major pump and electronic fault together, compare repair cost with the value and condition of the dishwasher.
Spend where it makes sense
Use the diagnosis to make the decision
Age alone does not decide whether a repair is worthwhile. We look at the failed component, overall condition, parts availability and the likely result of the repair before you decide.

How much does dishwasher repair cost in Durban?
Common jobs can range from R450 for basic drain work to R3,500+ for major controls or pump work.
Can you quote before opening the dishwasher?
We can give a guide from the symptom, but the final quote follows diagnosis because several faults can produce the same error or drainage problem.
