How much does it cost to repair a washing machine?
The cost of repairs depends on the cause of the problem and the severity of the fault. In the case of minor defects, the costs vary between 200 and 700 francs. With major problems, the costs can reach 700 to 1,300 francs. Our goal is to offer our customers the best possible service. We understand that a broken machine causes great frustration. That is why we work hard to make the repair process as straightforward and stress-free as possible. Our experienced and competent technicians are happy to advise you and prepare an offer. Repairs are only carried out once the owner has placed the order.

When is repairing a washing machine worthwhile?
It is usually always best to repair a washing machine. The availability of replacement parts is particularly important. Typically, most manufacturers guarantee the availability of replacement parts for up to 12 years.
-
Can washing machines be repaired without the help of an expert?
In principle, yes. However, if the machine still has a warranty, this may be invalidated once a layperson performs repairs. It is also important to note that working on electronic components requires training in the electrical field (connection qualification according to Art. 15 NIV). But you can carry out minor repairs, such as replacing the filter, lint filter or sump without any issues. You can conveniently order the necessary original replacement parts for machines from most manufacturers online using the contact form on our website.

How can I tell when the washing machine is broken?
Generally, modern washing machines are monitored electronically. This means an error code is issued if a defect occurs. Most causes and error codes are listed at the back of the user manual of the appliance. These explanations help you determine whether a technician should be contacted or if the error can be fixed independently.
