The part is the third question

Generation, then access, then the component

Which platform the machine is on decides the part number and sometimes whether the number on its display means anything at all. How it is fitted into the room decides the hour. Only after both does the component itself get priced, and on an integrated machine it is frequently the cheapest item of the afternoon.

Where the European channel shows up

A lead time is not a surcharge

Dishwashers, washers and dryers are supported in the United States and their parts are ordinary. Ovens, hobs, hoods and refrigeration are not in the catalog here at all, so those components travel.

On this site that shows in exactly one published figure — the control board — and in no labor rate. Charging more for the work because the part came further would be charging twice for one fact.

Before you book

What we need to quote accurately

The machine

  • Model code, which on this make changes the part before it changes the job.
  • Whether it is integrated, freestanding or on a terrace.

The job

  • What the machine does, and when in the cycle.
  • Whether anybody has already worked on it.

Or start from the job

By what needs doing

Each service page carries its own figure too.

  • A technician kneeling beside a tall integrated refrigerator in a dark kitchen, writing on a clipboard, a multimeter resting on the floor beside an open tool roll.

    Diagnostic visit

    Establishing what is actually wrong with the machine, ahead of naming or costing a part. Here one thing has to be settled before the complaint can even be read: which generation is standing in the kitchen. Digits on this badge belong to whichever board prints them, so a dishwasher, washer or dryer measured against the wrong table produces a confident answer and an incorrect part. You keep the charge against the repair when the work goes ahead; where our view is that spending money on this machine makes no sense, that view is what you have paid for and the amount stays the same.

    • Generation before symptom — it settles which table the digits belong to
    • The number is written down before the work, and it comes off the repair
    • Where mending makes no sense we say it, instead of finding a part to sell
    What this involves
  • Five washer control panels of different generations photographed side by side on a workshop wall board — a numeric display, a row of numbered indicator lights, a row of plain lights, an E-number display and a blank text strip — nothing legible on any of them.

    Platform identification

    The job this make needs and no other make on our list does. Three dishwasher generations, five washer code families, dryer schemes that change with the control board and two induction families that share no numbers — and from the front of the kitchen they are indistinguishable. This is the visit that settles which machine is actually in the run, records it, and gives you a code table that applies to your appliance instead of to the badge in general. For anyone who intends to keep the machine another decade it is the cheapest useful thing we sell.

    • Which generation, which board, which code table — established and written down
    • Turns every future number on the display into something readable
    • Credited in full against a repair if it is booked in the same visit
    What this involves
  • A pump filter, a dishwasher salt pack, a condenser block and a coil brush laid out together on a folded white towel on the worktop of a tiled laundry closet.
    from $155

    Appliance maintenance

    A planned visit rather than a rescue, and on this make it pays for itself faster than on most. These are machines built to run for twenty years, which means the things that end them early are almost all maintenance items — a condenser filter packed solid in a laundry closet at eighty per cent humidity, a dishwasher filter stack nobody knew lifted out, a door seal cutting itself on grit. Every one of those is minutes of work and none of them announce themselves before they cost a part.

    • Filters, seals, drains and airflow — the four that end machines early here
    • One visit covers every Asko appliance in the property, not one machine
    • Written record of what was found, so the next visit is not a fresh start
    What this involves
  • Two hands leveling the front foot of a white appliance with a wrench, a spirit level lying on top of the machine, pale tile floor, bright room.
    from $185

    Appliance installation

    Fitting a machine into a space that was drawn for another one, which in this county is most installations. On integrated equipment the appliance is the easy half: the panel, the scribe, the toe kick, the services behind and the air the machine needs to breathe are the work. We measure the opening before anything is ordered, because an integrated cabinet that does not fit is not a delivery problem, it is a joinery problem, and it is far cheaper to find out on a Tuesday with a tape measure.

    • The opening measured before anything is ordered, not after it arrives
    • Panel, scribe and toe kick treated as part of the job, not as somebody else's
    • Air path checked and recorded — a boxed-in machine fails whatever is fitted
    What this involves
  • An appliance control board held in two gloved hands over a workbench, its plain green surface and relays visible, no markings legible
    from $285

    Control board repair

    The repair where being honest about the supply chain matters more than being quick. Boards on this make come through a European channel, and on a machine that is no longer in the US catalog that is a real wait rather than a phrase. So the order here is fixed: prove the board is the problem, price the part with its lead time attached, and only then decide. A board fitted to cure a supply problem or a water-ingress problem will fail the same way in a season, and we would rather find the water.

    • Proven, not assumed — the board is the last suspect, never the first
    • Lead time is quoted with the price, because on this make it is part of the answer
    • Water ingress and supply errors found first, or the new board follows the old one
    What this involves
  • The three-piece filter stack lifted out of the floor of a dishwasher tub and standing apart on a cloth, the empty sump well and the drain pump impeller visible in the tub behind.
    from $165

    Dishwasher drain and pump repair

    A pool left in the sump when the program ends — which this make announces in three unrelated ways, depending on the generation. The current display machines print it as a printed code; the legacy boards blink it through the program lights; the Outdoor door prints its own string that belongs to neither table. Underneath all three the machine is the same: a filter stack, a drain pump, a hose and an air gap, and the water has stopped at one of them.

    • Filter stack first — it is free, and it ends this call more often than a pump does
    • Drain hose and the air gap at the sink, which are somebody else's install
    • The pump proved on a meter before it is replaced, not diagnosed by elimination
    What this involves
  • A shallow base tray drawn out from under a panel-ready dishwasher with a float switch sitting in an inch of water, a folded towel on the tiled floor in front of it.
    from $159

    Dishwasher leak repair

    Water on the floor of a kitchen where the machine is behind a custom panel, which means the leak has been running longer than anybody realized — it tracks along the frame and appears at the toe kick rather than where it started. On integrated machines the order of work is not optional: the panel comes off, the machine comes forward, and only then can anybody honestly say where the water is from. Guessing at it from the front is how a door seal gets replaced on a machine leaking at the sump.

    • The panel off and the machine out — a leak is not diagnosed from the front
    • Door seal, sump, hose unions and the inlet, in that order of likelihood
    • Cabinet floor and joinery checked for what the water has already reached
    What this involves
  • An aquastop inlet hose unscrewed from the back of a dishwasher and held clear, its solenoid head in a gloved hand, the tap behind it closed.
    from $155

    Dishwasher water inlet repair

    The machine will not fill, fills too slowly, or fills when it should not — three complaints with one circuit behind them. On the current generation this is the family of codes around water inlet and inlet valve leakage; on the legacy boards it is a blink pattern for a pulse count never reached; and on both the first suspect is outside the machine altogether, at a service valve under the sink that somebody closed most of the way during other work.

    • The service valve under the sink before the machine, every time
    • Inlet valve, flow meter and the hose screen, which is a five-minute clean
    • A valve that leaks when off is a different problem from one that will not open
    What this involves
  • The lower spray arm of a dishwasher unclipped and lifted a few inches clear of its hub by two hands, the fine mesh screen already lying on a cloth on the open door beside it, the empty sump visible below.
    from $139

    Dishwasher wash performance service

    Everything runs, nothing errors, and the dishes come out gritty or filmed. This is the call with no code behind it on any of the three generations, and it is nearly always four ordinary things rather than one broken one: spray arms whose jets have limed shut, a filter that has been rinsed but never lifted, a water hardness setting nobody adjusted when the machine arrived on this supply, and a detergent dose meant for softer water than we have.

    • No code, no failure — this is a performance call and it is priced as one
    • Spray arms, filter, hardness setting and dose, which is the whole list
    • Water hardness set to this supply, not to the number it left the factory with
    What this involves
  • The latch at the top of a dishwasher door and the strike it closes into, the door held an inch open so both halves read.
    from $135

    Dishwasher door and latch repair

    A door that has to be pushed to start, drops open on its own, or will not release at the end of a program. On integrated machines this is more often the panel than the appliance: a custom door adds weight the springs were tensioned for at installation, and joinery settles. So the springs get set to the door that is actually hanging there rather than to a factory figure, and the latch and its switch are checked as the pair they are.

    • Springs tensioned to the panel that is actually on the machine
    • Latch and door switch treated as one circuit, because that is how they fail
    • Hinge wear on integrated doors, which carries more weight than a plain one
    What this involves
  • The flow-through heater block unclipped from the underside of a dishwasher with the machine tipped back on a blanket, its two hose stubs and terminals showing.
    from $155

    Dishwasher heating and drying repair

    Dishes coming out wet, or a program that runs cold and takes forever. On this make the two are one circuit and the diagnosis splits early: a heater that has failed outright shows in the water temperature and, on the newer boards, in a heating code; a machine that heats correctly but dries badly is a condensing and airflow question and the heater is innocent. The turbo drying models add a fan to that list, and it is a separate part with a separate failure.

    • Heating and drying separated before anything is priced
    • Heater, thermistor and the control that decides between them
    • On turbo drying models the fan is its own part and its own repair
    What this involves
  • A stainless outdoor dishwasher built into a masonry summer-kitchen run on a terrace, its door open, salt haze dulling the panel and a hose coiled on the tile beside it.
    from $195

    Outdoor dishwasher service

    The terrace machine, and on this coast it is a different appliance from the same model indoors. It has its own service scheme — written with a colon, and clashing with the indoor generation's numbers — its own stainless specification and its own door seal part. What actually ends these is not the electronics but the environment: salt at the hinges and fasteners, rain finding the top edge of a cabinet that never dries, and a machine asked to work at outdoor humidity for eleven months a year.

    • Its own code scheme, which clashes with the indoor machines' numbers
    • Salt at hinges, fasteners and the door seal — the real failure path here
    • Cabinet drainage and the top edge, which is usually the joinery's problem
    What this involves
  • An open front-loading washing machine door with wet clothes sitting in a drum still holding water, a towel on the floor in front of it, the small pump filter access panel open at the bottom right.
    from $155

    Washer not draining repair

    A drum still holding water when the program ends, with the machine declining to spin for it — that refusal is by design rather than a second failure. Which label it arrives under depends entirely on the panel: the display machines print a number, the numbered-LED machines show a short code from a different family, the analog ones signal with lights, and the premium panels print a sentence. All four are describing the same short path from sump to standpipe.

    • Pump filter behind the lower panel first — free, and often the whole answer
    • The refusal to spin is the machine protecting itself, not a second problem
    • Standpipe height and the wall connection, which are usually not the machine
    What this involves
  • A washer drive belt lifted off the motor pulley and hanging on a gloved finger, the large drum pulley and the empty motor shaft behind it, the rear panel off.
    from $165

    Washer not spinning repair

    A load that comes out soaked after a cycle that appeared to finish. Before anything is priced, three free things are eliminated because they account for most of these: the machine has not drained, the load will not balance, or a cycle was chosen with no spin in it. What is left is genuinely mechanical — the motor and its control, the belt where fitted, the door lock the machine will not spin without, or the shock absorbers that let the drum move enough for the balance sensor to give up.

    • Drain, balance and program eliminated before anything mechanical is opened
    • The door lock is a spin interlock — a worn one stops the machine dead
    • Shock absorbers and suspension, which fail slowly and look like electronics
    What this involves
  • Gloved fingers pulling open the fold at the bottom of a front-load washer door gasket, a cloth in the other hand
    from $175

    Washer door seal replacement

    The single most common part we replace on this make, and the one where waiting costs the most. Grit collects in the bottom fold of the bellows, works into the rubber and cuts it from the inside, so the seal is usually failing for months before water reaches the floor. In a condominium that matters more than the part does: water from a laundry closet reaches the slab and then somebody else's ceiling, and a seal is a fraction of what that costs to put right.

    • Grit in the bottom fold is the cause — the seal is the symptom
    • Caught early it is a part; caught late it is a floor slab and a neighbor
    • Clamp and drain path renewed with it, or the new seal goes the same way
    What this involves
  • A washer outer tub split into its two halves on a workshop bench with the drum and shaft lying between them, the failed bearing race visible in the rear half.
    from $395

    Washer drum bearing replacement

    The big job, and the one where we say plainly whether it is worth doing. A bearing going is a rumble on spin that grows over months and eventually a drum that can be moved by hand. On most makes at this age the answer is to replace the machine; on a steel-framed Asko it frequently is not, because everything around the bearing is still sound. The figure here is honest about the labor: this is a strip-down, and it takes the day.

    • A day's strip-down, priced as one rather than discovered halfway
    • Worth doing on this make more often than on most — and we say when it is not
    • Seal, shocks and springs renewed with it, because they are already out
    What this involves
  • A suspension damper unbolted from the outer tub of a washing machine and held clear of its bracket, the machine on its side on a blanket.
    from $165

    Washer shock absorber service

    The repair that prevents the previous one. Shock absorbers wear gradually, and as they go the drum is allowed to move further on every spin — which loads the bearing, unbalances the machine and eventually walks it across the floor. Nothing on the panel reports it. What reports it is the noise and the movement, and a machine caught at this stage is hundreds of dollars cheaper than the same machine six months later.

    • Nothing on the display reports this — the machine tells you by moving
    • Replaced as a set, because one new absorber against three worn ones is worse
    • The cheapest way to protect a drum bearing on these machines
    What this involves
  • The heating element withdrawn from its port under the drum at the back of a washer, its clamp nut loosened and its two terminals visible, the rear panel leaning against the wall.
    from $159

    Washer heater and thermostat repair

    Cold washes on a program that should be hot, or cycles that run far past their stated time. The machine will not move on until the water reaches temperature, so a heating problem shows up as a clock problem first and people rarely connect the two. On the display generations this arrives with a code; on the analog machines it arrives as a wash that took four hours. The element itself is a straightforward part — the thermistor in front of it is the one that fools people.

    • A cycle that never ends is usually a heating problem, not a timer problem
    • Thermistor before element: a wrong reading makes a good element look dead
    • Scale on this water shortens element life, and we say so at the visit
    What this involves
  • A washer pulled out with its upper rear panel off, the inlet valve on its bracket with both braided hoses
    from $135

    Washer inlet and hose service

    Nothing about this visit is interesting, and it heads off the costliest thing that can happen in a laundry closet. Inlet hoses perish, valves stick part-open, and screens silt up on this supply. A machine that fills slowly is an annoyance; a hose that lets go while nobody is home is a claim on a building. On any machine over five years old in a condominium we recommend the hoses replaced whether or not that is what we were called for, and we say why rather than adding it to an invoice.

    • Perished hoses are a building's risk, not just a machine's
    • Inlet screens silt up on this water and are a five-minute clean
    • A valve that seeps while off is a different failure from one that will not open
    What this involves
  • The condenser block drawn out of the plinth at the foot of a heat-pump dryer and standing on the tiles, its fins packed gray with lint, the empty bay behind it.
    from $155

    Dryer not drying repair

    A program that finishes with the load still damp, which on a condenser or heat pump machine is almost never about heat. Nothing is vented outside: moisture is condensed and collected, so the machine depends on three filters and a condenser being clear, and in a South Florida laundry closet those load far faster than the manual assumes. Three of the checks cost nothing and end this call more often than any part does.

    • Container, door filter, condenser filter — three free checks, in that order
    • This is airflow before heat on every condenser and heat pump machine
    • The sensor bars only matter once the air path is proved clear
    What this involves
  • The back of a dryer open on the bench: compressor, finned heat exchanger, copper tubing and the blower housing, a blue charging hose on a brass fitting.
    from $145

    Condenser dryer service

    The maintenance visit these machines need on a schedule and rarely get. A condenser dryer works by pulling moisture out of air and giving the heat back, and it is being asked to do that in a closet that may sit at eighty per cent humidity for half the year. Nothing about that is a failure — it is a shorter interval. The machines that reach fifteen years here are the ones where somebody cleared the condenser twice a year instead of waiting for a cycle that never ended.

    • A schedule, not a rescue — and the interval here is shorter than the manual's
    • Condenser block washed out properly rather than tapped clear
    • Cycle times recorded, so the next visit can see whether it is drifting
    What this involves
  • The rear of a heat-pump dryer open on a workshop bench showing the compressor, the finned evaporator and the blower housing, a wire loom lifted clear on a hook.
    from $215

    Heat pump dryer repair

    The newest platform here and the one with its own economics. A heat pump dryer is a sealed refrigeration circuit as well as a dryer, which makes it cheaper to run and more expensive to be wrong about: a compressor is not a heating element. So the order of work is strict — everything ordinary is eliminated first, and only then does the sealed side become the answer. These machines report in their own scheme, spelling out ERROR and a digit rather than using the older short codes.

    • Sealed circuit last, always — the ordinary causes look identical from outside
    • Its own code scheme: ERROR_0 to ERROR_5, not the older L or F numbers
    • The evaporator behind the plinth needs clearing, and almost nobody knows it is there
    What this involves
  • Drum rollers and the belt off a dryer.
    from $165

    Dryer drum, belt and roller repair

    A drum that has stopped turning, or turns while rumbling or squealing worse each week. Nine times in ten the belt is the answer and it is an easy part; what matters is the reason the belt went is the part worth finding, because a seized roller or a tired idler will eat the next one just as fast. On a machine that has spent a decade in a hot closet the bearings and felts are usually ready too, and doing them together saves the second visit.

    • The belt is the symptom — the roller or idler that killed it is the repair
    • Rollers, idler and felts checked as a set while the machine is open
    • A squeal that has been growing is a bearing, and it will not improve
    What this involves
  • Two metal moisture-sensor strips inside the drum opening of a dryer being wiped with a pad, the drum lit from inside.
    from $149

    Dryer sensor and thermostat service

    Cycles that stop after ten minutes with a dry load, or cycles that run hot and long with a damp one — both are the machine believing something untrue about the laundry. The moisture sensor bars inside the drum read conductivity, and softener residue films them over until they report a dry load every time. Where a thermostat is to blame the machine usually says so in whichever code family its board belongs to, and reading it against the right family is half of the diagnosis.

    • Sensor bars filmed with softener residue are the commonest cause by far
    • The code family depends on the control board, and we identify it first
    • A cycle that ends too early is the same circuit as one that never ends
    What this involves
  • A dryer's lint screen lifted clear of its slot and standing to one side, the housing below it visibly packed with gray lint, and a flexible foil duct crushed flat where the machine has been pushed back to the wall.
    from $119

    Dryer lint and airflow service

    The cheapest visit on this list and the one we would most like people to book. Lint that gets past a filter collects inside the cabinet, around the fan and against the heat exchanger, where it lengthens every cycle, raises the running temperature and — on any dryer, of any make — is what turns an appliance into a fire. There is no code for it and no warning light. There is only a machine that takes longer than it used to, which everybody puts down to age.

    • No code, no light — the only symptom is a cycle that has quietly got longer
    • Lint inside the cabinet, not in the filter, is what matters here
    • Booked with the washer service, it is one visit for the whole laundry closet
    What this involves
  • The base grille of a refrigerator removed and leaning against the cabinet, a coil brush and a vacuum nozzle worked in among the black condenser fins behind it, a grey mat of dust drawn out onto near-black tile.
    from $185

    Refrigerator not cooling repair

    A complaint that arrives without a code, since refrigeration on this badge publishes none — its manuals stop at symptom, cause and remedy. Everything is therefore read off behavior: which compartment has gone wrong, whether the compressor is running, the position of the frost, and how much heat the back of the cabinet is giving off. First of all, though, the grille. Dust packed into the condenser of an integrated cabinet imitates a failing compressor exactly, on a machine with nothing whatever wrong with it.

    • No published code exists for this — its absence tells you nothing
    • The grille and the condenser before the sealed system, every time
    • Which compartment is wrong is the diagnosis, not the complaint
    What this involves
  • A tall integrated refrigerator column eased forward out of its joinery onto a protective mat, its oak cabinet panel and handle laid on a folded blanket beside it, shims at the base.
    from $185

    Integrated column access

    A service of its own on this make, because almost every cabinet here is flush in joinery that was drawn around it. Getting to the machine means the door panel, the handle, the trim and sometimes a fixed plinth, and doing that without marking a cabinet run is a skill rather than a step. It is quoted separately so nobody is surprised: on an integrated column the getting-in is frequently longer than the repair, and pretending otherwise makes every estimate wrong.

    • Priced separately because it is genuinely the longer half of the visit
    • Panels, handles and trim removed and refitted without marking the run
    • The air gap the fitter left is recorded, because it explains repeat failures
    What this involves
  • The evaporator behind an opened freezer panel — the first thing opened on a warm refrigerator.
    from $175

    Defrost system repair

    Ice building where air should move — on the back wall of a compartment, around a fan, or as a slab under a drawer. The circuit is small and predictable: a heater, a sensor, a control and a drain path, and which of the four it is can usually be told from how fast the ice comes back after it is cleared. That question is worth asking before the visit, because it changes what we bring.

    • How quickly the ice returns after clearing tells us which part it is
    • Heater, sensor, control and drain — a short list, worked through in order
    • A door left ajar produces identical ice and is not a repair
    What this involves
  • A magnetic door gasket pulled back out of its channel along one edge of an open integrated refrigerator door, the empty channel and the retaining lip visible.
    from $165

    Refrigerator door seal replacement

    A seal that has taken a set, or one cut where the door has dropped, and in this climate it costs more than it looks. Every hour of eighty-per-cent air leaking into a cabinet is moisture the defrost circuit then has to deal with, so a tired gasket shows up as ice, long run times and a compressor that never stops long before anybody notices the rubber. On integrated doors the extra weight of a custom panel is usually what pulled the door out of true in the first place.

    • A leaking seal shows as ice and long running before it shows as a draft
    • On integrated doors the panel's weight is usually the real cause
    • Hinge and alignment corrected with it, or the new seal sets the same way
    What this involves
  • A slim probe lead resting among the bottles on a wooden rack inside an open wine cabinet, a data logger standing on the counter beside it.
    from $175

    Wine cabinet service

    The one refrigeration product still in this make's US catalog, and a different machine from a refrigerator in every way that matters to its owner. It is asked to hold a narrow band rather than a low temperature, to do it without vibration, and to do it while built into a run where its exhaust has nowhere obliging to go. Its usual complaint is not failure but drift, and drift is measured over days rather than diagnosed in an afternoon.

    • Drift, not failure — measured over days with a logger rather than guessed
    • Vibration is a specification here, so a fan bearing is a real problem
    • Exhaust path in the joinery, which is what most drift comes down to
    What this involves
  • The rear liner panel unscrewed inside an integrated freezer column and lifted out, the evaporator plate and the defrost heater loop behind it, ice cleared from the tray.
    from $185

    Freezer not freezing repair

    A cabinet running constantly and still soft inside, and in this county that has to be separated from a cabinet losing an argument with the room around it. A freezer in an unconditioned garage or utility room in August is being asked to work far outside what it was specified for; it may be perfectly healthy and simply losing. Telling that apart from a real failure is most of this visit, and there is no code on this make to help — the manuals carry problem, cause and solution rows and nothing else.

    • Start with the room — an unconditioned space in August changes the machine
    • Frost pattern is the reading — where it forms says which of four things it is
    • No published codes on this make, so behavior is the whole diagnosis
    What this involves
  • A gloved hand feeding a slim flexible tube into a small drain hole at the back of a freezer compartment, ice cleared away around it.
    from $139

    Freezer drain and ice service

    Ice under the drawers, water on the joinery floor, or a drawer that has frozen into its runners — three complaints with one blocked channel behind them. It is among the few things genuinely worth trying yourself first, and we say so: warm water down the drain channel at the back of the compartment clears most of them. What brings us out is the one that comes back, because that is the drain heater or the path itself rather than debris.

    • Worth trying yourself first, and we will say how rather than sell a visit
    • The one that comes back within a week is the heater, not the blockage
    • On integrated cabinets the water reaches the joinery before you see it inside
    What this involves
  • A fan oven element unbolted from the rear wall of an oven cavity and drawn forward on its leads in a gloved hand, the circular fan cover behind it.
    from $175

    Oven not heating repair

    A cavity that never warms up, or one where some functions heat and others do not — and on make the display will not help. When these stop they show ErrXX and no published document decodes those digits: three separate manuals say only to disconnect, reconnect and call somebody. So the work is conventional and thorough. Which functions still work is the most useful thing anybody can tell us on the phone, because a grill that heats while the bake element does not has already halved the diagnosis.

    • ErrXX is undecoded in every published manual — the digits are for a service tool
    • Which functions still work is the single most useful thing to tell us
    • Element, thermostat, thermal cut-out and the board, tested in that order
    What this involves
  • A thermocouple probe laid on the center shelf of an empty oven with its lead run out past the door seal to a hand-held meter standing on the worktop.
    from $149

    Oven temperature calibration

    Everything works and nothing is right — cakes pale, roasts overdone, a machine that has drifted rather than broken. On a European oven fitted into an American kitchen this comes up more than it should, and it splits into two quite different things: an oven whose sensor now reads a few degrees out, and an oven perfectly accurate at its own sensor while being wildly uneven inside. The second is airflow or a door seal, and no amount of calibration fixes it.

    • Accuracy and evenness are different problems with different repairs
    • Measured with an independent probe at several points, not at one
    • A door seal that has set is the commonest cause of uneven, not the sensor
    What this involves
  • The water reservoir of a steam oven drawn out of its housing behind the control panel and standing on a cloth, a descaling sachet beside it.
    from $175

    Steam oven water system service

    The combi-steam cavities need a service the plain ovens do not, and on this water they need it more often than the manual suggests. Scale forms in the generator, the level sensor reads through it, and the machine starts refusing steam programs or leaving water standing in the cavity overnight. Descaling is genuinely the first thing to try and we will tell you how rather than charge for it; what brings us out is the machine that refuses after a proper descale.

    • Descale first — we will say how, rather than sell a visit for it
    • Standing water the next morning is a drain path or a level sensor
    • This supply scales a generator faster than the service interval assumes
    What this involves
  • An oven door off and lying on a blanket with its hinges locked open
    from $169

    Oven door and hinge repair

    A door that will not close on its seal, sags at one corner, or has lost the glass panel between its layers. It is worth taking seriously beyond the annoyance: a door that does not seal changes every temperature in the cavity and puts heat into the cabinet around it, which is a joinery problem waiting to happen in a tall run. Hinges on these are sprung and under tension, and taking them apart without releasing them properly is how people get hurt.

    • A door that will not seal changes cooking and heats the cabinetry around it
    • Sprung hinges under tension — released properly, not levered
    • Inner glass and seal renewed together, because they wear from the same heat
    What this involves
  • Looking into an open oven at a tray of part-baked pastries with the bake element visible at the back
    from $165

    Oven element replacement

    The straightforward half of an oven that has stopped heating, and the honest thing to say about it here is the timing. The part itself is ordinary; the supply channel is European, so the answer to when depends on the model rather than on the day of the week. We say that at the diagnostic and not afterwards. Where an element has failed early, the reason is worth finding too — a thermostat holding the oven above its setting will take the next one just as quickly.

    • The part is ordinary; the lead time is the part of the answer that varies
    • An element that failed early was killed by something, usually a thermostat
    • Terminals and the harness renewed with it where heat has reached them
    What this involves
  • A black glass induction top lifted off its cut-out and turned over on a padded bench to show four coil assemblies and the control board underneath.

    Induction cooktop repair

    The majority of what this make put into kitchens here, and the codes divide into two families that share no numbers at all: one generation prints F-strings, the other prints E and Er strings, and reading one against the other's table is how the wrong board gets ordered. Two free checks come before any of that, because they account for a good share of these calls: whether the pan is actually induction-capable, and whether the hob has been left in a lock or child-safety state that looks identical to a failure.

    • Two code families, no shared numbers — the model settles which table applies
    • Pan and lock state checked first, because both mimic a dead hob exactly
    • Overheating from a blocked air path under the counter, which is common here
    What this involves
  • One induction coil unscrewed from the underside of a cooktop and lifted an inch clear on its litz wiring, its ferrite bars and the thermistor visible.
    from $189

    Induction zone and coil repair

    One zone dead while the others work, which on induction is better news than it sounds: the problem is usually local to that zone's coil or to its section of the board, and the supply and the main control are out of it. What we check before opening anything is the pair of things that produce an identical symptom for nothing — the pan, and a bridged or linked zone setting that has moved a zone's power somewhere else without anybody meaning to.

    • One dead zone implicates its own coil, not the hob's supply
    • Bridge and link settings can move power silently and look like a failure
    • Glass lifted only after the electrical reading says it has to be
    What this involves
  • A frying pan on a dark induction surface in low kitchen light
    from $275

    Cooktop glass replacement

    A cracked or shattered induction top, which is not a cosmetic repair and should not be treated as one. A crack lets moisture down onto the coils and the board beneath, and the failure that follows is electrical. The right first action is to stop using it and isolate it at the breaker. Whether it is worth replacing depends on the model and on what has already got through, and on a hob no longer in the US catalog it depends on the glass still being available — which we check before quoting.

    • Stop using it and isolate at the breaker — this is not cosmetic
    • Availability checked before a figure is quoted, not after it is accepted
    • What the crack has already let through decides whether glass alone is enough
    What this involves
  • A spark electrode unclipped from beside a surface burner and lifted an inch clear on its lead, the burner cap and ring lying to one side on the cooktop glass.
    from $155

    Gas hob burner and igniter repair

    The simpler call on this make and not the lesser one: gas hobs here publish no codes at all, so the diagnosis is flame, spark and gas train, done by observation and measurement. A burner that clicks and will not light, one that lights and drops out, and one that burns yellow are three different problems, and which it is can usually be told before we arrive. Anything involving gas is left safe rather than merely working, and we say plainly when something is outside our trade.

    • No codes on gas here — flame, spark and gas train, measured
    • Clicking, dropping out and burning yellow are three separate problems
    • Left safe rather than merely working, and we say when it is not our trade
    What this involves
  • The terminal block behind the lower back panel of a freestanding range with its cover plate off, the supply cable clamped in and the link bars across the terminals.
    from $215

    Imported range service

    The Scandinavian cookers that were never sold here, brought over by somebody who moved or specified by a designer who knew the line. Servicing them is ordinary work with two unusual questions attached, and both are settled before anything else: what supply the machine is actually running on, and whether the parts it needs have a route. A repair fitted onto a wiring problem does not hold, and a diagnosis that ends in an unobtainable part helps nobody if it arrives after the invoice.

    • Supply checked first — a transformer or a rewired plug fakes many errors
    • Parts route and lead time established before the work is agreed
    • No code tables exist for these: the manuals are symptom, cause and remedy
    What this involves
  • A capillary thermostat phial unclipped from its bracket inside an oven cavity and drawn out on its thin copper line, the bulb held in gloved fingers.
    from $175

    Range element and thermostat repair

    Ovens and hotplates on the imported cookers, where the mechanics are familiar and the supply is not. Elements, thermostats and switches on these are conventional parts that do conventional things; what differs is that they come from Europe and that a machine wired for a European supply may be running them outside their design. We measure the supply before we condemn a component, because a thermostat that looks lazy on a low voltage is a thermostat somebody paid for twice.

    • Supply measured before any component is condemned
    • Elements, thermostats and switches are ordinary parts on an unusual route
    • Salt reaches trim and fasteners here long before it reaches an element
    What this involves
  • The side cover of a built-in combination microwave removed on a bench, a discharge tool resting across the capacitor terminals, the magnetron block beside it.
    from $195

    Built-in microwave repair

    The combination cavities — microwave and convection in one built-in oven — which are the only form this badge takes here. Like the ovens they report ERROR and two digits that no published manual decodes, so the useful split is done at the appliance and it is quick: if convection heats and microwave does not, the magnetron circuit and the door interlocks are the place to look; if neither does, the supply and the main board come first. A cup of water for a minute settles that before anybody drives over.

    • ERROR XX is undecoded in four manuals — the split is made at the appliance
    • Convection working while microwave does not halves the diagnosis immediately
    • Fitted into a cut opening, so replacing it is a joinery job, not a purchase
    What this involves
  • Meter probes held against the door interlock switches inside the frame of a microwave
    from $145

    Microwave door interlock repair

    A door that needs a push, a latch with play in it, or a cavity that has stopped running altogether — one circuit behind all three. The interlocks are safety switches, wired so that the machine cannot run unless all of them agree the door is shut, and a door that has dropped on its hinges stops satisfying them long before it looks wrong. This is worth a visit on its own even while the machine is still heating perfectly well, and we would rather say that than wait to be called for something else.

    • A microwave door is a shielding component, not a lid
    • Three switches in series: one out of agreement stops everything
    • Worth booking while the machine still works, not after it stops
    What this involves
  • A squirrel-cage blower wheel unbolted from a range hood housing and lowered out of it in two gloved hands, greasy vanes clearly visible, the empty motor mount and wiring above.
    from $165

    Range hood motor and blower service

    A hood that has got louder, weaker, or has stopped altogether. The manuals for these carry no troubleshooting section whatsoever — three checked, all silent — so everything here comes from what actually fails. Noise that grew slowly is grease loading on the impeller and recovers with a proper clean; noise that arrived suddenly is a bearing or something loose in the housing and is worth stopping for. A hood that runs and does not clear the kitchen is usually not the hood at all.

    • No troubleshooting section exists in the manuals — three checked, all silent
    • Noise that grew is grease; noise that arrived is a bearing
    • The outside vent tested before any part is discussed
    What this involves
  • Four steel baffle filters standing on edge in a sink of hot soapy water, grease lifting off them into the foam, the empty hood canopy visible out of focus above and behind.
    from $175

    Hood liner service

    The concealed liners this make is known for, built to vanish into somebody else's millwork, and that is exactly what makes them awkward. Getting to one means working inside a cabinet that was closed around it, often with no service access at all, and the honest position is that this is joinery work as much as appliance work. We say before the visit what will have to come off, and we do not open a cabinet we cannot put back.

    • Access said out loud beforehand — this is joinery as much as appliance
    • We do not open a cabinet we cannot close again to the same standard
    • The duct above the liner is checked while it is the only chance to
    What this involves
  • An LED lamp module unclipped from the underside of a hood liner and hanging on its lead, the dark control strip and two baffle filters beside it.
    from $119

    Hood light and control service

    Lamps out, a touch strip that has stopped responding, or a hood that runs at one speed whatever is asked of it. Small work, and it splits the machine usefully: lamps and motor are generally on different circuits after the switch, so lights that work while the fan does not points away from the supply entirely. Touch strips are the common failure in a kitchen where the hood is wiped down every day, and they are a straightforward part.

    • Lights working while the fan does not points away from the supply
    • Touch strips fail from daily cleaning, and they are an ordinary part
    • Lamp type matched to the liner, because the wrong one cooks its own holder
    What this involves
  • A technician kneeling at the open service panel of one of three stacked washer and dryer pairs in a condominium laundry room, tool roll open on the tiles beside him.
    from $225

    Commercial laundry service

    Domestic Asko laundry doing commercial-scale work, which is the honest description of almost every building machine on this badge — there is no US professional catalog to pretend otherwise about. A condominium amenity room, a boutique hotel's housekeeping closet, a salon washing towels twice a day. These machines tolerate it better than most, which is exactly why they end up doing it, and the failure pattern is its own: wear parts arrive years early and everything else arrives on time.

    • Said plainly: these are domestic machines under building duty
    • Same-day turnaround, because there is no second laundry room
    • One contact who is not a resident, and a written record after every visit
    What this involves
  • A clipboard with a handwritten cycle-count sheet resting on the folding counter of a condominium laundry room, three stacked machine pairs out of focus behind it.
    from $195

    Building laundry maintenance plan

    Planned work for amenity rooms and housekeeping closets, priced as planned work rather than as a series of emergencies. The argument for it is one number: a household pair runs perhaps five cycles a week, and an amenity room in a fifty-unit building can run that in a day — so it reaches a year of domestic wear in about six weeks. The consequence of missing that is not an inconvenience. A door seal that has been cutting for a month puts water into a slab, and in a condominium that becomes several units' problem.

    • The interval is set by cycles per week, not by the calendar
    • A cutting door seal in a condominium ends as somebody else's ceiling
    • Spares held on site turn a two-visit repair into one
    What this involves
  • A gloved hand wiping white salt bloom off the stainless flank of a machine standing in an open-sided terrace utility run, the sea haze bright beyond the railing.
    from $135

    Salt air protection service

    A visit that exists because of where these machines are rather than what they are. On a barrier island or a terrace kitchen, salt reaches hinges, fasteners, trim, backdraft dampers and the outdoor dishwasher's door long before anything electrical goes wrong, and every one of those is cheap while it is still moving and expensive once it is not. Nothing here is exotic: it is cleaning, treating and freeing things on a schedule, and it is the difference between a ten-year machine and a five-year one on this coast.

    • Written for this coast: hinges, fasteners, dampers and outdoor doors
    • Everything on the list is cheap while it still moves
    • Best booked with another visit, since it is an hour rather than an afternoon
    What this involves

Worth saying

Sometimes the measured answer is do not spend the money

A drum bearing on a twelve-year-old machine, a board with no supply route left, a cracked hob whose glass is no longer made. In each case the diagnostic buys an answer rather than a part, and it is the same figure either way.

On a steel-framed Asko that answer is more often keep it than it would be on most makes, and we give the arithmetic before starting rather than after.

Before you book

The questions this page is asked

Why is every figure a from?

Because the same job is not the same work on two machines. Which generation the appliance is can change the part number entirely, and how it is fitted changes the hour. The exact cost is confirmed at your appliance, in writing, before anything is opened.

Is the diagnostic charged if I do not go ahead?

The diagnostic is from $95 and it comes off the repair when you do go ahead. Where the answer is that the machine is not worth mending, or that a part has no route left, you have paid for a measured answer rather than for a component.

Do you quote over the phone?

We give the starting figure and what moves it, which is what these pages are for. We do not give a final price for a machine nobody has looked at, and on a make with three dishwasher code schemes that is not caution — it is the difference between a right answer and a confident wrong one.

In more detail

Where these numbers come from

Researched bands, not our invoices

Every figure is a researched market band for South Florida — what the same part and the same labor go for here, narrowed by what the part actually is on this equipment and by what the access costs in time. None of it is an invoice, an average of invoices, or a quote.

What a from means

The diagnostic is from $95 and it is the same figure across this fleet. Everything else starts where the page says and is agreed in writing at your appliance before a panel comes off.

Not sure which of these it is?

Tell us what the machine is doing and the model code off its door edge, and we will say which page you are on. Where a diagnostic is the right next step it is from $95, credited toward the repair.
