How Much Does Dishwasher Repair Cost in Toronto in 2026?
Dishwashers are among the most cost-effective appliances to repair. The replacement cost of a new dishwasher ranges from $650 for a basic model to $2,000+ for Bosch or Miele, while the vast majority of dishwasher repairs fall well under $300 CAD. Unless your machine has multiple simultaneous failures or is a discontinued model with unavailable parts, repair almost always wins the financial comparison.
These prices are based on actual repairs performed across our GTA service zones in early 2026, covering Toronto, Scarborough, North York, Etobicoke, Mississauga, Brampton, Vaughan, Markham, Richmond Hill, Oakville, and Durham Region.
Dishwasher Repair Costs by Component — Toronto 2026
Drain Pump Replacement — $130–$230 CAD
The most common dishwasher repair. A failed drain pump leaves standing water in the bottom of the machine and causes error codes (IE on LG, E24 on Bosch). Drain pump access is easier on some brands than others — Bosch pumps require panel removal, slightly increasing labour time.
Water Inlet Valve — $130–$220 CAD
When the dishwasher doesn't fill with water, the inlet valve is the first suspect. Also causes water pooling under the machine when the valve doesn't close fully. Quick diagnosis, typically replaced in 30–45 minutes.
Door Gasket (Seal) — $130–$210 CAD
The rubber door seal prevents water from leaking during cycles. Torn or flattened gaskets cause water puddles on the floor in front of the dishwasher. Gasket replacement is straightforward and usually doesn't require panel removal.
Heating Element — $140–$240 CAD
The heating element heats water during the wash cycle and dries dishes at the end. When it fails, dishes come out wet and cold. Common on all major brands. Labour is moderate — the element is at the bottom of the tub.
Wash Pump / Circulation Pump — $160–$280 CAD
The wash pump circulates water through the spray arms. Failure results in dishes not being cleaned despite the machine running normally. Louder than a drain pump failure — often preceded by grinding or humming sounds.
Control Board — $200–$340 CAD
Electronic control board failure causes error codes, buttons not responding, or the machine not starting at all. Boards vary significantly in cost by brand — Bosch and Miele boards are more expensive than Whirlpool or GE equivalents.
Spray Arm Replacement — $90–$160 CAD
Clogged or cracked spray arms cause poor cleaning. Often the spray arm itself can be cleaned rather than replaced, but cracked arms must be replaced. Inexpensive repair, quick labour.
Float Switch — $110–$180 CAD
The float switch detects water levels. A stuck or failed float causes the machine to either overflow or refuse to fill. One of the simpler electrical repairs on a dishwasher.
Dishwasher Repair Costs by Brand in Toronto 2026

- GE / Frigidaire: $120–$260 CAD
- Bosch: $160–$350 CAD — proprietary components cost more; pump and control module especially
- Miele: $190–$400 CAD — premium part costs, longer supply lead times for some components
What Does a Dishwasher Repair Visit Look Like Near Toronto?
Book a Local Technician
Call (437) 524-1053. We'll ask about the brand, model, and symptom and match you with a technician in your zone.
Technician Diagnoses the Fault
Your tech runs the dishwasher, checks error codes, inspects the drain and wash pumps, door seal, and control board — whatever the symptom points to.
Fixed Quote Before Any Work
The $85–$95 diagnostic fee is waived on repair approval. You receive a final price covering all parts and labour before we proceed.
Repair and Test Cycle
Repair is completed with parts from the van where possible. A full wash cycle is run to confirm before the technician leaves.
When to Replace Instead of Repair Your Dishwasher in Toronto
Replace if: the machine is over 10–12 years old and requires a control board replacement; if multiple components fail simultaneously; if the tub or door frame is cracked or corroded beyond sealing. For all other common failures on machines under 10 years old, repair is the financially sound choice in 2026.
Pro Tip: Before calling for a dishwasher drain failure, check the filter. The filter basket at the bottom of the tub is the most overlooked maintenance item on dishwashers. A severely clogged filter mimics drain pump failure in symptoms and takes 5 minutes to clean yourself. We've made this call before — clean the filter, no service call needed.
