Appliance Repair in Tallaght

The diagnostic finding, parts fitted with part numbers, labor charged, the warranty period on parts and labor, and the business's registration details. You need this paper trail for warranty claims and, for gas or refrigerant work, proof it was done by a certified person.

Brand, model number (on a sticker inside the door or on the back), the exact symptom, any error code on the display, and the appliance's age. A model number lets the technician bring the likely part on the first visit, often saving a second call-out.

Diagnosis takes 20-45 minutes. If the part is on the van, most repairs finish in under 90 minutes. If a part must be ordered, expect a second visit 2-10 days later; ask whether the second visit incurs another call-out fee (it usually shouldn't).

Burning smells, tripping breakers, sparking sockets, a gas smell from a cooker, and a dryer that gets very hot or has a blocked vent. Unplug the appliance (or shut the gas valve) and stop using it until it's inspected. Water leaks near electrics also warrant switching off the circuit.

A reputable repairer warrants both parts and labor — typically 3-12 months. Manufacturer parts usually carry 12 months. Get the warranty in writing on the invoice; a repairer who won't warranty their work is a red flag.

Most single-appliance repairs land between the cost of one to three hours of labor plus parts. Expect a call-out or diagnostic fee first, then a quote. Simple fixes (belts, seals, thermostats) sit at the low end; sealed-system work like a fridge compressor can cost more than half the price of a new machine.

Call-outs run €50-€100 with Dublin dearest, and common washing machine or dishwasher repairs total €120-€300 including parts. Sealed-system fridge repairs frequently exceed €350, where a replacement is usually better value.

Yes — by law, only RGI-registered gas installers may work on gas appliances in Ireland. You can verify registration on rgi.ie. An unregistered repair is illegal, dangerous, and can void your home insurance.
