Repair charges and ranges in pounds, as the British sources publish them

The tables on the rest of this site come from one repair company’s completed jobs, and that company states its own publishing limits in the words quoted here. Its failure-mix page says, in English: “A brand and appliance combination is published only with at least 200 matched jobs. Twenty-six combinations qualify.” “a brand is reported only where at least sixty qualifying repairs support it; brand and appliance combinations require at least forty” The brand names those two pages do publish are: Samsung, GE, Whirlpool, Frigidaire, LG, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Maytag, Bosch.

The tables below are different publishers and a different kind of figure: a British consumer organisation’s own survey ranges appliance by appliance, one Liverpool repair business’s own fixed labour charge, one London repair company’s own price list, and the results of a funded repair voucher trial. Each figure is reproduced as that page prints it, with the publisher named beside it, and the sample behind a range is printed exactly as the publisher describes it.

no first-hand brand record was found for the United Kingdom: the British sources cited on this page publish their own repair ranges by job, fault and appliance, not by brand, and no search returned a UK recall or repair record that names a brand with a published count (checked 2026-09-20).

Repair charges and ranges, as the British sources publish them

What a consumer organisation publishes, appliance by appliance

The seventeen rows below are the ones this consumer organisation publishes in its own tables, under its own column headings (“Job”, “Estimated price range”, “Time to do job”), for the faults it names. The page is dated 08 May 2026 and states the sample its ranges rest on; that sample is a number of traders, not a number of repairs, and the page says so in its own words below.

Which? (the United Kingdom consumer organisation) — its own survey-based price ranges for common appliance repairs. “Prices based on a survey of 8 Which? Trusted Traders, gathered in November 2025. Prices include labour and materials but exclude VAT, and are based on a standard, mid-range appliance.”

The same page prints the call-out charge separately from the table rows, in its own words: “Call-out charges will vary depending on your region, and can range from £45-£150.” and adds “Hourly rates tend to be lower.” It states its own limit as: “Our figures are only a guide to average costs, and there are several factors that can affect how much you’ll be charged, including:” where you live, the age and condition of the appliance, how long the job takes, the make and model, and the cost of any new parts. Its two footnote markers are explained in its own words: “Many respondents said they don't do this as the machine is often beyond repair. Where N/A is shown, we were unable to collect the data.” and “Not all brands supply replacement seals so you may need to replace the door.” The same publisher’s OLDER edition of this guide (trustedtraders.which.co.uk/articles/cost-guide-domestic-appliance-repairs, dated “Last Updated: Dec 2020”, carrying the note “¹Costs were checked and updated in 2018.”) prints a DIFFERENT call-out figure, in its own words: “Call-out charges will vary depending on your region, and can range from £45-£125.” The two figures are printed side by side with their own dates; they are not averaged into one, and neither is chosen over the other.

This source publishes neither a job count nor a median. The one sample it does publish is a number of businesses, not a number of repairs: “Prices based on a survey of 8 Which? Trusted Traders, gathered in November 2025.” — eight traders answered for the jobs they named, so the count of eight is never the number of repairs behind a range, and the ranges are the traders’ own estimates rather than a median of invoices. The page states the limit itself (“Our figures are only a guide to average costs”), the rows are not added together here, and the call-out charge above is the source’s own separate line rather than part of any row.

What a Liverpool repair business publishes for its own labour

The rows below are the ones this Liverpool business publishes for its own labour charge, in its own words, on the page where it introduces itself. It is a single fixed charge rather than an hourly rate, the page states what it does and does not cover, and the parts are charged on top of it.

Penny Lane Domestic Appliances (an independent service engineer, Liverpool) — its own fixed labour charge for washing machine repairs, published on its own page. “This labour charge remain fixed and is not based on an hourly rate – it is One simple charge which covers your repair whether we complete it on the first call or have to come back another day if parts are required to be ordered.”

The same page limits its own service in its own words: “I specialise in the repair and sales of washing machines offing a fast, professional, reliable, and affordable repair service with minimum delay.” Its coverage is stated as: “We repair and sell washing machines covering the areas of Liverpool including: Bootle, Crosby, Maghull, Kirkby, Prescot, Whiston, Huyton and Widnes. We’re sorry; we don't cross the river Mersey to the Wirral and Runcorn.” and “We don't enter the city centre”. It prints its own opening hours as “Monday to Saturday between 8:00am - 6:30pm”, its guarantee as “All our repairs come with a 12 months parts and labour guarantee”, and its own statement of how often it finishes on the first visit as “We aim to complete at least 80% of repairs on the first visit”. It also compares itself with other businesses in its own words: “At a time when manufacturers are offering repairs with labour / call-out charges of £90 - £160 or national companies are offering ' fixed charge repairs ' at inflated prices, we believe we offer a quality repair at a reasonable price.” That figure is the page’s own statement about other businesses, not this business’s charge, and it is not added to anything on this page.

This source publishes neither a job count nor a median, and it does not describe how the charge was set: the rows are reproduced as published and none of them is cited here as a median. The charge is the labour for a repair, with the replacement parts charged on top of it as the page states, so it is not a repair total: no parts price is published here, nothing above is added together, and the page’s own figure for other businesses is not this business’s charge.

What a London repair company publishes for each appliance

The twelve rows below are the ones this London repair company publishes in its own price list, under its own headings (“Appliance Repair Service” and “Price”), reproduced in the form the page prints them. The page states what the price covers: the visit, the diagnosis and the labour, with the parts charged separately — so these are fixed charges for the work, not repair totals.

Repairs4U Ltd (a repair company, London) — its own published price for each appliance repair it lists. “Our fixed price covers both diagnostics and labour, with no hidden hourly fees.”

The same page states what the price covers and what it does not, in its own words: “If a follow-up visit is needed to replace parts, it’s included in the price. Please note that the cost of any replacement parts is additional.” and “Please be aware that the cost of any replacement parts will be charged separately.” The company’s own washing machine page prints the same kind of fee with its own wording: “Includes diagnostic and labour. No hourly charges, and any required second visit for part replacement is covered. Parts cost is additional.” and says “We can repair most faults on the same day”. The company names itself as “Repairs4U Ltd is a registered company in England with number 14354968”.

This source publishes neither a job count nor a median, and it does not describe how the prices were set: the rows are reproduced as published and none of them is cited here as a median. What is published is a fixed charge for the visit, the diagnosis and the labour, and the source states that the replacement parts are charged separately — so it is not a repair total, no parts price is published here, and the rows are not added together.

What a funded repair voucher trial published

The rows below are the results the trial itself publishes from its own scheme in seven North London boroughs, reproduced as that page prints them, each beside the number it belongs to. The two averages are the value of a redeemed voucher and what residents reported they saved: they are not repair prices, and this page does not turn them into one.

The Restart Project with the North London Waste Authority (a funded repair voucher trial) — the results of its own repair voucher trial in North London. “The scheme ran for 12 months between April 2025 and March 2026. It offered residents of seven North London boroughs a 50% discount on electrical repairs, up to £50.”

The same page states who ran the scheme and on what footing, in its own words: “Funded by the North London Waste Authority, The Restart Project worked with ReLondon to design and deliver a scheme, inspired and informed by similar schemes in other countries. The administration platform was delivered by FixFirst.” It also prints, with its own figures: “59% of voucher users earned less than £30,000 a year”. The ceiling in its own description is the scheme’s own limit on the discount, not a repair price, and the average saving is what residents reported rather than an invoice.

This is a funded pilot’s own results, not a price list: the counts and averages carry their own denominators (1,254 vouchers used from 3,600 eligible applications), but the two averages are the value of a redeemed voucher and the saving residents reported, and the scheme capped its own discount at £50. No row above is a repair price and none is a median, and the rows are not added together. It is a 12-month local pilot in seven North London boroughs rather than a national programme.

A parts price, a labour charge, a diagnostic fee and a voucher’s value are four different things, and none of them is a repair price: this page does not add them together, multiply a charge by a number of hours, or present any figure as a quote. None of the British publishers cited here publishes a job count or a median, and the rows are not added together.

The publishers’ own statements about themselves are printed here, because figures from one organisation are not two independent sources. The two call-out figures above come from the same consumer organisation’s two editions of the same guide: the current one, dated 08 May 2026, and an older one, dated “Last Updated: Dec 2020”, which carries the note “¹Costs were checked and updated in 2018.” The two figures are therefore one publisher’s, and they are printed side by side with their own dates rather than averaged or reduced to one. The voucher figures come from a scheme that page describes in its own words as “Funded by the North London Waste Authority, The Restart Project worked with ReLondon to design and deliver a scheme, inspired and informed by similar schemes in other countries. The administration platform was delivered by FixFirst.” The remaining charges come from two separate businesses, each publishing its own prices on its own site.

The British sources publish their ranges and charges in English, in pounds, for the areas and the appliances they name, and the page below reproduces them in the form that source prints them. Their own statements about what the figures cover — and, where one publisher prints two different figures in two editions, both of those figures with their own dates — are reproduced with them, because a range is the source’s own figure and not a price agreed with any household.
