The 5 best dishwasher repair services in Edinburgh won’t keep you waiting long
When my dishwasher packed in and left a small loch on the kitchen floor, I realised just how much I’d taken it for granted. Calling in a proper dishwasher repair technician in Edinburgh saved me from a week of hand-washing plates!
It’s the kind of service you don’t think about until you desperately need it. Luckily, some pros know their way around a leaky dishwasher, and here are the best ones I’ve encountered.
How much does dishwasher repair cost in Edinburgh?
Dishwasher repair in Edinburgh typically costs £100 to £250, with minor fixes starting at around £50 and major parts costing over £300. Labour rates average £33 to £50 per hour, and some services charge a £105 call-out fee, though this may be waived if you go ahead with the repair.
1. White Eagle Repair LTD
Services: Domestic appliances repair and maintenance
Location: 4 Redgauntlet Terrace
Contact: +441312100100
Hours: Monday to Friday, 9 AM–5 PM
White Eagle Repair LTD made fixing my dishwasher a straightforward affair. It’s good to know they cover a wide range of brands, so when mine broke down, the team knew exactly what was needed with no fuss.
I like how fast they worked; I booked a slot, and they gave me a tight two-hour window, showing up the next day. When a leak turned into a mini-emergency, their emergency repair option felt like a lifesaver.
The pricing was refreshingly clear—a fixed £80 labour fee plus parts, VAT included, with no call-out charges, unlike other firms. The guarantee came in the form of a “no fix, no pay” promise, along with a six-month labour warranty and a year on parts.
Suffice it to say, my experience matched the reviews I’d read of them being reliable. White Eagle Repair does offer same-day or next-day availability, which is gold when the dishwasher is out of action.
The only downside is that they can get fully booked on busy weeks. And while £80 plus parts is fair, it’s not the cheapest option in town for smaller issues.
He came in and repaired it in less than 10 minutes
The best repair service I’ve ever used! They sent Mateusz to repair my dishwasher door – something three other people had spent hours trying to fix but failed. He came in and repaired it in less than 10 minutes, like it was a piece of cake. I’m really impressed by Mateusz, and I strongly recommend White Eagle Repair!

They came at short notice and gave us a 2-hour window
We wouldn’t go to anyone else for repairs. We have had our dishwasher repaired, and today our oven. Very reasonably priced and fixed really quickly. They came at short notice and gave us a 2-hour window, which was great and then a text when they were 10 minutes away. Excellent company, and every member of staff we have interacted with has been professional and friendly. Thanks so much again!

2. City Domestics
Services: Kitchen appliances repair
Location: 90 Milton Road
Contact: +441316574614
Hours: Monday to Friday, 9.30 AM–5 PM
Mum thought her dishwasher had tanked until City Domestics swooped in, covering a broad range of major appliance brands without any faff. They clearly knew their way around makes like Bosch (my mum’s) or Beko, and quickly got things diagnosed.
Booking was straightforward even for a technophobe like Mum, who was impressed by the team’s fast turnaround. They squeezed her in the next day and kept her posted on the arrival time.
She said the pricing was reasonable, and they were upfront about the costs: no sneaky call-out fees, just an affordable fix that saved her from replacing the whole unit. Mum found peace of mind in knowing they’ve got strong local customer backing.
That said, they don’t advertise emergency or out-of-hours service, so if your dishwasher leaks on a Friday night, you might be in for some handwashing till Monday.
And because they’re small and family-run, their schedule fills up quickly (so book early to avoid delays).
Was able to fix on the spot!
The engineer was able to come at pretty short notice, despite being busy. Checked over my machine carefully and diagnosed the problem quickly, which he was able to fix on the spot! He was really knowledgeable about the machine and full of great advice about how to maintain it. Would definitely recommend!

Great people with deep appliance knowledge
Great people with deep appliance knowledge. Local, reliable. So wonderful to be able to repair rather than replace. Strongly recommend.

3. Trinity Domestics
Services: Kitchen appliances repair, warranty repairs
Location: Unit 15 – Unit 16, 30 Cultins Rd
Contact: +441313328349
Hours: Monday to Friday, 9 AM–4 PM
At my old Leith flat, my neighbours and I relied on Trinity Domestics enough times to know they can handle nearly any dishwasher make—Bosch, Beko, Miele, you name it—and their engineers always turned up prepared for the job.
They’ve been doing this since 1994 and know their onions. Once, I called them and they immediately booked me and arrived on time—no waiting in all-day slots!
Having them do warranty repairs as Beko’s authorised agent was the cherry on top, especially since they also handle Liebherr and Rangemaster warranties. A plus is their upfront costs, from diagnostics to fixing, with courteous heads-up at every turn.
Their communication is solid; they actually pick up the phone, and I didn’t feel like just another job on their list—real personal touch there. Being family-run, they’ve built trust with owners, agents, and neighbours across Edinburgh.
The downside is they only operate during standard hours, not evenings or weekends, so if your dishwasher throws a wobbly on Saturday night, you’re on dish-duty until Monday.
Punctual, great communication
Really impressed with the service received from Trinity Domestics. Punctual, great communication, cared about doing a professional job, ( replacement dishwasher, had to remove a plinth to gain access, no drama at all ), very friendly. From the first visit to analyse the issue to installation, Trinity Domestics were first class.

Dan was prompt, friendly, and knowledgeable
Dan from Trinity Domestics arrived promptly this morning. We had received a text reminder yesterday and a phone call this morning to confirm an exact time. Dan was prompt, friendly, knowledgeable and very professional. He was able to diagnose and fix the fault quickly. We would highly recommend Trinity Domestics.

4. Appliance Doctor Edinburgh Repairs
Services: Domestic appliances sales and repair
Location: 80 Longstone Street
Contact: +441314440911
Hours:
Monday to Thursday, 9 AM–8 PM
Friday, 9 AM–5 PM
When my best pal’s dishwasher went on the fritz, she rang up the Appliance Doctor, who came across as confident and experienced. They cover all major brands and kicked off things with a free estimate, so she knew what to expect.
She managed to nab a same-day slot, thanks to the non-fussy booking process. All her nagging “what if it breaks again?” worries dissipated when the team guaranteed all their work.
Along with the free estimate, she got no hidden call-out fees. That kind of transparency is appreciated, on top of the punctual technicians and the friendly office staff correspondence.
However, being a smaller local outfit means there’s always a chance they’re booked up tight, which could mean a wait until a slot is free. The Appliance Doctor doesn’t offer emergency services, either.
He helped us over the phone without charging us
Great help and so kind! He helped us over the phone without charging us – wonderfully kind and full of helpful info – saving us a call out and unnecessary expense! Thank you so much!

5. Lothian Domestics Ltd
Services: Domestic appliances repair
Location: International House, 38 Thistle Street
Contact: +441315162080
Hours:
Monday to Thursday, 9 AM–4 PM
Friday, 9 AM–2 PM
Our office pantry has a clunky dishwasher, which stopped mid-cycle when I was working an early morning shift. I called up Lothian Domestics, and their 24/7 online booking gave me a same-day slot (no faff, just click-and-fix!).
Their engineer turned up swiftly, texting me when they were en route, and arrived with a van full of parts. I’ve been told by other office habitues in the building that most jobs they deal with wrap up on the first visit.
They also offer a solid 90-day guarantee on most repairs, so if the exact part fails, they’ll sort it again at no charge. I like that I didn’t have to sweat over hidden fees to present to accounting because their online quote was transparent.
Our next-door workplace colleagues, who recommended the firm to me, raved about Lothian Domestics’ courteous engineers and punctual arrival, which was quite reassuring when office dishware starts piling up.
That said, while efficient, they’re not the cheapest; however, I learned from my neighbour tenants that they offer a reduced fee option if they can’t complete the fix.
Also, their 90-day guarantee only covers the fitted part and expires if the issue isn’t promptly reported.
Easy to make an appointment, great availability
Easy to make an appointment, great availability, and I got messages to confirm the appointment and to let me know when the engineer was en route to my house. This is the second time my appliance had the same issue; the first time was repaired by another company, which was more expensive and took a lot longer to diagnose and fix. Paul, this time, was very quick on the diagnosis and solution. I was impressed by how quick it all was! Definitely recommend!

The dishwasher was repaired and was working within 30 minutes
Excellent service, easy to book an appointment online for the very next day. I had a text message to say the engineer was on his way. He was here on time, quickly recognised the issue and had a part for it in his van. The dishwasher was repaired and was working within 30 minutes of arrival. I would definitely recommend and will use again if ever needed. Also, both engineers were very friendly and I felt at ease with them in my home. Thank you.
