Dishwasher Repair Cost in Toronto — 2026 Price Guide
Dishwasher repair costs in Toronto range from under $100 for a simple door latch to over $400 for a control board on a premium brand. Understanding what drives repair costs helps you make an informed decision about repair vs replacement. This guide covers the most common dishwasher repairs our Fixlify technicians perform across Toronto and the GTA.
Drain Pump Replacement — $160–$250
A dishwasher that does not drain at the end of a cycle usually has a failed drain pump or a blocked pump filter. The filter (under the lower spray arm) should be cleaned monthly. If the pump motor has burned out, replacement parts run $60–$120 and labour adds $80–$130 for a total of $160–$250. Bosch and Miele drain pumps are at the higher end due to part cost. LG and Samsung drain pumps are mid-range.
Control Board Replacement — $240–$420
The control board (main PCB) governs every cycle, temperature setting, and sensor input. Symptoms of a failed control board include: random error codes, dishwasher not responding to button presses, cycle not completing, or display going blank. Control board parts range from $120 for entry-level models to $280 for Bosch and Miele. Labour is $120–$140. Total $240–$420 makes this cost-effective only on dishwashers under 8 years old or premium brands with replacement cost above $1,200.
Door Latch Assembly — $110–$160
A faulty door latch prevents the dishwasher from starting. The assembly includes a mechanical hook, a door switch, and in some models a door sensor. Parts are $40–$80; labour brings the total to $110–$160. A common misdiagnosis is the control board when the actual fault is simply a broken door switch — proper diagnosis saves $150+.
Spray Arm and Wash Pump — $130–$220
Poor cleaning results with water in the tub but dishes coming out dirty usually point to blocked spray arm holes or a failing wash pump. Spray arms can be removed and cleaned or replaced for $20–$40. If the wash pump impeller is damaged, replacement runs $130–$220 all-in.
Heating Element — $140–$200
Dishes not drying or water staying cold points to a failed heating element or NTC temperature sensor. Most dishwasher heating elements are U-shaped stainless coils at the bottom of the tub. Heating element replacement is $140–$200 including labour for most brands.
