How do brand and quality tier change the repair cost?
Brand and tier adjust the parts portion only — never labour. Value brands such as Beko, Indesit, Hoover and Candy have the cheapest, most widely stocked parts; premium and luxury lines (AEG, Bosch, Siemens, Miele) carry pricier, often OEM-restricted components.

A rattling or grinding noise right at the end of the cycle usually points to a worn or jammed drain pump - often a piece of glass or crockery trapped inside it.

How much is a service-call fee for dishwasher repair?
Most Irish companies charge a call-out / diagnostic fee of €49–€103, often credited toward the repair if you go ahead. It is separate from the repair totals above. VAT on repair labour is Ireland's reduced 13.5% rate (a parts-heavy job can flip to 23% under the two-thirds rule), and many sole-trader repairers fall under the €42,500 services threshold and add none — treat 13.5% as the normal effect and 23% as the parts-heavy ceiling.
Is it worth repairing a dishwasher, or should you replace it?
A common rule of thumb: if the repair cost exceeds roughly half the price of a comparable new unit — or the appliance is past ~8 years for a dishwasher — replacement is often the better value. The calculator's localized totals give you the number to weigh against a new-unit quote.
Prices are county-level estimates based on county wage data (CSO NEA06 2024), not fake city precision. Shopping in the U.S.? See the U.S. version (USD). In Canada? See the Canadian version (CAD).
