Prices
How much does a home repair cost in Leuven?
In Leuven and the surrounding area you pay the same fixed price as everywhere in Belgium. No hourly rate, no surprises afterwards.
A technician finds the cause of the fault at your home. If you then decide not to go ahead with the repair, you only pay for the diagnosis.
If the technician can repair it, you pay €110. No time limit: even if it takes long or a second visit is needed.
Spare parts are not included. The technician tells you in advance if a part is needed and what it costs.
Chrono surcharge for a visit in the evening, at the weekend or just a few hours after your request.
Second appliance during the same visit? The technician can check and repair it too for €80.
Maintenance as well? The technician can also clean and check your appliance thoroughly, for €50 per appliance on top of the diagnosis and repair.
Prefer remote help first? A video repair costs €49. See all our prices →

Washing machine and dishwasher repair in Leuven
In Leuven we are called out most often for washing machines and dishwashers. These are the questions we hear most, with what you can check yourself before you book.
Why won’t my washing machine spin any more?
First check that the laundry isn’t bunched on one side of the drum: with a small load the machine refuses to spin to protect itself. If that isn’t it, the lint filter is often blocked, and you can unscrew and clean it yourself. If the problem stays, it is usually worn carbon brushes in the motor or a faulty speed sensor. That needs a technician.
Why is my washing machine so noisy when it spins?
A grinding or rumbling noise that gets worse with every wash points to worn drum bearings. If the machine bangs and moves across the floor, the shock absorbers or springs are worn. A ticking or rattling sound often comes from a bra wire or a coin between the drum and the tub. The technician usually removes that in about a quarter of an hour.
Why won’t my dishwasher drain?
Usually the filter at the bottom is full of food scraps, or the drain pump is blocked by a shard of glass or a fruit sticker. First take out the filter and rinse it under the tap. If the water stays, the pump needs to be checked.
Why do my dishes still come out dirty?
Do the spray arms turn freely and are their holes open? Limescale and food scraps block them. Also check the salt reservoir and the rinse aid. If the result stays poor, the circulation pump isn’t giving enough pressure or the appliance isn’t heating.
All faults and error codes by brand are on washing machine repair and dishwasher repair.
Tumble dryer and fridge repair in Leuven
In flats and smaller houses, the tumble dryer often stands in a storeroom or bathroom with no vent to the outside. Then everything depends on clean filters and a clear condenser.
Why won’t my tumble dryer dry any more?
On a heat pump dryer the condenser is almost always the cause. Lint clogs the fins, the air can’t get through and the laundry stays damp. Clean the lint filter after every cycle and the plinth filter every month. If the laundry stays damp, you need a technician.
Why does my tumble dryer fill up with water?
The condensed water container overflows because the pump can’t lift the water up, or the float switch is stuck. If you had a fixed drain connected, first check that the hose isn’t kinked behind the appliance.
Why is ice forming in my fridge?
Ice or water at the bottom of the fridge usually comes from a blocked drain hole for the defrost water at the back. Clear it carefully with a cotton bud and lukewarm water. If the door no longer closes properly, humid air gets in and freezes. On a no-frost appliance, the defrost system may also be faulty.
Can you top up the refrigerant gas in my fridge?
No. We don’t repair refrigeration faults: no leak in the cooling circuit, no faulty compressor, and so no regassing either. The leak is usually in the foam insulation of the back wall and can’t be reached, and the full job costs more than the appliance is worth. If the technician finds this on site, you only pay the €69 diagnosis.
All faults and error codes by brand are on tumble dryer repair and fridge repair.
All brands, in Leuven too
Our technicians work on the same brands every day and know the error codes of those appliances. We are an independent repair service, not an official service partner of any brand. For you, that mainly means shorter waiting times and a price you know in advance.
We also repair Bosch, Samsung, Whirlpool, Beko, Zanussi, Atag, Electrolux, Bauknecht and Smeg appliances at home in Leuven. Give the brand and model number when you book, so the technician brings the right parts.
Repairs in Leuven and the surrounding area
Whether you live inside the Leuven ring road or in a village in the Hageland, the repair works the same way. A few things make the visit smoother.
Where does the technician park inside the Leuven ring road?
In the city centre, a space by the door is rare and many streets are one-way. Do you know a free space, a driveway or a loading zone nearby? Mention it when you book, and the technician will be at your door sooner.
I live in a flat without a lift. Can the appliance be repaired there?
Yes. We repair on site, so the appliance doesn’t have to go down the stairs. Just make sure there is room to pull it forward a little.
Is it a washing machine in Leuven?
Our page on washing machine repair in Leuven covers the most common washing machine faults in the city.
What should I prepare before the technician arrives?
Make the appliance accessible. Take the laundry out of the drum or the dishes out of the racks. Have the model number and the error code ready, so the diagnosis is quicker. Someone aged 18 or over must be present.
