Appliance cover
Dishwasher cover
Water on the kitchen floor at the end of a long day is the last thing anyone needs.
Dishwashers combine water, heat and electronics in one box under a worktop. Leaks are the expensive failure, because by the time you notice, the floor has usually had it too.

Common faults
The parts that most often fail, and typical repair costs.
Typical UK parts-and-labour figures for a single repair. On a plan, a breakdown in any of these is covered once the appliance’s 60-day waiting period has passed. Without a plan, you’d pay the bill yourself.
Circulation pump
Runs the cycle, dishes come out dirty.
£170–£280
Control board
Lights flashing, won't select a programme.
£160–£300
Heater element
Cold water wash, nothing dries.
£120–£190
Inlet valve
Won't fill, or won't stop filling.
£90–£150
Drain pump
Standing water in the bottom.
£85–£140
Door seal
Water tracking down the cabinet front.
£70–£125
Figures are typical, not a quote. On a plan, the repair is covered whichever part has failed, as long as the fault isn’t one of the exclusions below.

No card needed to see your price, and nobody will ring you unless you ask.
What’s included
What every plan includes.
Unlimited callouts
Report as many separate faults as you need to during your plan year. There's no cap on how many times you can call us out.
Parts and labour together
The price of your plan covers the engineer’s time and the parts they fit. You don’t get a second bill after the visit.
Replacement if it can't be repaired
If our engineer decides your appliance can't be economically repaired, we replace it rather than leaving you with a dead machine.
Mechanical and electrical breakdown
Both sides of a failure are covered: the moving parts that wear out and the electronics that stop talking to them.
A UK helpdesk
You speak to someone in the UK who can see your plan and book the engineer on the same call.
Discounts when you upgrade
If you decide to replace an appliance yourself rather than repair it, we'll put our trade discount towards the new one.
Before you buy
What dishwashercover doesn’t include.
The same exclusions apply to every appliance, and you shouldn’t have to go looking for them. Here are the first six, and the full list is one click away.
Anything that breaks in your first 60 days
Each appliance has a 60-day waiting period from the day it's added to your plan before you can book a repair on it, and a breakdown in that window isn't covered. It stops people signing up with a machine that's already broken, which is what keeps the price where it is. If something fails during those 60 days, call us anyway, and we'll quote you for a one-off repair at our normal rate. This is separate from your 14-day right to cancel.
A fault that was already there
If the appliance was faulty, noisy, leaking or intermittent before you took cover out, that fault isn't covered. Cover is for things that go wrong after you're on the plan, not things that already have.
Scratches, dents and marks
Cosmetic damage isn't covered. If the door is scuffed but the machine works, that's not a breakdown. Handles, trims and fascias are only covered when the appliance won't function without them.
Accidental damage and misuse
Dropping it, overloading it, running it without water, putting the wrong thing through it. If the failure was caused rather than worn, it isn't a breakdown.
Bad installation
Transit bolts left in, no earth, an unvented dryer in a sealed cupboard, a waste pipe plumbed uphill. If the appliance failed because of how it was fitted, that's a job for whoever fitted it.
Consumables and routine maintenance
Filters, bags, belts on vacuum brush bars, bulbs, shelves, seals you're meant to wipe, descaling, cleaning a blocked pump of coins and hair grips. Wear items and upkeep are yours.
