LG
Known for direct-drive washing machines and linear compressor fridge freezers, with a strong UK following. Typical repair cost for a LG washing machine: £70–£180.
LG uses letter codes: OE (drain), IE (fill), UE (unbalanced), dE (door), PF (power failure) and others.
Most LG washing machine repairs cost £70–£180 including parts and labour. Prices depend on the fault and parts availability.
If the machine is under 8 years old and the fault is a pump, door lock, hose, heater or carbon brushes, repair is almost always worth it. Drum bearing or main board failures on budget machines over 8 years old are where replacement starts to make sense.
The model and serial number are on a rating plate — typically inside the door frame, on the back panel, or inside the fridge on the side wall. Quote it when booking a repair so the engineer brings the right parts.
