The work itself

In the order it gets done: the cheapest cause first, and the expensive answer at the bottom where it usually belongs.

A technician in a plain gray work shirt stands at a stainless built-in coffee machine set flush in a tall kitchen cabinet in a US home, watching espresso pour from the coffee machine's spouts into a plain white cup while holding a small notepad, a dish of coffee beans on the ledge. Diagnostic fee

Coffee machine diagnostic visit

A visit that brews and froths with you watching, reads the machine's own counters, then tests grinder, brew unit, pump and heater until one part is named.

 A clean coffee machine brew unit, a compact gray and black plastic cylinder with its piston and small rubber seals, resting on a folded cloth on a kitchen counter in a US home beside the open side door of a stainless countertop coffee machine, a plain white cup and a few coffee beans nearby. Cost: low to moderate

Coffee machine brew unit repair

Resealing, lubricating or replacing the brew unit that tamps the grounds and presses water through them, removable or fixed.

 A pair of clean steel conical coffee burrs and a small brush resting on a folded cloth on a kitchen counter in a US home, beside a stainless bean-to-cup coffee machine with its bean hopper lid open and whole coffee beans inside, a plain white cup under the coffee machine's spout. Cost: moderate

Coffee machine grinder repair

Clearing and renewing the burr grinder: jammed beans, a stone between the burrs, worn burrs, and the motor and gearbox that turn them.

 A new small coffee machine vibration pump with short clear silicone hoses resting on a folded cloth on a kitchen counter in a US home, a stainless countertop coffee machine behind it with its side panel set aside, a plain white cup under the coffee machine's spout and a few coffee beans beside it. Cost: moderate

Coffee machine pump repair

Testing and replacing the pump that drives water through the coffee, with the flowmeter that counts each cup and the valves beside it.

 A new coffee machine thermoblock heater, a compact metal block with two short pipe stubs and wire terminals, resting on a folded cloth on a kitchen counter in a US home in front of a stainless countertop coffee machine with a plain white cup under its spout, a few coffee beans beside the cup. Cost: moderate to highest

Coffee machine heater repair

Diagnosing and replacing the thermoblock or boiler that heats water for coffee and steam, with its sensor and thermal cutout.

 A clean coffee machine milk frother taken apart into its small parts, with a thin clear milk tube and a few spare rubber O-rings laid out on a folded cloth on a kitchen counter in a US home, a stainless coffee machine behind them with a glass cup of foamed milk coffee under its spout and a small jug of milk beside it. Cost: low to moderate

Coffee machine milk system repair

Restoring the froth: the milk tube, the frother, the air inlet, the milk valve and the cleaning cycle that keeps them clear.

 A stainless countertop coffee machine on a kitchen counter in a US home with its water tank lifted out beside it and a plain unlabeled bottle of clear descaling liquid and a white water hardness test strip laid next to the tank, a plain white cup under the coffee machine's spout and a few coffee beans on the counter. Cost: lowest

Coffee machine descaling service

A thorough descale of the water path and heater, a fresh filter, hardness set to match your water, and a message that clears.

 A new small coffee machine water inlet valve and a coiled braided water line laid on a folded cloth on the floor of an open lower kitchen cabinet in a US home, a shutoff valve on the wall of the cabinet, a stainless built-in coffee machine visible above in its tall cabinet with a plain white cup under the coffee machine's spouts. Cost: low to moderate

Coffee machine water line repair

The water side: the inlet valve, supply line and drain hose of a plumbed built-in, or the tank valve and level sensor.

 A green coffee machine control board with small relays and connectors lying on an anti-static mat on a kitchen counter in a US home, a stainless countertop coffee machine behind it with its display dark and a plain white cup under the coffee machine's spout, a few coffee beans near the cup. Cost: moderate to highest

Coffee machine control board repair

Testing and replacing the power board, control board and touch panel of a coffee machine, and the sensors they read.

 A small set of new rubber O-rings, a black gasket and a few steel hose clips laid out on a folded cloth on a kitchen counter in a US home beside a stainless countertop coffee machine with its drip tray pulled out and dry, a plain white cup under the coffee machine's spout and coffee beans in a small dish. Cost: low

Coffee machine seal and leak repair

Finding where water or steam escapes inside a coffee machine and renewing the O-rings, gaskets and hose clips that should hold it.

 Before you book

What each of these usually costs

Bands rather than prices, because nobody can quote a figure before the coffee machine has been looked at — and the diagnostic visit that decides it, set against the repair.

What a repair
usually costs.

Weigh the repair against what a new coffee machine of the same kind would really cost you, fitted and working, not only its shelf price. A built-in needs a model that fits the same cabinet opening, trim and rails, and a plumbed one also needs its line and drain set up again; that tips most built-ins firmly toward repair. Seals, a descale, a frother, a sensor or a tank valve are small beside a new machine, and a brew unit, a grinder or a pump is usually still worth it. The one real exception is an entry-level countertop machine that needs a board, a heater and a pump together: there the technician lays both totals side by side and the choice is yours.

RepairRelative costNotes
Brew unit seals, lubrication, drive gear or a complete brew unit low to moderate New piston seals and the maker's grease on a unit that slides out are near the bottom of this band. A worn drive motor on a fixed unit, or a whole new brew unit that is sold only as an assembly, sits one step higher.
Burrs, grinder motor, gearbox or dosing sensor moderate Clearing bridged beans and fitting a fresh pair of burrs is the lighter end. A grinder motor with its gearbox, or a complete grinder assembly after a stone cracked the carrier, is at the top of the band.
Vibration or gear pump, flowmeter, check valves and hoses moderate A clogged flowmeter or a sticking check valve is the modest part of this row. A new pump, fitted with fresh hoses and clips, and a descale of the path it pushed against, makes up the fuller job.
Thermoblock or boiler, heat sensor and thermal cutout moderate to highest A thermal cutout or a heat sensor on its own is a small part. A new thermoblock, or a pair of them on a machine that heats coffee and steam apart, climbs to the top, and the old scale has to be cleared from the rest of the circuit at the same time.
Milk tube, frother, O-rings, milk valve and steam path low to moderate Clearing dried milk and fitting a new tube and O-rings costs little beyond the visit. A replacement frother head, a milk valve or a scaled steam valve behind it moves the job up a step.
Full descale, water hardness set-up and a fresh filter lowest A complete descale through every path with a new filter cartridge is the smallest job here. Valves or a heater passage so choked that they need clearing by hand add time to it.
Tank seat valve and sensor, inlet valve, supply line or drain hose low to moderate A tank float, a seat valve or a cleared inlet screen is a small part and a short visit. A new inlet solenoid, a fresh supply line or drain hose on a plumbed built-in, with the machine drawn forward to reach them, sits a step higher.
Power board, control board, display or touch panel moderate to highest A loose plug, a corroded connector or a single sensor that made the board look guilty costs little. A new control board or display for a built-in is among the dearest parts in the machine, and one for an imported model can take time to arrive.
O-rings, gaskets, hose clips and the brew unit drain valve low Seals and clips are inexpensive parts; most of the cost is the time spent drying the machine and tracing the water to its joint. A cracked tank or a drain valve on a fixed brew unit adds a little to it.

Start from what you noticed

Most people arrive knowing the symptom, not the repair. These are the jobs each one usually turns out to be, cheapest first — and every one of them starts with the coffee machine diagnostic visit.

Questions about
the work.

All I know is the coffee tastes wrong. Which coffee machine service fits?
Pick the diagnostic visit and describe what the cup, the grinder, the milk or the display is doing. Matching that to one of the repairs below is the technician's job, and nothing is ordered or priced before it is done.
My coffee machine has two separate problems. Does one visit cover both?
Most of the time, and inside a coffee machine one failure often feeds the next: scale narrows the heater until the pump labors and grows loud, and a brew unit that no longer seals sends water into the drip tray instead of the cup. Each repair is priced on its own, and you choose which, if any, to go ahead with.
Where can I see what these coffee machine repairs cost?
A milk tube on a countertop machine and a brew-unit seal inside a built-in coffee system are both small parts with very different amounts of labor around them. The cost page sorts coffee machine jobs into bands, and the diagnosis tells you which band yours belongs in.
Does the technician carry coffee machine parts, or return later?
Brew-unit seals and O-rings, milk tubes and connectors, drip tray and grounds sensors, water filters and descaling agent usually ride in the van, and a model number in the booking improves the odds further. A part made for one model, such as a whole brew unit, a grinder, a pump, a heater or a control board, is ordered after the diagnosis and fitted on a second trip.
