When an essential appliance like your refrigerator or washing machine breaks down, the stress goes beyond the initial fix. You might worry: will the repair last? Are the replacement parts reliable? Understanding the appliance part warranty offered by your repair service in Toronto and the GTA is crucial for peace of mind.
This guide dives into what you can expect from a repair service warranty, specifically detailing the coverage provided by Everyday Repair for our customers across Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area.
Understanding Appliance Part Warranties from Repair Services
An appliance part warranty from a repair service covers the specific replacement part installed during a repair and the labor associated with replacing that same part if it fails due to defect within a stated period.
This is different from:
- Manufacturer Warranties: These come with a new appliance purchase and cover defects in materials or workmanship of the original product for a set period (often 1 year for parts and labor, though some parts may have longer coverage. They don’t typically cover issues arising after a repair performed by a third party.
- Extended Home Warranty Plans: These are subscription services that cover a broader range of home systems and appliances for breakdowns, often with service fees. They aren’t tied to a specific repair visit like a service warranty is.
A repair service warranty focuses specifically on the quality and reliability of the parts we install and the service we provide on that particular issue.
Everyday Repair’s Appliance Part & Labour Warranty in Toronto & GTA: The Details
At Everyday Repair, we stand behind our work and the quality of the parts we use.
For appliance repairs completed in Toronto, Halton, Peel, York, and Durham Regions, we offer a warranty that covers both the replacement parts installed and the labour for that specific repair.
Warranty Period: Our standard warranty covers both the specific replacement part and the labor to reinstall or fix that same part for a period of 3 months (90 days) from the date of the original repair service.
This is a common standard for appliance repair warranties in the industry.
What’s Covered:
Failure of the specific replacement part installed by Everyday Repair technicians due to a defect in the part itself.
The labour required to replace the same faulty part again within the 3-month warranty period.
Geographic Coverage: Our warranty is valid for services performed within our service area across Toronto and the GTA, including areas like Oakville, Mississauga, Vaughan, Markham, Pickering, and more.
Example: If we replace a faulty drain pump in your washing machine and that same pump fails within 90 days due to a part defect, both the pump replacement and the labor for that second visit are covered under the warranty. This applies to common parts like refrigerator compressors or fans, oven heating elements, or dishwasher pumps.
What Our Warranty Does Not Cover (Exclusions)
While we back our specific repairs, our warranty has standard exclusions common to most repair services:
- New, Unrelated Issues: If a different part fails or a new problem arises that is unrelated to the original repair, it is not covered under the warranty for the initial repair.
- Damage from External Factors: Issues caused by power surges, flooding, fire, accidents, pests, or environmental conditions.
- Misuse, Neglect, or Alterations: Problems resulting from improper use, lack of maintenance, neglect, or repairs or alterations performed by parties other than Everyday Repair after our service visit.
- Cosmetic Parts & Consumables: Items like light bulbs, filters, knobs, handles, dents, or scratches are generally not covered under part failure warranties.
- Issues Present Before Repair: Problems that existed prior to our service visit but were not diagnosed or repaired during that visit.
- Secondary Damages: We warranty the repair itself, not damage to property or contents (e.g., food spoilage from a subsequent fridge failure) resulting from an appliance issue.

FAQs About Appliance Part Warranties
Q: What’s the difference between a part warranty and a labour warranty?
A: A part warranty covers the replacement part itself if it fails due to defect. A labour warranty covers the technician’s time and work to install that part. Everyday Repair’s warranty covers both the specific part we installed and the labour to replace it again if that same part fails within the warranty period.
Q: Does the warranty cover other problems that weren’t part of the original repair?
A: No, the warranty only covers the specific issue and replacement part addressed during the original repair visit. New or unrelated problems require a separate service call.
Q: What if the appliance breaks down again, but it’s a different part?
A: If a different part fails, it is not covered under the warranty for the initial repair. That would be considered a new repair needed for your appliance.
Q: How long does Everyday Repair’s part and labour warranty last in Toronto & GTA?
A: Everyday Repair offers a 3-month (90-day) warranty on both the specific replacement parts installed and the labour for that particular repair.
