HaT

Book a verified appliance repair tech in Canberra

Washing machines, dishwashers, ovens, dryers — ID-verified local techs send sealed offers with locked prices. A photo of the rating plate speeds everything up.

How it works

  1. 1

    Describe it once

    Tell HaT what's going on like you'd tell a mate — photos help. The AI scopes the job properly so you never repeat yourself to five different people.

  2. 2

    Sealed offers come to you

    Verified locals send real offers with locked prices. Bids are sealed — no one sees anyone else's — so what you compare is what they'll actually charge.

  3. 3

    Pay when it's done

    Your payment is held safely by HaT and released when the work is complete. If something isn't right, you can raise a dispute before any money moves.

Appliance repair questions, answered plainly

Is my appliance worth repairing?

Give the brand, model and rough age, and describe the symptom — what it does, what it stopped doing, any error code on the display. The techs who offer will tell you straight when a repair doesn't stack up against replacement; you're never obliged to book.

Why do you keep asking for the rating plate?

The rating plate (the sticker with the model and serial number, usually inside the door or on the back) is how a tech identifies your exact machine and checks parts before quoting. One photo of it can be the difference between a locked offer and a vague "depends what we find".

My oven is hardwired — is that still an appliance repair?

Work on the appliance itself is appliance repair; work on the fixed wiring that feeds it is licensed electrical work. You don't need to know the boundary — describe the fault and HaT routes it to the right trade, including when a job genuinely needs both.

What about my fridge?

Fridges and freezers sit under HaT's fridges and air conditioning trade, because sealed-system work involves refrigerant and needs an ARC licence. Just describe the problem — routing to the right trade is HaT's job, not yours.
