Dishwasher Repair
Dishwasher trouble? We fix them the same day where we can, across Pinal and Maricopa County, and you get the price before anyone picks up a screwdriver.
What we see most on dishwashers
Gritty dishes are usually the filter or the spray arm, not the pump. Our water runs 16 to 28 grains here, which is very hard, so the little holes in the spray arms scale shut and the arm stops reaching the top rack. Standing water in the bottom is a drain problem, often the air gap (the little cap next to the faucet) or a kinked hose under the sink.
Symptoms worth calling about
Any of these on a dishwasher is worth a look. Several are cheap early and expensive once something else has been damaged.
- Standing water left in the bottom
- Dishes coming out dirty or gritty
- Leaking from the door
- Not starting or not filling
- A latch that will not hold
- A burning or plastic smell

What fails most often on a dishwasher here in Arizona?
Gritty dishes are usually the filter or the spray arm, not the pump. Our water runs 16 to 28 grains here, which is very hard, so the little holes in the spray arms scale shut and the arm stops reaching the top rack.

Anything worth checking myself before I book someone?
Twist out the filter in the bottom and rinse it. Then hold the spray arms up to the light and see if the holes are clear. Poke them out with a bit of wire. If that does not sort it, call us and we will come and look at it properly.
-
What does a dishwasher repair usually run?
Figure $50 to $100 for the diagnostic call and $150 to $600 for a typical repair with parts. You get a flat rate before anyone starts, and that is the number you pay however long it ends up taking.
-
Is a dishwasher this age worth fixing?
Two things decide it: how old it is, and what the fix costs. Past halfway through its life with a repair over half the price of new, replace it. Young machine, one failed part, fix it every time. Our tech will tell you which one you have, including when the honest answer is not to spend the money with us.
-
Do you work on commercial dishwashers?
Not today. We are a residential shop, so restaurant and commercial equipment is outside what we take on. Better you hear that now than after waiting in for a visit we would have to turn down.
