Your dishwasher works like it should. No more rewashing supposedly “clean” dishes or mopping up mystery puddles from underneath your machine. No more running multiple cycles hoping this time will be different.
We fix the actual problem, not just the symptoms. When we’re done, your dishes come out spotless every time, your kitchen floor stays dry, and you can trust your dishwasher to handle whatever you throw at it. Most repairs complete the same day, so you’re back to normal by dinner.
Fast Action Appliance has been fixing dishwashers throughout Middlesex County for years. We know Boxborough homeowners expect quality work and straight answers, which is exactly what we deliver.
Our technicians carry the most common dishwasher parts on every truck, so most repairs happen during our first visit. We serve the entire area from Littleton to Stow, Acton to Harvard, and we understand the local market. When your dishwasher breaks down, you need someone who shows up prepared and gets it right the first time.
First, we diagnose the actual problem using professional testing equipment. No guessing, no trial and error. We identify exactly what’s causing your dishwasher to leak, leave dishes dirty, or refuse to drain properly.
Next, we explain what we found and provide upfront pricing before any work begins. You decide if the repair makes sense or if replacement is the better option. Most of our technicians carry common parts like pumps, door seals, and heating elements right on the truck.
Finally, we complete the repair and test everything to make sure it works properly. You get a 90-day labor warranty and manufacturer warranty on parts, so you’re covered if anything goes wrong.

We handle all major dishwasher brands including Whirlpool, GE, Samsung, LG, KitchenAid, and high-end models like Bosch and Viking. From basic models to smart dishwashers with all the bells and whistles.
Common repairs include fixing drainage problems, replacing faulty pumps, repairing door seals that cause leaks, and cleaning clogged spray arms that leave dishes dirty. We also handle heating element replacements, control board issues, and detergent dispenser problems. In Boxborough’s hard water conditions, we frequently service dishwashers with mineral buildup that affects performance.
Emergency service is available for situations like flooding or complete breakdowns, especially important during holiday entertaining season when your dishwasher failure can derail dinner plans.
Dirty dishes usually come from clogged spray arms, worn wash pump motors, or blocked filters that prevent proper water circulation. Hard water common in this area causes mineral deposits that restrict water flow through the spray holes.
We start by checking the spray arms for clogs and testing water pressure throughout the system. Often, a thorough cleaning and descaling solves the problem immediately. If the wash pump motor is failing, we’ll replace it with a manufacturer part that’s designed to handle local water conditions.
The key is identifying whether it’s a maintenance issue or actual component failure. Our diagnostic process determines the root cause so you get a lasting fix, not a temporary Band-Aid.
Most dishwasher repairs range from $150 to $400 depending on the problem and parts needed. Simple fixes like replacing door seals or cleaning clogged components typically cost $150-250, while pump or heating element replacements run $250-400.
We provide exact pricing after diagnosing the problem, so you know the total cost before we start any work. No hidden fees or surprise charges when the job is done. This upfront approach helps you decide whether repair makes financial sense compared to replacement.
Complex repairs requiring special-order parts may cost more, but we’ll explain all options and let you make the call. Most homeowners find repair much more affordable than buying a new dishwasher, especially for machines less than eight years old.
Yes, we offer same-day service for most dishwasher problems when you call before 2 PM. Our technicians carry inventory for about 80% of common repairs, allowing us to complete most jobs during the first visit.
Emergency situations like flooding or complete breakdowns get priority scheduling, often within 2-4 hours of your call. We understand that dishwasher failures can disrupt your entire household routine, especially with families who depend on the convenience.
For repairs requiring special-order parts, we’ll schedule a follow-up visit once components arrive. But the majority of dishwasher problems involve standard parts we keep stocked, so same-day completion is realistic for most service calls.
All repairs include a 90-day labor warranty, and replacement parts carry manufacturer warranties ranging from 6 months to 2 years depending on the component. If the same problem happens again during the warranty period, we return at no charge to make it right.
This warranty covers our workmanship and ensures your satisfaction with the repair. We stand behind our work because we use quality parts and experienced technicians who know how to install them correctly.
The manufacturer warranty on parts provides additional protection beyond our labor warranty. For example, if a new pump motor fails after 8 months, the manufacturer covers the replacement part even though our labor warranty has expired.
We service all major dishwasher brands including Whirlpool, GE, Samsung, LG, Frigidaire, Maytag, and KitchenAid. We also handle high-end brands like Sub-Zero, Viking, Bosch, and Miele that require specialized knowledge and parts.
Our technicians receive ongoing manufacturer training to stay current with specific repair procedures for each brand. Whether you have a basic model or a smart dishwasher with Wi-Fi connectivity, we have the experience to diagnose and fix it properly.
Even discontinued models can usually be repaired if parts are available. We maintain relationships with parts suppliers who stock components for older dishwashers, so age isn’t necessarily a barrier to getting your machine working again.
Turn off the dishwasher immediately and check if water is actively pooling on your floor. If there’s significant flooding, turn off the water supply valve under your sink to prevent further damage to your flooring or cabinets.
Most leaks come from worn door seals, loose connections, or cracked components inside the machine. Don’t ignore small leaks thinking they’ll resolve themselves – they typically get worse and can cause expensive water damage to your kitchen.
Call for emergency service if the leak is substantial or if you’re concerned about water damage. We can usually diagnose and repair leak sources quickly, preventing costly secondary damage to your home. Small drips might seem minor, but they often indicate problems that will worsen without professional attention.
