We repair every major dishwasher brand including Whirlpool, GE, KitchenAid, Bosch, Maytag, and Frigidaire. Whether it’s not draining, not cleaning properly, leaking water, or won’t start, we handle the full range of dishwasher problems.
Hillside homes often deal with hard water issues that affect dishwasher performance. We know how to address mineral buildup, replace worn seals, and adjust settings for local water conditions.
Emergency service is available for water leaks and other urgent problems. We carry genuine OEM parts for faster repairs and stock the most common components that fail in dishwashers. Same-day service means you don’t wait days for parts to arrive.
Most dishwasher repairs in Hillside cost between $150-$350, depending on the problem and parts needed. Simple issues like clogged drains or faulty door latches are on the lower end, while control board or pump replacements cost more.
We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you know the exact cost. There’s a diagnostic fee that gets applied toward your repair if you choose to proceed. If the repair cost approaches the price of a new dishwasher, we’ll let you know so you can make an informed decision.
Emergency service calls have a small additional fee, but the repair pricing stays the same. We don’t inflate prices for urgent situations.
Poor cleaning usually comes from clogged spray arms, dirty filters, or incorrect loading. Food particles and grease build up over time, blocking the holes in spray arms and reducing water pressure.
Hard water in the Hillside area also causes mineral deposits that interfere with cleaning performance. The dishwasher’s filter needs regular cleaning, and many homeowners don’t realize it’s there.
We clean all components, check water temperature and pressure, and adjust settings for your specific water conditions. Sometimes it’s a simple fix like cleaning the filter, other times the wash pump motor needs attention. We’ll show you proper loading techniques and maintenance tips to keep your dishwasher cleaning effectively.
Most dishwasher repairs take 30-60 minutes once we arrive and diagnose the problem. Simple fixes like unclogging drains or replacing door seals are usually done within 30 minutes.
More complex repairs involving control boards, pumps, or motor issues can take up to 90 minutes. We carry common parts on our trucks, so most repairs happen the same day without waiting for parts orders.
If we need to special order a part, we’ll let you know the timeline upfront. We can often provide temporary solutions to keep your dishwasher functional while waiting for specific components.
If your dishwasher is under 7 years old, repair almost always makes financial sense. Even dishwashers up to 10 years old are worth repairing if the problem isn’t too expensive.
We’ll give you honest advice about whether repair makes sense based on the age, condition, and repair cost. If multiple major components are failing or the repair cost exceeds 50% of replacement value, we’ll recommend replacement.
Many dishwashers that seem “dead” just need simple repairs like new door seals, unclogged pumps, or control panel fixes. We’ve saved customers thousands by repairing appliances that other companies wanted to replace.
Door seal problems cause most dishwasher leaks. The rubber gasket around the door wears out over time, especially with hard water conditions common in Hillside. Food particles and soap buildup also prevent proper sealing.
Loose hose connections, cracked tubs, or faulty water inlet valves can also cause leaks. Sometimes the dishwasher isn’t level, which affects how water drains and can cause overflow.
We locate the exact source of the leak and fix it properly. Door seals are usually quick replacements, while internal leaks might need more extensive repair. We’ll also check your installation to make sure everything is properly connected and level.
Yes, we offer same-day emergency service for urgent dishwasher problems like water leaks, electrical issues, or complete breakdowns. We understand that some problems can’t wait until regular business hours.
Emergency service is available evenings and weekends with a small additional fee. We prioritize calls involving water leaks or safety concerns, since these can cause property damage if not addressed quickly.
Call us as soon as you notice the problem. The sooner we can address leaks or electrical issues, the less likely you are to have additional damage or safety concerns. We’ll walk you through any immediate steps to minimize problems until we arrive.
