When your dishwasher stops working, everything in your kitchen grinds to a halt. You’re back to scrubbing plates by hand, watching food pile up, and dealing with the mess that comes with a broken appliance.
We fix the problem so you can get back to your routine. Whether it’s a dishwasher that won’t drain, isn’t cleaning properly, or has started leaking all over your floor, we’ll diagnose the issue quickly and get it running like it should.
You’ll have your time back, your kitchen will function normally again, and you won’t have to worry about the same problem happening next week.
Fast Action Appliance has been serving Lowell families and businesses when their appliances break down. We’re not a big corporate chain – we’re local technicians who live and work in this community.
We know Lowell’s neighborhoods, from Downtown to Pawtucketville to the Highlands. We understand that when your dishwasher breaks, you need someone who can show up quickly, diagnose the problem accurately, and fix it right the first time.
Our team has seen every dishwasher problem you can imagine, from simple clogs to complex pump failures. We stock our trucks with the parts that break most often, so we can usually complete your repair in one visit.
First, you call us and describe what’s happening with your dishwasher. We’ll ask a few questions to understand the problem and schedule a time that works for you – often the same day.
Our technician arrives with a fully stocked truck and diagnostic tools. We’ll inspect your dishwasher, test its components, and explain exactly what’s wrong and what it’ll cost to fix before we start any work.
Once you approve the repair, we get to work. Most dishwasher repairs are completed within an hour or two. We’ll test everything to make sure it’s working properly, clean up our work area, and show you how to avoid similar problems in the future.

We handle every type of dishwasher problem you’re likely to encounter. Leaking dishwashers are common in Lowell homes, especially in older neighborhoods where appliances work harder due to mineral-heavy water. We’ll find the source of the leak and fix it properly.
Drainage issues are another frequent problem we see. When your dishwasher won’t drain, it’s usually a clogged filter, blocked drain hose, or faulty pump. We carry replacement parts for all major brands and can usually resolve drainage problems quickly.
If your dishes aren’t getting clean, the problem could be anything from a worn wash arm to a failing motor. We’ll test each component systematically to find the real cause, not just guess and hope for the best.
Most dishwasher repairs in Lowell range from $150 to $400, depending on the problem and parts needed. Simple issues like clogged filters or loose connections are on the lower end, while motor or pump replacements cost more.
We always provide a clear estimate before starting any work. You’ll know exactly what the repair costs upfront – no surprises or hidden fees. If the repair cost approaches the price of a new dishwasher, we’ll let you know so you can make an informed decision.
Our service call fee is applied toward the repair cost if you choose to proceed with the work.
Most dishwasher repairs take between 1-2 hours to complete. Simple problems like replacing a door seal or unclogging a drain can be done in 30-45 minutes.
More complex repairs, like replacing a wash pump or control board, might take up to 2 hours. We carry common replacement parts in our trucks, so we can usually finish your repair in one visit without having to order parts and come back later.
If we do need to special-order a part, we’ll explain the timeline upfront and work with you to minimize the inconvenience.
Yes, we service all major dishwasher brands including Whirlpool, GE, Maytag, KitchenAid, Bosch, LG, Samsung, and Frigidaire. We also work on high-end brands like Thermador, Viking, and Miele.
Our technicians are trained on both older and newer dishwasher models, including smart dishwashers with digital controls. Whether your dishwasher is 5 years old or 15 years old, we have the experience and parts to get it working again.
If you have an unusual brand or very old model, we’ll let you know upfront if we can service it and help you find the right solution.
Yes, we offer same-day service for most dishwasher repairs in Lowell when you call before 2 PM. We understand that a broken dishwasher disrupts your entire kitchen routine, especially if you have a busy household.
Our trucks are stocked with the most common dishwasher parts, which allows us to complete most repairs immediately rather than scheduling a return visit. We also offer emergency repair service for urgent situations like major leaks that could cause water damage.
Same-day availability depends on our schedule and the complexity of your repair, but we’ll always work to accommodate your needs as quickly as possible.
First, turn off your dishwasher and clean up any standing water to prevent damage to your floors or cabinets. Check if the leak is coming from the door seal, the bottom of the unit, or from underneath.
Don’t run the dishwasher again until the leak is repaired – this could cause more water damage or make the problem worse. If there’s a lot of water, you might need to turn off the water supply to the dishwasher.
Call us right away for emergency repair service. Dishwasher leaks can damage flooring, cabinets, and even cause mold problems if not addressed quickly. We can usually identify and fix the source of the leak the same day.
Generally, if your dishwasher is less than 7 years old and the repair cost is less than half the price of a new unit, repair makes financial sense. For dishwashers 7-10 years old, it depends on the specific problem and how well the unit has been maintained.
We’ll give you an honest assessment of your dishwasher’s condition and expected lifespan after the repair. If multiple components are failing or if the repair cost is high relative to the dishwasher’s value, we’ll recommend replacement instead.
Our goal is to help you make the most cost-effective decision for your situation, not to sell you unnecessary repairs.
