You shouldn’t have to hand-wash dishes for weeks while waiting for a repair appointment. When we’re done, your dishwasher runs like it should – cleaning completely, draining properly, and staying quiet during cycles.
No more soggy dishes sitting in standing water. No more rewashing everything by hand. No more wondering if that weird grinding noise means your machine is about to flood your kitchen floor.
Your dishwasher works the way it’s supposed to work. You get back to your routine without the stress of a broken appliance hanging over your head.
Fast Action Appliance understands the unique challenges of appliance repair in Malden homes. From century-old houses with quirky plumbing to modern condos with space constraints, we’ve seen it all.
Edward and our team have built our reputation on honest service and transparent pricing. No surprise fees, no inflated parts costs, no pressure tactics to sell you something you don’t need.
We serve homeowners, landlords, and local businesses throughout Malden because we understand that when your appliances break down, life doesn’t stop. That’s why we focus on same-day service and getting the job done right the first time.
First, you call and describe what’s happening with your dishwasher. We schedule a time that works for you – often the same day for urgent repairs.
Our technician arrives with the most common parts already in the truck. We diagnose the problem quickly and explain exactly what’s wrong and what it’ll cost to fix. No technical jargon, no runaround – just straight talk about your options.
Most dishwasher repairs are completed within an hour or two of our arrival. If we need a special part, we know where to get it locally and won’t charge you extra for the trip. You only pay for parts and labor – that’s it.

We handle every type of dishwasher problem Malden homeowners face. Leaking water that’s damaging your kitchen floor, dishes that come out dirty or still soaking wet, strange grinding or rattling noises during cycles, and drainage issues that leave standing water in the bottom.
Our service covers all major dishwasher brands – from older models that have been running for decades to the newest smart dishwashers with digital controls. We work on residential units in homes and apartments, plus commercial dishwashers for local restaurants and businesses.
Malden’s older homes often present unique installation challenges, from tight spaces to older plumbing connections. We’re familiar with these situations and come prepared with solutions that work specifically for New England homes and their quirks.
Most dishwasher repairs in Malden cost between $150-$400, depending on the problem and parts needed. We charge a straightforward diagnostic fee if you decide not to repair, but that fee is waived completely if you go ahead with the work.
You’ll know the exact cost before any work begins. We don’t mark up parts prices or add surprise fees. Labor and parts – that’s what you pay for, nothing else.
The most common repairs we see are drain pump replacements, door seal fixes, and control panel issues. These typically run $200-$300 including parts and labor.
Yes, we offer same-day dishwasher repair service in Malden for most problems. We keep common parts in our trucks and can complete most repairs within two hours of arrival.
Emergency situations get priority – like dishwashers that are actively leaking and causing water damage, or commercial units that restaurants need running immediately.
If we need to order a special part, we’ll let you know upfront how long it will take. For most dishwasher brands, we can source parts locally within a day or two at most.
If your dishwasher is less than 8 years old, repair almost always makes more financial sense. For units over 10 years old, it depends on the specific problem and the overall condition of the machine.
We’ll give you an honest assessment of whether repair makes sense for your situation. If the repair cost approaches 50% of a new dishwasher’s price, replacement might be the better choice.
Major repairs like motor replacements on older units usually aren’t worth it. But common issues like door seals, pumps, or control boards are typically cost-effective to fix, even on older dishwashers.
We repair all major dishwasher brands including GE, Whirlpool, Maytag, Samsung, LG, Bosch, KitchenAid, and Frigidaire. We also work on high-end brands like Miele, Viking, and Thermador.
Our experience includes older models that other repair services won’t touch, plus the newest smart dishwashers with WiFi connectivity and digital controls.
We maintain relationships with local parts suppliers to ensure we can get components for both common and discontinued models. If your dishwasher brand still exists, we can likely fix it.
Poor cleaning usually comes from one of three issues: clogged spray arms, a failing wash pump, or problems with the water temperature or pressure coming into the unit.
Clogged spray arms are the most common culprit – food particles and mineral buildup block the holes where water sprays out. This is usually a quick fix that doesn’t require expensive parts.
Wash pump problems are more serious but still repairable. If your water heater isn’t delivering hot enough water (120°F minimum), even a perfectly functioning dishwasher won’t clean effectively.
Yes, we provide emergency commercial dishwasher repair for Malden restaurants, cafes, and other food service businesses. We understand that a broken dishwasher can shut down your operation.
We prioritize commercial emergency calls and often can respond within a few hours during business days. Our technicians are familiar with commercial-grade dishwashers and health department requirements.
For restaurants and food service businesses, we also offer preventive maintenance contracts to help avoid emergency breakdowns during busy periods. Regular maintenance keeps your dishwasher running reliably when you need it most.
