Our Samsung fridge stopped cooling overnight. Called Max Appliance and they sent someone out same day. The technician was professional, explained everything clearly, and had us back up and running in under 2 hours. Pricing was fair and transparent. Highly recommend!
Washer was making a horrible noise. The tech arrived on time, diagnosed the issue quickly (worn bearing), and completed the repair efficiently. Very knowledgeable and reasonably priced. Will definitely use them again.
Had an issue with our GE dishwasher not draining. Max Appliance came out the next day, fixed it within an hour, and cleaned up everything. The technician was courteous and explained what caused the problem. Great service!
Our LG dryer stopped heating. Called Max Appliance and they were able to fit us in the same day. The repair was done professionally and the price was exactly what they quoted over the phone. Very satisfied with the service.

Very responsive and professional. Our freezer stopped working and they came out within hours. The technician was knowledgeable and explained everything clearly. Repair was done quickly and hasn't had any issues since.
San Antonio's municipal water regularly tests above 200 ppm hardness — one of the highest readings in any major Texas city. That calcium doesn't just spot your glasses; it packs solid into spray arm nozzles until a KitchenAid that cleaned fine two years ago starts leaving gritty residue on everything. Alamo Heights and Monte Vista see this constantly. Hard water damage moves quietly until the dishwasher just stops working.
Zip code 78212 covers the Monte Vista historic district, where most homes date to the 1920s and 1930s. Under-counter spaces are tight, cabinetry wasn't built for modern tub depths, and getting to the inlet valve sometimes means a full appliance pull. Over in Castle Hills (78213), 1960s ranch-style homes sit alongside recent remodels — so we work on original GE Nautilus units and brand-new Bosch installs on the same street, all fed by the same hard water supply from the Edwards Aquifer.
Common Dishwasher Issues in San Antonio
Calcified Spray Arms and a Drain Pump That Can't Clear Water
At 200+ ppm, calcium scale blocks spray arm holes in as little as 18 months — sooner without a water softener. The drain pump impeller gets coated at the same rate, which shows up as an inch of standing water after every cycle. Samsung and LG french-door units from the Shavano Park area come in with this exact combination: clogged spray arm on top, semi-seized drain pump below. Both parts usually need replacement at once.
Door Latch Failure Triggering Mid-Cycle Stops
A dishwasher that shuts off mid-cycle and won't restart is almost always a door latch assembly problem. The latch switch signals the control board that the door is sealed — if that signal drops, the machine cuts power as a safety measure. Bosch units in zip 78209 (Terrell Hills) give us this call regularly. The plastic latch bracket fatigues from repeated use, and the micro-switch behind it stops making clean contact.
Detergent Dispenser Stuck — Hard Water Glues It Shut
The detergent dispenser spring latch corrodes and seizes in high-mineral environments. You'll load the tablet, run a full cycle, open the door, and find the pod sitting intact in a closed dispenser. Whirlpool's dispenser door uses a wax motor actuator that mineral deposits can lock in place. Error codes like F8 E4 on newer Whirlpool and Maytag models often trace directly to this — the control board flags a water temperature issue, but the real cause is detergent that never released.

Do you repair Bosch and KitchenAid dishwashers in San Antonio?▼
Yes — Bosch 300 and 500 Series units are probably our most common dishwasher call in San Antonio right now, especially door latch and control board issues. KitchenAid top-controls show up constantly with drain pump and spray arm failures. We also handle Samsung, LG, Whirlpool, and GE — parts stocked for all of them.
What does a dishwasher repair typically cost, and is it worth fixing?▼
Drain pump replacement runs $150-$220 in parts and labor. Control board jobs are higher — $250-$350 depending on the brand. If the unit is under 8 years old, repair almost always beats replacement. Call us at (832) 366-1414 to describe the symptom; we'll tell you upfront if it's worth diagnosing before we send anyone out.
