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.

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.
Hard water from the Edwards Aquifer runs straight through 78666 — mineral-heavy enough that spray arms and inlet valves clog up faster here than almost anywhere else on the I-35 corridor. GE dishwashers in the older duplexes near Sessom Drive take a beating from that buildup. Mix in Texas State student rentals cycling through tenants, and these machines get run hard and ignored until something finally breaks.
Most of the housing stock near the university — zip 78666, neighborhoods off Hopkins Street and Hunter Road — was built in the 1970s through the early 2000s. Kitchens in those older places often have Frigidaire or Kenmore dishwashers that haven't been touched in years. Newer subdivisions like Blanco Vista off Ranch Road 12 have more current Samsung and Whirlpool units, but even those are fighting the same mineral-laden tap water coming out of every faucet in Hays County.
Common Dishwasher Issues in San Marcos
Spray Arm Clogging from Hard Water Mineral Scale
San Marcos tap water runs around 200+ ppm hardness — that calcium deposits directly into the spray arm nozzles over 12-18 months. The machine runs a full cycle but dishes come out cloudy or still greasy. Frigidaire and GE units here see this constantly. Cleaning helps short-term, but a cracked or warped spray arm needs outright replacement, not just a rinse.
Standing Water After the Cycle — Drain Pump Failure
Water pooling in the bottom of the tub usually means a failed drain pump or a jammed float switch. Whirlpool units in the rental properties off LBJ Drive throw an E24 or F8E2 code when the pump impeller clogs with debris. Left alone, it backs up under the cabinet and causes floor damage before anyone notices.
Detergent Dispenser Door Not Opening Mid-Cycle
Samsung DW-series machines — common in newer Blanco Vista homes — have a plastic dispenser door latch that warps under repeated heat exposure. Dishes run through the full cycle without soap contact. The pod just dissolves loose in the tub after the door finally pops at the wrong time. Replacing the dispenser assembly is the only real fix.
