Honest advice

Repair or replace your dishwasher?

Tom will tell you straight, even if it means he doesn’t get the job.

Usually worth fixing

Pumps, latches, seals, controls

Repairs like these usually get a dishwasher running again for far less than a new one.

Call Tom first

Older dishwasher, expensive part

If the dishwasher is older and the part is costly, call or text Tom before booking. He’ll tell you honestly whether it’s worth it. Phone advice is free.

Sometimes it’s not worth it

Big repair on an old dishwasher

If the repair would cost close to a new dishwasher, Tom will tell you before any work starts so you can decide.

“If a repair isn’t worth the money, I’ll tell you, even if it means I don’t get the job.”Tom · Owner, Tomtecki Appliance Repair

Dishwasher FAQ

Dishwasher repair questions.

How much does dishwasher repair cost in San Antonio?

The diagnostic visit is $79, and it’s free when you go ahead with any repair. Dishwasher labor is $145 to $195 depending on what failed and how long the repair takes. Up to 80% of dishwasher repairs fall in that range; some cost more. Parts are extra and quoted before any work starts. Senior, military and first-time discounts apply to labor only. See the full price list.

Why won’t my dishwasher drain?

It’s often a problem with the drain pump or a clog in the drain path. Tom confirms the real cause at the diagnostic visit and quotes the repair before any work starts.

Why is my dishwasher leaking?

A leak can come from the door seal, a hose or the pump. Tom finds the source at the diagnostic visit and quotes the repair before any work starts.

Why aren’t my dishes getting clean?

It can be the wash motor, the spray arms or the water supply. Tom checks them at the diagnostic visit so you know exactly what’s wrong.

Is my old dishwasher worth repairing?

Often it is, but not always. If a repair would cost close to a new dishwasher, Tom will tell you before any work starts. You can also call or text him first; phone advice is free.

What are your hours, and how soon can Tom come out?

Appointments are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and we can usually come the same or next business day. Calls and texts are answered Monday to Friday, 8am to 8pm, at (210) 209-3029.

Is the dishwasher repair guaranteed?

Yes. Every repair comes with a 60-day limited warranty on labor and all parts, and OEM parts carry a 6-month warranty through the manufacturer. The warranty covers the same issue we repaired. It doesn’t cover a different part that fails later. For example, if we replace your ice maker and the fan motor goes out later, that’s a new repair.

Do you install garbage disposals?

Yes. Our special is $329 for a new OEM KitchenAid 1/2 HP disposal with cord, professionally installed, with the old one removed. See garbage disposal replacement.
