What the listings say about dishwasher repair in Colorado

Counted from the 18 profiles above, not from a survey. Everything a business states about itself is reported as a claim.

Colorado holds 18 listed dishwasher repair businesses, out of 664 nationwide. That ranks 8th of the 50 states with any, level with California and behind Florida on 26. They are 18 of the 24 businesses listed in Colorado — 75% of the state directory.

Their ratings average 4.7, against 4.6 across all 664 listed nationwide, and 18 of the 18 sit at 4.5 or better. 1 holds a straight 5.0, and none sits below 4.0. Between them they carry 3,663 reviews, the largest single tally being 2,200 on Best Service Company Appliance Repair in Denver. Rating and review volume are what the businesses' own public profiles report — treat a high average on six reviews differently from the same average on six hundred.

By review volume the group is led by Best Service Company Appliance Repair in Denver (2,200 reviews, 4.7), Universal Repair in Denver (272 reviews, 4.8) and Mile High Appliance Service in Denver (198 reviews, 4.9). By rating it is Appliance Expert at 5.0 on 180 reviews, Mile High Appliance Service at 4.9 on 198 reviews and Certainty Appliance Repair LLC at 4.9 on 95 reviews. Those are two different questions and they rarely give the same answer — volume tells you a company has been doing this at scale, a high average on a handful of reviews tells you much less.

All 18 state that they are licensed, and all state that they carry insurance. On top of that, 10 show a Better Business Bureau accreditation, 3 state a factory-authorised or factory-trained credential and 1 publishes a parts-and-labor warranty term in the profiles. None advertises round-the-clock emergency cover, but 1 advertises same-day service. All of that is self-stated in the listing, not verified here: ask for the license number and a current certificate of insurance, and for anything that opens a sealed refrigerant system ask to see federal EPA Section 608 certification, which is required in all fifty states.

7 of the 18 publish a founding year: the longest-established has been trading since 1960, and the median across those that say is 30 years. Denver holds the most at 8 — 44% of the group — followed by Colorado Springs on 3, across 7 Colorado cities with an index page. Between them they name 35 distinct towns, suburbs and neighborhoods in their stated service areas, so coverage reaches well past the cities listed here — give your address when you call rather than assuming.

What Colorado technicians find most often

The 5 most common dishwasher faults, and whether each is homeowner work or a job for a licensed technician.

All 8 faults
  • Dishes come out with food residue still on them

    Homeowner fix

    Blocked spray-arm jets, a filter that has never been cleaned, or inlet water below 120°F. Rarely the wash pump.

    Step-by-step: Dishwasher Not Cleaning
  • Standing water in the bottom at the end of a cycle

    Homeowner fix

    A clogged filter or sump, a kinked drain hose, a blocked air gap at the sink, or a failed drain pump — in that order of likelihood.

    Step-by-step: Dishwasher Not Draining
  • Water seeping from the bottom of the door

    Technician

    A hardened or displaced door gasket, or a door that has dropped out of square on worn hinges.

    Step-by-step: Dishwasher Leaking
  • Water under the cabinet with no visible door leak

    Technician

    The wash pump shaft seal, or a loose hose clamp under the tub. Usually spotted first as a swollen cabinet toe kick.

    Step-by-step: Dishwasher Leaking
  • Fills but the wash motor never runs

    Technician

    The door latch switch, the thermal fuse on the control board, or the board itself.

Try these before you book a Colorado technician

12 published dishwasher guides. A diagnostic fee is $50–$100 before any work starts, so half an hour with a flashlight is worth spending.

Keep the next call from happening

Ask the technician to walk you through these while they are on site — every one of them prevents a fault in the list above.

  • Remove and rinse the bottom filter

    Monthly

    Prevents: Poor cleaning, drainage faults, and odour — the three most common complaints.

  • Clear each spray-arm jet with a toothpick

    Every 3 months

    Prevents: The top rack coming out dirty while the bottom is clean.

  • Run a hot empty cycle with dishwasher cleaner or vinegar

    Monthly

    Prevents: Grease film and scale on the heating element and sump.

What dishwasher repair costs in Colorado

National ranges for parts and labor together, before the $50–$100 diagnostic. Labor tracks local wages and drive time, so metro Colorado sits toward the top of each range and rural calls toward the bottom, while the part costs about the same anywhere. Nothing here is a quote.

Full cost breakdown →
Typical dishwasher repair jobs with national cost ranges.
RepairParts + labor
Filter, sump, and spray-arm clean-outOften just the diagnostic; ask to be shown how so you can repeat it.$80–$160
Door gasket replacementCheap part, fiddly fit — worth having done properly.$130–$260
Drain pumpHave the sump checked for glass first.$150–$300
Water inlet valveSymptom is a machine that fills slowly or floods.$150–$300
Door latch or lock assemblyThe most common no-start cause.$130–$280
Heating elementDishes wet at the end of a cycle is the tell.$180–$350

9–10 years, the shortest expected life of any major kitchen appliance. Built-in units in hard-water areas trend to the low end unless scale is managed. When replacing beats repairing covers the 4 cases where the maths turns, in full.

Dishwasher repair in Colorado — common questions

How many dishwasher repair pros are listed in Colorado?
18 businesses listed in Colorado name dishwasher repair among the work they do — 75% of the 24 businesses this directory holds for the state, 8th of the 50 states with any, out of 664 listed nationwide — 3% of them. Denver accounts for 8 of them. The directory is a sample of the market, not a register of every company trading in Colorado.
Which dishwasher repair companies are rated highest in Colorado?
Appliance Expert in Wheat Ridge at 5.0 on 180 reviews, Mile High Appliance Service in Denver at 4.9 on 198 reviews, Certainty Appliance Repair LLC in Arvada at 4.9 on 95 reviews — that is the order the list on this page uses. The most-reviewed is different: Best Service Company Appliance Repair in Denver, with 2,200 reviews at 4.7. Read both — a 5.0 on nine reviews and a 4.6 on four hundred are not the same claim.
How much does dishwasher repair cost in Colorado?
Expect $150–$300 for a common dishwasher repair, parts and labor together, on top of a $50–$100 diagnostic fee that most companies credit against the work if you go ahead. Those are national bands, not Colorado quotes: labor rates track local wages and drive time, so a dense metro sits at the top of each range and a rural call at the bottom, while the part itself costs about the same anywhere. Get written estimates from two or three of the 18 listed here before authorizing anything.
Which Colorado city has the most dishwasher repair companies?
Denver, with 8 of the 18 — 44% of the group — followed by Colorado Springs on 3. 7 Colorado cities in total have at least one.
Are dishwasher repair technicians licensed in Colorado?
All 18 listed here state that they are licensed, and all state that they carry insurance. 10 also show a Better Business Bureau accreditation. Licensing for appliance repair is set state by state and sometimes by city or county, so the reliable check is the paperwork: ask which license the company works under, get the number, and confirm it with the issuing authority. Two requirements are national rather than local — sealed refrigerant work needs federal EPA Section 608 certification, and gas work needs a technician qualified for gas appliances.
Can I get same-day or emergency dishwasher repair in Colorado?
None of the 18 listed here advertises round-the-clock emergency cover, though 1 advertises same-day service. Same-day appointments for common faults are still routine in the trade. Call early in the day and ask directly — a technician who already has the part on the van can often fit you in.
Which dishwasher brands do Colorado repair pros service?
The dishwasher pros listed in Colorado name 24 distinct brands between them. The most widely covered are Frigidaire (17), Maytag (17), Samsung (17), Whirlpool (17), GE (16), LG (16). Bosch, Miele and Thermador dishwashers use different sump and pump architecture from mainstream US models, and their parts are typically ordered rather than stocked. Confirm brand coverage on the phone so the first visit is not purely a diagnosis.
How long have Colorado dishwasher repair companies been in business?
7 of the 18 publish one. The longest-established has been trading since 1960, and the median across those that say is 30 years. 1 publishes a parts-and-labor warranty term in the listing. Use it as one signal among several: what matters more is whether the technician has opened your platform before, and whether the warranty term is written on the invoice.
Should I repair or replace my dishwasher?
Apply the 50% rule. A new dishwasher averages $700 in the US and lasts about 10 years, so a repair quote over roughly $350 on a unit past 7 years old is usually money better spent on a replacement. Below that line, with life left on the clock, repair almost always wins. Ask for parts and labor as separate figures — it is normally the part, not the hours, that pushes a quote past the threshold.
What should I have ready before calling a dishwasher technician in Colorado?
Model number — the tag is on the tub rim behind the door. Whether it fills, whether it washes, whether it drains. Naming which stage fails halves the diagnosis. Any error code or flashing light pattern. Having those three answers ready is what turns a diagnose-then-return-visit into a single trip. Worth knowing before you call: 1 of the 18 listed in Colorado also offer appliance sales, which can be worth bundling into the same visit.
