What the listings say about dishwasher repair in North Dakota

Counted from the 8 profiles above, not from a survey. Everything a business states about itself is reported as a claim.

North Dakota holds 8 listed dishwasher repair businesses, out of 664 nationwide. That ranks 45th of the 50 states with any, level with New Hampshire and behind Florida on 26. Every business listed in North Dakota covers it, so this page and the North Dakota directory hold the same 8 businesses.

Their ratings average 4.6, level with the 4.6 average across all 664 listed nationwide, and 8 of the 8 sit at 4.5 or better. 1 holds a straight 5.0, and none sits below 4.0. Between them they carry 410 reviews, the largest single tally being 150 on Appliance Pros in Fargo. 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 Appliance Pros in Fargo (150 reviews, 5.0), The Repair Man in Fargo (112 reviews, 4.6) and R&A Appliance LLC in Bismarck (78 reviews, 4.5). By rating it is Appliance Pros at 5.0 on 150 reviews, The Repair Man at 4.6 on 112 reviews and R&A Appliance LLC at 4.5 on 78 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 8 state that they are licensed, and all state that they carry insurance. On top of that, 7 show a Better Business Bureau accreditation 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.

4 of the 8 publish a founding year: the longest-established has been trading since 2004, and the median across those that say is 21 years. Fargo holds the most at 2 — 25% of the group — followed by Bismarck on 1, across 7 North Dakota cities with an index page. Between them they name 25 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.

  • Clear each spray-arm jet with a toothpick

    Every 3 months

What dishwasher repair costs in North Dakota

National ranges for parts and labor together, before the $50–$100 diagnostic. Labor tracks local wages and drive time, so metro North Dakota 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.

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 North Dakota — common questions

How many dishwasher repair pros are listed in North Dakota?
8 businesses listed in North Dakota name dishwasher repair among the work they do — 100% of the 8 businesses this directory holds for the state, 45th of the 50 states with any, out of 664 listed nationwide — 1% of them. Fargo accounts for 2 of them. The directory is a sample of the market, not a register of every company trading in North Dakota.
Which dishwasher repair companies are rated highest in North Dakota?
Appliance Pros in Fargo at 5.0 on 150 reviews, The Repair Man in Fargo at 4.6 on 112 reviews, R&A Appliance LLC in Bismarck at 4.5 on 78 reviews — that is the order the list on this page uses. Ratings and review counts come from the businesses' own public profiles and are not verified here.
How much does dishwasher repair cost in North Dakota?
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 North Dakota 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 8 listed here before authorizing anything.
Which North Dakota city has the most dishwasher repair companies?
Fargo, with 2 of the 8 — 25% of the group — followed by Bismarck on 1. 7 North Dakota cities in total have at least one.
Are dishwasher repair technicians licensed in North Dakota?
All 8 listed here state that they are licensed, and all state that they carry insurance. 7 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 North Dakota?
None of the 8 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 North Dakota repair pros service?
The dishwasher pros listed in North Dakota name 8 distinct brands between them. The most widely covered are Frigidaire (8), GE (8), LG (8), Maytag (8), Samsung (8), Whirlpool (8). 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 North Dakota dishwasher repair companies been in business?
4 of the 8 publish one. The longest-established has been trading since 2004, and the median across those that say is 21 years. 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 North Dakota?
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.
