Customer Reviews from South Pasadena
Real feedback from South Pasadena residents we've helped with dishwasher repairs
"Total home meltdown moment: water sat in the bottom after every cycle like a gross little pool. Clean work, organized tools, and they tested the dishwasher with us before wrapping up. Top Notch LA Appliance Repair had the parts on the truck and knocked it out in one visit. Seriously recommend them if you want the job done right the first time."
Linda S.
Monterey Hills
KitchenAid Dishwasher
"Our place is in South Pasadena—the top rack might as well not existed—water never touched those dishes. Professional vibe but still chill—felt like a neighbor who happens to be really good at this. Top Notch LA Appliance Repair answered fast and got us on the schedule same day. That's the kind of local service you hope still exists."
William P.
Arroyo
Frigidaire Dishwasher
"I don't leave reviews much, but we kept finding puddles in front of the dishwasher after it ran. They double-checked everything before leaving and explained the warranty without rushing out the door. Top Notch LA Appliance Repair texted a tight arrival window and the tech showed up right on time. Already texted a couple friends in South Pasadena; rare to feel this good about a repair call."
Patricia L.

GE Dishwasher
"You could hear fills trying to happen but the tub barely got wet. Top Notch LA Appliance Repair answered fast and got us on the schedule same day. Professional vibe but still chill—felt like a neighbor who happens to be really good at this. That's the kind of local service you hope still exists."
John K.

Whirlpool Dishwasher
"Honestly didn't know who to call for dishwasher in South Pasadena. the touch panel was lit up like a Christmas tree but nothing responded. Clean work, organized tools, and they tested the dishwasher with us before wrapping up. Top Notch LA Appliance Repair had the parts on the truck and knocked it out in one visit. Would 100% call Top Notch again."
Maria H.

LG Dishwasher
"Plastic on the bottom rack was almost too hot to grab, which felt wrong. Communication was solid—quick texts, no ghosting, which matters when your kitchen is a mess. The Top Notch tech quoted the repair before touching anything—super transparent. Already texted a couple friends in South Pasadena; rare to feel this good about a repair call."

Proper maintenance can extend the life of your dishwasher and prevent costly repairs. Here are essential tips from our technicians.
Clean the Filter Regularly
Remove and rinse the filter at the bottom of the dishwasher weekly to prevent food particles from clogging the drain and causing odors. A clean filter ensures optimal washing performance.
Check and Clean Spray Arms
Inspect spray arm holes monthly for clogs from hard water deposits or food debris. Remove arms and clear holes with a toothpick. Clogged spray arms reduce cleaning effectiveness.
Run Hot Water Before Starting
Turn on the kitchen faucet until water runs hot before starting dishwasher to ensure optimal wash temperature from the beginning. This improves cleaning and helps dissolve detergent.
Use the Right Detergent Amount
Follow manufacturer guidelines for detergent quantity. Too much causes excessive suds and residue, too little leaves dishes dirty. Adjust for water hardness in your area.
