Straight answer
KitchenAid dishwashers we do not take.
KitchenAid dishwashers are not a repair we take. Not any model, any year.
It is not a knock on the machines. It is the parts pricing. What a circulation pump, a control board, or a touch panel costs on one of these, set against what the dishwasher sold for new, turns the repair into a bad buy for you more often than not. We would rather tell you that here than charge you $99 to say it in your kitchen.
Everything else from these brands we still fix: refrigerators, ranges, ovens, cooktops, washers, and dryers. We repair dishwashers from every other brand.
That answer does not change by town, so it holds in Martinez the same as anywhere else we run. Call us on the rest of the kitchen and we will be out.

KitchenAid in Martinez
KitchenAid in Martinez kitchens.
Dishwashers are the one KitchenAid category we stepped back from, so our KitchenAid work in Martinez is built-in refrigerators, commercial-style ranges, and wall ovens. Martinez splits into two kitchens for me. Up in the newer subdivisions off Alhambra Valley Road the appliances are builder-installed KitchenAid suites from the 2000s that are now due for their first real repairs.
Both cases are good repair candidates. KitchenAid runs on the Whirlpool group platform, sharing pumps, igniters, and control boards with Whirlpool and Maytag, so parts availability is a non-issue even for fifteen-year-old machines.
We are Bay Area Appliance Repair Service out of San Ramon, CSLB #1136642, EPA Section 608 Universal certified. $99 diagnostic, credited to the repair, written quote first, seven days a week.
What the work looks like
A built-in sealed-system leak repair.
Common repairs we do
What we close on the truck.
- KODE double oven lower cavity dead. A common one on the KODE500 series, the lower oven stops heating while the upper works fine. It is usually the lower bake element or the relay that drives it. I isolate which by measuring at the element and the board connector, so you pay for one part, not two.
- Refrigerator water dispenser dribbling or frozen. KitchenAid French door units in Martinez get two versions of this. In the older homes low water pressure makes the dispenser dribble, and in any home the fill tube in the left door can freeze solid. I check inlet pressure, the water valve, and the door heater circuit, then fix the actual cause instead of just thawing the tube.
- KRFC/KBFN linear-compressor failure. Year-six and seven failure window. Compressor swap with full system recovery.

FAQ
KitchenAid in Martinez questions, answered.
-
How far is Martinez from your San Ramon shop?
About 30 minutes up 680. We fold Martinez into our Diablo Valley days along with Pleasant Hill and Concord, so once you are on the schedule the tech is already working your side of the county, and next-day service is the usual outcome. -
My downtown Martinez kitchen is tight and old. Is that a problem for repair?
It is normal for us. Most repairs happen with the appliance pulled a foot or two out or serviced in place. Repair is usually the friendlier option in an older kitchen, because replacement means matching a modern cabinet cutout to openings that were framed decades ago. -
Do you give a quote before doing the work?
Yes. The $99 diagnostic visit produces a written quote with parts and labor. If you approve, the $99 is credited toward the repair. If you decline, you owe only the diagnostic and you keep the written findings.
