A Kenmore dishwasher shares most of its basic parts with other dishwashers, but its filter design, drying system, controls and error codes are specific to the brand. We flag companies whose listing or website mentions Kenmore and fill in with nearby appliance repair companies so you always have options.
This is an independent directory. We are not affiliated with Kenmore, and the technicians listed are independent repair companies, not the manufacturer.
Kenmore appliances were sold through Sears for decades, so many owners look for Sears dishwasher repair. The companies here are independent technicians who work on Kenmore and Kenmore Elite dishwashers; they are not Sears.

Fort Worth Water (City of Fort Worth), which supplies Fort Worth, reports hardness of 100-171 mg/L (6-10 grains per gallon) total hardness as CaCO3.
