If your Kenmore dishwasher has stopped draining, stopped cleaning or started showing an error, the technician you call should know the model line. We flag companies whose listing or website mentions Kenmore and fill in with nearby appliance repair companies so you always have options.
Independent listings only: Dishwasher Repairs is not affiliated with or endorsed by Kenmore. If your dishwasher is still under manufacturer coverage, contact Kenmore directly.
Kenmore dishwashers were made for Sears by several manufacturers over the years, so the model number matters more than the badge. Independent technicians can look up the parts from it.

Local Notes for Galveston
Most dishwasher calls in Galveston come down to the same handful of parts: the filter and drain path, the drain pump, the inlet valve, the door latch and the heating parts.
Texas has no separate appliance repair license; under the Plumbing License Law, appliance dealers and their employees may install and service appliances (other than water heaters) without a plumbing license when hooking up to existing openings with a code-approved appliance connector, while other gas or water piping work generally requires a plumbing license. Source: Plumbing License Law, Tex. Occ. Code ch. 1301, §1301.053 (Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners)
In Texas, you can check a license with the Texas plumbing Public License Search or report a problem to the Texas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
