Our Samsung fridge stopped cooling overnight. Called Max Fixing and they sent someone out same day. The technician was professional, explained everything clearly, and had us back up and running in under 2 hours. Pricing was fair and transparent. Highly recommend!
Washer was making a horrible noise. The tech arrived on time, diagnosed the issue quickly (worn bearing), and completed the repair efficiently. Very knowledgeable and reasonably priced. Will definitely use them again.
Had an issue with our GE dishwasher not draining. Max Fixing came out the next day, fixed it within an hour, and cleaned up everything. The technician was courteous and explained what caused the problem. Great service!
Our LG dryer stopped heating. Called Max Fixing and they were able to fit us in the same day. The repair was done professionally and the price was exactly what they quoted over the phone. Very satisfied with the service.
Excellent service! Our Whirlpool refrigerator was leaking water. The technician arrived within the scheduled window, quickly identified the problem, and had the parts needed in his truck. Fixed it on the spot. Very pleased!
Called them for our Maytag washer that wouldn't spin. They came out same day, tech was friendly and professional. Fixed the issue and gave us maintenance tips to prevent future problems. Fair pricing too. Would recommend!
Our KitchenAid oven stopped working right before Thanksgiving. Max Fixing saved the day! Same-day service, professional technician, and reasonable rates. We were so relieved. Thank you!
Had them fix our dishwasher last year and they did such a great job we called them again for our fridge. Always reliable, professional, and fair pricing. They're our go-to for all appliance repairs now.
Very responsive and professional. Our freezer stopped working and they came out within hours. The technician was knowledgeable and explained everything clearly. Repair was done quickly and hasn't had any issues since.
Tract homes along Placentia Avenue, built mostly in the late 1960s and 1970s, were plumbed for appliances that no longer exist. A Bosch 500 Series installed in a remodeled kitchen near Bradford Avenue runs on supply lines that are pushing 50 years old — and when the inlet valve starts giving out, it looks like a control board failure. Orange County water averages around 230 ppm hardness. Spray arms calcify quietly. Call us at (323) 870-4790 and we'll usually be there the same day.
Most of the 92870 zip is single-family homes from the 1960s–1980s, with standard under-counter dishwasher cutouts. Older kitchens in the Tuffree and Golden Hills areas sometimes have slightly non-standard cabinet depths that complicate door latch alignment on full-height models. The 92871 side has newer construction — some KitchenAid and LG built-ins that need brand-specific diagnostic tools. Not every repair shop carries those.
Common Dishwasher Issues in Placentia
Mineral Buildup Killing Wash Performance in Older OC Homes
At 230+ ppm, Placentia tap water coats spray arm nozzles and float switch components within 18–24 months. A Bosch that throws E24 or E25 error codes usually has a partially blocked drain pump impeller, not a failed pump. Descaling the inlet valve and clearing the filter basket resolves it 70% of the time without part replacement.
Door Latch Failures on 1970s Kitchen Cabinet Cutouts
Off-spec cabinet openings — common in homes near Craig Regional Park built before 1980 — put lateral stress on the door latch assembly over thousands of cycles. KitchenAid and Samsung models both use a plastic latch bracket that cracks under uneven door pressure. The fix is realigning the door first, then replacing the latch — skipping alignment means the new latch breaks in six months.
Detergent Dispenser Stuck or Not Releasing
Hard water deposits jam the dispenser door spring on LG and Samsung units, especially in homes that skip rinse aid. The detergent dispenser wax motor — the small actuator that pops the door open mid-cycle — burns out when it fights mineral crust repeatedly. Replacing just the motor without cleaning the dispenser housing is a short-term fix.
