Commercial Dishwasher Repair
Restaurant Dishwasher Repair That Keeps Your Kitchen Moving
When the dish machine stops, the whole kitchen feels it. Racks pile up, clean plates run short and your staff ends up washing by hand during service. We're a small, family-owned company based in Superior, and we repair commercial dish machines for restaurants, cafes, bars, schools and other businesses in 21 cities across the Denver Metro Area and Boulder County.
Your technician diagnoses the machine on site and gives you a firm quote before any work begins. The $85 diagnostic visit is credited toward the repair, we use genuine OEM parts, and every repair carries a 90-day parts and labor warranty. We're insured, and same-day service is often available, though we never promise it until we see the schedule.
Equipment We Repair
Commercial Dish Machines We Repair
Most kitchens rely on one machine more than they realize. Here is the equipment we work on every week.
Undercounter Dishwashers
Compact machines common in bars, cafes and smaller kitchens. We repair pumps, heaters, fill and drain problems and door switches.
Door-Type (Upright) Machines
The workhorse of many restaurant dish rooms. We service wash and rinse systems, temperatures, valves and controls.
Conveyor Machines
Higher-volume machines that move racks through wash and rinse zones. We diagnose drive, pump, temperature and fill issues zone by zone.
Glasswashers
Built for bar glassware, where clean, spot-free results matter. We look at rinse temperature or chemical delivery, arms and nozzles, and filling.
Booster Heaters
The booster raises incoming water to final rinse temperature on high-temp machines. We test elements, thermostats and overall output.
High-Temp and Low-Temp Machines
We repair hot-water sanitizing machines and chemical sanitizing machines alike, and we confirm the machine sanitizes the way it was designed to.

Codes & Safety
Dish Machine Sanitizing Standards Under the FDA Food Code
A machine that runs isn't always a machine that sanitizes. These are the points we keep in mind on every commercial visit.
Final Rinse Temperature at the Manifold
High-temp machines need a final sanitizing rinse of at least 180°F at the manifold, or 165°F for stationary-rack single-temperature machines. The rinse shouldn't exceed 194°F.
Sanitizer Concentration on Low-Temp Machines
Chemical sanitizing machines must hold the sanitizer concentration listed on the product label. Test strips are a simple way for staff to check it regularly.
Data Plate and Working Gauges
Dish machines need a readable data plate and temperature gauges that work. If a gauge reads wrong, it's hard to know whether the machine is truly sanitizing.
Deliming for Scale
Denver-area water tends to leave scale, which can coat heating elements, clog nozzles and drag down rinse temperatures. Regular deliming helps the machine keep up.
Before You Call
Quick Checks Before You Call for Dishwasher Service
- Make sure the machine is switched on and the door is fully closed and latched.
- Check that the water supply valve to the machine is open.
- Remove and rinse the strainers and scrap screens if your machine allows it without tools.
- Look at the chemical containers to see whether detergent, rinse aid or sanitizer has run out.
- Note what the temperature gauges read during a cycle and any error codes, so you can share them with your technician.
Have these ready
- Make, model and serial number
- A photo of the data plate
- Any error code or warning light
- What it was doing before it stopped
Never open gas or electrical panels yourself. If you smell gas, shut off the gas supply, leave the building and call your gas utility.
Preventive Maintenance
Preventive Maintenance for Commercial Dish Machines
Most dish machine breakdowns build slowly. Clearing strainers and scrap screens daily, keeping wash and rinse arms clear, and draining and refilling the tank as the manufacturer recommends all go a long way. In general, staff who watch the gauges each shift tend to catch rinse temperature problems early.
Because Denver-area water tends to leave scale, deliming on a regular schedule matters here. A periodic visit lets your technician check temperatures at the manifold, test heater elements and thermostats, look over valves, switches and seals, and confirm chemical delivery, so small issues are handled before they shut down your dish room.

FAQ
Commercial Dishwasher Repair FAQ
Common questions about commercial dishwasher repair.
How much does a service call cost?
The diagnostic visit is $85, and that amount is credited toward the repair if you go ahead. After diagnosing the machine, your technician gives you a firm quote so you can decide before any work starts.
Do you repair both high-temp and low-temp dish machines?
Yes, we work on both hot-water sanitizing and chemical sanitizing machines. That includes undercounter, door-type and conveyor models, glasswashers and booster heaters.
Which brands do you service?
We service the major commercial dish machine brands, including Hobart, Jackson, CMA, Champion, Meiko, Winterhalter and others in the list on this page. If your brand isn't listed, call (720) 285-3573 and ask.
Can you come out the same day?
Same-day service is often available, but it depends on the day's schedule. Call (720) 285-3573 as early as you can and we'll tell you honestly what we can do.
Do you refill or adjust our dish chemicals?
We check that the machine's chemical feed lines and pumps are delivering properly, but the chemical supply itself is handled by your chemical provider. If we find the machine is fine and the product or concentration setting is the issue, we'll let you know so you can call them.
What warranty do you offer on commercial repairs?
Every repair comes with a 90-day parts and labor warranty. We install genuine OEM parts, which helps the repair hold up in a busy kitchen.
Do you also service fryers or hoods?
No, we don't service fryers, kitchen exhaust hoods or fire-suppression systems. Our commercial work focuses on equipment like dish machines, glasswashers and booster heaters. We accept cash, major credit cards, Venmo, Apple Pay and checks.
