It can be a daunting task looking for only the right contractor for your job but also the right contractor for you. We completely understand what you're going through. We know every customer has different desires, different needs and different schedules. We're only here to turn your ideas into reality but to make it a memorable experience every step of the way. Call us right now, no matter where you are in the planning process.

"Quick to schedule me and good quality of work. UPDATE 8/23/22: Our experience with this company will sound outrageous to any decent human being. We hired them to install a range hood in September 2021. They showed up and did a good job installing it for us. Then they suggested we also install a vent cover which they could make it for us for $200. We thought it would be nice to cover the vent so we agreed and paid them to bring it to us later. Then things started to escalate from here. They promised to drop it off on Oct 6, DID NOT show up. Then on Nov 1, my husband contacted them, they promised to drop it off the second day, DID NOT show up. My husband contacted them three times in December (Dec 1, 16, and 17), and they replied on Dec 17 saying that they would bring it on the 24th, DID NOT show up. Contacted them again on Dec 30, said they would come, DID NOT show up. Ever since then, they stopped replying to our messages. We texted them at least once a month, with NO RESPONSES AT ALL. Yesterday (August 23, 2022), I called them and someone picked up. I confronted them and they told me they NEVER came to where I live to do any job! This is completely unprofessional and outrageous. We gave them the benefit of the doubt but they failed us over and over again. They either deliberately lied to us or they intentionally stole from us! It is disgusting! Today is August 23, 2022. we called them and an automated voice said, this number has a caller restriction which prevents us from calling them!!! We tried to be as civilized as we can but this is beyond unacceptable. If this is how they do business with everyone, then they will be out of business in no time! We will expose them on every platform they are on so no one else will fall for their despicable act!"

"We had a couple leaky faucets and some loose electrical fixtures wanted a handyman to come take a look. Dakota was great to talk to, giving us an idea of what it would take to fix our plumbing issues and quickly fixing our electrical issues. He charged a very reasonable price ($30), considering that he was at our house for an hour or so"

"Midea upright freezer failed in July 2024 and damaged all meat in freezer, outside of warranty with purchase in March 2023. Midea referred to Iowa Appliance Repair. I was initially hesitant to use Iowa Appliance Repair due to them charging ~$125 for a diagnostic appointment. After a few months, I finally decided to use Iowa Appliance Repair. I paid the $123.05 and set an appointment. They stated the $123.05 would be applied towards the cost of repair. If I had to reschedule, there would be a reschedule fee. Despite the high diagnosis cost, they wouldn’t give me a specific appointment time; only a 4 hour window. My wife and I have full time jobs. I picked a date my wife was scheduled to be working from home. Unfortunately, she had an emergency client situation and wasn’t able to answer the door when the Iowa Appliance Service Technician came. She tried to communicate with the Technician via text message, but he had already left. I called to reschedule knowing there would be a reschedule fee. To reschedule, I would have to pay the full $123.05 again, and the original $123.05 was gone. I asked if they would apply the first and second service fees towards my repair; the answer was “no, only the second fee”. I’m mostly disappointed that they charge a high service fee that doesn’t apply later if you miss your appointment while not providing a specific service appointment time. Do not recommend using a company that does business the way Iowa Appliance Repair does business."

Dishwasher Installation questions, answered by experts

If your dishwasher keeps filling with water at the bottom but doesn’t fill into the sink, the issue is likely due to a blockage within the dishwasher or drain. Regularly clean your dishwasher filter basket to ensure it’s not clogged with food, and run a vinegar rinse periodically if you have hard water to remove limescale buildup.

You can call your trash company to see if they offer curbside pickup of old appliances. You can also call a local junk removal service or rent a dumpster if you expect to have a lot of trash to dispose of. On the other hand, if your old dishwasher is still in decent working shape, consider donating it or reselling it on a local marketplace.

It's often worth fixing a leaking dishwasher, especially if it's a minor issue like a damaged gasket or clogged filter, which are inexpensive DIY repairs. However, if your dishwasher is over 10 years old or the repair cost approaches half the price of a new unit, replacement might be more cost-effective. 

Repair costs vary by issue, typically from $100 to $500, depending on the parts needed and labor involved.

The correct water temperature for your dishwasher depends on the washing phase. When water enters the machine, it should be around 120 degrees Fahrenheit, but no hotter than 150 degrees. During the wash cycle, the machine will heat the water to between 130 and 140 degrees. If your dishwasher has a sanitizing cycle, the water can reach a temperature of up to 180 degrees.
