From dual DishDrawer dishwashers to flexible induction cooktops, Fisher & Paykel builds appliances worth keeping. We are an independent repair shop serving Littleton and the Southwest Denver foothills.
This is a brand people get attached to for good reason.
Fisher & Paykel took a different path than most appliance makers. The DishDrawer split the dishwasher into two independent, self-contained drawer units, each with its own wash motor, water valve, and control board. That modular thinking runs through the whole lineup, which is exactly why these machines are so worth fixing: when one drawer or one module fails, the rest of the appliance is usually sound. Replacing a $1,600 double DishDrawer over a $60 wash pump makes no sense once you understand how it is built.
Their ranges, ovens, and induction cooktops follow the same philosophy of clean, serviceable design. Owners tend to keep them for a decade or more, and the components that do eventually wear are the same ones on every brand, motors, seals, valves, igniters, and control boards, just packaged more thoughtfully. Our job is to diagnose which module is actually at fault so you replace the part, not the appliance.
The DishDrawer is the appliance we get called about most, and after years of servicing them we know where they fail. The single most common issue is a leak from the perished lid seal or the drawer's motor-body gasket, which the dry Front Range climate ages faster than the coastal air these were designed for. A wet floor or an F1 flood-sensor fault almost always traces back to a seal, not a catastrophe.
The other frequent culprits are the wash motor and the drain pump, both accessible modules, and control-board faults that throw drawer-specific error codes. Because each drawer is independent, a top-drawer failure while the bottom works perfectly is normal and completely repairable.
If you are seeing any of these, we have almost certainly repaired it before:
Littleton sits at about 5,350 feet, and it matters for gas cooking.
Fisher & Paykel gas ranges and cooktops leave the factory tuned for a richer air-fuel mix than we have here. At Front Range altitude the same burners run leaner, so a flame that would be perfect at sea level can lift, flutter, or glow yellow in a Littleton kitchen. The fix is proper burner, igniter, and regulator calibration, sometimes correct high-altitude orifices, not a parts swap. It is the kind of adjustment a technician who works at elevation every day catches on the first visit.
Straightforward, and priced honestly from the start.
Call (720) 903-2603, answered 24/7, or use our online scheduling page. Tell us the model and what it is doing, so we arrive with the likely parts on the van.
The $89 diagnostic service-call fee covers a full inspection and error-code readout, and it is credited toward the repair when you go ahead.
You get a firm price after we know the real fault. Any figure we quote by phone is a starting estimate; the final price is set on-site.
We fit OEM-quality, factory-specified replacement parts and test the appliance through a full cycle before we leave.
We are an independent repair company, not authorized or certified by Fisher & Paykel. That means we answer only to you: no upsell scripts, and we will always tell you when a repair is not worth the cost.
We diagnose Fisher & Paykel by module, the exact drawer, board, motor, or valve at fault, so you replace a component, not a whole appliance.
We stock OEM-quality parts for common DishDrawer seals, wash motors, and igniters, which cuts down on return visits.
Based right here, we cover Littleton and the Southwest Denver foothills daily, so you are not waiting a week for a regional dispatch.

Littleton Appliance Repair is an independent shop that services Fisher & Paykel DishDrawer dishwashers, ranges, ovens, cooktops, and refrigerators throughout Littleton and the Southwest Denver foothills. We have repaired the brand since 2014. Call (720) 903-2603 to book; the line is answered 24/7.
The most common cause is a worn lid seal or drawer gasket, which Colorado's dry climate ages faster than average, often triggering an F1 flood-sensor fault that shuts the drawer down. Because each DishDrawer drawer is a self-contained module, the leak is usually a low-cost seal replacement rather than a reason to buy a new dishwasher.
Usually yes. Fisher & Paykel builds modular, serviceable appliances, so a single failed part, a wash motor, seal, valve, or control board, rarely means the whole unit is done. A $89 diagnostic tells you exactly which module is at fault, and repairing one component is far cheaper than replacing a machine that is otherwise sound.
FAQ
Anything else — call any hour, a real person answers.
No, and we are upfront about it. We are an independent repair company, not authorized or factory-certified by Fisher & Paykel. Our advantage is that we work for you, not a manufacturer's warranty desk, using OEM-quality, factory-specified parts and giving honest advice on whether a repair makes sense.
Yes, this is one of the most common calls we get. Each drawer has its own motor, water valve, and control board, so a single dead drawer while the other runs normally points to a fault isolated to that unit. We diagnose the specific drawer and replace only the failed module.
At Littleton's elevation of about 5,350 feet, gas burners run leaner than at sea level, so factory settings can leave the flame yellow, lifting, or clicking without igniting. The fix is proper burner, igniter, and regulator calibration for altitude, and occasionally high-altitude orifices, an adjustment we handle routinely because we work at elevation every day.
Yes. We service Fisher & Paykel induction cooktops for faults like error codes, a zone that won't heat, pan-detection problems, and cooling-fan failures. These are typically traced to a specific power or control board rather than the whole cooktop.

Our built-in Sub-Zero was keeping the freezer fine but the upper fridge zone was sitting around 55. Turned out to be the dual-evaporator setup, exactly what the tech guessed on the phone. Brian had the sealed system diagnosed the first visit, ordered the part, and had us back to normal within the week. He didn't try to sell us a new unit like the last place did.
One of the dual-stack burners on our Wolf range would click and click but never light. He mentioned it's common up here because the burners need to be calibrated for the altitude, which no one had ever told us. Relit perfectly after and he adjusted the others while he was at it.
Fixed our Sub-Zero the same week we called. Fair price, no upsell.
Our dual-zone wine cabinet had drifted so the bottom zone wouldn't hold temp and there was condensation collecting on the glass. They diagnosed it quickly but the part had to come from the manufacturer and took about four days, so we were without it for most of a week. Once it arrived the fix was solid and both zones are holding right where they should. Worth the wait, just be ready for the parts delay on these.
Miele dishwasher wouldn't drain, standing water in the bottom every cycle. Bad drain pump. In and out in about an hour and he cleaned out the filter housing that was part of the problem too.
The door gasket on our 15-year-old Sub-Zero had gotten brittle and it was sweating around the seal. New OEM gasket and it seals like new again. Appreciated that they used the factory part instead of some universal thing.
Thermador wall oven quit heating right before we were hosting. Called in the morning and they got someone out that same afternoon. Bad igniter. He had the part on the truck and we still made our dinner.
Ice maker in our Sub-Zero was making cloudy hollow cubes and barely any of them. He flushed the system, replaced a valve, and now it actually keeps up when we have people over. Nice guy, wore booties in the house without being asked.
Solid work on our Bosch dishwasher, the drain pump had failed. The only thing is the $89 service call fee felt a little steep before I knew they credit it toward the repair. Once I proceeded it came off the bill, so no real complaint, just wish I'd understood that up front.
Our Viking freezer was building up a wall of frost and not defrosting on its own. Turned out to be the defrost heater. Fixed it and explained what was going on so I understood why it happened.
Two burners on our Wolf cooktop wouldn't spark. Tech recalibrated them for the elevation and swapped the igniters. Works better than it has in years honestly.
Warm upper zone on our Sub-Zero, classic apparently. They knew exactly what it was, ordered the evaporator part, and came back to install it a couple days later. Honest and easy to deal with the whole way through.
Not many people around here will even touch a Gaggenau. These guys did, got the control board sorted, and were straight with me about the cost of the part on a unit this expensive.
Miele steam oven throwing an error and shutting off mid-cook. The tech was great and clearly knew the unit, but he ran about 40 minutes behind the window they gave me and I had to shuffle some things around. Fixed it in one visit though and it's been perfect since, so I'd still call them again.
Had them out for our built-in outdoor grill that wasn't lighting evenly. Didn't expect them to do outdoor units but they did and dialed it in for the altitude. Grilling season saved.
Quick, clean, and they answered when I called at 9pm the night before. Dishwasher's draining again.
This was a big one, the sealed system on our Sub-Zero failed and that's a job a lot of shops won't take on. They did it right, used factory-spec parts, and stood behind the work. Given it's a $12k built-in I'm glad I found someone who actually knew these inside and out instead of just replacing the whole fridge.
Wine fridge kept fogging up on the door and the temp was bouncing around. Fixed same visit and no more condensation.
