Dishwasher not draining
Draining problems are one of the most common dishwasher complaints. Before calling, check and clean the filter at the bottom of the tub and make sure the sink drain is clear. If water still stays in the tub, a technician can inspect the drain path and related components.
Leaking or not starting
A leak can come from the door area, hoses or connections, and should be looked at before it damages cabinets or flooring. If the dishwasher will not start at all, confirm the door is fully latched and the unit has power — if it still does nothing, book a diagnosis.
Poor cleaning results
When dishes are not getting clean, the cause can be as simple as loading or a blocked spray arm, or it can involve water supply or heating issues. Our technician will check the appliance and tell you honestly whether a repair makes sense.
