Quick Maintenance Tips
Check the filter
A dirty filter can cause poor cleaning and even drainage issues.
Spray arms matter
Clogged spray arm holes reduce wash pressure and leave dishes dirty.
Use rinse aid
Helps drying performance and reduces spotting, especially on plastics.
Dishwasher Repair FAQ
Why is my dishwasher not draining?
The most common causes are a clogged filter, a restriction in the drain hose/disposer connection, or a failing drain pump. Diagnosis confirms the exact cause.
My dishwasher runs but dishes are still dirty — what’s usually wrong?
Often it’s wash circulation (motor), low water fill, blocked spray arms, or a clogged filter. I test fill and circulation so we fix the root cause.
Is a leaking dishwasher an emergency?
Leaks can damage flooring and cabinets quickly. If you can, stop using it and schedule service. If the leak is active, shut off the dishwasher’s water supply valve until we can look at it.
Do you service Bosch and KitchenAid?
Yes — Bosch, KitchenAid, Whirlpool, GE, Samsung, LG, Frigidaire, and most major brands.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes — completed repairs include a 6-month labor warranty. Any manufacturer parts coverage is honored per their terms.
