Common Symptoms
What's Your Dishwasher Doing?
Pick the problem you're seeing. Each one links to troubleshooting guidance so you understand the likely cause before we arrive.
Not Cleaning Dishes
Film or food left behind usually means clogged spray arms, a dirty filter, or a weak wash pump. We restore real cleaning power.
Troubleshoot thisWon't Drain
Standing water in the tub? A clogged filter, blocked drain hose, or failed drain pump is the usual cause.
Troubleshoot thisLeaking
Water on the floor under the dishwasher points to a door seal, pump, or inlet-valve leak. We find and stop it.
Troubleshoot thisWon't Fill
No water entering? Often a clogged inlet screen or a bad water inlet valve — a quick, affordable fix.
Troubleshoot thisControl Panel Issues
Buttons not responding or stuck on a cycle? We diagnose the touchpad, control board, or door latch.
Troubleshoot thisNot Drying
Wet dishes at the end? A failed heating element, vent, or rinse-aid issue — we get dishes dry again.
Troubleshoot thisLoud During Cycle
Grinding or humming can mean a worn wash pump or debris in the pump housing. We quiet it down.
Troubleshoot thisNot sure what’s wrong? That’s exactly what we’re here for — we’ll diagnose your dishwasher in person and explain it in plain language.
Honest Guidance
Repair or Replace Your Dishwasher?
Dishwashers are typically worth repairing. Pumps, valves, spray arms, and control boards are common, affordable repairs. We generally only recommend replacement when a dishwasher is both older and needs multiple major repairs at once. For a single failure on a reasonably aged unit, repair is almost always the smarter call.
The smartest call depends on your dishwasher’s age, brand, and the cost of the repair versus replacement. Our calculator walks you through the factors.
Not Sure What to Do?
Use our Repair vs. Replace Calculator, or talk to an appliance expert — no pressure, just a straight answer.
When repair no longer makes financial sense, we can also help you explore replacement options.

ViewQuestions & Answers
Dishwasher Repair FAQ
Straight answers to the questions we hear most about repairing your appliance.
Why are my dishes still dirty after a cycle?
The most common causes are clogged spray arms, a dirty filter, or a weak wash pump. We check all three and restore real cleaning performance — often it's a quick, affordable fix.
My dishwasher won't drain — is that a big repair?
Usually not. A clogged filter or drain hose is often the cause, and the drain pump itself is a standard part. We diagnose it and give you flat-rate pricing before any work begins.
Is a dishwasher worth fixing or should I replace it?
Most single failures — pumps, valves, spray arms, controls — are worth repairing. We only lean toward replacement when an older dishwasher needs multiple major repairs at once.
