Common Dishwasher Issues our technician can repair:

  • Unclean Dishes: If your dishes are not coming out clean after a cycle, it could be due to clogged spray arms, a blocked filter, or a malfunctioning water pump.
  • Leaking: A leaking dishwasher may have a damaged door seal, loose hose connections, or a faulty water inlet valve.
  • Strange Noises: Unusual noises during operation might be caused by a worn-out motor, broken pump, or loose parts.
  • Dishwasher Not Starting: If the dishwasher doesn't start, check for a blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker, a faulty door latch, or a defective control panel.
  • Dishwasher Not Draining: If water is not draining properly from the dishwasher, it could be due to a clogged drain hose or a malfunctioning drain pump.
  • Water not Heating: If the dishwasher is not heating the water, it might be because of a faulty heating element or thermostat.
  • Door Issues: A door that won't close properly could be due to a misaligned door latch or a broken hinge.
  • Foul Odors: Lingering odors can be caused by trapped food particles, a dirty filter, or mold growth inside the dishwasher.
  • Soap Dispenser Problems: The soap dispenser failing to open during the wash cycle might be due to a faulty dispenser door or a clogged dispenser unit.
  • Display or Control Panel Malfunctions: Issues with the display or control panel might be caused by electronic faults, loose connections, or water damage.

Dishwasher was randomly turning itself on and off. However when the service man came it had corrected itself. He did a thorough check but could not find a problem. Dishwasher has been fine since. The serviceman was prompt, friendly and very professional. Yes I would use this company again.

FAQS for Dishwasher Repairs

There are several reasons for poor drainage, such as a clogged drain hose, blocked filter, or a malfunctioning drain pump. Our repairmen can diagnose the issue and recommend the appropriate repair.

Some noise is normal, but loud or unusual sounds might indicate an issue with the motor, pump, or loose parts. A professional inspection can identify the source of the noise and address it.

Leaks can be caused by a damaged door seal, loose hose connections, or a faulty water inlet valve. Immediately turn off the dishwasher, mop up the water, and call to DP Electrical for a repair service to prevent further damage.

A faulty dispenser door or a clogged dispenser unit could be the cause. A technician can examine the dispenser and either repair or replace the defective parts.

While some minor issues can be DIY-repairable, dishwashers involve electrical and plumbing components that can be dangerous if mishandled. It’s generally safer and more effective to hire a professional technician for repairs.

The duration of the repair depends on the specific issue and the availability of replacement parts. Minor problems might be fixed in a single visit, but more complex repairs could take longer.

A dishwasher that doesn’t start may have a blown fuse, tripped circuit breaker, a faulty door latch, or a defective control panel. An expert technician can identify and fix the underlying problem.

Residue on dishes might be due to hard water deposits, clogged spray arms, or a malfunctioning detergent dispenser. Cleaning the dishwasher and using a rinse aid can often help, but a technician can inspect for any underlying issues.

It’s recommended to have regular maintenance once a year to ensure your dishwasher functions optimally and to address any potential issues before they become major problems.

If the cost of repair is disproportionately high or your dishwasher is very old, it might be more cost-effective to invest in a new, energy-efficient dishwasher. A technician can help you make an informed decision based on the condition of your current appliance.

At DP Electric, we aim to provide transparent and affordable pricing for our customers. Our dishwasher repair &  service comes with a flat call-out fee of $180, which includes both repairs and service. This means you won’t be surprised by any hidden charges, and you can rest assured that the total cost is covered by this upfront fee.

Our technicians aim to arrive at your location within 24 to 48 hours of booking an appointment. We are committed to offering same-day service whenever possible, ensuring that your kitchen appliances are up and running as quickly as possible.

It depends on factors like repair cost, age, and overall condition. If the repair cost is significantly lower than a new dishwasher and the appliance is still within its lifespan, repairing may be more economical. Our technicians can assess and provide tailored recommendations to help you decide whether to repair or replace.

Proper maintenance of your dishwasher is essential to ensure its optimal performance and longevity. Here are some helpful tips to maintain your dishwasher:

  • Regular Cleaning
  • Scrape Off Food Residue
  • Use the Right Detergent
  • Run Hot Water First
  • Load Dishes Properly
  • Check Seals and Gaskets
  • Clean the Spray Arms
  • Run a Vinegar Wash
  • Check for Leaks
  • Professional Maintenance

The duration of a dishwasher repair can vary depending on the nature of the issue. In many cases, our skilled technicians can diagnose and resolve common problems during the first visit, which typically takes about 1 to 2 hours. However, for more complex issues or if replacement parts are required, the repair process may take longer.

Contact us as early as possible in the day to schedule a same-day appointment, and we’ll do our best to accommodate your request and get your dishwasher back in working order without delay.

Absolutely. Our technicians at DP Electric carry a comprehensive inventory of common dishwasher parts onboard to facilitate quick repairs. While we aim to cover most issues, the availability of specific parts may vary. In the rare event we don’t have a required part, we’ll promptly order it to ensure a prompt resolution to your dishwasher’s repair needs.

It is recommended to use dishwasher tablets that are specifically designed for your dishwasher model. Different dishwashers may have varying requirements when it comes to detergent compatibility, and using the right tablet ensures optimal cleaning performance.
