Water sat in the bottom of the machine no matter how many cycles we ran back to back. Drain pump had a shard of glass lodged inside, cleared it out and confirmed everything drains properly now.

A dishwasher that leaves everything cloudy, pools water at the bottom, or won't seal shut anymore rarely means it's time to replace it. We track down the actual part causing it, usually within one visit.
Whatever sits in your kitchen, we've likely repaired one just like it.

A short breakdown of the likely cause behind each symptom.
Stars mark how urgent it usually isA puddle at the bottom after every cycle finishes. Usually a clogged drain pump or a kinked drain hose, the most common reasons water doesn't fully clear.
A gritty residue left on glasses and plates even with fresh detergent. A clogged spray arm or a filter overdue for a clean is behind most cases like this.
Nothing happens when you press start, no lights, no sound. Often a door latch that isn't fully engaging, since most models won't run unless it reads as closed.
A harsh grinding sound partway through the cycle. Almost always something small caught in the chopper blade near the pump, not a failed motor.
Water escaping around the door seal during the wash. Usually a gasket that's compressed and hardened with age, losing its ability to seal.
Everything comes out clean but still noticeably wet at the end. Often a heating element or vent fan issue, sometimes a rinse aid dispenser that isn't releasing.
Still Not Sure What's Wrong?
Call for a real diagnosis instead of guessing, most jobs wrap up the same visit.
Genuine parts and hands-on experience with every one of these.

A handful of dishwasher issues come down to something you can check yourself in a couple of minutes, no tools required.
Clean The Bottom Filter
Most models have a removable filter under the lower rack. A clogged one is the top reason for cloudy dishes and standing water.
Check The Drain Hose For Kinks
Look under the sink where the drain hose connects and make sure it isn't bent or pinched.
Make Sure Nothing Blocks The Spray Arms
Tall pots or pans can stop the arms from spinning freely. Give them a spin by hand to check they move.
Confirm The Door Latches Fully
Most dishwashers won't run unless the door reads as closed. Check nothing is obstructing it.
Run The Hot Water Tap First
Running the kitchen sink until the water goes hot before starting a cycle helps the dishwasher heat up faster.
Check The Breaker Or Power Cord
Confirm the outlet or breaker feeding the dishwasher hasn't tripped, especially after a storm.
If none of these fix it, the issue is likely something internal that needs a proper look. Book a visit and we'll track it down.
