Our Miele dishwasher leaked into the unit below. What should we do first?

Turn off the dishwasher, close the supply valve under the sink, and tell the neighbor and building management. Then book a visit. We find the source, fix it, and give you a written report for the association or the insurer.

Does our Watergate building need to approve the repair in advance?

Some buildings require notice for any contractor, others only for work on shared plumbing. Check with management. We work inside the hours they set and can send our license number ahead of the visit.

Can you service a Miele KF column in a condo without taking it out?

Usually yes. Drains, gaskets, fans, sensors and controls are reached from the front with the panel on. If refrigerant work is needed, our technician is EPA 608 Type I certified and does it in place, which keeps a column out of the elevator.

Miele in Emeryville

Miele in Emeryville kitchens.

Emeryville homes are mostly condos and apartments: the Watergate towers at the marina, and the buildings on the old rail yards and along the Shellmound corridor. In a condo, a Miele dishwasher leak does not stay in your kitchen. It goes through the floor to the unit below, which is why the leak protection in the base of a G Series matters more here than in a house.

A condo kitchen may also have a KF bottom-freezer behind a panel and a Generation cooktop in a short run of counter. Before the visit we sort out parking, the loading entrance and elevator booking. Our technician for this area is based in Benicia. The $99 diagnostic is credited toward the repair, and our license is CSLB #1136642 if your building needs it on file.

Common repairs we do

Common repairs we handle.

Dishwasher leak into the base pan. When the base pan catches water, the Miele stops filling and shows a fault. We trace the leak to a hose, a seal, a door gasket or a cracked sump part, fix it, dry the base, and reset the float so the protection works again.
KF integrated freezer drawer icing. Ice along a freezer drawer means the drawer is not closing fully or the gasket has lost its grip. We check the slides and the seal, clear the ice, and test the defrost heater if the frost keeps coming back.
Generation cooktop showing an error. A cooktop that throws an error or cuts out may have a failed element, a fault in the control, or an overheating cutout where ventilation under the counter is poor. We read the error, test the parts it points to, and check the airflow in the cabinet below.
