Albany is tiny. Do you still route out here for one call?

Yes, regularly. From San Ramon it is about 40 to 45 minutes via I-580 or Highway 24 to I-80, and we route Albany with the Berkeley and Richmond Inner East Bay days. Once you're booked, we text you a window for when the truck will show up. For evenings and weekends, call our after-hours line at (925) 999-4095.

Our dishwasher is a 24-inch compact. Do you carry parts for that size?

Yes. Compact 24-inch is the Albany standard, and the DishDrawer DD24 is built on exactly that footprint. We stock the parts that fail most, drain pumps, lid actuators, and Miele filters and seals, on the truck.

We rent near UC Village. Can you work on our dishwasher?

If it is a Fisher & Paykel, Miele, or Cove, yes, gladly. Most UC Village units are landlord-grade machines we do not carry parts for, and we would rather tell you that on the phone than charge you a visit to say it in person.

Dishwasher Repair in Albany

Dishwasher Repair in Albany.

Albany's kitchens are small, and the dishwashers reflect it. The bungalow stock along the Marin Avenue grid runs compact 24-inch machines fit into kitchens with barely enough clearance to pull the unit for service, and the remodels, Albany has plenty of small remodels going in, lean Fisher & Paykel and Miele. The DishDrawer DD24 slides into that same compact footprint and loads from the top, which is why so many Albany remodels spec it. UC Village housing along Buchanan Street mostly runs landlord-grade machines outside the brands we carry, so our Albany work concentrates in the bungalows and remodeled kitchens.

Tight clearance is the pattern I plan for in Albany more than age or brand. On a bungalow install I allow extra time just to get the unit out far enough to work on it, and I always confirm the model number ahead so I show up with the right compact-size part. On a DishDrawer that means knowing which drawer is down, since the DD24 is two independent drawers, and on a Miele it means having the right G-series pump or seal on the truck before I knock.

What the work looks like

A dishwasher leaking from the pump and sump.

The base of a Whirlpool-family dishwasher, where the circulation pump, sump, and diverter live. A worn pump seal, a cracked sump, or the diverter lets water past and onto the floor.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Fisher & Paykel DishDrawer, flood fault. Water in the base tripping the flood switch, usually a drain pump or a lid seal letting wash water past. We find the source with dye, replace the failed part, and bench-test a full cycle. Common on the newer small remodels.
Miele compact, drain fault. A clogged filter path or a tired drain pump. We clear and test the filter and non-return valve before condemning the pump, and clean the sump while it is open.
Bungalow DishDrawer, lid actuator. The drawer beeps and stops when the lid seal will not clamp. That is the lid actuator wearing out. We test the actuator before replacing it, since a false fault is common.
Compact unit, dishes not drying. Heat side losing performance on the smaller-capacity units, the heater relay on a Miele, the drying assist on a Cove. We verify tank temperature on diagnostic mode before ordering parts.
