How long does it take you to get to Richmond?

We are based in San Ramon, so Richmond is a 40 to 45 minute run up 580 or through Berkeley. We pair it with the Berkeley and Oakland route. You get a written arrival time before we leave the shop.

My LG keeps throwing a drain error. Do I need a new pump?

Not always. Half the time it is the drain hose kinked or routed wrong under the counter, which is a much cheaper fix. We check the routing before we touch the pump.

Should I repair the dishwasher or replace it?

We will be straight about the math. A clogged drain or worn latch is worth fixing. Once you are into a Samsung or LG control board, replacement usually wins. The $75 diagnostic, waived with repair, tells you which one you have.

Dishwasher Repair in Richmond

Dishwasher Repair in Richmond.

Richmond covers 94801, 94804, 94805, and 94806, and the dishwasher work follows the two-tier housing. Through the Annex, the Iron Triangle, and out toward Hilltop the stock is mid-century and older bungalow, running GE, Whirlpool, Maytag, and a long tail of LG and Samsung. Those are workhorse calls. No-drain faults, cracked impellers, worn door latches, OE drain codes. The Point Richmond restorations and the Marina Bay waterfront townhomes are the upscale layer, where Bosch 800 and Benchmark and KitchenAid built-in bring the control-board and base-pan work.

On the mainstream units, the LG and Samsung OE code is half installer error: a kinked drain hose or a high-loop done wrong under the counter. We check the hose routing before we sell a pump, because that is cheaper and often the real cause. On the Bosch built-ins in Marina Bay, the E15 base-pan leak is the common one. We read the code, run diagnostic mode, and replace the recirc pump and check valve as a pair so the unit holds.

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.

LG or Samsung, OE drain code. Kinked drain hose or cracked impeller. We check the under-counter hose routing first, because installer error is the cause about half the time.
Whirlpool or Maytag, no drain. Foreign object in the drain pump impeller. Quick swap once we open the chamber and clear it.
Bosch E15 base-pan leak. Pump seal weeping into the pan, float tripped. We pull the unit, replace the recirc pump and the check valve, and run a full wash on the bench before it goes back under the counter.
Door latch and gasket leak. Front-edge drip from a worn gasket or a tired latch. Common on the older bungalow units. Cheap and worth it when the machine is otherwise sound.
