How long does it take you to get to Richmond?

My DishDrawer keeps throwing a drain fault. 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, and on a Fisher & Paykel, Miele, or Cove the bigger parts usually still pencil out. Once a control board has failed on a builder-grade unit, replacement usually wins. The $99 diagnostic, credited toward the 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, and the calls come from the remodeled kitchens that had a Fisher & Paykel DishDrawer put in. Those are workhorse calls. No-drain faults, cracked impellers, worn door latches. The Point Richmond restorations and the Marina Bay waterfront townhomes are the upscale layer, where Miele G-series and the odd Cove bring the base-pan and drying work.

On the drawer units, a drain fault 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 Miele built-ins in Marina Bay, the waterproof fault is the common one. We read the code, run the service menu, and replace the circulation pump 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.

Fisher & Paykel DishDrawer, drain fault. Kinked drain hose or cracked impeller. We check the under-counter hose routing first, because installer error is the cause about half the time.
Older bungalow unit, no drain. Foreign object in the drain-pump impeller. Quick swap once we open the chamber and clear it.
Miele waterproof fault. Pump seal weeping into the pan, float tripped. We pull the unit, replace the circulation pump, 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.
