Water left in the bottom
Dirty water sits in the tub after the cycle ends.
Built-in dishwashers
Built in under the counter and running every night: we find out why the dishwasher stopped cleaning, draining or filling, and agree on the repair with you first.
Symptoms
Six problems that usually send people to the phone.
Dirty water sits in the tub after the cycle ends.
Water seeps out under the door or appears under the cabinet.
Food stays stuck to plates and the top rack barely gets wet.
A white film or grit on glassware after every load.
You hear a hum at the start, but no water comes in.
Everything comes out wet, with more water on cup bottoms than usual.
Typical causes
Food, seeds and broken glass end up in the sump and stop the water from leaving.
How we check it
We clear the sump, test the drain pump and check the hose and the disposal connection.
A hardened gasket lets water past the door; a stuck inlet valve can overfill or not fill at all.
How we check it
We inspect the gasket and tub edge, then test the inlet valve and float switch.
Without strong spray, detergent never reaches the top rack.
How we check it
We check the spray arm holes, the wash pump motor and the water temperature at the start of the cycle.

Questions
Better to stop. A small leak under a cabinet can soak the subfloor long before you see it.
Usually a dirty filter or food trapped in the sump or drain hose. Cleaning the filter often fixes it; if the smell stays, the drain needs a closer look.
Yes, including dishwashers hidden behind a cabinet panel. Mention it when you book.
Mineral deposits, or water that never gets hot enough. Rinse aid and a cleaning cycle help; if they don't, the heater or inlet valve needs testing.
