Dishwasher Not Draining in St. Augustine, FL

Why your dishwasher is not draining
Here's how not draining typically presents on a dishwasher: water pools at the bottom of the tub. Usually drain pump, clog, or check-valve. More often than not it traces back to failed drain pump motor. Left unaddressed, laundry backs up fast.
Most likely causes
- A stuck check valve
- Clogged drain pump or filter
- Failed drain pump motor
Quick check — and when it's not DIY
Do this first — it takes two minutes: check whether the unit is sitting level, since a strong tilt alone can stop proper draining. If that doesn't fix it, a failed pump has to be pulled from inside the base, and reassembling it wrong risks a leak that's worse than the original problem.
How we fix it
We start with a full diagnostic on the dishwasher, confirm the real fault, then price it flat. Whatever the brand, we stock the parts that fail most on a dishwasher and fit them on the spot. You approve a flat price up front, and the work is backed by our labour and parts warranty.
