Common Dishwasher Problems in Falls Church

Many Falls Church customers call us because of one of these five common problems. You may already see one of them in your home right now.

The Dishwasher Is Not Cleaning Dishes Well

If your dishes still have food on them, it could be a problem with the spray arms, water pressure, wash cycle, or detergent dispenser. A dishwasher that does not clean properly is frustrating to deal with every day. Our team can identify the cause of the issue and fix it.

The Dishwasher Is Not Draining

If you notice standing water at the bottom of your dishwasher after a cycle, it could mean there’s a blockage or a glitch somewhere. This is usually due to a clogged filter, drain hose, or a pump issue. Don’t worry, our technicians are ready to help clear up the problem and get your dishwasher’s water flowing smoothly again.

The Dishwasher Is Leaking

Water on the kitchen floor by your dishwasher signals a leak, possibly from a worn door seal, loose hose, or pump. We’ll find and fix the source to prevent damage.

Dishes Come Out Cloudy or Wet

If dishes are coming out with white spots or still wet after the drying cycle, there may be a problem with the rinse aid dispenser, heating element, or water temperature. We can diagnose the cause and help restore clean, dry results.

The Door Latch Is Not Working

A dishwasher with a broken door latch will not start or will stop in the middle of a cycle. This is a common issue that can often be repaired quickly. Our technicians will inspect the latch and replace it if needed.

The Dishwasher Makes Unusual Noises

If you notice grinding, rattling, or banging sounds during a wash cycle, it typically means there’s something stuck in the pump or spray arm, or perhaps an internal part has worn out. Don’t worry, we’ll take a careful look and get to the bottom of the noise to fix it.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Dishwasher Repair in Falls Church, VA

Why are my dishes not getting clean?

This is often caused by blocked spray arms, low water pressure, a clogged filter, or a problem with the detergent dispenser. A technician can pinpoint the cause.

Why is there water sitting at the bottom of my dishwasher?

Standing water usually means a clogged drain, a blocked filter, or a pump that is not working correctly.

Why is my dishwasher leaking onto the floor?

Leaks are often caused by a worn door gasket, a loose or cracked hose, or a pump seal issue. It is best to stop using the dishwasher until it is repaired to avoid floor or cabinet damage.

Cloudy dishes are often related to hard water, a clogged rinse aid dispenser, or water temperature issues.

Grinding or rattling sounds often mean something is stuck in the pump or spray arm, or that a moving part is worn and needs attention.
