What Commercial Dishwasher Repair Covers
Signs a Dish Machine Needs Service
- Machine trips the breaker or will not power on
- Water not filling or draining from the tank

Have the data plate details ready and ask whether the technician works on your machine type before booking.
If Your Dishwasher Is Leaking
Shut off the dishwasher's water supply during repairs or whenever it is leaking; the valve is usually under the kitchen sink on the branch line that runs to the dishwasher, and it closes by turning clockwise. Source: GE Appliances - Dishwasher Water Shut-Off Location
Before inspecting or working on a dishwasher, unplug it or switch off its circuit breaker. Source: Whirlpool - How to Fix a Leaking Dishwasher
