How Restaurant Dish Machine Repairs Differ
When to Call About a Commercial Dishwasher
- Machine will not reach final-rinse temperature
- Machine trips the breaker or will not power on
- Leaks under the machine or from the doors
- Rinse arms spraying weakly or unevenly
Ask any company you call which commercial brands and machine types it services, such as undercounter, door-type or conveyor units.

What North Charleston Owners Should Know
Most dishwasher calls in North Charleston come down to the same handful of parts: the filter and drain path, the drain pump, the inlet valve, the door latch and the heating parts.
South Carolina does not issue a license specific to appliance repair; mechanical work such as plumbing, heating, air conditioning and refrigeration is licensed by the Contractor's Licensing Board for commercial-scale jobs and by the Residential Builders Commission for residential HVAC and plumbing. Source: S.C. Code Title 40, Chapter 11 (Contractors), South Carolina Legislature
In South Carolina, you can check a license with the SC LLR License Lookup or report a problem to the South Carolina Department of Consumer Affairs.
Questions to Ask a North Charleston Technician
