Getting Ready for the Repair
- The brand, model and serial number from the label on the edge of the door or the side of the tub opening

- What happens during the cycle (no start, no fill, no drain, leaks, dirty or wet dishes)
What Sanford Owners Should Know
Most dishwasher calls in Sanford 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.
Florida's construction licensing guidance says that paid work such as installing a dishwasher connected to drinking water or replacing a water heater requires a licensed contractor, and that a local business tax receipt or certificate of competency may also apply; it does not describe a separate state appliance repair license.

In Florida, you can check a license with the DBPR Verify a License (MyFloridaLicense.com) or report a problem to the Florida Attorney General, Office of Citizen Services / Consumer Protection.
