- Dishwasher leaking. LG says most leaks come from installation, detergent or upkeep, so check that the unit is level and the door gasket is clean before looking at connections. Source: LG USA Support - LG Dishwasher: How to Fix Common Leaking Issues

Around Sugar Land
City of Sugar Land, which supplies Sugar Land, reports hardness of 35-280 ppm for the city's Main water system; ranges differ by system. Hard water leaves spots and film on glasses and builds up on dishwasher spray arms and inlet screens, which is worth mentioning when you book a repair. Source: Water Quality - City of Sugar Land
Texas has no separate appliance repair license; under the Plumbing License Law, appliance dealers and their employees may install and service appliances (other than water heaters) without a plumbing license when hooking up to existing openings with a code-approved appliance connector, while other gas or water piping work generally requires a plumbing license.
