A Samsung dishwasher shares most of its basic parts with other dishwashers, but its filter design, drying system, controls and error codes are specific to the brand. We flag companies whose listing or website mentions Samsung and fill in with nearby appliance repair companies so you always have options.
This is an independent directory. We are not affiliated with Samsung, and the technicians listed are independent repair companies, not the manufacturer.

Samsung Dishwasher Lines and Features
What Makes Samsung Dishwasher Repairs Different
Samsung requires the drain hose to have an air gap or high loop, and a unit sitting on its own drain hose is the most common cause of drain trouble after installation. Source: Samsung US - Samsung dishwasher is not draining
A leakage (moisture) sensor under the dishwasher triggers LC or LE codes and keeps the drain pump running until the moisture clears. Source: Samsung US - Samsung dishwasher is leaking or has a leakage error code
What Samsung Says to Check First
- Dishwasher not draining. Samsung says to first clear the sink drain and garbage disposal (removing the disposal cap on a new disposal), then check the drain hose for kinks, crushing and an air gap or high loop. Source: Samsung US - Samsung dishwasher is not draining
- Dishwasher odor. Clean the interior, including the filter, drain area, nozzles and door seal, then check that hot water reaches the unit. Source: Samsung US - Samsung dishwasher has an odor
