Mineral content in Fort Bend County water is the recurring theme in Richmond dishwasher calls. Scale narrows spray arm holes, coats the heating element and stiffens the drain check valve, which shows up as dishes that come out gritty and a tub that will not fully drain.
We repair built-in and portable dishwashers across Richmond β drain pumps, wash pumps, spray arms, inlet valves, float switches, door gaskets, latches and control boards. Where hard water is the underlying cause we point it out, because descaling and a rinse aid do more than another part swap. Schedule a visit or call us directly.

Door latch alignment first, then the control board and thermal fuse. Many units simply do not sense that the door is closed.
