Why your dishwasher is not draining
On the dishwasher: the cycle finishes on time but leaves dishes filmed and the sump full, with a hum from the pump and no flow.
Causes, in the order we check them
- 01A drain pump motor that's seized
- 02A drain hose kinked or blocked somewhere in the run
- 03A control board that isn't signalling the pump at all
- 04A check valve stuck shut
- 05A drain pump or filter clogged with debris
Quick checks worth doing
There's a two-minute check worth doing first: check that the unit is sitting level — a strong tilt alone can stop drainage cold. The measurement worth taking: open the door mid-cycle and check whether there is water in the tub at all, and whether it is hot. If it's still acting up after that, a failed pump sits inside the base, and reassembling it wrong risks a leak worse than the original complaint.
First we test the dishwasher end to end, so you're not paying to swap parts on a guess. Not draining has more than one possible cause, and telling them apart is what the on-site diagnosis is for.
What St. Johns's climate does to a dishwasher
Ask a St. Johns technician what shortens a dishwasher's service life here, and heat and humidity top the list. The region's hard water builds scale on the heating element and spray arms over time, and humidity keeps the door seal damp between cycles. We price St. Johns work knowing those parts need looking at, rather than adding them later as an extra.

Common questions
Answered before you call.
What does the diagnosis involve?
A technician diagnoses a dishwasher that is not draining at component level, confirms the cause by measurement, and walks you through the finding before any part is touched.
Will you tell me if it is not worth fixing?
We will say so. If the failure is one that takes a unit past sensible repair — a failed sealed system on an old cabinet, say — you get that assessment rather than a part you would replace again next year.
Do you guarantee your repairs?
You're covered by our 18-month labor warranty and 90-day parts warranty. If the same fault recurs in that period, the follow-up visit is free.
Are the parts genuine?
We fit OEM parts wherever the repair calls for them. Where a manufacturer part is discontinued we say so, and explain what the alternative is before fitting it.
