A dishwasher full of standing water is usually a clog rather than a dead machine — a blocked filter, a fouled drain pump, a plugged air gap, or a disposal knockout that was never removed. We clear the real obstruction first and only quote parts when the diagnosis supports it.
Diagnostic is $95, credited toward the repair when approved. Many drain calls resolve with a cleaning of the sump, filter and air gap rather than a part — we tell you which it is before charging for parts.
Based in Lemon Grove, our core service area runs about twelve miles out — a tight ring on purpose, because it is what lets us hold a same-day window and arrive when we say we will. Larger jobs further out are welcome: call and we will tell you honestly whether the trip makes sense.

Yes. Clearing the obstruction is the repair, and we verify a complete drain cycle before finishing.
Yes. A plugged disposal line or missing knockout stops the dishwasher draining and sends water back into the sink.
