When water is still inside after the programme
Describe the visible water level, the displayed status and whether the machine has finished or stopped part-way through. Mention any recent sink, waste-pipe or kitchen work. The engineer needs to consider the appliance and its installation together; a symptom described as not draining should not automatically be treated as a failed pump. Do not remove lower panels or tilt an integrated machine.
When the cycle ends but the wash result changes
Explain what is different: food remains on dishes, items feel cold, a film appears on glassware or the drying result has deteriorated. Note whether every rack is affected and whether the change started suddenly. If you consulted the handbook or changed a normal user setting, include that information. We can then distinguish your reported result from a programme that never reaches its finishing stages.
Prepare the model and fault details
Tell us if the dishwasher is freestanding, fully integrated or semi-integrated. The model label is often around the edge of the door.
- Bosch E-Nr and the exact text or code on the display.
- Whether the cycle ends normally, stops early or runs continuously.
- Water level or wash-result observations, with no dismantling.
- Fully integrated, semi-integrated or freestanding fitting and any recent plumbing work.
Look for the E-Nr and FD numbers on the rating plate. The exact E-Nr helps distinguish similar-looking models.

Use an accessible label or appliance paperwork. Leave fitted units, heavy appliances and electrical covers in place. If you cannot reach the label safely, tell the office. Include any displayed message exactly as shown and describe what happened before the fault, without running repeated tests.
Access to the appliance in UB2 postcode area
Give the house or flat number, full postcode and the best contact for the visit. Mention stairs, lift or concierge arrangements, controlled parking and any restrictions on reaching the appliance. Tell us whether it is fitted behind a kitchen door, stacked or in a narrow cupboard.
For a tenant's or business appliance, identify who can authorise the work and who will provide access. The office checks these arrangements before agreeing an appointment.

If you are considering a replacement
A replacement dishwasher must work with the opening, furniture front, plinth and existing services. The nominal width alone does not establish compatibility, so send both model numbers before a fitting is agreed.

Dishwasher repair questions
Does water in the base always mean the same fault?
No. The location and stage matter: water in the wash compartment, a leak onto the floor and a message during filling are not interchangeable observations. Tell us exactly what you can see safely and when it appeared.
Can the furniture door affect the visit?
Yes. The office should know that the dishwasher has a fitted kitchen front and whether the door opens freely. Leave the furniture door and plinth attached unless the engineer specifically arranges otherwise.
Charges, scope and confirming a visit
We review the model, address and work required, explain applicable charges and confirm availability before agreeing a visit. Sending an enquiry does not take payment, reserve an appointment or guarantee a completed repair. Parts availability and the appliance's condition affect the options; further parts or work are discussed before you decide.
UKCDA is an independent repair business. Brand names identify appliances and do not imply manufacturer approval. If a manufacturer guarantee or service plan may cover the appliance, check its arrangements before requesting a chargeable visit.
