A big share of Santa Cruz homes are rentals: student houses near UCSC, long-term rentals in Live Oak and vacation homes in Seabright and Pleasure Point. Dishwashers in those homes get loaded by many different people, and we pull a lot of glass, bottle caps, labels and food out of drain pumps.

Older cottages add another problem. The sink drain, the disposal and the dishwasher often share an old line, and a partial clog there shows up as standing water in the dishwasher.

We service dishwashers in Downtown, the Westside, Seabright, Twin Lakes, Live Oak, Pleasure Point, Prospect Heights and the Mission Street corridor.

Tips for rental owners

Keep the model number and a photo of the dishwasher label in your host notes. It speeds up parts ordering.

A laminated card near the sink about scraping plates and not loading glass jars saves a lot of pump repairs.

Santa Cruz dishwasher calls

Standing water in the bottom

Debris in the pump, a blocked filter, or the shared sink drain backing up.

Broken glass in the pump

The pump impeller jams or chips. We clear it and test, and replace the pump if damaged.

Door gasket leaking

Worn or torn gasket, common in heavy-use rentals.

Not starting

A door latch or float switch.

First steps

Run the sink disposal, then check whether the sink drains quickly. If it does not, the problem may be the drain line rather than the dishwasher.
