Common dishwasher problems we fix in Toronto and the GTA
Choose the symptom below. Each card includes quick checks and what we test during a professional diagnostic visit.
Dishwasher not draining, standing water
Common causes include clogged filter, drain hose restriction, air gap issues, drain pump failure, or an installation problem at the sink connection.
- Clean the filter and sump area.
- Confirm the drain hose has a high loop under the sink.
- If connected to a disposer, confirm the knock-out plug is removed.
Dishes still dirty, cloudy, gritty
Poor cleaning often points to spray arm blockage, low wash pressure from a weak circulation pump, filtration issues, or a heating problem.
- Remove and flush spray arms.
- Run hot water at the sink before starting the cycle.
- Use the correct cycle and quality detergent.
Dishwasher leaking water
Leaks can come from the door gasket, inlet hose, drain hose, pump seals, or a leveling issue that pushes water past the door.
- Inspect and clean the door gasket.
- Confirm correct detergent type and quantity.
- Check that the unit is level.
Dishwasher will not start
This usually involves power supply, door latch, control lock mode, touch panel, or control board behavior.
- Confirm breaker and outlet power.
- Check control lock mode and reset procedure.
- Listen for door latch engagement.
Error codes, beeping, stopping mid-cycle
Error codes can be caused by drain faults, heating faults, water inlet issues, float switch problems, or wiring and control faults.
- Record the exact code and the moment it appears.
- Clean filter and confirm water supply is open.
- Try a reset, then test a short cycle.
Cycle takes too long, dishes not drying
This is commonly connected to heating system issues, temperature sensing, rinse aid problems, or water inlet temperature.
- Fill the rinse aid dispenser.
- Run hot water at the sink before starting.
- Confirm heated dry settings and normal cycle use.

Dishwasher Repair - Frequently Asked Questions
These are the most common questions we get about dishwasher repair, installation, and maintenance across Toronto and the GTA.
How much does dishwasher repair cost in Toronto?
Most dishwasher repairs fall between $160 and $380 plus tax, depending on parts, brand, and access. The service call and full diagnostic is $85, and it is waived when you proceed with the repair.
How quickly can you come for dishwasher repair?
Same-day or next-day service is often available depending on your area and our schedule. No-drain and leaking situations are treated as higher priority to help prevent water damage.
Why is my dishwasher not draining?
The most common causes are a clogged filter or sump, blocked drain hose, a jammed drain pump, or a sink connection issue. We inspect the full drain path and test the pump under load to confirm the real failure.
Why are my dishes still dirty after a full cycle?
Poor cleaning is usually caused by weak circulation pressure, clogged spray arms, dirty filters, or low water temperature. We test the circulation motor, heater system, and sensors, and verify proper wash performance.
Is it worth repairing my dishwasher or should I replace it?
In many cases, repair makes sense if the dishwasher is under 10 years old and the quote is less than 50 percent of replacement cost. If the tub is cracked or several major parts fail together, replacement can be the smarter option. We explain it clearly during diagnostics.
Do you handle dishwasher installation and maintenance too?
Yes. We provide dishwasher installation (proper leveling, secure water and drain connections, leak testing) and maintenance (filter service, drain path checks, performance checks) to prevent repeat breakdowns.
Do you use subcontractors or commission-based technicians?
No. All work is completed by Octopus Royal in-house technicians. There are no subcontractors and no commission-based incentives. Pricing is clear, and recommendations are based on what the dishwasher actually needs.
How do I book dishwasher service?
Book online using the contact form or call (647) 286-1327. If you share the model number and the symptoms, we can prepare for the most likely failure points before arriving.
