Customer Reviews
The night before Thanksgiving, with 47 guests expected, my dishwasher caused a flood in the basement. I didn’t know who else to call, but remembered Roto-Rooter’s 24/7 service. You offered to come that night, but I chose 8 a.m. Thanksgiving morning. By 8:15, your tech was on the way. He quickly found the issue and had our drains flowing again in an hour. He was kind, knowledgeable, and efficient. I’ll always call Roto-Rooter from now on! Clementine T

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does dishwasher installtion take?
If the house is already equipped with a dishwasher, the process of installing a new one in its place is usually efficient and can be completed in an hour or less. New water supply hoses should be used to ensure against a hose failure that could cause a leak or flood. Direct electrical connections vs. a plug-in connection could complicate the installation and may require the help of an electrician.
Do you call a plumber to fix a dishwasher?
No, you should call an appliance repair technician to fix a broken dishwasher unless the problem is associated with the plumbing itself.
What causes clogged dishwashers?
Dishwasher clogs are usually kitchen sink drain clogs that prevent the dishwasher from draining quickly and effectively. However, some dishwasher clogs are caused by dirty dishwasher filters in the bottom of the dishwasher. These typically twist out and can be rinsed out in the sink.
How to properly clean my dishwasher?
It is always best to consult the cleaning guidelines from your dishwasher's manufacturer. Some dishwashers have an interior made of plastic while others are made of stainless steel. Please note that bleach tablets work great on plastic interiors, but chlorine bleach may damage a stainless steel interior. Consult the manufacturer's guidelines on the use of natural cleaning products like vinegar. In general terms, you should clean the dishwasher's twist-out filter (usually located on the bottom of the dishwasher) with a simple rinse to remove food particles. Remove the silverware baskets and clean them thoroughly in the sink too.
