Dishwasher not draining San Antonio homeowners notice, or dishes coming out dirty — here’s how to think through whether it’s worth fixing.
3 Things That Decide This
- What failed. Spray arm, door latch, drain pump — all cheap fixes.
- Bexar County’s hard water. Cloudy dishes are often mineral buildup, not a mechanical fault — a dishwasher hard water issue, much cheaper than people assume.
- Age and repeat repairs. Past 10 years with a prior fix, lean toward replacing.
Ballpark Pricing: $105–$335 for repairs. New units run $450–$900.
Bottom Line: Under 10 years, repair under half of replacement — fix it.
