Dishwasher leaking water in Croydon
A dishwasher that leaves a puddle usually has a worn door seal, a split sump hose, a pump seal on the way out, or an inlet valve that will not shut off properly.

Where we work · Croydon
Covering Croydon, Purley, Thornton Heath, Norbury, Selhurst and Selsdon, including integrated units built into a kitchen run.
What we test
- Door seal and inner door liner inspected along the full run
- Sump and drain hoses checked for splits and loose clips
- Pump housing and seal examined for seepage
- Inlet valve tested to be sure it closes and does not overfill
- Base tray dried and a full cycle run to confirm no return
Safe steps while you wait
Safety first
Switch the dishwasher off at the wall and turn the water supply off before touching anything. Water in the base has usually come from the pump housing or a hose, and finding it means pulling the unit out and tipping it — that is exactly where a DIY check stops being safe.
- 1
Power off and water off
Isolate the machine before you open the door. Standing water and a 13-amp supply in the same base unit is not worth the risk.
- 2
Dry it, then watch
Once the visible water is mopped, a dry piece of kitchen roll under the front edge will show where it reappears first — front, side or underneath.

Tell us what you saw
Whether the leak appears during fill, wash or drain changes the likely cause, so mention it when you book.
Questions we get asked
Can I use it if it only leaks occasionally?
No. Intermittent leaks are usually a seal that only fails under heat or pressure, and the water still reaches the electrics and your flooring.
Do you repair integrated dishwashers?
Yes. Removing the cabinet door and unit is part of the visit and does not change the fixed call-out charge.
Will the repair include a leak test?
Yes. Every leak repair finishes with a full cycle so we can confirm the machine is dry before we leave.
