24/7 emergency dishwasher and glasswasher repairs

When a commercial dishwasher or glasswasher stops mid-service, every minute counts. A machine that will not reach sanitising temperature can compromise a full trading period and, in some cases, your food safety compliance, so we treat a breakdown as priority. Health inspectors expect dishwashers and glasswashers to sanitise reliably, and a failed cycle can put that at risk. Downtime is expensive, from lost covers to spoiled prep, which is why we get a technician to you quickly. Our team is on call around the clock and offers same-day response on most breakdowns across the Hunter, backed by our 24/7 emergency service.

Because we run our own technicians and do not use sub-contractors, the person who answers your call is backed by the team that turns up to fix the machine. We also carry common dishwasher and glasswasher spare parts, so many repairs are done on the first visit. If we do not have the part you need on the van, we will track it down and keep you posted. That means less back and forth, and a faster return to full service for your kitchen.

The commercial dishwashers and glasswashers we repair

From a busy cafe to a club bistro or a hotel kitchen, we repair and service the machines your service depends on, from undercounter glass washer units to passthrough dishwashers, and we can help you compare replacement options from the commercial dishwashers we supply. Our technicians work on:

Undercounter dishwashers and glasswashers
Passthrough and hood-type dishwashers
Conveyor and flight-type dishwashers
Pot, pan and utensil washers
Bar and club glasswashers

We service commercial dishwashers and glasswashers across the brands hospitality venues rely on, and we can source genuine parts for the common makes and models. Whether your machine is a compact undercounter unit or a high-volume passthrough line, our technicians can service it and keep it washing to temperature.

Common faults we fix

Most commercial kitchen dishwasher repair jobs come down to a handful of faults. Tell us what the machine is doing and we will diagnose it safely and get it back into service. Some faults are quick fixes and others need parts, and we will tell you which before we start. We regularly fix:

Machines that will not drain, or are slow to empty
Machines that will not fill, or have low water pressure
Water that will not heat, or will not reach sanitising temperature
Leaks from doors, seals, hoses or pumps
Poor wash and rinse results, spotting or scale build-up
Chemical and rinse-aid dosing problems
Controller, thermostat and cycle faults

For bars and clubs, we also sort cloudy glassware, spotting and glasswashers that will not finish a cycle, so your glasses come out clean and clear for the next round. In a busy bar, a glasswasher that leaves film or spots slows the whole service, so we get it dosing and rinsing correctly again.

Preventative maintenance and the kitchens we look after

The best breakdown is the one that never happens. Alongside repairs, we offer scheduled commercial dishwasher service and maintenance that catches worn seals, blocked jets and heating faults before they threaten your kitchen. Regular servicing also helps control chemical and energy use and gets more life out of the machine you already own. Ask us about a maintenance schedule through our catering equipment servicing and maintenance program.

We look after pubs, clubs, hotels, cafes, restaurants, aged care kitchens and school canteens across the Hunter, and in 2022 we acquired Hunter Catering Maintenance to add to the team that keeps them running. From a single failed machine to a full site under a service schedule, we scale to what your venue needs.

If your machine is near the end of its life, we will tell you straight. Because we handle the full lifecycle from supply to repair, we can give you an honest view on whether a repair or a replacement is the better call, with no pressure either way. We also handle commercial refrigeration and wider catering equipment repairs, so one call can cover the whole kitchen.
