My dishwasher has a small, intermittent leak coming from somewhere. I tried finding the leak myself with no luck.

Getting a technician to step in my home is $120 with no guarantee that they can fix it. If they can get parts, I pay for them too… plus possibly extra labor. Then I would end up with a repaired, 8 year old dishwasher that will likely have to be replaced in 5 – 10 years anyway.

A new dishwasher is $600.
