What moves it
Why two of the same job cost different amounts
These apply at the same time and in both directions. Which of them is true of your kitchen is what the on-site diagnostic settles.
-
How far along the path the blockage is
Filter housing, sump, hose, air gap, disposer knockout. They run cheapest to most involved in roughly that order, and the diagnosis follows the path rather than opening the machine first.
-
Whether a disposer was fitted recently
The single commonest cause of a dishwasher that has never drained since a kitchen change is a new disposer whose inlet plug was never knocked out. It is a five-minute fix and it is checked early for that reason.
-
Pump or blockage
A drain pump that hums and moves nothing is usually obstructed rather than failed. It is cleared and tested before it is replaced.
-
What has been through it
Glass, seeds, labels and grease behave differently in a sump, and it changes how long the clearing takes. Say what happened if you know.

from $145 Dishwasher drain & filter repair
Water standing in the bottom at the end of a cycle, or a machine that stops part-way. This is the one appliance on the site that tells you what is wrong — write the code down before you clear it — and the answer is very often something you can see with the filter in your hand.
- The code read and recorded before anything is cleared
- Filter, sump, hose and disposal checked in that order
- A full cycle run and the drain watched before we leave

About Bertazzoni dishwasher drain & filter repair cost
The code that names this repair
These machines publish a real error table, which almost nothing else on this site does. F2 is "inability to discharge water" — a machine that will not drain — and the maker's own instruction with it is to check the discharge hose and the filters. That is the same order this repair runs in, and it is worth saying that our page and the maker's manual agree, because plenty of sites publish a meaning for a code nobody documented.
Before you book
Take the filter out, wash it, and clear the sump underneath it by hand. It is designed to be removed without tools and a real share of these calls end there. If water sits in the bottom after that, it is worth a visit.
What is included
The whole drain path checked in order, the filter housing and sump cleared, the part where there is one, the labor, and a full cycle run and watched to a dry tub. Exact cost is confirmed after an on-site diagnostic.

Questions about bertazzoni dishwasher drain & filter repair cost
There is water in the bottom after every cycle. Is that a pump?
Often not. A small amount of standing water is normal by design; a full inch is a drain restriction, and the filter and sump are the first place it lives. Clear those first — it is free and it frequently is the answer.
It says F2. What does that mean?
The maker's own table gives it as the machine being unable to discharge water, with the discharge hose and the filters named as what to check. That is a documented meaning rather than our guess, which is not true of most codes people search for.
It started right after we had a new waste disposer fitted. Related?
Almost certainly. A new disposer ships with the dishwasher inlet plugged and the plug has to be knocked out during the install. If it was missed, the dishwasher has had nowhere to drain since that day.
