Repair guidance / Hotpoint / BR1 / BR2
One rack cleans worse than the other
Explain which rack is affected and whether the issue started after a change in loading. Poor water distribution may have several causes. Keep the account focused on the visible result; do not run the machine with the door latch defeated to watch its spray system.
A different pattern: water remains after the programme
Describe the amount of water visible, when the cycle stopped and whether a drain sound was heard. Some water below the filter area can be normal for a particular design. Do not tilt the machine to clear a warning or remove a hose while water is present.
A repair in a flat or a room reached by stairs
Include the floor level, entry arrangements and any stairs between the entrance and the equipment. These are practical booking details, not a reason to move the appliance yourself or promise that a repair can be completed on arrival.

Bickley: distinguish BR1 from BR2
Bickley addresses can fall within BR1 or BR2. Include the full postcode rather than selecting a district from the town name. Keep any entry instructions alongside the address so the intended property can be checked before arranging the visit.
Questions for this repair enquiry
What details help with “one rack cleans worse than the other”?
Keep the last successful operation separate from the first sign of the problem. For a report of “one rack cleans worse than the other”, say what still works and what no longer happens. If the other pattern, “water remains after the programme”, has also occurred, include its timing as a separate observation. Send these details with the full model and your Bickley postcode; they prepare the enquiry without identifying a part in advance.
How does “water remains after the programme” change the enquiry?
Treat that as additional evidence rather than proof that both symptoms have one cause. Explain whether the two patterns began together or appeared at different times. Include the fitting context — a repair in a flat or a room reached by stairs — so the assessment can account for safe access as well as the reported behaviour.
