Repair guidance / Hotpoint / BR2
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 different pattern: the dishes stay cold and greasy
Record the programme and whether it finishes normally. Poor cleaning and failed heating are related observations, but either can involve more than a heater. Report detergent left behind, programme interruptions and whether the problem affects every wash.
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.

Questions for this repair enquiry
What details help with “water remains after the programme”?
Keep the last successful operation separate from the first sign of the problem. For a report of “water remains after the programme”, say what still works and what no longer happens. If the other pattern, “the dishes stay cold and greasy”, has also occurred, include its timing as a separate observation. Send these details with the full model and your Hayes postcode; they prepare the enquiry without identifying a part in advance.
How does “the dishes stay cold and greasy” 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.
