Repair guidance / Samsung / BR3
Water leaks around the door
Note whether water appears early in the wash or near the end and whether foam is present. Loading, door sealing and water circulation can all affect what is seen at the front. Stop using the machine and avoid wet electrical points.
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 leaks around the door”?
Keep the last successful operation separate from the first sign of the problem. For a report of “water leaks around the door”, 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 Beckenham 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.
