All in natural Method:
There are many ways to fix a slow drain, and the first method you can try is an old - time home remedy. First, pour a half of a cup of table salt into the drain. Then, pour a half of a cup of baking soda in the drain. Follow this by pouring a half of a cup of vinegar into the drain over the salt and the soda. Let this mixture set undisturbed for about fifteen to twenty minutes. Then, pour either very hot tap water or boiling water into the drain for three minutes. This method should clean the partial clog out of your drain. Repeat the process if necessary, to clear the drain completely. https://www.bestaccessdoors.com/blog/how-to-choose-and-install-access-panels-for-plumbing/
It would probably be very good to call a plumber to fix that problem. If someone doesn't know how to fix that, it could cause a problem in the future with the plumbing. A plumbing has the knowledge and training to fix the problem without causing problems in the future. https://www.economyplumbingtx.com/residential-service/
I would think the line is not vented properly.
The drain pipe may not have been installed correctly - the slope may be wrong, or the pipe may be too small, or you may have too much backpressure, or if you have a septic tank it may be full and need pumping, or any number of other possible problems. You might have another plumber come for an assessment and opinion - make it clear that you don't necessarily intend to hire them to do any WORK, you just want their opinion. Then they won't try to sell you all new plumbing to replace what you just bought...
Two things to consider....clean water or
dirty water?
Clean water usually indicates the fill valve
is not shutting off all the way and the fill valve is "weeping" water
in all the time = new fill valve time!!
Dirty water usually is not a dishwasher
problem but more of a plumbing issue. Often the sink drain that carries the
sinks water outside is not fast enough and some of this sink water is backing
up into the drain hose and filling up the dishwasher through the drain hose.
The drain from the sink to outside needs attention as this type of a problem
indicates a slow house drain for that sink.
The dishwasher drain line should be clamped to the top underneath part of the counter before entering the sink drain plumbing, this may help the water from coming back inside the dishwasher.
