Do Plumbers Install Dishwashers?

Installing a new dishwasher requires both plumbing and electrical components. And while there are plenty of resources online on how to install your own dishwasher, there are many ways that a DIY dishwasher installation can go wrong. It’s not simply a matter of connecting a drain line, water supply line, and some wires. You need to have the knowhow to be able to troubleshoot any issues that may arise along the way. An experienced plumber can fix a dishwasher that leaks, won’t pull water correctly, or can’t empty through the drain line correctly.

Keep in mind that while new dishwashers are less likely to have broken components that lead to leaking, they are typically more difficult to troubleshoot when installation issues arise because they have more bells and whistles. Sophisticated dishwasher models may have more complicated manufacturer installation instructions than their more basic counterparts. These units are more likely to necessitate a licensed plumber to install.

With the steep cost of home appliances homeowners aren’t always keen on the idea of hiring a local plumber to install their dishwasher after having just paid for it. However, avoiding the kinds of problems that can arise can pay for the installation costs. If your dishwasher ends up leaking, it can ruin nearby cabinets and flooring in no time at all, requiring significant kitchen water restoration. This kind of fix is typically going to be much more expensive than just hiring a plumber to install the dishwasher from the beginning.
