The Dishwasher Plumbing We Do

From a first dishwasher in the kitchen to one that won't drain, connected by a licensed plumber and priced before any work starts.

New Dishwasher Installs

A dishwasher fitted where there was none: a valve on the water, the drain taken to the sink trap and the hoses run through the cupboard.

Dishwasher Not Draining

Water left in the bottom after a wash, usually a kinked or blocked drain hose, a blocked spigot on the sink trap, or a blocked sink backing up into it.

Swapping Out An Old Dishwasher

The old one disconnected and pulled out, and the new one connected in the same spot, including dishwashers you have bought yourself.

Leaking Dishwasher Hoses

Water in the cupboard or under the floor from a loose clamp, a worn connection or a burst braided hose, found and fixed before it ruins the cabinet.

Dishwasher Taps And Valves

A valve fitted on the water under the sink just for the dishwasher, or a worn one replaced when it drips or won't turn off. The same job is done for a washing machine in the laundry.

Moving The Water And Drain

The water and drain extended when the dishwasher is going into a new spot in the kitchen, or longer hoses fitted when the old ones won't reach.

How Bad Is Your Dishwasher Problem?

Three dishwasher situations we get called about, from most to least urgent, and what to do about each.

Water Coming Out Under The Dishwasher

Stop the wash, switch the dishwasher off at the wall and turn off the valve under the sink that feeds it. Then mop up and call us, because water sitting under a dishwasher soaks into the cabinet and floorboards fast.

Water Left Sitting In The Bottom

Clean the filter in the base first, the way the manual shows. If water still sits there after a wash, the drain hose, the spigot on the sink trap or the sink drain is blocked, and we clear it and test it.

New Dishwasher On The Way

Tell us the model and where it is going. We check the space has a water valve, a drain and a power point in reach before installation day, so it goes in first time.

Check The Space

We measure the space, check the water valve, the drain and the power point, and tell you if anything has to change first. If there is no power point in reach, an electrician fits one before we connect.

Dishwasher Installation FAQs

Answer:

It depends on what is already there. Swapping a dishwasher into a space that already has a valve and a drain connection is a smaller job than a first install that needs a new valve, a drain connection and holes through the cupboard. We look first, then give you one fixed price to approve before any work starts, and there is nothing to pay just for us to come and look during business hours.

Answer:

If the new dishwasher is going into the same spot and the old valve, hoses and drain connection are in good order, it is mostly a matter of connecting the hoses. Fitting a new valve on the water, a new drain connection or moving the points is plumbing work for a licensed plumber. A slow leak under a dishwasher usually goes unnoticed until the cabinet or floor is damaged, so the connections are worth getting right.

Answer:

Yes. A dishwasher plugs into a power point, usually in the cupboard beside it or under the sink. If there isn't one within reach of the cord, an electrician needs to fit one before we connect the dishwasher, and we will tell you when we check the space.

Answer:

Yes. Plenty of the dishwashers we connect were bought by the customer. Tell us the model and where it is going when you book, so we come with the right valve, hoses and fittings.

Answer:

Most often the filter in the base is full, the drain hose is kinked or blocked, or the spigot where the hose joins the sink trap is blocked. If the kitchen sink is slow too, the blockage is in the sink drain and the dishwasher is backing up into it. We clear the drain side and test it, and if the pump inside the dishwasher has failed we tell you so it can go to an appliance repairer.

Answer:

The usual causes are a loose or split drain hose, a worn inlet hose or valve, or water backing up from a blocked sink. Switch the dishwasher off, turn off the valve under the sink, and call us to find where it is coming from. Water that only appears at the door is usually the dishwasher itself rather than the plumbing.

Answer:

Yes. Every connection we make is covered by our lifetime workmanship guarantee: if our work fails, we come back and fix it. A fault inside the dishwasher itself goes back to its maker.
