Why use a licensed tradie for your dishwasher?
Dishwashers need the right water connection, drainage and power to work reliably. Poor installation can lead to slow leaks inside cabinets, drains that back up into sinks, or electrical issues that cause nuisance tripping.
A professional installation makes sure your dishwasher is connected correctly, secured in place and tested so you can use it without worrying about hidden water damage.
- Correct water connection with isolation valve
- Proper drainage to stop backflow and smells
- Safe, compliant electrical connection and power supply
- Unit leveled and secured so it does not move or tip
- Old dishwasher safely disconnected and removed if requested

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you install a dishwasher I have already bought?
- Yes. As long as the unit meets Australian standards we can install it. We will check the space, access to water, drainage and power before we start.
Do I need both a plumber and an electrician?
- In many homes an existing powerpoint and plumbing setup can be used, so the main work is plumbing. If you need a new powerpoint, circuit or changes to wiring, a licensed electrician is required. We can coordinate both trades where needed.
What if there has never been a dishwasher in this spot before?
-
We can often create a new connection point by extending water and drainage from the kitchen sink and adding a suitable powerpoint. We will assess access in the cabinet and under the sink and explain what is involved.
Can you remove and dispose of my old dishwasher?
- Yes. We can disconnect and remove the old unit as part of the job and leave the area tidy. Just let us know when you book so we allow for handling and disposal.
What happens during a dishwasher installation?
- We isolate water and power, disconnect and remove the old unit if needed, prepare the cabinet space and check hoses and wiring. We then connect water and drainage, plug in or wire the appliance, level and secure it, and run a test cycle to check for leaks and correct operation.
