Dishwasher installation with plumbing, electrics & drilling

£400

Unity Place, Greater London

28th Mar 2026

We want to install a dishwasher next the the washing machine. Currently next to the washing machine is a cupboard with a plug socket. We would need to (1) remove the cupboard, (2) rewire the plug so that it has a double socket for the dishwasher and the washing machine & these would need to be rerouted somewhere visible - there is space by the boiler cupboard, (3) do the plumbing for the dishwasher - the waste outlet already exists, but we need an additional inlet. Note that currently the cabinet is holding up the countertop. We would also need (4) a bracket to hold the countertop, screwed into the wall. We also have a drip from the toilet (rear pipe)and the shower drips when it's in the upright position. Hopefully these are smaller jobs. The dishwasher and washing machine can be swapped around potentially. Happy to show the job if you are in the area. Let me know if I need a separate electrician for the plug. Just hoping someone would know how to do both plumbing and electrics. Let me know about the price.

Electrician needed for dishwasher

£89

Dalston, Greater London, E8

15th Feb 2026

My dishwasher is causing the kitchen circuit breaker to trip. When the dishwasher is turned on, the circuit trips almost immediately. After switching off the dishwasher at the wall, the circuit breaker can be reset and works normally. This suggests there may be an electrical fault within the dishwasher (possibly heating element, wiring, or internal component). I need a qualified appliance technician or electrician to: • Diagnose the cause of the fault • Confirm whether it can be repaired safely • Provide repair if possible, or advise if replacement is required

Great communication.
