It went fabulously. The company owner, Jason came out to bid the job and he also did the installation and oversaw the duct work installation. He went above and beyond in doing a great job, even painting the inside of the closet where all the equipment went and installing a better grade...

Dishwasher Installation questions, answered by experts

No, you do not need a garbage disposal to have a dishwasher. A dishwasher will work without one, and while it's rare to see a home with a dishwasher that doesn't have a disposal, it is possible. The two appliances pair well and are often installed together because a disposal simplifies meal cleanup.

However, your dishwasher should not be used as a replacement for a garbage disposal. Subjecting it to continuous food leftovers can lead to major clogs. If you choose not to install a garbage disposal, you should thoroughly rinse your plates or scrape excess food into the trash or a compost pile before loading them into the dishwasher to prevent plumbing issues.

A standard dishwasher size is 24-by-24-by-35-inch for a built-in unit. The depth and height line up perfectly with most kitchen countertops and cabinet sizes.

Installing a dishwasher should take one to four hours, depending on the complexity of the installation and whether you DIY or hire a pro. Even if you're particularly handy, installing a dishwasher on your own will likely take longer — at least two hours. On the other hand, a professional can likely install a dishwasher in about an hour. Installation time will take longer if you have to remove an existing dishwasher, reroute plumbing, or repair damaged flooring underneath the appliance.

When a dishwasher discharges its wastewater, it uses a pump to quickly move a lot of water. If anything in the drain line or the garbage disposal impedes the high volume of water, it will back up into the sink through the drain or the garbage disposal. Following regular dishwasher maintenance tips like clearing clogs, keeping them cleared, and occasionally running the disposal will eliminate the problem.

The only way to repair a dishwasher door hinge is to replace the broken or damaged hinge. To do this, you'll want to remove the old hinge, install a new one that fits your specific dishwasher model, and reattach the panel.
