Washing machine and dishwasher plumbing
Plumbing help for washing-machine and dishwasher water supplies, isolation valves, wastes and connection points. We can diagnose leaking or unsuitable plumbing connections and alter accessible pipework where needed.
Common appliance plumbing jobs
A new appliance needs suitable water, waste and space. Existing kitchen or utility plumbing is not always arranged correctly for the replacement machine.
Washing machine feeds
Cold-water supply and isolation arrangements for washing machines.
Dishwasher feeds
Suitable water connections and valves for dishwashers.
Waste connections
Standpipes, traps and spigots used for appliance discharge.
Leaking valves
Failed or weeping appliance isolation valves and fittings.
New connection points
Adding practical water or waste connections where pipework allows.
Poor hose routing
Correcting accessible routes that are kinked, strained or likely to leak.
Make sure the plumbing suits the appliance position
We check the available connection points, isolation, waste route and accessible pipework before altering anything. The aim is a serviceable connection that does not rely on stretched hoses or awkward inaccessible valves.
If the fault is inside the appliance itself rather than the plumbing connection, appliance repair may be the appropriate next step.
Before an appliance is moved or replaced
Moving an old appliance can expose seized valves, leaking connections or unsuitable waste arrangements that were hidden behind the machine.
Check the valve
An old appliance valve may leak once disturbed and may need replacement.
Check the waste
Incorrectly arranged waste hoses can contribute to leaks or drainage problems.
Protect the floor
Small connection leaks can cause damage before they are noticed.
Know the fault type
Water leaking from the appliance body may need an appliance engineer rather than plumbing work.

Appliance plumbing FAQs
Can you connect a new washing machine?
Yes, where suitable water, waste and electrical provisions are available. We handle the plumbing connections and any practical minor pipework changes.
Can you add a dishwasher connection?
Often yes, depending on the available cold-water supply, waste arrangement and cupboard/appliance layout.
What if the isolation valve leaks when turned?
That is common with older valves and the valve may need replacing before the appliance can be connected reliably.
Do you repair the appliance itself?
We deal with the plumbing connections and associated pipework. Internal appliance faults may need an appliance repair specialist.
