DIY Dishwasher Replacement
If it is time for a dishwasher replacement, whether the current one stopped working or you decide it is time to replace it. Removing the old dishwasher and installing a new one is a project most DIY homeowners can accomplish without too much trouble. You will need a few tools and some basic knowledge of plumbing and electric.
Most dishwashers come in standard sizes so you can easily install a new one without any cabinet modification.
A few issues that you could possibly come across are:
- New flooring was installed without the cabinets or appliances being moved and you may have a height issue when you try to replace the dishwasher.
- The dishwasher was installed before the countertop and they did not make a big enough hole in the cabinet to get the hoses through.
- If you have a granite or other stone countertop, the mounting clips may have been epoxied to the top, or it may be screwed to the cabinet on the side of the dishwasher.
