Appliance Connections in Norwich — Water, Waste & Isolation.
We prepare and test the plumbing needed for washing machines and dishwashers. That includes water supply, waste routing, accessible isolation, and correcting unsuitable or leaking connections.
Replacing an existing appliance
Where the existing plumbing is sound and accessible, a replacement appliance can usually use the same water and waste points. We check the valves, hoses, seals, waste route, and connection for leaks.
Adding a new connection
A new appliance may need a suitable cold-water branch, isolation valve, waste connection, and space for hoses without kinks. We inspect the route and explain any cabinetry or electrical work that sits outside the plumbing job.
Waste and drainage connections
Poorly routed hoses and unsecured waste spigots can cause smells, slow drainage, leaks, or wastewater returning to the appliance. We set the hose route and connection to suit the appliance instructions and available plumbing.
Isolation and leak prevention
An accessible valve makes it possible to isolate the appliance quickly without shutting off the whole property. We replace seized or leaking valves and test every altered connection before leaving.
Can you connect both a washing machine and dishwasher?
Yes, where the water supply, waste capacity, and available space are suitable. We assess whether the existing arrangement can safely serve both appliances.
Can you add an appliance connection where there is not one now?
Usually. The feasibility depends on access to a suitable cold-water pipe and waste route. We inspect the proposed location and quote the required plumbing work.
Do you repair leaking appliance valves and hoses?
Yes. We can replace failed valves, hoses, seals, and suitable waste fittings, then test the connection under normal use.
Do you move or alter kitchen cabinets?
Minor access may be possible, but significant cabinetry alterations are normally separate from the plumbing work. We explain what access is needed before starting.
