The only thing I like about installing dishwashers is the hose connection on the solenoid. I hate the rest of the install. In Mass. there now must be a cord installed on the machine and a receptacle installed under the sink. No more hard wiring. The guy I used to work with would steal the sample of soap they would supply with the machine. THe other trouble I have is when you slide new machine in the insulation won't stay in place when sliding machine in. What I do is to duct tape the insulation in place and that keeps it from bunching up.
Mr. Sunshine I love the ones where the kitchens have been remodeled and they have half inch marble on the floor with half inch thin set and you have to cut the legs off the old dishwasher to get it out and then you can’t get the new one in . I think we’ve all been there✌️ it’s not you Johnny. They are very difficult. $300+ job for sure
@Pipesolutionsinc absolutely 💯, we get a lot of SHIT thrown at us and have to make it work somehow,intestinal fortitude is a requirement if you want to be a plumber.
My last call of the year was replacing an old 4 bolt toilet with a new comfort height toilet. Lead bend, no flange. HELL. And then clear a floor drain that a washing machine was rigged up to dump over into. Also HELL. Finally, unclog a tub drain with a drum trap. I was over it at that point. 1950’s house. Absolute nightmare!! HAPPY F’IN NEW YEAR 😂
I'm watching to the end John...$200 no wonder ? Would you love to do them at $600 ?? You gotta up your rates man ! I tell people $285 - 300 "Basic" but can run 50-100 more cause of addl wiring or stop needed.....I've raised my prices 3x since Covid.. Keep raising until you get more No's...
Johnny it’s 2025 now brother . It’s time to get ready for retirement. 2 years brother . Raise your prices stop being the nice guy . I don’t agree with Mikey as he is a Don supporter. But Mikey I’m sure is Chargeing what he deserves . 2 years Johnny then it’s time to ride off into the sunset .

I add a shut off and increase the price a little. I'm usually around 400$ for a customer supplied dishwasher install
Happy New Year John,stay healthy.Keep doing what you do.
Happy new year johnny
The best is when they add flooring around it
Happy New Year to you and Johnny Sunshine followers!!

Yes, the 1st thing I do when I get a dishwasher call is to put on my gloves.
