Most dishwasher callbacks are leaks, and most leaks come from a rushed drain connection. We take the extra ten minutes on every single one.
Dishwashers
A dishwasher needs a supply line with an accessible shutoff, a drain that is either high-looped or run through an air gap, and a power connection that is not a stretched extension of something else. We do all three the way code and the manual want them.
Then it gets levelled, secured to the counter or the cabinet sides, panelled if it is integrated, and run through a full cycle while we watch the connections. Nothing gets signed off until it has run wet.
What Sets Us Apart
We run a complete cycle and inspect every joint while water is actually moving through it.
Fastened to the countertop or cabinet sides so the unit cannot tip when the loaded door is down.
Custom door panels, toe kicks and handles fitted with reveals matched to the surrounding cabinetry.
Side-mount brackets used under stone counters where you cannot screw up into the surface.
Our Process
The old unit comes out, and the supply, drain and outlet are inspected before anything new goes in.
Supply, drain and power are prepared, with the high loop or air gap set as required.
The dishwasher is levelled, slid in, and fastened to the counter or cabinet sides.
A full cycle is run while we inspect connections, then panels and toe kicks go on.

FAQs
Some Bay Area jurisdictions require one; elsewhere a high loop is accepted. We install to whichever your location requires.

We had a full Sub-Zero and Wolf package going into a new kitchen in Palo Alto and I was dreading install week. These guys measured everything two weeks before delivery, told our cabinet maker about a half inch problem with the refrigerator opening, and it got fixed before the appliances even shipped. Install day took one afternoon and everything worked. Genuinely the smoothest part of the entire remodel.
Hood install in a Berkeley Craftsman where the duct route was genuinely awkward. They ran rigid duct instead of the flex the previous quote wanted to use, and the difference in noise and airflow is enormous. It actually pulls steam now.
Full outdoor BBQ island in Novato. Grill, side burner, outdoor fridge and access doors. They pointed out the island was missing its vent panels and cut them in before setting the grill. That is a safety thing our contractor had missed entirely.
Wine column in Santa Rosa. Levelled it in both directions, ran both zones to temperature and told us to wait twelve hours before loading bottles. That kind of advice is why I would use them again.
Replaced a 20 year old cooktop with an induction unit and needed the electrical checked first. They looked at the panel, told me exactly what circuit I needed, and came back after the electrician finished. No upselling, no drama. The cutout was perfect and they cleaned the counter before leaving.
Washer and dryer install in Walnut Creek. They pulled the shipping bolts, levelled it properly and ran a spin cycle to prove it. Our old machine used to walk across the laundry room. This one has not moved an inch in four months.
Panel-ready dishwasher in Burlingame. The reveals match the cabinets exactly, which sounds like a small thing until you have seen one installed badly. They also ran a full cycle and watched the connections before signing off.
Double wall ovens into a stacked cabinet in Fremont. They checked the cabinet could take the weight and added support before lifting anything. The doors line up perfectly and it runs true to temperature.
Third floor condo in San Francisco with a freight elevator window of two hours. They handled the building paperwork, showed up early, and had the refrigerator in and running with time to spare. If you live in a building with rules, these are the people you want.
Miele built-in coffee unit plumbed into our kitchen island in Cupertino. They left enough slack in the line that the machine slides out for descaling, which our previous installer had not done on the old one. Small detail, huge difference.
LP conversion on a Wolf range at a property in Napa off the gas main. They used the actual Wolf kit, adjusted every simmer screw, leak tested it and labelled the unit. Very thorough and clearly knew the appliance well.
Micro-hood replacement in San Mateo. They noticed the previous installer had never rotated the blower, so it had been recirculating into the kitchen for years instead of venting outside. Fixed in ten minutes. Night and day difference.
