Appliance installation jobs we handle in Des Plaines
Getting a new appliance into the kitchen is the easy part. In Des Plaines we check what's behind it first: the gas shutoff, the circuit, the water valve, the drain and the size of the opening. Then we connect it per the maker's instructions, test it and haul the old unit away.
Built-in or drawer microwave
A microwave drawer in an island or a trim-kit model in a wall cabinet both depend on an exact cutout. We fit and secure them.
Microwave Installation →Wall oven or cooktop that doesn't fit the cutout
Cutout sizes change between models, so a replacement oven or cooktop may need the cabinet or counter reworked. We handle it.
Oven, Range & Cooktop Installation →Old appliances that need to go
Old fridges, ranges and dishwashers are heavy and awkward. We carry them out and take them off your hands.
Kitchen Appliance Removal →Switching to induction
Induction usually needs a 240-volt circuit of the right size. An electrician checks the panel capacity, and we install the cooktop or range.
Oven, Range & Cooktop Installation →Circuits and gas that may not be ready
New appliances can need more power or a different hookup than the old ones. We check readiness before install day so nothing gets delayed.
Range that rocks or tips
If the stove moves when you lean on the open oven door, it isn't anchored. We fit the bracket that should have been there.
Oven, Range & Cooktop Installation →Ice maker with no water line
No water where the fridge goes? We arrange a supply line and check it for drips after the first fill.

Kitchen Appliance Installation questions from Des Plaines homeowners

Do you install appliances I bought from another store?
Yes. We install appliances from big-box stores, local dealers and online sellers.

It depends on how many units and how much prep. We give you a schedule with the estimate.
Do you haul away old appliances?
Yes, haul-away is available with any install.
What does Des Plaines ask for on electrical work?
Electricians need a City contractor license and fees plus an Electrical Test Certificate. New circuits and wiring are done by licensed electricians.
Can Des Plaines bulk pickup take my old appliance or cabinets?
Hauler is LRS: one bulk item per week at no extra charge; extra items may incur a charge. If you'd rather not deal with it, we haul old units and debris away.
