Appliance installation jobs we handle in Wood Dale
Getting a new appliance into the kitchen is the easy part. In Wood Dale 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.

Range that rocks or tips
Anti-tip brackets are part of every range install we do, including ones we fix after someone else.
Oven, Range & Cooktop Installation →New gas range needs a hookup
We connect gas ranges with a new flexible connector, check every joint for leaks and light each burner before leaving.
Oven, Range & Cooktop Installation →Wall oven or cooktop that doesn't fit the cutout
New wall ovens and cooktops often need a slightly different opening. We adjust the cabinet or counter to the maker's cutout spec.
Oven, Range & Cooktop Installation →Dishwasher waiting to be connected
A new dishwasher needs a water supply, a drain with a high loop or air gap and the right power connection. We install it level and fastened in place.
Dishwasher Installation →Leaks after a previous install
When an appliance installed by someone else starts leaking, we pull it, check each joint and put it back level and dry.
Dishwasher Installation →Ice maker with no water line
If your new fridge has an ice maker and there's no supply behind it, a line has to be run. We connect it with an accessible shutoff.
