Installation of new dishwasher

Tags: Electrical & Lighting
Help! I have bought an older townhome that never had a dishwasher. I want to have one installed but I would like to know how difficult that will be.

Could someone let me know what steps are involved in a brand new dishwasher installation and roughly how much a plumber would charge to do this if necessary to hire one?

Thanks!

If you have a disposer, the installation is a bit easier since most have a built in drain port for a dishwasher. You can have the hot water tapped at the shutoff for the supply, but you will need an electrician to wire in the unit to a dedicated circuit.
