Washing machine installation

Posted by Elinor Hunt, on
We want to move our washing machine from the kitchen into a storage closet that previously contained the water tank for our boiler. It has water pipes already there, and it's next to the bathroom so there should be a waste pipe close I think, the biggest issue I think is the electricity. Is there anything else we need to take into account? How much would something like this cost to do? Thanks.

The only thing is to check the pumping distance of the machine before you start you should be able to find this in the manual. Depending on were you are you would expect to pay around £80 for an electric point and a plumber should be around £120 but this would depend on the water waste side. Hope this helps
