Richard Trethewey and Nathan Gilbert team up to help a homeowner create space for and install a dishwasher. Richard received an email asking for help installing a dishwasher in a 1950s built home. Installing a dishwasher can be a straightforward job but if the kitchen has never had a dishwasher before, cabinet work will need to be done. Richard gets some help from Nathan to tackle the project.

Where to find it?
Richard installed a 55 dBA in Stainless Steel Front Control Built-In Dishwasher with Steam Clean [https://bit.ly/3odr67y] by GE Appliances [https://www.geappliances.com/]. To connect the dishwasher, Richard used a standard dishwasher hose, a Y tailpiece for the drain, and a push connect shutoff valve, all of which can be found at home centers and plumbing supply houses.
To adjust the cabinets to make room for the dishwasher, Nathan used a variety of tools, including a circular saw and a reciprocating saw, that can be found at most home centers.
To bridge the gap between the formica countertops and the sink, Richard actually re-used an old piece of butcher block [https://amzn.to/2Rf9YCl] that he salvaged from the Newton Generation NEXT House [https://www.thisoldhouse.com/newton-generation-next-house], but butcher block can also be found at most centers.
