Plus remedial plumber, fitted kitchen dismantler.
My biggest headache each day is caused by fitted kitchens. Only one in ten seem to have been fitted by someone who has more than one brain cell. It should be simple common sense, that the reason the outlet and fill pipes and mains cable are the length they are, is to allow the machine to be removed from under the units without having to disconnect them. How can you water test or trace an intermittant fault if you have to disconnect the feed to the machine.
I could write a book about gormless plumbers and kitchen fitters, plumbing a cold fill tap to the gas pipe, installing a washer then tiling accross the front with thick quarry tiles that had to be chiselled out to access the appliance, sink wastes draining into the washing machine the list is endless.
