Hire a Trusted Local Expert for Washer Installation Near You

Washing machines are an essential part of every Kiwi household. Without our trusted washing machines, our homes would pile up with mountains of dirty laundry, leading to frustration and unhygienic conditions. If your washing machine has died or you’ve upgraded to the latest model, a tasker you find on Ezy Peazy can take care of every aspect of your washing machine installation.

Here’s how a washing machine installation service you find through Ezy Peazy can help you:

In-house Manoeuvring

Washing machines are heavy and bulky pieces of equipment. They’re designed to be sturdy, so they don’t move around during the washing and spin cycles. However, because of their size, it can be challenging to move a washing machine into its desired position.

That’s where a tasker you find on Ezy Peazy can help. They have the skills, experience, and strength to manoeuvre your washing machine into the correct position. Whether it’s using a hand trolley to move it into close proximity to its final position, or physically shifting it the final centimetres, you can be confident your washing machine will be perfectly sited without any damage being caused to your appliance or home.

Site Assessment before Installation

As washing machines are heavy and difficult to move, it’s important to scope out the site before you start positioning your appliance. Washing machines need adequate clearance for safe operation and they need access to water, drainage, and electricity. Plus, you also need to make sure your washing machine will stand on a firm and level surface to avoid excess vibration and movement.

A tasker you find on Ezy Peazy will do an initial site assessment for you, to make sure that your new appliance will fit into your desired space. They’ll also check to make sure that all the correct utilities are in place and that your water and drainage outlets have the correct fittings.

Delivery and Unpacking of Your Washer

Washing machines are heavy and bulky appliances, so it’s likely you’ll need some help to receive the delivery and with unpacking. A tasker you find on Ezy Peazy will be there to meet the delivery and make sure it gets into your home safely. Once inside, they can take care of the unpacking, including removing the shipping bolts that secure your washing machine drum during transport.

Some taskers can offer a full washing machine collection, delivery and installation service. That means you only need to order your washing machine, and they’ll take care of the entire process – saving you time and avoiding stress!

Positioning and Levelling

Positioning and levelling your washing machine are important steps for safe and optimal performance. A tasker you can find on Ezy Peazy will make sure the floor is level so only minor adjustments are needed with the height adjusters under your washing machine. They’ll also position it so it’s in the right spot for access to power, water, and drainage.

Incorrect levelling and positioning can mean excessive noise and vibration, which can lead to damage to your home or appliance. You can trust a tasker to make sure your washing machine is positioned and levelled correctly, for maximum performance and minimum noise and vibration.

Water Supply and Drain Hose Connection

Correct water supply and drainage connections are critical for the optimal performance of your washing machine. A tasker you find on Ezy Peazy will make sure your hot and cold water inlets have the correct connections and washers to avoid leaks. If necessary, they can use plumber’s tape to ensure a watertight connection.

As your washing machine is likely to be tucked away in your laundry and possibly under a benchtop, any drips will accumulate over time and cause damage, which you want to avoid.

It's also important to make sure that the drainage hose is correctly connected to or inserted into the drainage outlet. Again, because you won’t have a clear view of what’s going on behind your washing machine, you need to make sure that the drainage is secure to avoid any leaks, overflow, or backflow, which can cause long-term damage to your floor and walls.

Electrical hook-up of Your Washer

Connecting your washing machine to the powerpoint might seem like a simple step. However, as your washing machine’s operation involves water coming in and going out, there are higher risks involved. A faulty electrical connection can cause malfunctions and electrical hazards for you and your family, so it’s worth getting a tasker you find on Ezy Peazy to do the job for you. They’ll make sure any risks are minimised, so your washing machine operates safely and efficiently.

Clean-up After Installation

Like many types of appliance installation, a washing machine installation will create waste and mess. A tasker you can find on Ezy Peazy can remove any packaging – like cardboard, plastic, and polystyrene – and dispose of it safely and environmentally consciously.

It’s also likely that if you’re replacing an old appliance, there will be dirt and mess left behind once you remove your old washing machine. Your tasker can take care of any clean-up that results from your appliance installation, leaving your home clean and hygienic.

They can also remove your old washing machine for you and dispose of it correctly. This means you won’t be left with an old, rusty appliance sitting outside or taking up valuable space inside your garage.
