I had some guy come out and say he’d install a washer and dryer hookup for me but he wouldn’t patch the hole he’d make in the wall and he would charge $900 USD for the project. Yeah, no thanks. That’s more than the damn appliances and you won’t patch the hole in the wall when done? He was supposed to be a general handyman, type guy I found off Craigslist.
That was a few years ago and I still haven’t had it done because I just can’t find anyone to do it. I never realized that this was something that didn’t have people available to do. Local plumbers won’t do it, hardware stores advertise “we’ll hook up your appliance for free too!” But that is just hooking up to an existing connection…I just gave up on the idea of having a washer and dryer in my home at this point.
