New appliance, renovation, or a move? We connect your washing machine and dishwasher to the water supply and drain safely and leak-tight — no risk of a leak after the first wash
Santehniķis Rīgā connects washing machines and dishwashers to the water supply and drainage in apartments and houses across Riga. Connection starts from €25, with a 12-month warranty on all work.
A washing machine needs connecting after buying a new appliance, following a bathroom or kitchen renovation, or after moving into a new apartment. The job sounds simple, but it involves several steps where a mistake can cause a leak: fitting or checking a proper shut-off valve, connecting the water supply hose without over- or under-tightening it, and securely fastening the drain hose to a trap or a dedicated drain pipe so dirty water can't be siphoned back in.
⚠️ Common mistake: An old or corroded shut-off valve that seems to work fine but can start leaking the moment it's closed for the first time — we check this on every connection.
Connecting a dishwasher in the kitchen often takes more planning than a washing machine — the space is tighter, and the appliance usually sits further from the main water point under the sink. We fit a branch off the sink's water supply, run a secure drain hose, and make sure the whole connection path stays accessible for future servicing rather than sealed behind a fixed kitchen panel.

Connecting an appliance looks simple — attach a hose and switch it on. In reality, most household appliance leaks we see on emergency call-outs come from exactly this: an incorrectly attached hose or a worn shut-off valve that shows no sign of trouble for a long time, then suddenly starts leaking under the floor — somewhere it goes unnoticed and causes an expensive moisture damage repair. Our plumber connects the appliance, checks every connection with an on-site test cycle, and only then considers the job complete. 12-month warranty on all work.

"I tried connecting the washing machine myself after moving in, but water appeared under the floor. The plumber found the hose wasn't fully tightened and checked everything."
