Appliance Jobs We Offer

High-volume installs the big-box stores won't do

Common Job Types

  • Dishwasher installation and swap-outs
  • Over-the-range microwave installation
  • Washer and dryer hookup, including stacking kits
  • Refrigerator install with water line connection
  • Electric range, cooktop, and wall oven swaps
  • Range hood installation and venting
  • Garbage disposal replacement
  • Old-appliance disconnect and haul-away prep

Why Appliance Work Pays Well

Big-box retailers increasingly deliver only to the curb or garage, and many refuse over-the-range microwaves and dishwashers outright. That gap is our pipeline: customers book the install the same week the appliance arrives.

Appliance replacement is a steady, recession-resistant cycle — when a dishwasher dies, it gets replaced. Demand holds year-round across all 190+ cities we serve.

Jobs are quick and repeatable. A dialed-in installer runs 3-6 jobs a day, and the per-job pricing works out to $45-$80 per hour with routes concentrated in your area.

License Information

Most like-for-like appliance swaps (dishwasher for dishwasher, microwave for microwave) are license-free handyman work in California under the CSLB $500 exemption when no new gas, electrical, or plumbing lines are run. Gas appliance connections and new dedicated circuits are reserved for pros with the appropriate license or certification — holding one qualifies you for the highest-paying jobs on the platform.
