Q. Should you put flooring under your dishwasher or not?
A. Yes. If you set your dishwasher on an unfinished floor, then lay your flooring material, you will not be able to pull out the dishwasher should you ever need to service it. Why? The countertop will prevent you from lifting the dishwasher up over the flooring. Be sure to allow enough height (typcially 34.5") between the FINISHED floor and the bottom of your countertop to fit your dishwasher. You may need to raise up or “shim” your countertop to allow enough space. Ask your flooring installer and your countertop installer about this prior to any work being done.
