Default Need recommendations for a licensed plumber to install gas stove and dishwasher

We are having new appliances delivered on June 14 and we are need of a licensed plumber to install gas stove and dishwasher. Our property is in Marion County section of the Villages.

We need someone who can install on that day (Saturday) as Lowe's doesn't install on the weekend and we live out of state.
Thank you

oh dear Patty. You need an electrician for the stove and a plumber for the dishwasher. Is that right, everybody?

Was there already a gas range in the location?

Assuming your new range is gas top and electric oven, and that there is already gas and 220v electric at the stove location, you should just need a plumber. The only electrical work that would need to be done in that case is to attach the correct plug to the stove to match the wall outlet, no license needed for that. If there is no 220v at the stove location (I.e. the previous range was all gas, not typical) then you will need an electrician, and it going to be a big job. If there is no gas pre-plumbed (I.e. Previous range was all electric, and the builder did not future-proof) then you are talking a major job, requiring permits and inspections.

The dishwasher should be pretty cut and dried, and require only a plumber. But I have heard that some brands have moved where you make connections requiring an electrician to come install a junction box and lengthen or relocate the pigtail.

We are replacing the current appliances which are in place - a gas range (stove top and oven) and the dishwasher. The current gas range is currently connected and also has electric available if we would ever switch to all electric.
Just to clarify for the prior posts.....
looking for a reliable plumber that can do an install on a weekend......

A gas range requires a licensed plumber to make the gas connections....this is a gas, not an electric range.
Need a plumber to do both.

oh, lucky you! I can't have gas...and would never have guessed a plumber to make the connections. I recommend Mike Scott Plumbing.

Actually, you need a licensed gas fitter. Some plumbers have the additional license.

True, but they still need the gas license.
