Sounds fine. 4mm cable is correct for a 32A radial, and is likely to become the norm as they try and phase out ring circuits in favour of radials.
My main thing would be to have the socket for the dishwasher at a decent height/distance away so it doesn’t cause problems if there’s a leak. I can’t remember if there’s any specific regs about that.

Discovered last night that I have a double socket in the kitchen which is (almost certainly) on a radial circuit on it's own. The circuit used to power the oven which no longer exists, new oven is on a new circuit of its own.
The socket has a 32A breaker and 4mm cabling.
Can anyone comment on feasibility of extending the radial circuit beneath kitchen units to create another double socket on the adjacent wall and one below the units for dishwasher ? Has anyone done similar ?
