Welcome to Mac-Forums, andrew77.

You didn't see it in the Utilities folder? That's where it should be. If not, you will need to install it from the MacBook's intall disks. Use Pacifist to extract DiskUtility from it.

in the utilities folder under applications.

good luck with the new macbook and welcome aboard!
