Comprehensive Kitchen Plumbing in Lincolnshire, IL
Kitchen plumbing during a remodel can range from quick swaps like replacing faucets, installing a new disposal, or connecting a dishwasher, to more extensive work like relocating your sink, running new gas lines for your range, adding a prep sink, or installing a pot filler. The size of the job affects cost, duration, and permit needs. No matter the scale, our team is ready to manage it all.
When you reach out at 224-524-1213, my best tip is to bring us in early—before your cabinets go in. If the sink is moving, rerouting drains and vents is easiest while subfloors and walls are open. Gas lines for stoves or island cooktops need to be roughed in before cabinetry is set. Pot filler faucet installation means opening walls behind the stove, so early scheduling helps avoid delays. Getting plumbing in place on time is crucial to keep your project on track.
We also handle stand-alone kitchen plumbing jobs outside remodels, such as faucet repairs or replacements, disposal servicing, refrigerator water line installation, and dishwasher hookups. Kitchen upgrades are a good chance to evaluate your water heater’s capacity and address any slow drain issues before cabinets go back. Call us at 224-524-1213 anytime for kitchen plumbing help.
Our Kitchen Plumbing Services Include
Sink and Faucet Installation
We work with all types of kitchen sinks—undermount (which requires precise countertop cutouts), drop-in, farmhouse style, single or double bowls, and prep sinks. Our installation covers drain assemblies, strainers, P-traps, and all hot and cold water connections using durable braided stainless steel lines—no brittle plastic here. We efficiently install garbage disposals during the same visit if needed.
For faucets, we handle every mounting style, whether it’s a one-hole, three-hole, or configurations with a deck plate, ensuring everything is tested under pressure before completion. Moving a sink to a new spot involves rerouting drains and vents, which we perform with proper permits and inspections.
Dishwasher and Appliance Hookups
Hooking up a dishwasher involves connecting the hot water supply, routing the drain line with a high loop or air gap to prevent backflow, and confirming the electrical supply with your electrician. For refrigerators with ice makers or water dispensers, we install dedicated cold water lines using copper or stainless braided tubing with shutoff valves accessible behind the unit.
We also install instant hot water taps, under-sink water filtration, and reverse osmosis systems, including dedicated faucet installation and maintenance guidance. Reach out at 224-524-1213 for any kitchen appliance plumbing needs.
Gas Line Installation for Kitchen Appliances
Thinking of switching to gas or adding a gas cooktop to your island? We size and install gas lines precisely for your appliance’s BTU requirements, running lines from your existing gas supply. Our work includes installing shutoff valves, using code-approved flexible connectors, pressure testing, and managing permits and inspections. Check our gas line services page for more details.
Important: Gas line rough-ins must be completed before cabinets are installed because running gas lines afterward is tricky and disruptive. Coordinate this early with your general contractor and us.
Pot Filler Faucet Installation
A pot filler faucet mounted above your stove makes filling pots easy and safe. We run a cold water line inside the wall, typically about 56 to 60 inches above the floor and near the stove’s center. This is easiest during remodels with open walls but can be done with minimal disruption in finished kitchens too. Call us at 224-524-1213 to discuss your setup.
Island Sink Drain and Vent Solutions
Installing a sink in a kitchen island comes with unique plumbing challenges since the drain can’t tie into a wall vent the usual way. Island sinks need either an island loop vent or an Air Admittance Valve (AAV), depending on local codes. We handle routing the hot and cold supply lines and carefully plan drain and vent pipes through floors and cabinetry. We’re experienced with island installations—give us a call before finalizing your design.

Kitchen Remodel Plumbing FAQs
Yes, but relocating a sink to an island is one of the more intricate plumbing jobs because island drains require special venting solutions like an island loop vent or an Air Admittance Valve (AAV). Water supply lines are straightforward, but drain routing under the floor takes careful planning. We’ve done plenty of island sink installations—call us at 224-524-1213 to talk through your island design before finalizing your plans.
If you’re just replacing fixtures in the same spot—like faucets, disposals, or dishwashers—typically no permits are needed. However, permits are required if you’re rerouting drain or supply lines, installing new gas lines, or changing the kitchen layout. We handle all permitting and scheduling inspections as part of the project.
Yes, and it’s best to schedule gas line installation while walls are open during a remodel. We properly size, install, pressure test, and permit gas lines for ranges, cooktops, and ovens. Make sure to get this scheduled before cabinets go in to avoid costly changes later. See our gas line services page for details.
