Full-Service Kitchen Plumbing in Gilberts, IL
Kitchen plumbing during a remodel can be a quick fix like swapping out faucets and hooking up a new disposal, or a bigger job like relocating sinks, installing gas lines, or adding a pot filler faucet. The extent of work affects your project schedule, cost, and whether permits are required. Whatever the complexity, we’ve got it covered.
When planning, call us at 224-291-8682 early in your project. It’s best to have plumbing figured out before cabinets go in. For example, if you’re moving the sink, rerouting the drain lines happens while the floor is open. Adding gas lines for a cooktop or range also needs to be roughed in early. Pot filler installations require opening the wall behind your stove, so lining it up before backsplash work is crucial. Early scheduling with us can keep your remodel on track.
We also handle kitchen plumbing for standalone service calls — faucet replacements, disposal repairs, dishwasher hookups, or refrigerator water lines — for homeowners not remodeling but needing plumbing work. Plus, remodeling is a great opportunity to evaluate your water heater capacity and clear any slow drains with professional drain cleaning before resealing cabinets. Reach out at 224-291-8682 for all your kitchen plumbing needs.
What Kitchen Plumbing Services We Offer
Sink & Faucet Installation
We fit every type of kitchen sink, including undermount, drop-in, farmhouse, single or double bowl, and prep sinks. Our installation covers the drain assembly, strainer, P-trap, and braided stainless steel supply lines — no brittle plastic here. We also install garbage disposals alongside your sink plumbing for convenience.
For faucets, we handle all mounting styles—single-hole, three-hole, deck-mounted—checking for leaks and proper function. Moving your sink to a new spot is more complex, involving rerouting drains and vents plus extending water lines. We take care of the entire process, including permits and inspections.
Dishwasher & Appliance Hookups
We connect dishwashers with hot water lines and drain hoses installed with a correct high loop or air gap to prevent contamination. We’ll coordinate with your electrician to ensure proper power supply. For refrigerators, we run dedicated cold water lines for ice makers or water dispensers, using copper or stainless braided tubing with accessible shutoff valves.
We also install instant hot water taps, under-sink filtration, and reverse osmosis systems—making sure faucets, supply, and waste lines are all properly connected. Call us at 224-291-8682 for smooth appliance plumbing.
Gas Line Installation for Kitchen Appliances
Whether you’re converting from electric to gas or adding a gas cooktop on an island, we set up gas lines right. We calculate the correct pipe size based on BTUs, run lines from your supply or meter, install shutoff valves, connect appliances with approved flexible connectors, perform pressure testing, and manage all permits and inspections. Visit our gas line page for details on safety and procedure.
Important: Gas lines to new locations must be installed before cabinets go in. Retrofitting gas piping afterward is tricky and disruptive. Coordinate early with your GC and our team to keep your remodel efficient.
Pot Filler Faucet Installation
A pot filler faucet above your stove lets you fill pots directly without hauling heavy kettles across the kitchen. Installation requires running a cold water line inside the wall roughly 56 to 60 inches up, about four inches from the stove’s centerline. This is easiest during remodeling, but we can retrofit into finished kitchens with minimal disruption. Contact us at 224-291-8682 to learn more.
Island Sink Plumbing & Drain Venting
Installing a sink on a kitchen island is more involved because you can’t tie the drain into a wall vent the usual way. Island sinks require either an island loop vent or an air admittance valve (AAV) to meet code. While running hot and cold supply lines to the island is straightforward, routing drain and vent piping under the floor and back up into the island cabinet takes planning. We’re experienced with island setups and happy to help before you finalize your kitchen design.

Timing Tips for Kitchen Plumbing
- Confirm sink placement before demolition: Moving the sink is a major plumbing change—choose the location before ordering cabinets.
- Get gas line rough-in done early: Gas piping to new locations must be installed before cabinetry.
- Install pot fillers before backsplash work: Easier to open walls before tile is applied.
- Update shutoff valves while visible: Replace old gate valves with ball valves when plumbing is accessible.
- Run refrigerator water lines before countertops: Easier to access these lines before counters are set.
Kitchen Remodeling Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, but it’s the most involved plumbing change since island sinks require special venting solutions like an island loop vent or an air admittance valve (AAV). Supplying water is straightforward, but drain vent routing through the floor needs careful design. We do this often—call us at 224-291-8682 to talk about your island layout before finalizing it.
If you’re just replacing fixtures in the same spot (faucet, disposal, dishwasher hookup), permits usually aren’t needed. But any drain rerouting, new supply lines, gas line work, or layout changes will require permits. We handle the permit applications and inspections to keep everything above board.
Absolutely. Remodeling gives us access to run gas lines for ranges, cooktops, or ovens properly sized and pressure tested. We take care of permits too. It’s important to schedule this before cabinetry installation to avoid costly rework.
