Expert Kitchen Plumbing for Remodels in Bolingbrook, IL
Kitchen plumbing during a remodel can be as simple as swapping a faucet or installing a disposal, or as involved as relocating the sink to an island, adding gas lines for new appliances, or installing a pot filler faucet. The complexity drives how long it takes, what the cost will be, and if permits are necessary. Whatever your project requires, we handle it professionally and reliably.
Here’s a tip: get the plumbing sorted before cabinets arrive. Moving the sink means reworking drain lines and vents, best done when the subfloor is open. Adding a gas line to an island or stove must be roughed in before cabinetry. Pot filler faucet installs involve opening walls behind the stove, so do it before backsplash tile goes in. Scheduling your plumber early keeps your project on track in our changing Illinois climate.
We also provide kitchen plumbing repairs and upgrades outside of remodels — faucet replacements, garbage disposal repairs, dishwasher hookups, refrigerator water lines, and more. It's a good time to check your water heater’s capacity and clear any slow drains before you seal everything up. Call us at 331-260-0928 for any kitchen plumbing needs.
Comprehensive Kitchen Plumbing Services
Installing Kitchen Sinks & Faucets
We put in all types of sinks: undermount (working with your countertop), drop-in, farmhouse, single or double bowls, and prep sinks. Installation covers drain baskets, strainers, P-traps, and hot and cold braided stainless steel supply lines for durability. We also handle garbage disposal installations during the same visit when needed.
For faucets, we cover all mounting setups (single hole, three-hole, deck plates) and pressure test to ensure there are no leaks. Moving your sink to a new spot is a bigger job — involving rerouted drains and vents — and we manage all permitting and inspections for those changes.
Hookup for Dishwashers & Other Appliances
Dishwasher connections include tying into the hot water line, routing the drain hose with an air gap or high loop to prevent backflow, and checking electric supply coordination with your electrician. For refrigerators with ice makers or water dispensers, we install a dedicated cold water line from the nearest supply, using copper or braided stainless tubing, along with a shutoff valve accessible behind the fridge.
We also set up instant hot water dispensers, under-sink filtration, and reverse osmosis systems—installing dedicated faucets and managing supply and drain connections. Reach out at 331-260-0928 for all your kitchen appliance plumbing connections.
Gas Line Installation for Kitchen Appliances
Adding or upgrading a gas range, cooktop, or oven? We size and run the gas line from your meter or existing supply, install shutoff valves, connect the appliance with flexible code-compliant connectors, pressure test the system, and take care of permits and inspections. Learn more about our approach on the gas line services page.
Important: gas line rough-ins must happen before cabinetry installation. Retrofitting gas lines afterward is difficult and messy, so plan this early with your general contractor and our team.
Pot Filler Faucet Setup
Pot fillers mount on the wall behind the stove to make filling pots easier. They need a cold water line run inside the wall at roughly 56–60 inches from the floor and offset about 4 inches from the center of the range. It’s a quick job when walls are open, but we can also carefully install pot fillers in completed kitchens with minimal disruption. Give us a call at 331-260-0928 to review your kitchen’s potential.
Island Sink Drain & Vent Solutions
Installing a sink on an island requires special attention because normal wall venting isn’t an option. Code-compliant solutions include an island loop vent or an air admittance valve (AAV), depending on local requirements. Running water supply lines is straightforward, but routing drains and vents through the floor and subfloor needs experience. We handle island sink plumbing frequently—contact us early to plan your island layout.

- Confirm sink location before demolition: Moving the sink is the priciest plumbing change—set location before ordering cabinets
- Gas line rough-in before cabinetry: Gas runs to islands or new appliance spots must precede cabinet installation
- Pot filler installation before backsplash: It’s easier to open walls prior to tile installation
- Upgrade shutoff valves while accessible: Replace old gate valves with ball valves during plumbing exposure
- Refrigerator water lines before countertops: Running ice maker lines is simpler before counters go in
Kitchen Remodeling Questions Answered
Yes, though it’s one of the most involved kitchen plumbing moves. Island sinks require special venting like an island loop or air admittance valve because normal wall vent stacks aren’t accessible. Running supply lines is straightforward, but drains need careful routing through the floor. We regularly install island sinks—call 331-260-0928 before finalizing your design.
Simple replacements like faucets, disposals, or dishwasher hookups usually don’t need permits. But any changes to drain lines, new supply installations, gas line work, or layout modifications do require permits and inspections. We take care of all the paperwork and coordination for you.
