Professional Kitchen Plumbing for Remodels in Kaneville, IL
Whether it’s a quick faucet swap or a full kitchen overhaul involving new sink locations, gas line installs, and adding prep sinks, we’ve got the skills to handle it all. The job size influences cost, timeline, and if permits are required. No project is too simple or complex for our crew.
Here’s a tip from my years working around Kaneville homes: get your plumber on the project early, ideally before cabinets are installed. Sink moves require rerouting drains while the floor is open. New gas line installs or pot filler setups depend on wall access before tile or backsplash goes in. Early planning saves headaches and delays.
We also handle single-service calls outside remodels — faucet replacements, garbage disposal repairs, dishwashers, or ice maker hookups. Remodeling is a smart time to check your water heater’s capacity and clear slow kitchen drains before putting cabinets back. Give us a call at 331-704-1361 whenever you need help.
Our Kitchen Plumbing Services
Sink & Faucet Installation
We handle all kitchen sink types: undermounts that coordinate with your countertop, drop-in, farmhouse/apron front, single or double bowls, and prep sinks. Our installation includes drain basket setup, strainers, P-traps, and water supply lines using durable braided stainless steel instead of brittle plastic. Garbage disposal installation is also part of our service.
For faucet installs, we cover all mounting styles and configurations, checking for leaks with pressure testing before wrapping up. If you want to relocate your sink, we’ll rework drain lines, vents, and supplies — complete with permits and inspections as required.
Dishwasher & Appliance Hookups
Dishwasher plumbing involves connecting hot water supply and properly routing the drain with a high loop or air gap to prevent backflow issues. We verify electrical hookups as well, working alongside electricians if needed. For refrigerators with ice makers and water dispensers, we install dedicated water lines with shutoff valves accessible behind the unit.
We also install instant hot water dispensers and under-sink filtration systems, including reverse osmosis units. For RO systems, we install the faucet on your sink deck, connect supply and drain lines, and provide maintenance tips. Give us a call at 331-704-1361 for any appliance connections.
Gas Line Installation for Kitchen Appliances
Upgrading to a gas range or adding a cooktop? We set up gas line rough-ins sized for your appliance’s BTU rating. We run lines from your gas meter or existing supply, install shutoff valves, attach appliances with flexible connectors, pressure test everything, and manage permits and inspections to keep your installation safe and compliant.
Keep in mind, gas line installation should happen before cabinets go in. Trying to run a gas line under finished cabinetry is a real hassle. Coordinate with your builder and us early so we can fit into your schedule.
Pot Filler Faucet Installation
Pot fillers are mounted on the wall near your cooktop, letting you fill pots without lugging water across the kitchen. Installing one means running a cold water line inside the wall about 56–60 inches off the floor, roughly 4 inches from the stove’s centerline. This is easiest during remodeling when walls are open, but we can retrofit existing kitchens too with minimal damage.
Island Sink & Drain Solutions
Island sinks bring unique challenges because their drains can’t tie into wall vents like normal setups. They require an island loop vent or air admittance valve (AAV), depending on local codes. Supply lines are straightforward, but routing drains and vents through the floor and cabinetry takes careful planning. We’ve installed plenty of island sinks around Kaneville and can help you get it right.

Timing Tips for Kitchen Plumbing
- Confirm sink placement before demo: Moving the sink is the priciest plumbing change — lock in location early.
- Complete gas line rough-in before cabinetry: Running gas lines under cabinets is difficult and costly.
- Install pot filler before backsplash: Easier to open walls before tile or backsplash goes in.
- Replace old shutoff valves while exposed: Gate valves wear out; switch to ball valves during remodel.
- Run fridge water line before countertops: Easier to run new lines before countertops are installed.
Kitchen Remodeling Questions — Answered
Yes, that’s doable but requires special venting for the island drain, like an island loop vent or air admittance valve. Water supply lines are straightforward. Drain routing under the floor needs planning. We've installed many island sinks, so call 331-704-1361 to review your design before finalizing plans.
If you’re just replacing fixtures in the same locations — like faucets or disposals — usually no permit is needed. But if you’re moving drains, adding new supply lines, installing gas lines, or changing the layout, permits are definitely required. We take care of all permit applications and inspections as part of the job.
Absolutely. Gas line rough-ins should be done early in the remodel when walls are accessible. We install properly sized, pressure-tested, and permitted gas lines for ranges, cooktops, and ovens to keep things safe and code-compliant. Schedule this before your cabinets are installed.
