Kitchen Plumbing Services for Remodels in Crest Hill, IL
Whether you need a quick faucet swap or a full plumbing setup for a kitchen overhaul, we've got you covered. Tasks range from installing sinks, hooking up disposals, and connecting dishwashers to running new gas lines for ranges or prepping pot fillers. The complexity of your project controls the schedule, cost, and whether permits apply. We take care of everything so you don’t have to worry.
Here’s a tip from me: involve the plumber early—before your cabinets arrive. If you’re changing the sink’s position, the drain and supply lines have to be rerouted while the floor is open. Gas lines for cooktops or island ranges must go in early too. The pot filler faucet needs wall access before backsplash tiles go up. Getting your plumber in early prevents costly delays later on.
We also handle stand-alone repairs and installations in existing kitchens—faucet swaps, disposal repairs, dishwasher hookups, and refrigeration water line installs. If you’re remodeling, it’s smart to check if your water heater can keep up with new appliances or to clear any slow drains before everything’s sealed up. Call us at 779-600-2704 anytime.
Kitchen Plumbing Work We Specialize In
Sink and Faucet Installation
We install all types of kitchen sinks—from undermounts that require careful countertop cuts to farmhouse aprons, drop-in, single or double bowls, and prep sinks. We assemble drain parts: strainers, baskets, and P-traps. Supply lines get braided stainless steel fittings, not cheap plastic that fails. We also install and hook up garbage disposals during the same visit when needed.
Faucet installs come in every style and mounting layout—whether a single hole, triple hole, or deck plate. We test everything under pressure before wrapping up. Planning to move your sink? That involves rerouting drains and vents plus extending supply lines—a bigger job that requires permits and inspections, but we manage it all smoothly.
Dishwasher and Appliance Plumbing
Connecting a dishwasher means installing the hot water supply, routing the drain hose with a proper high loop or air gap to prevent backflow, and checking the electrical setup (we coordinate with electricians). For refrigerators with ice makers or water dispensers, we run dedicated cold water lines using copper or braided stainless piping with accessible shutoff valves behind the fridge.
We also set up instant hot water taps, under-sink filtration systems, and reverse osmosis units. For RO, we cut and install a special faucet on your sink and connect supply and drain lines. Give us a call at 779-600-2704 for any appliance plumbing needs in your kitchen.
Gas Line Installation for Kitchen Appliances
Switching to gas or adding a cooktop? We size and install gas lines tailored to your appliance’s BTU requirements, route the pipe from your meter or existing feed, mount shutoff valves, connect with code-compliant flexible connectors, and pressure-test for safety. We handle all permits and inspections to keep things above board. Check out our gas line services page for details.
Heads-up: if a new gas line goes to an island or new appliance location, that rough-in has to happen before cabinets go in. Trying to run gas lines afterward means cutting into cabinetry and floors—something you want to avoid. Coordinate this early with your GC and us.
Pot Filler Faucet Installation
A pot filler faucet mounted on the wall above your stove lets you fill pots without carrying heavy containers across the kitchen. Adding one requires running a cold water line inside the wall about 56 to 60 inches off the floor, roughly 4 inches off-center from your range. Best done during remodels with open walls, but we can retrofit finished kitchens with careful wall work. Call us at 779-600-2704 to go over your options.
Island Sink Drain and Vent Setup
Installing a sink on an island is trickier because you don’t have a wall vent nearby. We use island loops or air admittance valves (AAV) depending on local codes to make sure your drain vents properly. Running hot and cold supply lines to the island is straightforward; the challenge lies in routing the drain and vent lines through the floor and up inside the island cabinetry. We've done plenty of island plumbing—call to chat about your plans before finalizing your kitchen layout.

- Run fridge water lines early: Better to install ice maker water lines before countertops are set.
