Kitchen Plumbing Services for Remodels in Beecher, IL
Updating your kitchen’s plumbing can be a quick fix—like swapping out a faucet or hooking up a new garbage disposal—or a bigger job involving moving sinks to islands, installing gas lines for ranges, or adding specialty features like pot fillers. The scale of the work impacts the schedule, cost, and whether permits are needed. No matter the size, our team tackles it all efficiently.
Here’s a tip for your remodel: get your plumber involved before cabinet installation. If you’re relocating the sink, the drain reroute should be done while the floor is exposed. Gas line installations for ranges or islands are best completed before cabinetry goes in. Pot fillers require wall access behind the stove, which is simpler without tile or backsplash in place. Planning ahead with us saves headaches and keeps your project on track.
We also handle standalone kitchen plumbing jobs outside of remodels—like faucet swaps, garbage disposal repairs, or installing a refrigerator water line. Plus, remodeling is a great time to check that your water heater can meet new demands and to clear out sluggish kitchen drains before sealing up cabinets again. Call us anytime at 708-787-3196.
Our Kitchen Plumbing Services
Sink & Faucet Installation
We install a variety of kitchen sinks: undermount (coordinating with your countertop fabricator), drop-in, farmhouse/apron front, single or double bowl, and prep sinks. Each sink setup includes the drain assembly, strainer, P-trap, and braided stainless steel supply lines for durability. We also install garbage disposals during the same visit when needed.
For faucets, we handle all mounting types—single-hole, three-hole, or deck-plate—and test every installation under water pressure before wrapping up. Moving a sink to a new spot involves rerouting drains and vents plus extending supply lines—we manage it all with permits and inspections included.
Dishwasher and Appliance Hookups
Hooking up your dishwasher includes connecting hot water supply, routing the drain hose with a high loop or air gap to prevent backflow, and confirming the electrical setup’s readiness (we coordinate with electricians as needed). For refrigerator ice makers and water dispensers, we’ll run a dedicated cold water line from the nearest source, installed to code with an accessible shutoff behind the fridge.
We also install under-sink water filtration, instant hot water dispensers, and reverse osmosis systems, including faucet installs and waste line connections. Contact us at 708-787-3196 for any kitchen appliance plumbing needs.
Gas Lines for Kitchen Equipment
Switching to gas or adding a cooktop to your island? We size and install gas lines correctly, running them from your meter or supply point, installing shutoff valves, attaching flexible connectors, pressure testing for safety, and managing permits and inspections. See our gas line services page for details.
It’s key to schedule gas line installation before cabinets go in, especially when running lines to islands where routing afterward is tricky and disruptive. Coordinate early with your general contractor and us to avoid delays.
Pot Filler Faucet Installation
A pot filler faucet mounted above your stove lets you fill pots without lugging them from the sink. Installing one means running a cold water line inside the wall about 56 to 60 inches off the floor near the cooktop. This is easiest during a remodel with open walls but we can add pot fillers in finished kitchens too, although it takes extra work cutting and patching walls. Call 708-787-3196 to talk through your setup.
Island Sink Drain and Vent Solutions
Island sinks are trickier because their drains can’t tie into wall vents the normal way. They require an island loop vent or an air admittance valve (AAV) as allowed by local code. Running hot and cold supply lines is straightforward, but routing drains and vents beneath the floor and into the island cabinet requires careful planning. We’ve handled plenty of island plumbing setups and can guide you on the best approach for your kitchen design.

Kitchen Remodeling FAQs
Yes, but it’s a complex job because island sinks need special venting solutions like an island loop vent or an air admittance valve (AAV). Running the water supply is simpler, but planning the drain and vent routing under the floor is critical. We’ve done plenty of island plumbing and can guide you through the process. Call 708-787-3196 before finalizing your island layout.
For simple fixture swaps like faucets or disposals, a permit is usually not required. However, if you’re rerouting drains, installing new supply lines, moving plumbing locations, or adding gas lines, permits and inspections are required. We handle all permitting and inspection coordination so you don’t have to worry.
Absolutely. Installing a gas line is best done while walls and floors are open during a remodel. We size and install gas lines for ranges, ovens, and cooktops, perform safety tests, and manage permits. Schedule this before cabinets are installed to avoid costly rework.
