Comprehensive Kitchen Plumbing Services in Cary, IL
Kitchen plumbing in a remodel can be as quick as swapping out a faucet or hooking up a new disposal, or as involved as relocating sinks to islands, running new gas lines for stoves, adding prep sinks in pantries, or roughing in pot fillers. The size of the job affects the timeline, cost, and permit needs. No matter the scale, we’re ready to take it on.
If you call us at 224-487-8439, my recommendation is to schedule your plumber early—before cabinets arrive. Moving the sink means rerouting drains while the subfloor is accessible. Gas line installations for cooktops or ranges must happen before cabinetry installation. Pot filler faucets require opening the wall behind the stove, much easier before backsplash tile goes on. Early plumber involvement can save headaches later in your project.
We also perform kitchen plumbing repairs and upgrades outside of remodels—such as faucet replacements, disposal repairs, dishwasher hook-ups, and refrigerator water line installations. Remodeling is also a great time to make sure your water heater can keep up with new demands, and to clear any slow drains before everything gets closed up. Call 224-487-8439 anytime for help.
Our Kitchen Plumbing Services
Sink & Faucet Installation
We handle all kinds of kitchen sinks—undermounts that require precise countertop cutouts, drop-in models, farmhouse aprons, single and double bowls, and prep sinks. Installation covers the drain basket, strainer, P-trap, and water supply lines. We use durable braided stainless steel supply tubing, not brittle plastic lines prone to cracking. We also install and hook up garbage disposals during the same visit when needed.
For faucets, we set up various types, make sure mounting holes and deck plates are correct, and pressure test everything before we finish. Moving a sink to a new spot involves additional work rerouting drains and vents, which we manage fully—permitting included.
Dishwasher & Appliance Hookups
Connecting dishwashers means hooking up hot water lines, routing drain hoses with the proper high loop or air gap to prevent backflow, and ensuring electrical supply is safe (we coordinate with electricians). For refrigerators with ice makers or water dispensers, we run dedicated cold water lines using quality materials, routed carefully with shutoff valves accessible behind the appliance.
We also install hot water dispensers, under-sink filters, and reverse osmosis systems. For RO units, we'll install a separate faucet on the sink deck, connect supply and drain lines, and discuss filter upkeep. For any appliance plumbing needs, give us a call at 224-487-8439.
Gas Line Installation for Appliances
Upgrading to a gas range or adding a cooktop? We install gas lines sized to the appliance’s BTU requirements, routed from your gas meter or existing supply. We install shutoff valves, use code-compliant flexible connectors, and pressure test for safety. Permits and inspections are part of our standard process. For full details, visit our gas line services page.
Note: gas line rough-ins must be done before cabinets go in, especially for islands or relocated appliances. Running gas lines after cabinetry is installed is disruptive and costly. Coordinate with your general contractor and us early to avoid issues.
Pot Filler Faucet Installation
Pot fillers mount on the wall above your stove, making it easy to fill large pots without carrying water across the kitchen. We run a cold water supply line inside the wall at roughly 56 to 60 inches from the floor, about 4 inches offset from the stove center. This is straightforward to do during a remodel when walls are open; installing in finished kitchens involves opening walls and patching afterward. Call 224-487-8439 to discuss your situation.
Island Sink Drain and Vent Systems
Island sinks are trickier because their drains can’t connect to a wall vent as usual. To keep drains flowing and odors out, we install an island loop vent or an air admittance valve (AAV), depending on local codes. Running hot and cold water supply lines to the island is straightforward, but venting and drain connections require careful planning and routing through the floor and subfloor. We’ve done many island sink installations and can help you plan yours before finalizing your kitchen layout.

Timing Tips for Kitchen Plumbing
- Confirm sink placement first: Moving sinks is costly—lock in location before demolition and ordering cabinets.
- Gas line before cabinets: Install new gas lines prior to cabinetry installation for easier access and routing.

- Replace shutoff valves while exposed: Swap out aging gate valves for reliable ball valves during remodel.
- Run fridge water lines early: Easier to install ice maker lines before countertops are set.
Frequently Asked Questions About Kitchen Plumbing
Yes, but it’s the most involved plumbing change in a kitchen remodel. Island sinks require special venting like an island loop vent or an air admittance valve (AAV) to function properly. Running supply lines is usually straightforward, but routing drain and vents through the floor takes careful work. We’ve installed plenty of island sinks in this area and can guide you through the process. Give us a call at 224-487-8439.
Simple replacements of fixtures like faucets or disposals usually don’t require permits. But if you’re changing drain lines, adding new supply lines, installing or moving gas lines, or changing the kitchen layout, permits and inspections are legally required. We take care of all permitting and inspection coordination so you don’t have to.
We do. It’s best to install gas lines during a remodel when walls are open. Our technicians size lines correctly, pressure test everything for safety, and pull permits. Scheduling the gas rough-in before cabinets go in prevents costly retrofitting later.
Absolutely. We partner with general contractors and designers to fit our work around your project timeline. Whether it’s rough-in or finish plumbing, we coordinate permits and inspections to keep everything on schedule. Get us involved early by calling 224-487-8439.
