Comprehensive Kitchen Plumbing in Bartlett, IL
Kitchen plumbing during a remodel can be anything from swapping out a faucet and hooking up a new disposal to full-scale projects like relocating the sink to an island, installing new gas lines for your stove, adding a prep sink in a pantry, or roughing in a pot filler faucet. The work scope influences pricing, scheduling, and whether permits are necessary. Whatever you need, our team is equipped to deliver.
When you call us at 630-749-9809, I always tell folks to bring the plumber in early. Plumbing rough-ins should be done before cabinets arrive — especially if you’re moving your sink since rerouting the drain is best done with open access beneath the subfloor. New gas lines for islands or cooktops are ideally roughed in before cabinetry is set, and pot filler installation calls for the wall to be open before backsplash tile goes up. Scheduling your plumber at the start saves headaches later on.
We also offer individual kitchen plumbing repairs and installations outside remodeling: faucet replacements, garbage disposal service, dishwasher connections, and refrigerator water line installations. Remodeling is also a great time to have us check your water heater capacity and clear any sluggish kitchen drains before closing everything up. Call 630-749-9809 for all your kitchen plumbing needs.
Our Kitchen Plumbing Services
Kitchen Sink & Faucet Installation
We work with all kitchen sink styles: undermount (which requires precise countertop cutouts), drop-in, farmhouse/apron-front, single and double bowls, plus prep sinks. Installation covers drain basket assembly, strainers, P-traps, and water supply connections. We use braided stainless steel supply lines instead of unreliable plastic ones that crack over time. Garbage disposals can be installed at the same time to keep your kitchen functional.
Faucet setups include all mount types (1-hole, 3-hole, deck plate), and we pressure-test everything to ensure no leaks. Need your sink moved? That involves plumbing reroutes—drain lines, venting, and supply extensions—which we handle fully, including all permits and inspections.
Dishwasher & Appliance Hookups
Dishwasher installation means connecting the hot water line and routing the drain hose with a high loop or air gap to prevent backflow. We verify the electrical setup is up to code (we’ll coordinate with your electrician). For fridge ice makers and water dispensers, we run dedicated water lines from the nearest source using copper or braided stainless with accessible shutoff valves behind the unit.
We can also install instant hot water dispensers and under-sink filtration or reverse osmosis systems. For RO units, we handle faucet installation, supply and waste line hookups, and provide guidance on filter maintenance. Reach out at 630-749-9809 for any kitchen appliance plumbing.
Gas Line Installation for Kitchen Appliances
Switching to gas cooking or adding a cooktop on an island? We install new gas lines sized to match your appliance’s BTU load, route piping from your gas meter or supply point, install shutoff valves, connect appliances using code-compliant flexible lines, conduct pressure tests, and handle all permit and inspection requirements. Visit our gas line services page to learn more about safety and process.
Important to note: new gas line rough-ins must happen before cabinetry goes in. Retrofitting gas lines after cabinets are installed is tough and costly. Coordinate with your general contractor and plumber early on to avoid delays.
Pot Filler Faucet Installation
A pot filler is a convenient wall-mounted faucet above your stove that lets you fill large pots without carrying them across the kitchen. We run a cold water line inside the wall about 56 to 60 inches above the floor, roughly four inches off the stove centerline. It’s easiest while walls are open during remodeling, but we can also install one in finished kitchens with some careful wall patching and touch-up work. Call us at 630-749-9809 to plan your pot filler install.
Island Sink Plumbing & Drain Venting
Installing a sink in a kitchen island is one of the trickier plumbing jobs because you can’t tie into a wall vent stack the usual way. Island sinks need a special vent method—a loop vent or an air admittance valve (AAV)—depending on local codes. Water supply is simple, but drain and vent pipes must be carefully run beneath the subfloor and back up through the island cabinetry. We’ve handled plenty of these setups and can help you design the best approach.

Timing Tips for Kitchen Plumbing
- Set sink location before demolition: Sink moves are costly — lock in placement before ordering cabinets
- Rough in gas lines before cabinetry: Installing gas lines for islands or relocated ranges should be done ahead of cabinet installation
- Install pot fillers before backsplash: It’s much easier to open walls before tile work begins
- Replace old shutoffs when accessible: Swap out aging gate valves with durable ball valves while plumbing is exposed
- Run fridge water lines before countertops: Easier to install before counters are in place
Kitchen Remodeling FAQ
Yes, but it’s one of the more complex plumbing changes. Island sinks need special venting, either an island loop vent or an air admittance valve, depending on local codes. Running supply lines to the island is straightforward, but the drain and vent lines require careful routing through and under the floor. We have plenty of experience with this. Give us a call at 630-749-9809 to plan your island setup before finalizing your design.
If you’re just replacing fixtures in the same spot—like a faucet or disposal—permits generally aren’t required. But if you’re moving drains, installing new supply lines, running gas piping, or changing the plumbing layout, permits are mandatory. We take care of all permitting and inspections as part of our service.
Yes, and doing this during a remodel is ideal because walls are open and accessible. We install gas lines for ranges, cooktops, and ovens, sizing and pressure testing them to code. We also handle all permits. Be sure to schedule gas line rough-ins before cabinet installation to avoid costly rework. See our gas line services for details.
