Expert Kitchen Plumbing Services in Dundee, IL
Whether you need a quick faucet swap, hooking up a new disposal, or a full kitchen plumbing overhaul including relocating the sink, installing a gas line for your stove, or adding a pot filler, we have the skills and experience to get it done right. The complexity of your project influences the price and schedule, and we’ll guide you through the necessary permits and inspections.
My recommendation when remodeling: call us early, before cabinets arrive. Moving sinks means the drain and supply lines must be adjusted with the subfloor exposed. Gas line rough-in for your range or island cooktop has to be done before cabinetry goes in. Pot fillers need the wall behind your stove opened, so pre-backsplash installation is ideal. Getting plumbing done early helps keep your project on track through all those Illinois seasonal changes.
We also take service calls for kitchen plumbing outside of remodeling projects — faucet replacements, disposal repairs, dishwasher hookups, refrigerator water line installs — just give us a call at 224-293-6701. Remodeling is also a good time to check if your water heater can handle new kitchen loads and to clear out slow drains before cabinets are reinstalled.
Complete Kitchen Plumbing Solutions
Sink & Faucet Installations
We work with all sink styles: undermount (which requires precise countertop cuts), drop-in, apron-front farmhouse, single or double bowls, and prep sinks. Our installation includes drain baskets, strainers, P-traps, plus hot and cold braided stainless supply lines — no plastic tubing that cracks. When needed, we add or replace garbage disposals during the same visit.
Faucets? We handle all types and mounting styles—single-hole, three-hole, deck-plate—and ensure everything is tested under pressure before handing it off. Moving the sink location is a bigger job involving drain rerouting, vent changes, and supply extension, but that’s all in our wheelhouse with proper permits and inspections.
Dishwasher & Appliance Plumbing
Dishwasher setup means connecting hot water supply lines and routing drains with a high loop or air gap to prevent backflow. We also check with your electrician about power to make sure everything works smoothly. For refrigerators with ice makers or water dispensers, we run dedicated cold water lines using either copper or stainless steel tubing, complete with shutoff valves placed conveniently behind the appliance.
Beyond that, we install instant hot water taps, under-sink filtration systems, and reverse osmosis units. For RO systems, we fit the faucet, hook up supply and drain lines, and guide you on filter upkeep. Call us at 224-293-6701 for any appliance plumbing needs.
Gas Line Installations
Switching to gas? We install new lines for ranges, ovens, and cooktops, carefully sizing pipes to match your appliance’s BTU rating. We run the line from your gas meter or existing supply, install shutoff valves, connect the appliance with approved flexible connectors, test the system for leaks, and handle permitting and inspections to keep everything safe and code-compliant.
Important note: gas line rough-ins for islands or new locations must happen before cabinetry goes in. Trying to add gas lines after cabinets are installed is a headache and often involves tearing things apart. Plan ahead with your general contractor and us for smooth installation.
Pot Filler Faucet Installation
A pot filler faucet mounted above your stove saves you from carrying heavy pots of water across the kitchen. Installing one requires running a cold water line inside the wall about 56 to 60 inches off the floor and slightly offset from the stove centerline. It’s an easy addition during a remodel, but if your kitchen is finished, we can still install one with careful wall access and repair afterward. Reach out at 224-293-6701 to talk specifics.
Island Sink Plumbing & Drain Venting
Island sinks bring unique challenges because you can’t vent drains through a nearby wall stack. We use approved methods like island loop vents or air admittance valves (AAVs), depending on local codes. Hot and cold water lines are run to the island from the nearest supply, but drains have to be routed carefully under the floor and back up into the island. We handle these intricate layouts routinely—call us early to plan your island plumbing right.

Timing Advice for Kitchen Plumbing
- Confirm sink location before demo: Moving the sink is one of the priciest plumbing changes, so finalize placement before ordering cabinets.
- Complete gas line rough-in before cabinets: Gas piping must be in place before cabinetry goes up.
- Install pot filler before backsplash: Easier to open walls before tile or backsplash is installed.
- Replace shutoff valves while accessible: Old gate valves tend to fail—swap them out for ball valves during remodeling for reliability.
- Run refrigerator water line before countertops: Easier to install ice maker lines before the counters are set.
Common Questions About Kitchen Remodeling Plumbing
Yes, moving the sink to an island is possible but it’s one of the most complex plumbing tasks because it requires special venting — typically an island loop vent or an air admittance valve (AAV). Running water supply is straightforward, but the drain routing must go through the floor and back up to the island cabinet. We’ve handled many island sink installs; call us at 224-293-6701 for advice before you finalize your plans.
Small jobs like replacing faucets, disposals, or hooking up dishwashers in the same location usually don’t require permits. But if you’re rerouting drains, installing new supply lines, adding gas lines, or changing the kitchen plumbing layout, permits are mandatory. We take care of the entire permitting and inspection process to keep everything compliant.
