Kitchen Plumbing Remodeling Services in Maple Park, IL
Whether you’re making quick updates like swapping faucets and installing a new disposal or tackling a full kitchen overhaul — moving sinks, adding gas lines, or roughing in pot fillers — our crew is ready. The extent of the work influences cost, timing, and if permits are necessary, but no matter the size, we’ve got it covered.
My tip? Schedule your plumber before cabinets are installed. For example, moving the sink means drains and vents must be accessible, ideally before flooring or subfloors are sealed up. Installing a gas line for your new stove or island cooktop needs to happen before cabinetry goes in. Pot fillers require wall access behind the stove, so better to install before backsplashes and tile. Planning ahead helps keep your Maple Park remodeling on track despite Illinois winters and humidity.
We also handle smaller kitchen plumbing projects outside of remodels — faucet repairs, disposal servicing, dishwasher hookups, and refrigerator water lines. If you’re upgrading appliances, it’s a smart time to check your water heater capacity or clear any slow drains before closing everything up. Give us a call at 779-217-8931 to discuss your kitchen plumbing needs.
Our Kitchen Plumbing Expertise
Sink & Faucet Installation
We install all types of kitchen sinks — undermount, drop-in, farmhouse/apron-front, single or double bowls, plus prep sinks. The job includes attaching the drain basket, strainer, P-trap, and connecting braided stainless steel supply lines (no brittle plastic lines here). We also install and hook up garbage disposals whenever needed.
For faucets, we work with any mounting setup — one-hole, three-hole, or deck-plate. Each faucet is pressure-tested to ensure no leaks. If you want to relocate your sink, we manage the entire reroute of drains, vents, and water lines, securing all necessary permits.
Dishwasher & Appliance Connections
We connect dishwashers with hot water lines, proper drain routing featuring high loops or air gaps to prevent backflow, and confirm electrical compatibility with your electrician. Refrigerator ice makers and water dispensers get dedicated cold water lines, securely run with shutoffs accessible behind the unit.
Other appliance services include instant hot water dispensers and under-sink filtration or reverse osmosis systems. For RO setups, we install specialized faucets, hook up supply and waste lines, and offer maintenance advice. Call us anytime at 779-217-8931 for appliance plumbing.
Gas Lines for Kitchen Appliances
Planning a gas range or cooktop? We install gas piping sized properly for your appliance’s BTU requirements, run it from the meter or existing supply, add shutoff valves, connect appliances using code-compliant flexible connectors, and perform pressure tests. Permits and inspections are part of our streamlined process. Check our gas line services page for details.
Important: Gas lines must be roughed in before cabinets go up, especially for islands. Once cabinetry is installed, retrofitting gas lines gets complicated and messy. Coordinate early with your builder and us.
Pot Filler Faucet Installation
A pot filler faucet offers hands-free water right above your stove, cutting down trips back and forth with heavy pots. Installing one means running a cold water line inside the wall about 56 to 60 inches off the floor and just beside the cooking surface. It's straightforward during open wall remodels but requires cutting and patching in finished kitchens. Contact us to explore what fits your space and budget.
Island Sink Installation & Drain Venting
An island sink adds style but complicates plumbing since venting can’t tie into the wall like usual. We install island loop vents or air admittance valves (AAVs), depending on local codes. Running supply lines to the island is simple, but the drainage and vent piping through the floor and back up involves careful planning. We’ve done plenty of these setups in Maple Park homes — call us for input before you finalize your design.

Timing Tips for Kitchen Plumbing
- Confirm sink location before demolition: Moving the sink is a major plumbing job—make sure it’s final before ordering cabinets.
- Gas line rough-in before cabinetry: Gas pipes must be installed before cabinets go in, especially for island appliances.
- Pot filler before tile backsplash: Easier to open and patch walls before backsplash installation.
- Upgrade shutoff valves while accessible: Replace old gate valves with ball valves during remodel to avoid future leaks and failures.
- Refrigerator water lines before countertops: Running water lines before countertop installation simplifies the process.
Frequently Asked Questions About Kitchen Plumbing
