Plumbing Services for Kitchen Remodeling in Midlothian, IL
Whether you’re simply swapping out a faucet and hooking up a new garbage disposal or undertaking a full kitchen remodel that involves moving sinks, adding gas lines, or installing pot fillers, we’ve got you covered. Jobs vary from a few hours to several days depending on complexity, and permits may be necessary. No matter the scale, our team handles every plumbing task confidently.
When planning your remodel, I recommend scheduling plumbing work early—before cabinets are installed. Relocating a sink means rerouting drains and vents which is much easier with the subfloor exposed. Adding a gas line for an island cooktop requires rough-in before cabinetry goes up. Pot filler installation involves opening the wall behind your stove, so it’s best done before tile or backsplash work. Booking us early can save headaches and delays down the line.
We also provide stand-alone kitchen plumbing services like faucet replacements, disposal repairs, dishwasher hookups, or refrigerator water line installations — even without a full remodel. Plus, it’s a good chance to check your water heater’s capacity or clear slow kitchen drains before you seal everything up. Reach out at 708-734-6519 anytime for kitchen plumbing help.
Our Comprehensive Kitchen Plumbing Services
Kitchen Sink & Faucet Installation
We expertly install all sink types—undermount (coordinating with countertop cuts), drop-in, apron-front farmhouse, single or double bowls, and prep sinks. Installation includes assembling drain baskets, strainers, P-traps, and secure water supply connections. For supply lines, we use braided stainless steel tubing to avoid issues with brittle plastic lines. When appropriate, we also install and connect garbage disposals during the same visit.
Installing faucets of every style and configuration—1-hole, 3-hole, or deck-mounted—is standard practice. We pressure-test for leaks before finishing. Moving a sink to a new spot requires rerouting drains, adjusting vent pipes, and extending supply lines—a job we handle with all necessary permits and inspections.
Dishwasher & Appliance Hookups
Dishwasher connections include hot water supply, proper drain routing with a high loop or air gap to prevent contamination, and coordination with your electrician to ensure power is sufficient. For refrigerators with ice makers or water dispensers, we run a dedicated cold water line from your closest supply using copper or braided stainless steel, complete with an accessible shutoff valve behind your fridge.
We also install hot water dispensers and under-sink water filtration or reverse osmosis systems, including faucet installations and waste line hookups. Maintaining your filters is simpler with our help—call us at 708-734-6519 for any appliance plumbing needs.
Gas Line Installation for Kitchen Appliances
Planning to switch to gas or add a gas cooktop? We install new gas lines sized precisely for your appliance’s BTU demand. Our work includes routing pipe from your gas meter or existing line, installing shutoff valves, connecting with flexible code-approved fittings, testing for leaks, and managing permits and inspections. Visit our gas line services page to learn more about our safety process.
Important to note: gas line rough-in should happen before cabinetry installation. Running gas lines after cabinets are in place is tricky and disruptive. We’ll work with your general contractor and you to schedule the gas work at the right time.
Pot Filler Faucet Installation
A pot filler faucet mounted above your stove makes filling large pots convenient, eliminating trips across the kitchen. Installing one involves running a dedicated cold water line inside the wall behind the range at about 56 to 60 inches from the floor and roughly 4 inches off-center. This is straightforward during remodeling when walls are open; in finished kitchens, it requires careful wall opening and patching. Contact us at 708-734-6519 to discuss options for your home.
Island Sink Installation and Drain Venting
Island sinks present unique plumbing challenges because typical venting through a nearby wall isn’t possible. Solutions include installing an island loop vent or an air admittance valve (AAV), depending on local code. While running hot and cold water supply to the island is straightforward, routing the drain and vent pipes beneath the floor and back up requires precision. We’ve installed many island sinks and can guide you on code-compliant venting and layout before finalizing your plans.

Kitchen Remodeling Questions We Hear Often
Yes, but this is one of the more intricate plumbing tasks. Island sinks need special venting solutions like an island loop vent or an air admittance valve per local codes. Running supply lines is straightforward, but routing drains through the floor requires detailed planning. We’re experienced with island sink installs—give us a call at 708-734-6519 so we can help you get the setup right before finalizing your design.
If you're just replacing fixtures in the same spot—like a faucet, disposal, or dishwasher hookup—permits often aren’t needed. However, any work involving drain line changes, routing new supply lines, gas piping installations, or moving plumbing fixtures will require permits. We take care of pulling permits and scheduling inspections, so you don’t have to worry.
