Professional Kitchen Plumbing Services in Orland Park, IL
Kitchen plumbing can be a quick fix like swapping out a faucet or hooking up a new disposal, or a larger job involving relocating a sink, adding gas lines for a range, installing a pot filler, or roughing in additional prep sinks. The scale of work affects cost, timing, and permit needs. No matter the size, our team is ready to get it done right.
Here’s a tip from years of experience: bring in your plumber before cabinetry is installed. If the sink moves, we need access to reroute drains and water lines under the subfloor. Installing a gas line for a stove or island cooktop has to happen before cabinets go in, too. Pot fillers require opening the wall behind the stove – much easier before backsplash tile goes up. Scheduling plumbing work early avoids costly delays down the line.
Besides remodels, we also handle kitchen plumbing repairs and upgrades like faucet installation, disposal repairs, dishwasher hookups, and refrigerator water lines. Kitchen remodel time is also perfect to check your water heater’s capacity and fix any slow drains before everything gets covered up. Give us a ring at 708-734-6731 for all your kitchen plumbing needs.
Our Kitchen Plumbing Services
Sink & Faucet Installation
We install all kinds of kitchen sinks: undermount (cutouts coordinated with your countertop), drop-in, farmhouse/apron-front, single or double bowl, and prep sinks. Our work includes assembling the drain basket and strainer, fitting the P-trap, and hooking up water supply lines using durable braided stainless steel hoses instead of fragile plastic. We also install and connect garbage disposals during the same visit if needed.
Faucets? We handle every style and handle all mounting types — one-hole, three-hole, or deck-plate. Everything is pressure-tested before we finish. Moving a sink to a new spot is a bigger job involving rerouting drains, vents, and extending water lines — we take care of the permits and inspections for these as well.
Dishwasher & Appliance Plumbing
Dishwasher installation includes hooking up the hot water supply and routing the drain with a proper high loop or air gap to prevent backflow contamination. While we don’t handle electrical wiring, we make sure plumbing connections are ready for your electrician to finish. For refrigerators with ice makers or water dispensers, we run dedicated water lines with shutoff valves behind the appliance, using copper or braided stainless piping secured properly.
We also set up instant hot water dispensers, under-sink water filtration, and reverse osmosis systems. RO installs include faucet mounting, supply and waste line connections, plus guidance on filter changes. Reach out at 708-734-6731 for any appliance plumbing you need in your kitchen.
Gas Line Installation for Kitchen Appliances
Converting from electric to gas or adding a gas cooktop? We install new gas lines sized to your appliance’s BTU requirements, running from the gas meter or main supply line. We fit shutoff valves, connect appliances with flexible, code-approved piping, and pressure test everything. Permits and inspections? We handle those, too. Check out our gas line services page for more.
Important: gas piping to new appliance locations or islands must be roughed in before cabinets go in. After cabinetry installation, routing gas lines becomes tricky and invasive. Coordinate this early with your general contractor and our crew to keep the job smooth.
Pot Filler Faucet Installation
A pot filler faucet mounts to the wall behind the stove, letting you fill pots without carrying heavy water across the kitchen. We run a cold water line inside the wall about 56 to 60 inches from the floor and near the stove’s edge. Installing during a remodel is straightforward because the walls are open. For finished kitchens, we carefully cut the wall, install the line, then patch and finish the surface. Contact us at 708-734-6731 to discuss your setup.
Island Sink Drain & Vent Solutions
Island sinks are more complicated than wall sinks since their drain can’t connect directly to the usual wall vent stack. We install island loop vents or air admittance valves (AAV) depending on local codes. Running hot and cold supply lines to the island is straightforward, but routing drains and vents under the subfloor and back up through the island cabinetry takes careful planning and know-how. We handle island plumbing frequently — reach out before you finalize your island design.

Timing Tips for Kitchen Plumbing
- Finalize sink location before demolition: Moving sinks is the costliest plumbing change — confirm spot before ordering cabinets
- Install gas lines before cabinetry: Gas piping to islands or new appliance locations must go in before cabinets
- Pot filler faucet before backsplash: Wall opening is simpler before tile installation
- Upgrade shutoff valves while plumbing is exposed: Replace old gate valves with modern ball valves during rough-in
- Run refrigerator water lines before countertops: Easier to install before counters are set in place
Your Kitchen Remodeling Questions Answered
Yes, but it’s one of the more involved plumbing tasks because island sinks need special venting—either an island loop vent or an air admittance valve depending on code. Running hot and cold water lines is straightforward, but routing the drain through the floor to vent properly requires detailed planning. We’ve handled many island sink installs—call us at 708-734-6731 to review your floor plan before finalizing your island design.
If you’re just swapping fixtures like a faucet or disposal in the same spot, most of the time no permit is required. But if you’re rerouting drain lines, adding new supply piping, installing gas lines, or changing the layout, permits are usually mandatory. We take care of securing permits and scheduling inspections so you don’t have to worry.
Absolutely. We install gas lines for ranges, cooktops, and ovens, sizing the pipe correctly and following all safety codes. Pressure testing and permits are part of our process. It’s best done during remodels when walls are open — schedule this before your cabinets go in to avoid costly changes later.
