Professional Kitchen Plumbing Services in Marengo, IL
Whether you need a quick faucet swap, garbage disposal hookup, or a full kitchen plumbing overhaul involving moving sinks, installing gas lines for ranges, or putting in pot fillers, our team is ready to tackle every phase of kitchen remodel plumbing. The job size affects cost, timing, and permit needs, but we take care of it all from start to finish.
Here's a tip from us: bring your plumber onboard early in the remodel, ideally before cabinets go in. Moving sinks means drain lines get rerouted under the floor — best done when subfloor access is available. Gas line installations for ranges or island cooktops require rough-in before cabinet install. And putting in a pot filler means opening up the wall behind the stove, easier before backsplash tiling. Planning plumbing early helps avoid schedule headaches, especially given Illinois’ seasonal weather changes.
We also handle stand-alone kitchen plumbing tasks—like faucet replacement, disposal repairs, dishwasher hookups, or refrigerator water lines—even outside remodels. Kitchen upgrades are also a good time to check your water heater’s capacity and address sluggish drains before closing up cabinets. Give us a call at 779-217-8461 to discuss your kitchen plumbing needs.
Our Kitchen Plumbing Services
Sink & Faucet Setup
We install every sink style: undermount with precise countertop cuts, drop-in, farmhouse/apron-front, single or double bowls, and prep sinks. Our sink installs include drain baskets, strainers, P-traps, and secure water supply connections. We use braided stainless steel lines for durability—no fragile plastic here. When needed, we install and hook up garbage disposals during the same visit.
For faucets, we handle all types and mounting styles—one-hole, three-hole, or deck-mounted. We make sure everything’s sealed and pressure-tested before leaving. If you want to move your sink within the kitchen, that involves rerouting drains, vents, and supply lines. We manage the full process, including permits and inspections.
Dishwasher & Other Appliance Hookups
Dishwasher connections include hot water supply, drain hose installation with high loops or air gaps to prevent backflow, and ensuring the electrical supply is ready (we coordinate with your electrician). For refrigerators with ice makers or water dispensers, we run dedicated cold water lines using copper or braided stainless steel with proper support and accessible shutoff valves.
We also install instant hot water taps, under-sink filtration systems, and reverse osmosis units. RO setups get a dedicated faucet and all necessary supply and waste plumbing. Reach out at 779-217-8461 for any appliance plumbing connections.
Gas Line Installation for Kitchen Appliances
Switching to gas? Adding a cooktop to your island? We size gas lines based on your appliance’s BTU rating, route them neatly from your gas meter or existing lines, install shutoff valves, and connect appliances with code-compliant flexible connectors. We pressure test everything to ensure safety and handle all permits and inspections. Visit our gas line services page for more details.
Remember: gas line rough-ins should be completed before cabinet installation. Trying to add gas lines afterward means tearing into cabinets and walls—best avoided. Coordinate early with us and your contractor.
Pot Filler Faucet Setup
Pot fillers make cooking easier by letting you fill pots at the stove. We run a cold water supply line inside the wall about 56 to 60 inches above the floor, near your cooktop. Installing one is straightforward during remodels when walls are open. For finished kitchens, it involves careful wall opening, patching, and finishing. We handle both with minimal fuss—call 779-217-8461 to explore options.
Island Sink Plumbing & Drain Vent Routing
Plumbing an island sink is trickier due to venting requirements. Normal vent stacks won’t work since drains run through the floor. We install an island loop vent or an air admittance valve (AAV), depending on local codes. Running supply lines is straightforward, but routing drain and vents beneath the subfloor and back up to the island cabinet takes skill. We do island sink setups regularly—let’s talk through your design before you lock in plans.

Kitchen Remodeling FAQ
Yes, but it’s one of the trickier plumbing jobs. Island sinks need special venting like an island loop vent or air admittance valve since you can’t tie into normal wall vents. Running hot and cold supply lines is straightforward, but drain and vent routing under the floor needs careful planning. We’ve installed plenty of island sinks—call us at 779-217-8461 before finalizing your layout.
For simple fixture swaps like a faucet or disposal in the same spot, usually not. But if you’re rerouting drains, adding new supply lines, installing gas lines, or changing layouts, permits are required. We handle the entire permit and inspection process as part of our service.
Absolutely. The best time to run a gas line is during remodels when walls are open. We install, size, pressure test, and permit gas lines for ranges, cooktops, and ovens. Just make sure to schedule this before cabinets get installed.
