Professional Kitchen Remodel Plumbing Services in Hoffman Estates, IL
Kitchen plumbing during a remodel can be straightforward—like swapping out a faucet or hooking up a new garbage disposal—or more complex, such as relocating your sink to an island, installing a gas line for a range, or adding a prep sink. The scope drives the cost, schedule, and whether permits are necessary. No matter the job, our team has you covered.
When you reach out to us at 224-268-9995, my best tip is to call before cabinets are installed. Moving your sink means drain and vent lines need access under the floor or behind walls. Running a gas line for a new stove or island cooktop has to happen before cabinetry goes in. Pot filler faucets require wall access behind the stove, easier before backsplash tile is up. Scheduling the plumber early can save headaches and delays in your Illinois kitchen project.
We also handle kitchen plumbing repairs and installations outside of remodels — faucet replacements, garbage disposal services, dishwasher hookups, and refrigerator water lines. And kitchen remodels are a good time to inspect your water heater capacity and clear any slow kitchen drains before the new finishes go in. Give us a call at 224-268-9995 for all your kitchen plumbing needs.
Our Kitchen Plumbing Services
Sink & Faucet Installation
We install every type of kitchen sink—undermount sinks that require precise countertop coordination, drop-in styles, farmhouse/apron-front sinks, single or double bowls, and prep sinks. Our sink installs include assembling the drain basket, strainer, P-trap, and connecting water supplies. We use durable braided stainless steel lines for supply connections to avoid the cracking issues common with plastic lines. When needed, we also install garbage disposals during the same visit.
For faucets, we handle all mounting styles—whether it’s a single-hole, three-hole, or deck-mounted setup—and thoroughly pressure test to ensure no leaks. If you want to relocate your sink, that's a bigger job involving rerouting drains, changing vents, and extending water lines, with all necessary permits and inspections handled by our team.
Dishwasher & Appliance Hookups
Hooking up a dishwasher means connecting the hot water supply, routing the drain hose with a high loop or air gap to prevent backflow contamination, and confirming the electrical setup is appropriate (we coordinate with electricians as needed). For refrigerators with ice makers or water dispensers, we run a dedicated shutoff valve and water line—using copper or stainless steel tubing—securely fastened behind the fridge.
We also install instant hot water dispensers, under-sink filtration units, and reverse osmosis (RO) systems. RO systems require mounting a separate faucet on the sink deck, connecting supply and drain lines, and we’ll advise on ongoing filter maintenance. Call us at 224-268-9995 to get your kitchen appliances properly plumbed.
Gas Lines for Cooking Appliances
Switching to gas? Adding a cooktop on your island? We install gas lines sized specifically for your appliance’s BTUs, route the piping from your gas meter or existing line, install a code-compliant shutoff valve, connect with approved flexible connectors, pressure-test the system, and handle all necessary permits and inspections. Our gas line services page has more on our approach to safety and compliance.
Important: Gas line rough-in must happen before cabinetry is installed. Running gas lines afterward is a real hassle and can be disruptive. We recommend planning this early with your general contractor and us to keep your project on track.
Pot Filler Faucet Installation
A pot filler faucet mounts above your stove to make filling pots easy without lugging them from the sink. Installing one means running a cold water supply line inside the wall about 56 to 60 inches above the floor, usually just off-center from the range. It’s a straightforward job if walls are open during a remodel, but we can also add pot fillers in finished kitchens by carefully opening and repairing the wall. Call 224-268-9995 to discuss what your kitchen needs.
Island Sink & Drain Plumbing
Installing a sink in a kitchen island requires special venting solutions, as the drain can’t simply connect to a wall vent stack. We use island loop vents or air admittance valves (AAVs) depending on local codes here in Illinois. Running hot and cold supply lines to the island is fairly simple, but routing the drain and vent under the floor and back up into the island cabinet takes careful design and execution. We’ve handled many island sink installs and can help plan your setup before finalizing your kitchen design.

- Run fridge water lines early: Easier to install ice maker lines before countertops go in.
Kitchen Remodeling FAQs
Yes! Moving your sink to an island is one of the trickier plumbing moves because it requires specialized venting—either an island loop vent or an air admittance valve as per local code. Running water supply lines is straightforward, but drain piping through the floor involves careful planning. We do island sink installs often—call 224-268-9995 so we can help plan before you finalize your layout.
If you’re just replacing fixtures in the same spot—like faucets, disposals, or dishwasher hookups—usually no permit is required. But for any work involving drain reroutes, new supply runs, gas line installations, or moving plumbing to new locations, permits are mandatory. We manage all permitting and inspection coordination for you.
Absolutely. We install new gas lines for ranges, cooktops, and ovens as part of kitchen remodel plumbing. This work is best done when walls are open.
