Kitchen Plumbing Services in Lansing, IL
Whether you need a quick faucet swap, a new garbage disposal hooked up, or a full plumbing rough-in for relocating your sink or adding appliances, we’ve got you covered. Projects can be as simple as connecting a dishwasher, or as involved as running new gas lines and prepping plumbing for a pot filler faucet. Your project's size and complexity determine the timing, cost, and permits needed — and we take care of all of it.
When you're planning your kitchen remodel, make sure to get us involved early — ideally before cabinets are installed. Moving sinks means rerouting drains while the subfloor is accessible, gas lines for cooktops should be roughed in ahead of cabinetry, and pot filler installations require wall access before backsplash tile goes in. Getting plumbing set early helps avoid costly rework and keeps your project on schedule.
We also handle individual kitchen plumbing repairs and installations outside of remodels: faucet replacements, garbage disposal repairs, dishwasher connections, and refrigerator water line setup. If you’re remodeling, it's a good chance to check your water heater’s capacity for new appliances and resolve any slow drains before finishing. Give us a call at 708-729-9358 anytime.
Our Kitchen Plumbing Services
Sink & Faucet Installation
We install all types of kitchen sinks, from undermount models that need precise countertop cuts, to drop-in, farmhouse/apron front, single or double bowls, and prep sinks. Our service includes assembling and installing drains, strainers, P-traps, and connecting hot and cold water lines with durable braided stainless steel, not outdated plastic tubing that can crack and leak. We also handle garbage disposal installation during the same visit when needed.
For faucets, we fit any style and mount configuration — single hole, three-hole, or with a deck plate — making sure all connections are tight and leak-free before finishing. If you’re moving your sink, we manage the extra work of rerouting drains, modifying vents, and extending supply lines, complete with necessary permits and inspections.
Dishwasher & Appliance Hookups
Dishwasher installations include connecting the hot water supply, routing the drain hose with a high loop or air gap to prevent backflow, and assessing the electrical setup (we coordinate with electricians as needed). For refrigerator ice makers and water dispensers, we install a dedicated cold water supply line—usually copper or braided stainless steel—with a shutoff valve easily accessible behind your fridge.
We also install instant hot water dispensers, under-sink water filtration systems, and reverse osmosis units. For RO systems, we add the special faucet through your sink deck, connect supply and drain lines, and guide you with filter maintenance schedules. Reach out at 708-729-9358 for any appliance plumbing needs.
Gas Line Installation for Kitchen Appliances
Planning on switching to a gas range or adding a cooktop? We handle all the gas line installation details—right pipe sizing for your appliance’s BTU rating, routing from your gas meter or main line, installing a shutoff valve, attaching the appliance with code-approved connectors, pressure testing the system, and pulling permits and inspections. Check our gas line services page for details on our safe and thorough process.
Keep in mind that gas lines should be roughed in before cabinetry goes in. Trying to add or move a gas line after cabinets are installed can be costly and disruptive. Plan ahead with your general contractor and us to avoid surprises.
Pot Filler Faucet Installation
A pot filler faucet mounted on the wall above your stove makes it easy to fill large pots without carrying them across the kitchen. We run a cold water supply line inside the wall about 56 to 60 inches above the floor and roughly 4 inches to the side of your range center. This installation is straightforward with open walls during a remodel but can also be done in finished kitchens with some careful wall patching and repainting or tile work. Call 708-729-9358 to go over your options.
Island Sink Plumbing & Drain Venting
Installing a sink in a kitchen island is a bit trickier because the drain can’t vent through the wall like usual. We use an island loop vent or an air admittance valve (AAV), depending on local code requirements. Running hot and cold supply lines to the island is straightforward, but routing drain and vent lines through the floor and under the subfloor takes careful planning. We’ve installed countless island sinks here in Lansing, IL — give us a call to review your island’s plumbing setup before you finalize the design.

Kitchen Remodeling FAQ
Yes, moving the sink to an island is possible but it’s one of the more involved plumbing changes because the drain venting has to be handled differently. We use either an island loop vent or an air admittance valve to meet code. Running supply lines is straightforward, but the drain routing through the floor needs careful planning. We’ve done this many times in the Lansing area. Call 708-729-9358 to review your layout before you make final decisions.
For simple fixture replacements like faucets, garbage disposals, or dishwasher hookups in the same spot, a permit usually isn't needed. But if you’re rerouting drains, installing new supply lines, working with gas piping, or changing the layout, permits are required. We handle the permit applications and inspections so you don’t have to worry about that part.
Yes, we specialize in gas line installations for kitchen appliances like ranges, cooktops, and ovens. This is best done during a remodel when walls are open. We size lines properly, do pressure tests, and pull all necessary permits. Get this scheduled before cabinets go in to avoid costly modifications later. Learn more on our gas line services page.
