Complete Kitchen Plumbing Services in La Salle, IL
Whether you're just changing out your faucet and hooking up a new garbage disposal or planning a full kitchen overhaul with sink relocation, gas line installation, and extra prep sinks, we’ve got you covered. The scale of your remodel dictates the time, cost, and permit needs—and we’re ready for any level.
Here’s a tip from me: bring in the plumber early, ideally before your cabinets are set. If you’re shifting the sink, the drain reroute should be done while the floor’s open. Gas line rough-ins for new ranges or cooktops always happen ahead of cabinet install. Pot fillers require opening walls, so they’re easier before backsplash tile goes in. Getting us involved early in your project keeps your timeline smooth and avoids headaches down the line.
We also handle individual kitchen plumbing calls like faucet replacements, disposal repairs, dishwasher hookups, or adding a fridge water line without a remodel. If you’re upgrading your kitchen, it’s smart to check your water heater’s capacity and take care of slow drains while the cabinets are out of the way. Give us a call at 779-217-8212 anytime you need help.
Our Kitchen Plumbing Services
Sink and Faucet Installation
We work with all kitchen sink styles: undermount (which needs precise countertop cutouts), drop-in, farmhouse/apron-front, single or double bowls, and prep sinks. Our sink installs include the strainer basket, drain assembly, P-trap setup, and new supply line connections. We use braided stainless steel lines for supply to ensure lasting durability — no brittle plastic here. When needed, we’ll install your garbage disposal during the same visit.
Faucet installs cover any style and mounting setup (single-hole, three-hole, or deck-plate). Before finishing, we pressure-test all connections to avoid leaks. Moving the sink elsewhere in the kitchen means rerouting drains, vents, and supply lines, which we handle expertly with the proper permits and inspections.
Dishwasher and Appliance Hookups
When hooking up your dishwasher, we connect the hot water line and run the drain hose with a high loop or air gap to prevent backflow contamination. While we don’t handle electrical work, we’ll coordinate with your electrician to make sure everything is set. For refrigerators with ice makers or water dispensers, we run dedicated cold water lines with shutoff valves that remain easy to access behind the unit.
We also install instant hot water taps, under-sink filtration, and reverse osmosis systems, including faucet mounts for RO units and waste line connections. Call us at 779-217-8212 for any of these appliance plumbing needs.
Gas Line Installation for Kitchen Appliances
Switching to gas? We install new gas lines designed to handle your stove or cooktop’s BTU rating, running pipe from your gas meter or existing line. Our work includes installing proper shutoff valves, connecting appliances with approved flexible tubing, pressure testing, and ensuring the job meets all local codes with the required permits and inspections.
Important: gas lines to islands or new stove locations must be roughed in before cabinets go in. Installing gas piping after cabinetry is in place is tricky and can cause damage. Coordinate this early with your general contractor and us for smooth installation.
Pot Filler Faucet Installation
Pot fillers make cooking easier by letting you fill pots right at the stove. We run a cold water line behind the wall at about 56 to 60 inches above the floor, near your cooktop. This is easiest during remodels when walls are open, but we can also work in finished kitchens with careful wall patching and refinishing. Call 779-217-8212 to talk about your pot filler installation options.
Island Sink Plumbing and Drain Venting
Island sinks require special venting since they can’t tie into wall vents the usual way. Depending on local code, we’ll install either an island loop vent or an air admittance valve to prevent drain traps from siphoning dry. Running hot and cold water supply lines to the island is straightforward, but routing the drain and vent through and under your subfloor takes careful planning. We’ve done plenty of island sink setups—let’s talk before you finalize your kitchen layout.

- Replace old shutoff valves while exposed: Swap out gate valves for ball valves to avoid leaks down the road
- Run fridge water lines early: Adding ice maker lines is simpler before countertops are set
Kitchen Remodeling Questions Answered
Yes, but keep in mind it’s one of the trickier plumbing jobs since island sinks need special venting solutions like an island loop vent or air admittance valve to keep the trap from draining dry.

For simple fixture replacements like faucets, disposals, or dishwasher hookups in the same spot, normally no permit is needed.
