Complete Kitchen Remodel Plumbing in Oswego, IL
Whether you're just replacing a faucet, hooking up a new garbage disposal and dishwasher, or doing a full kitchen plumbing rough-in that includes moving sinks or running new gas lines, we've got you covered. The size of the job will impact the cost, how long it takes, and what permits you'll need — but no matter the project, our team handles it with skill and professionalism.
Here’s a tip from the trenches: schedule your plumber early. Before your cabinets arrive, we can reroute drain lines if you’re relocating your sink — which is much simpler with the subfloor open. Gas line installation for a new stove or island cooktop should also happen before cabinetry goes in, as should pot filler faucet rough-in since that means opening the wall. Planning ahead like this will keep your kitchen project on track.
Besides remodels, we’re also available for one-off kitchen plumbing jobs like faucet replacements, disposal repairs, dishwasher hookups, or installing refrigerator water lines. Kitchen remodel time is a good opportunity to check your water heater’s capacity and deal with slow-draining sinks before putting everything back together. Reach out at 331-400-5383 anytime.
Our Kitchen Plumbing Services
Sink & Faucet Installation
From undermount sinks that require precise countertop cutouts, to drop-in, farmhouse, single or double bowl, and prep sinks, we install them all. Our sink work includes assembling the drain basket, strainer, P-trap, and connecting braided stainless supply lines — no brittle plastic tubing here. We’ll also install garbage disposals during the same visit when needed.
Faucet installation is straightforward, whether it’s a single-hole, three-hole, or deck-mounted faucet. We pressure-test all connections to prevent leaks. If you’re moving your sink to a new spot, that involves rerouting drains, adjusting vents, and extending supply lines — all handled with the proper permits and inspections.
Dishwasher & Appliance Hookups
Hooking up your dishwasher means connecting hot water supply and drain with a high loop or air gap to prevent backflow. We also check that your electrical setup is ready for the appliance, coordinating with electricians if needed. For refrigerator ice makers and water dispensers, we plumb dedicated cold water lines using copper or braided stainless tubing, complete with accessible shutoff valves behind the fridge.
We also install instant hot water dispensers, under-sink water filters, and reverse osmosis systems. For RO units, we add the dedicated faucet, hook up supply and drain lines, and guide you on filter maintenance. Give us a call at 331-400-5383 for all your kitchen appliance plumbing needs.
Gas Lines for Cooking Appliances
Planning to switch from electric to gas or adding a gas cooktop? We’ll size and install gas piping according to your appliance’s BTUs, route it from the gas meter, add shutoff valves, connect flexible code-approved lines, and pressure test everything. We handle permits and inspections to keep everything safe and compliant. Visit our gas line services page to learn more about how we manage this work.
Important: gas line rough-ins must take place before cabinets go in, especially if running lines to an island. Once cabinetry is installed, adding gas lines gets trickier and more disruptive. Plan ahead with your general contractor and us.
Pot Filler Faucet Installation
Pot fillers make cooking easier by letting you fill pots at the stove. We run a cold water supply line inside the wall about 56–60 inches up and roughly 4 inches off center from your range. This is simple to do during remodeling while walls are open, but we also install them in finished spaces by carefully opening and patching the wall. Reach out at 331-400-5383 to explore options for your kitchen.
Island Sink Drain & Vent Solutions
Island sinks are a plumbing challenge because they lack a nearby wall vent. Building codes require either an island loop vent or an air admittance valve (AAV) to keep drain flow smooth. Running hot and cold supply lines to the island is straightforward, but the drain and vent piping must be routed carefully under the floor and back up through the island cabinet. We’ve done many island sink installs here in Oswego’s subdivisions — call us early to plan your setup right.

Kitchen Plumbing Scheduling Tips

- Gas lines must be roughed in before cabinets: New gas piping to islands or ranges should be completed early.

- Replace old shutoff valves while accessible: Switch from gate valves to ball valves during plumbing upgrades.
- Fridge water lines before countertops: Running ice maker lines is simpler before counters are set.

Frequently Asked Questions About Kitchen Plumbing
Yes, though it’s one of the more challenging plumbing tasks. Island sinks need special venting—either an island loop vent or an air admittance valve—to prevent drain issues. We run hot and cold water supply easily, but the drain and vent piping has to be carefully routed under the floor. We’ve done this many times in Oswego kitchens; give us a call at 331-400-5383 before you finalize your design.
For simple fixture swaps like faucets, disposals, or dishwasher hookups in the same location, permits usually aren’t needed. But moving drains, roughing in new supply lines, or working on gas lines requires permits and inspections. We handle all permit applications and inspections for you as part of the job.
Definitely. Installing gas lines during a remodel is ideal because walls are open, making routing easier. We size the pipe correctly, run lines from your meter, install shutoffs, pressure test, and handle permits. Scheduling gas rough-in before cabinets goes in will save headaches later.
