Kitchen Plumbing Services in Glenview, IL
Whether you need a quick faucet replacement or are planning a full kitchen gut and remodel, we cover all the plumbing work you’ll require. This could be swapping out fixtures, installing a new disposal, or a complex job like relocating your sink to an island, setting up a gas line for your new stove, or adding a pot filler faucet. The project size affects cost, schedule, and permit needs — and we manage it all from start to finish.
Pro tip: reach out to us at 224-529-4155 before your cabinets go in. For example, if you’re moving the sink, the drain rerouting is best done while the subfloor is exposed. Gas lines for new cooktops or ranges should be roughed in prior to cabinetry installation. Pot fillers require opening the wall behind the stove, which is far easier before backsplash tile is applied. Scheduling the plumber early will keep your project on track and avoid costly delays.
Besides remodels, we also handle standalone kitchen plumbing jobs — faucet replacements, garbage disposal service, dishwasher connections, or refrigerator water line installation. If you’re remodeling, it’s a smart time to check that your water heater can keep up with new demands, or clear any slow kitchen drains before the cabinets go back. Reach out anytime at 224-529-4155.
Our Kitchen Plumbing Services
Sink & Faucet Setup
We install all kinds of kitchen sinks—undermount with coordinated countertop cuts, drop-in models, farmhouse/apron front, single or double bowls, and prep sinks. Installation includes complete drain assemblies, strainers, P-traps, and water supply connections using braided stainless steel lines to avoid the brittle plastic tubing that often leaks. We also handle garbage disposal installation as part of the same visit when needed.
Installing faucets of any style is our routine—whether it’s a single-hole, three-hole, or deck-plate mount. We thoroughly test all connections under water pressure before we call it done. Moving a sink to a new spot involves drain rerouting, venting adjustments, and extending supply lines—all permitted and inspected. We take care of the details so you don’t have to.
Dishwasher & Appliance Plumbing
Hooking up your dishwasher means connecting the hot water line and routing the drain hose with the right high loop or air gap to prevent contamination. We check to ensure the electrical setup is up to code, coordinating with your electrician if needed. For refrigerator water and ice makers, we run dedicated cold water lines with proper shutoff valves easily accessible behind the fridge.
We also install instant hot water taps, under-sink filtration units, and reverse osmosis systems. For RO systems, we cut the faucet hole, hook up supply and waste lines, and walk you through filter maintenance. Call 224-529-4155 for any appliance water line installation or troubleshooting.
Gas Lines for Kitchen Equipment
Planning a gas stove or cooktop? We run gas lines sized exactly for your appliances’ BTU ratings, from your meter or existing supply. We install shutoff valves, connect with flexible, code-approved fittings, and pressure test the entire system. Permits and inspections are handled by us so everything’s safe and legal. Visit our gas line services page for more info on what we do and how we do it safely.
Important: if your gas line is going to an island or a new appliance location, the rough-in must happen before cabinets go in. Trying to add gas lines afterward in Glenview’s older homes can be a real headache. Chat with your general contractor and us early to keep things smooth.
Pot Filler Faucet Installation
A pot filler mounted on the wall above your stove is a real convenience for filling large pots without hauling them from the sink. Installing one requires running a cold water line inside the wall about 56 to 60 inches above the floor and just off center of the range. It’s easiest to do during a remodel when walls are open, but we can also install them in finished kitchens with minimal drywall repair and repainting or retiling. Give us a call to talk options.
Island Sink Drain & Vent Solutions
Island sinks pose a unique challenge because their drains can’t tie into wall vents the normal way. To vent the drain properly, an island loop vent or air admittance valve (AAV) is needed, depending on local code here in Cook County. Supplying hot and cold water to the island is straightforward, but the drain and vent pipes have to run under the floor and back up into the island cabinetry thoughtfully. We’ve installed plenty of island sinks in Glenview homes and can help plan yours to code.

- Finalize sink placement before demo: Moving the sink is labor-intensive—lock in location before ordering cabinets
- Install gas lines before cabinetry: Gas piping to islands or new appliance spots must be roughed in early
- Pot filler installation before backsplash: Opening walls is easier before tile goes up
- Replace old shutoffs while exposed: Switch gate valves to ball valves during remodel for reliability
- Run fridge water line before countertops: Easier access before counters are installed keeps costs down
Kitchen Remodeling Questions Answered
Yes, we handle moving sinks to islands regularly, but it’s a complex job because island drains can’t vent like wall sinks do. You’ll need an island loop vent or an air admittance valve, depending on local code. Running supply lines is simpler, but the drain and vent routing under the floor needs to be planned carefully. Call us at 224-529-4155 and we can help design your setup before you finalize the kitchen plans.
Simple fixture swaps like faucets or garbage disposals usually don’t require a permit. But if you’re rerouting drains, adding new supply lines, installing or extending gas lines, or changing the kitchen’s layout, permits and inspections are required. We take care of all the paperwork and inspections so you don’t have to worry.
Absolutely. Installing and sizing gas lines is part of our routine work. We run the pipe, install shutoffs, pressure test everything, and pull the permits required by the city. Scheduling this before cabinets are in place is essential to avoid costly changes later. Check out our gas line services page for details.
