Plumbing Solutions for Your Morris Kitchen Remodel
Whether you’re just swapping out a faucet or undertaking a full kitchen overhaul—including moving your sink to an island, installing gas lines for new appliances, or adding a pot filler—we provide expert plumbing services tailored to your needs. The scope of work influences the timeline, costs, and whether permits are necessary. No matter the job, we’ve got it covered.
Here’s a tip you’ll appreciate: call us early in your remodel process at 779-217-8568. Plumbing rough-ins for sink moves or gas line installs must occur before cabinets go in and floors are closed up. Pot filler faucet hookups require access behind walls, best done before your backsplash finishes. Getting plumbing on your schedule early helps keep your project efficient and on track—especially with Illinois weather that can delay exterior work.
We also handle single-service kitchen plumbing like faucet replacements, garbage disposal repairs, dishwasher installs, and refrigerator water line hookups anytime. Plus, kitchen remodels are a great opportunity to make sure your water heater can keep up with demand or to fix slow drains before everything’s buttoned up. Reach out at 779-217-8568 for any kitchen plumbing needs.
Our Kitchen Plumbing Services
Kitchen Sink & Faucet Installation
We install every popular sink style—from undermounts that integrate with your countertop, to farmhouse aprons, drop-ins, single or double bowls, and prep sinks. Our sink installs include the drain assembly, strainer, and P-trap. For water supply, we connect braided stainless steel lines—not brittle plastic ones prone to leaks. If you’re adding or replacing a garbage disposal, we cover that in the same visit for your convenience.
As for faucets, we handle all mounting setups—1-hole, 3-hole, or using a deck plate—and test for leaks and water pressure before finishing. If your sink is moving to a new spot, we reroute drains, vents, and water lines accordingly, working with permits and inspections so everything meets code.
Dishwasher & Appliance Connections
Dishwasher connections include running hot water supply, installing drain lines with a high loop or air gap to prevent backflow, and coordinating with your electrician for power. For refrigerator ice makers and water dispensers, we run dedicated cold water lines with shutoff valves positioned behind the fridge for easy access.
We also install under-sink water filtration, reverse osmosis systems, and instant hot water dispensers. For RO setups, we mount the dedicated faucet, connect supply and drain lines, and advise on filter maintenance. Call us at 779-217-8568 for any appliance plumbing hookup.
Gas Line Installation for Kitchen Appliances
Switching to gas cooking or adding a cooktop in your island? We install properly sized gas lines from your meter or existing supply, including shutoff valves and pressure testing. We use code-compliant flexible connectors and manage all permitting and inspection work. For gas lines, timing is key—the rough-in must happen before cabinets are installed. It’s easier and less disruptive than retrofitting afterward.
Coordinate with your general contractor and us early so we can schedule accordingly and avoid delays.
Pot Filler Faucet Installation
A pot filler faucet mounted above your stove adds convenience for filling pots right where you cook. We run a cold water line inside the wall, typically about 24 inches above the cooktop. This is easiest to install during a remodel when walls are open, but we can also retrofit existing kitchens by carefully opening and patching the wall with minimal mess. Give us a call at 779-217-8568 to explore your options.
Island Sink Drain & Vent Solutions
Plumbing an island sink is a bit more complex because the drain can’t tie into wall vent stacks as usual. We install island loop vents or air admittance valves, depending on local code requirements. Water supply lines are run from the closest supply points, but the drain and vent routing involves running pipes beneath the subfloor and back up through the island base. We’ve done plenty of these installations in the Morris area and can guide you through the best setup for your kitchen layout.

Timing Tips for Kitchen Plumbing
- Confirm sink location early: Moving the sink is the priciest plumbing change, so lock in placement before ordering cabinets
- Install gas lines before cabinets: Gas rough-ins must happen before cabinetry goes in to avoid major rework
- Pot filler installation before backsplash: Accessing behind walls is far easier before tile is installed
- Upgrade old shutoff valves while exposed: Replace outdated gate valves with ball valves during remodel to prevent future leaks
- Run refrigerator water lines before counters: Ice maker lines are simpler to install before countertops are set
Kitchen Remodeling FAQ
Yes, moving a sink to an island is doable but requires special venting solutions like an island loop vent or an air admittance valve. Water supply lines are straightforward to run, but drain and vent routing under the floor needs precise planning. We’ve installed many island sinks around Morris, so call 779-217-8568 to talk through your layout before finalizing plans.
Minor work like replacing faucets, disposals, or hooking up a dishwasher in the same location usually doesn’t require a permit. However, any drain rerouting, new water supply rough-ins, or gas line installation will require permits and inspections. We handle all permit processes to make your project hassle-free.
Yes, installing gas lines during a remodel is ideal because walls are accessible. We size and install piping per code, test for leaks, and pull permits as required. Scheduling gas line rough-ins before cabinets go in avoids costly rework down the line.
