Plumbing for your kitchen renovation

A kitchen renovation involves relocating and connecting the sink, tapware, dishwasher and often a filter tap, and getting the plumbing right is what keeps your new kitchen working and leak-free. We handle the complete plumbing side of a kitchen renovation, from the rough-in (running the water supply and drainage to the new layout) to the fit-off (installing and connecting the sink, taps and appliances). We work to the standard and test everything leak-free. Whether you are updating the kitchen or doing a full reconfiguration, we provide the plumbing expertise to get it done properly, and coordinate the gas and electrical work for your cooking appliances, across Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide, with an upfront fixed price.

Rough-in and fit-off

Kitchen renovation plumbing happens in stages. The rough-in is done early, running the water supply and drainage to the positions for the new sink, dishwasher and any other water points, before the cabinetry and benchtops go in. The fit-off is done once the cabinets and benchtop are installed, fitting and connecting the sink, tapware, dishwasher and filter tap. Getting the rough-in positions right is important, because they determine where the sink and appliances can go, and they are set before the cabinetry. We carry out both stages, coordinated with the build, so the plumbing is correctly positioned for your new kitchen layout, connected and tested leak-free.

Relocating the sink

Many kitchen renovations move the sink to a new position, perhaps to an island, under a window, or a different wall, which means relocating the water supply and drainage to the new spot. Moving the sink involves running the waste to the new position with the correct fall, and the water supply to feed the tap, which can be more involved for an island sink away from the walls. We can relocate the sink and its plumbing as part of your new kitchen layout, running the pipework and drainage to the new position to the standard. This lets you design the kitchen you want. We handle relocating the sink and its plumbing, so your new layout works and is correctly plumbed.

Connecting appliances

A modern kitchen has several appliances that need plumbing or gas connections, and we handle them. We connect the dishwasher to the water and waste, install a filter tap and its under-sink system for clean drinking water, and can connect a fridge with an ice/water line. For cooking appliances, we coordinate the gas connection for a gas cooktop and the electrical connections for ovens, cooktops and range hoods with our licensed gas fitters and electricians. Connecting all the appliances correctly, as part of the renovation, means your new kitchen is fully functional when it is finished. We make sure every appliance is properly and safely connected.

Sink, tapware and filter taps

At fit-off, we install and connect the kitchen sink, the tapware, and any filter tap. We fit the sink (drop-in, undermount or farmhouse) and seal it to the benchtop, connect the mixer tap, and connect the waste and water supply, testing everything leak-free. This is the time to upgrade to a quality mixer, a pull-out spray tap, or a three-way filter mixer for filtered drinking water. We can install a sink and tapware you have chosen or supply quality ones to suit your new kitchen. Getting the sink and tapware installed and connected properly, sealed and leak-free, is central to a kitchen that works well and does not leak into the cabinetry below.

Coordinating with your trades

A kitchen renovation involves several trades, the cabinetmaker, builder, benchtop installer, and often an electrician and tiler, and the plumbing has to fit in at the right stages, the rough-in before the cabinets, the fit-off after the benchtop. We coordinate with your other trades so the plumbing is done at the right time and the renovation runs smoothly, without hold-ups or rework. Good coordination is part of what makes a renovation go well, and we are used to working in with cabinetmakers, builders and other trades. Whether you are managing the renovation yourself or working with a kitchen company, we slot the plumbing into the schedule at the right points.

Gas and electrical for cooking

The cooking appliances in a kitchen need gas or electrical connections, and we handle and coordinate these. A gas cooktop needs a licensed gas fitter to connect the gas safely and provide a compliance certificate, while electric ovens, cooktops and range hoods need a licensed electrician and often dedicated circuits. We have both, so we can connect your whole cooking setup, gas and electrical, as part of the renovation, ensuring each appliance has the correct, safe supply. This means your new kitchen’s cooking appliances are all properly and safely connected by the right licensed tradespeople, coordinated with the rest of the renovation, rather than being a separate headache to arrange.

Doing the plumbing to standard

Kitchen plumbing must be done to the standard, correct pipe sizing and falls, proper connections, and everything tested leak-free, because leaks under the sink or from appliance connections cause water damage to the cabinetry and floor, often hidden until there is a problem. Getting it right during the renovation avoids these issues in your finished kitchen. We install and test all the plumbing to the standard, so there are no leaks or drainage problems once the kitchen is finished, and the appliance connections are sound. This is a key reason to have a licensed plumber do your kitchen renovation plumbing, rather than cutting corners that cause leaks and damage behind the new cabinetry later.

Common renovation plumbing upgrades

A kitchen renovation is the ideal time to include worthwhile plumbing upgrades while the kitchen is open. Common ones include upgrading to a quality mixer or a pull-out spray tap, adding a filtered or instant-boiling water tap for clean drinking water, adding or upgrading the dishwasher connection, replacing ageing pipework while it is accessible, and improving water pressure if needed. Doing these during the renovation is far cheaper and easier than retrofitting later. We can advise on worthwhile plumbing upgrades to include, so your new kitchen is not just better-looking but more convenient and functional, with the water features and appliance connections you want, done properly as part of the build.

How much does the plumbing cost?

The cost of the plumbing for a kitchen renovation depends on the layout, how much is relocated (moving the sink, especially to an island, adds work), the appliances being connected, and whether you supply the sink and tapware or we do. A straightforward refresh keeping the sink position is less than a full reconfiguration with a relocated or island sink. We assess your renovation plans and give you an upfront fixed price for the plumbing work, so you know the cost as part of your renovation budget. We will explain what the plumbing and appliance connections involve, so there are no surprises, and the plumbing side of your renovation is clear and properly budgeted.

Working to your schedule

Kitchen renovations run to a schedule, and the plumbing needs to happen at the right points, the rough-in before the cabinetry, the fit-off after the benchtop is in, without holding up the other trades. We work to your renovation schedule, attending for the rough-in and fit-off at the right stages and coordinating with your cabinetmaker, builder and other trades, so the project keeps moving. We understand that delays by one trade hold up the whole job, so we are reliable with timing. Whether it is a tight timeline or a larger project, we fit the plumbing into the schedule and get our stages done on time, so your kitchen renovation progresses smoothly.

An island kitchen sink

A sink in a kitchen island is a popular feature, but it is more involved to plumb than a sink against a wall, because the water supply and drainage have to run out to the island, usually under the floor or slab, away from the walls where the plumbing normally runs. The drainage in particular needs the correct fall from the island to the main drain. We can plumb an island sink, running the supply and waste to the island position to the standard, so you can have the sink or prep area in your island that your design calls for. If your renovation includes an island sink, we handle the extra plumbing it needs, done properly so it drains and supplies correctly.

We phoned Same Day Trades and, less than two hours later, Jesse arrived, with a smile. He checked our electrical points and got power working again.
