Kitchen renovations

Kitchens hide more plumbing than any room except the bathroom: water in, drainage out, gas to the cooktop, and three appliances that all want a connection. We do that layer, so the rest of the renovation sits on something sound.

What's behind the cabinetry

  • Sink and tap installation, including relocating the sink when the new layout moves it, which is a drainage-fall question we'll answer before the cabinets are ordered.
  • Dishwasher connection, with its own isolation valve and a drainage connection that won't siphon.
  • Fridge water and ice-maker lines, run where they won't kink or get crushed by the fridge they serve.
  • Gas cooktop and oven connection, carried out by licensed gas fitters and leak-tested at sign-off. Changing over from electric? That's a new gas run, and we do those too: see gas services.
  • Insinkerator and food waste disposers, fitted or removed. And unclogged, when it comes to that.
  • Filtered water taps and the under-bench filtration they connect to. Which filtration type suits what.

Home or commercial

The same applies to a cafe or commercial kitchen fit-out, with the additional compliance that commercial gas and backflow prevention carry. If it's a leased premises, we can tell you which parts of the work the compliance certificate will need to cover.

We coordinate with your cabinetmaker and builder on sequencing, because the sink cut-out and the appliance connections have to meet the benchtop schedule, not fight it.

Planning a kitchen?

Tell us the layout change, if any, and which appliances are moving or arriving. We'll come back with what the plumbing side involves and where the costs actually live.
