Kitchen Plumbing Repair

The kitchen has more water connections than any other room in the house, and most of them are hidden inside cabinets where a slow leak can run for months.

More Connections Than Any Other Room

A modern kitchen has the tap, its two supply lines, the shut-off valves, the trap and waste, a garburator, a dishwasher supply and drain, and often a fridge water line. Every one of those is a joint, and every joint is behind a cabinet door where a slow drip goes unnoticed.

When we come out for a kitchen leak we check the lot, because the cost of coming back for the next one is far higher than the few extra minutes it takes to test everything while the cabinet is already empty.

  • ✓Every connection tested — tap, supplies, valves, trap, dishwasher, garburator, fridge.
  • ✓Saddle valves replaced — the self-piercing fridge connectors that reliably fail.
  • ✓Grease build-up cleared mechanically — not chemically.
  • ✓Renovation rough-ins — moving supplies and wastes for a new layout.

Kitchen Plumbing Questions

A slow leak that has been running long enough to soak into the particleboard. The usual suspects are the tap supply connections, a flexible supply line, the trap joints, the dishwasher connection, or the garburator flange. We pressure-test each one rather than replacing the obvious candidate and hoping.
Yes. Fridge lines are a frequent source of slow leaks because they are often connected with a self-piercing saddle valve, which is a design that fails. We replace those with a proper isolation valve and a braided line, which is both more reliable and required by most modern installs.
Could be either, and it is worth knowing before you call an appliance technician. Leaks from the supply connection, the drain hose, or the air gap are plumbing. Leaks from the door seal or the internal pump are appliance. We identify which before you spend money on the wrong trade.
Kitchen branches build up a hard layer of cooled grease that drain cleaner does not shift. Clearing it mechanically works; pouring more chemicals in does not. If it returns quickly the branch itself may need proper attention rather than repeated clearing.
Yes — relocating sink supplies and wastes, adding a line for a fridge or a pot filler, and setting up connections for a new dishwasher. Best done before the cabinets go in, so talk to us early rather than after the counters are fitted.
