Planning a Kitchen Remodel in Boynton Beach? Start With the Plumbing
Most kitchen remodels hit delays because plumbing gets scheduled too late. Contractors frame walls, set cabinets, and lay tile — then call a plumber last. At that point, rerouting a drain line or relocating a sink costs far more than it should. By contrast, when plumbing is planned early, the whole project runs smoother and finishes on time.
Florida Flush Plumbing works directly with homeowners and general contractors throughout Boynton Beach and Palm Beach County. We handle every plumbing phase of your kitchen remodel — from initial rough-in through final fixture installation.

How Kitchen Remodel Plumbing Works — Phase by Phase
Kitchen remodel plumbing happens in two distinct stages. Understanding both helps you schedule correctly and avoid costly surprises.
Phase 1 — Rough-In Plumbing
Rough-in work happens before walls close and cabinets go in. During this phase, we relocate or extend supply lines, reposition drain lines, and set the stub-outs for your new sink location. Furthermore, we install blocking and backing in the walls where future fixtures will mount. All rough-in work must pass inspection before the project moves forward — and we handle the permit process so you don't have to.
Phase 2 — Fixture Trim-Out
Trim-out is the finish work. Once cabinets are installed and countertops are set, we return to connect the sink, faucet, garbage disposal, dishwasher, and any specialty fixtures like filtered water taps or pot fillers. At this stage, every connection gets pressure-tested. We don't consider a job complete until everything runs perfectly and the area is clean.
Kitchen Remodel Plumbing Services We Provide
Sink Relocation
Moving a kitchen sink is one of the most common remodel requests — and one of the most involved plumbing jobs in a kitchen renovation. Drain lines must maintain proper slope regardless of where the new sink lands. Supply lines need rerouting to match. Additionally, if the new sink location moves across the kitchen, we may need to break into the slab or reroute through the walls. We assess the most efficient path before any work begins.
Kitchen Island Plumbing
Island sinks are a popular choice in Palm Beach County's larger kitchen remodels. However, they present a real plumbing challenge — there are no walls nearby to run drain lines through. Instead, the drain must be run under the slab or through the subfloor to reach the main stack. We plan island drain routing carefully to maintain proper slope and avoid future drainage issues. Supply lines follow a similar path through the floor or toe-kick space.
Pot Filler Installation
Pot fillers mount on the wall above the range and require a dedicated cold water supply line run through the wall behind the stove. Specifically, this line needs a proper shut-off behind the wall in case of future repairs. We rough in the supply line during the remodel phase and install the pot filler during trim-out — perfectly timed with your tile and backsplash work.
Under-Sink Filtration and Specialty Lines
Remodels are the ideal time to add an under-sink water filtration system or a dedicated line for a refrigerator ice maker. The walls are already open, which makes routing much cleaner and less expensive. We install filtration systems, ice maker lines, and instant hot water dispensers as part of the remodel scope whenever possible.
Garbage Disposal and Dishwasher Rough-In
Every kitchen remodel we work on includes proper rough-in for the garbage disposal and dishwasher connections. These are easy to get right during rough-in and expensive to fix after cabinets are installed. We coordinate the exact placement with your cabinet layout so every connection lines up cleanly.
Working With Contractors in Palm Beach County
Florida Flush Plumbing works alongside general contractors, kitchen designers, and cabinet companies throughout Palm Beach County and Broward County. We understand job site schedules. Consequently, we show up when we say we will and communicate clearly with your project manager so nothing gets held up waiting on plumbing. If you're a contractor looking for a reliable plumbing partner for your kitchen projects, call us directly to discuss how we work.
For commercial kitchen remodels — restaurants, cafes, or office kitchens — our commercial plumbing team handles those projects separately with the additional code requirements they require.
Why Palm Beach County Remodels Need a Local Licensed Plumber
South Florida's building codes have specific requirements for kitchen plumbing — particularly around drain venting, slab penetrations, and backflow prevention. Moreover, Palm Beach County permit requirements differ slightly from Broward County, and both differ from state minimums. Using an unlicensed plumber on a permitted remodel can result in failed inspections, costly rework, and complications when you sell the home. Florida Flush knows local code inside and out. We pull permits, schedule inspections, and make sure your finished kitchen passes the first time.
Kitchen Plumbing Remodel FAQs
Call us before demolition starts — ideally at the planning stage. Early involvement lets us review your layout, flag any drain routing challenges, and schedule rough-in at the right time. As a result, you avoid the most common and costly remodel delays. The earlier we're involved, the smoother the project runs.
Costs vary significantly based on scope. A simple sink relocation with new supply and drain lines typically runs $500–$1,500. Island plumbing with slab penetration, a pot filler rough-in, and full trim-out on a larger kitchen remodel can run considerably more. We provide detailed written quotes after reviewing your plans — no guesswork, no surprises.
Yes — any work that involves moving, adding, or altering water supply or drain lines in Palm Beach County requires a permit. We handle permit applications and coordinate inspections as part of our remodel service. This protects your investment and ensures the work is documented for future home sales.
Absolutely. We collaborate with designers, general contractors, and cabinet companies regularly. We review layouts, provide rough-in dimensions, and schedule around other trades. Good communication between all parties is how remodels stay on schedule — and that's something we take seriously.
This happens frequently in older Boynton Beach homes. Once walls open up, we sometimes find galvanized pipe, improper venting, or previous DIY repairs that need correction. In those cases, we document what we find, explain your options clearly, and give you a written scope change before proceeding. No surprises, no pressure.
