Kitchen plumbing specialists in City of London
Complete kitchen plumbing for every London property type
London kitchens come in every configuration. Victorian terraces in City of London typically have galley kitchens with limited floor void access, requiring careful planning of waste runs and supply pipe routes. Modern open-plan conversions demand new island plumbing, extended supply lines, and discreet pipework concealed within the structure. Basement kitchen extensions — increasingly common across City of London — introduce additional complexity around drainage falls, sewage ejectors, and damp-proof measures.
Our engineers work across all of these scenarios daily. Whether you need a single appliance connected or a complete kitchen stripped out and replumbed, we approach every job with the same discipline: survey the existing system, understand the drainage falls, and plan supply and waste routes that will perform reliably for years.
Appliance connections are the most common kitchen plumbing call we receive in City of London. Dishwashers and washing machines require correctly sized supply valves, proper waste connections, and — particularly in flats — waste pipe routing that does not create backflow or blockage risks. We carry isolation valves, corrugated flexi hoses, and standpipe fittings on every van to handle same-day connections without a return visit for parts.
Boiling water taps have become standard in London kitchen refits. Quooker, Zip HydroTap, and Grohe Red systems all require a mains-pressure cold supply, a filtered line, and a tank installation that fits within your under-sink cabinet. We commission these systems to manufacturer specification and pressure-test the installation before we leave.
Waste pipe routing in City of London flats deserves particular attention. Many older conversions share soil stacks that were not designed for the appliance density of modern kitchens. We assess stack capacity, pipe diameters, and fall angles before connecting additional waste sources, and we advise on anti-siphon valves or air admittance valves where the existing configuration is marginal.
For kitchen extension plumbing — whether a single-storey rear extension or a full wraparound — we provide first-fix work that integrates seamlessly with your builder's programme. We design supply and waste runs to meet Building Regulations Part H, pressure-test all pipework before the floor screed or plasterboard goes on, and return for second-fix connections once the kitchen units are installed.

Kitchen plumbing City of London: frequently asked
Can you connect a dishwasher in a flat in City of London?
Yes — dishwasher connections in flats across City of London are one of our most common kitchen plumbing jobs. The main consideration is routing the waste pipe correctly to the existing soil stack without creating a blockage risk. In older Victorian conversions common in City of London, we often need to add a spigot to the existing waste run or install a new trap configuration. We carry the fittings needed for most flat configurations and can usually complete the connection in under two hours.
Do you need Building Regulations approval for kitchen plumbing?
Most like-for-like kitchen plumbing replacements and appliance connections do not require Building Regulations approval in England. However, if you are moving the sink to a new location, adding new drain connections to the soil stack, or carrying out a kitchen extension that alters the building fabric, Building Regulations may apply — particularly Part H (drainage) and Part L (conservation of fuel and power). We advise on this at the quote stage and can liaise with your local authority if a Full Plans application is needed.
How long does a kitchen refit plumbing take in City of London?
A full kitchen refit plumbing job in City of London — covering new supply runs, waste re-routing, and second-fix connections — typically takes one to two days depending on the size of the kitchen and the complexity of access. First-fix work (before kitchen units are installed) is usually half a day. We coordinate with your kitchen fitter to ensure the plumbing is ready for unit installation on their schedule.
Can you move the sink to a different location in the kitchen?
Yes — we relocate sinks regularly as part of kitchen refits across London. Moving a sink requires extending or re-routing the cold supply (and hot supply if applicable), repositioning the waste trap, and running a new waste pipe to the nearest stack or gully. In ground-floor kitchens this is straightforward; in flats the complexity depends on the floor construction and access to the void below. We survey the existing pipework and provide a fixed quote before starting.
