Why do you need professional help to move your sink

Plumbing Considerations During a Kitchen Remodel

Hot and cold-water supply

Hot and cold running water must be available near your kitchen sink. Sometimes, these lines can be used to connect your dishwasher to your sink’s plumbing. 

To determine what plumbing changes or upgrades are required to relocate your sink, a professional plumber can examine your home’s current system.

 

Don’t forget about wastewater

The drain in your kitchen sink also must be connected to a sewer line. This is where the dirty, used water is dumped. Since these are usually put at a gradient, extending them can be difficult if you need to relocate your kitchen sink or piping.
