Bathroom & Kitchen Remodeling

4 min read

A bathroom or kitchen remodel is a rewarding investment, but the plumbing behind those new fixtures determines whether the project holds up for years or becomes a source of callbacks. At Keston’s Plumbing, we provide licensed, code-compliant remodel plumbing for homeowners across Alexandria, Arlington, Fairfax, and the DC Metro Area. With more than 10 years of experience, we know how to get the rough-in right, coordinate with your contractor, and deliver plumbing that performs exactly as it should.

We are licensed and insured through the Virginia Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation (VA DPOR) and Green Plumbing Certified. We charge by the job, back every installation with a 30-day warranty, and offer 90 days same-as-cash financing.

Bathroom Remodel Plumbing Services

Bathroom remodels in Northern Virginia homes frequently involve more than swapping out a faucet. Converting a tub to a walk-in shower or adding a second vanity requires changes to supply and drain lines. Our services include:

  • Fixture installation. Sinks, faucets, showers, bathtubs, and toilets installed watertight and to Virginia plumbing code.
  • Pipe rerouting and relocation. We handle all pipe rerouting cleanly and to code, whether that involves copper, PEX, or PVC.
  • Rough-in plumbing. For gut remodels, we install all supply, drain, and vent piping before walls are closed up. Accurate rough-in work prevents costly problems down the line.
  • Shower valve and mixing valve installation. Pressure-balanced and thermostatic valves installed and tested to manufacturer specifications.

Kitchen Remodel Plumbing Services

Kitchen plumbing is more complex than most homeowners expect. A modern remodel may involve gas line work, appliance hookups, and drainage reconfiguration.

  • Sink and faucet installation. From farmhouse sinks to undermount basins, we install all types and connect faucets, sprayers, and filtration systems.
  • Gas line installation. If your remodel includes a gas range, cooktop, or oven, we run and connect gas lines in full compliance with local code.
  • Dishwasher and garbage disposal hookup. Supply connections, drain routing, and electrical coordination, ensuring everything is secured and leak-free.
  • Pipe relocation for new layouts. Moving an island sink or relocating a dishwasher requires careful rerouting. We execute these changes to work within your new floor plan without compromising water pressure or drainage.

Our Remodel Plumbing Process

We have handled remodels across Alexandria, Arlington, and Fairfax, and we have learned that a clear process is what separates a smooth project from a delayed one. Here is how we approach every remodel plumbing job.

Consultation

We visit your home to review your remodel plans, assess existing plumbing, and discuss what changes are needed. If you are working with a general contractor or designer, we coordinate directly with them from the start.

Planning

We develop a plumbing plan covering fixture placement, pipe routing, code requirements, and coordination with other trades. We provide a clear, by-the-job price before any work begins.

Rough-In

Once demolition is complete and framing is in place, we install all supply, drain, waste, and vent piping. This stage must be completed and inspected before walls are closed, so scheduling accuracy matters.

Finish

After drywall, tile, and flooring are installed, we return to set fixtures, connect appliances, and complete final connections for sinks, faucets, toilets, showers, tubs, dishwashers, and disposals.

Inspection

We test every connection, check for leaks, verify water pressure, and confirm all work meets Virginia plumbing code. If your municipality requires an inspection, we coordinate with the building department and ensure it passes on the first visit.

Working With Contractors and General Contractors

Remodel plumbing has to fit within the larger construction schedule and coordinate with framing, electrical, drywall, tile, and cabinetry. We have years of experience working alongside general contractors and other trades throughout Northern Virginia. We communicate clearly, stick to the schedule, and handle our scope without creating delays.

If you are managing your own remodel, we work directly with you and explain the plumbing requirements at each stage so there are no surprises.

Licensed, Code-Compliant Remodel Plumbing

Plumbing work that is not done to code can fail an inspection, void your homeowner’s insurance, and create safety hazards. Every remodel job we complete meets or exceeds the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code. Our VA DPOR license, insurance, and Green Plumbing Certification give you confidence that the work is done right.
