Kitchen & Bathroom Remodels Done Right

We plan carefully, keep the job clean, and deliver plumbing upgrades built to last.

Remodels

Planning a kitchen or bathroom remodel is exciting, but the plumbing work behind the walls matters just as much as the finishes you see every day. At FME Plumbing, LLC, we help homeowners upgrade their spaces with plumbing that is built to work well, look clean, and last. Whether you are replacing old fixtures, changing the layout, or doing a full renovation, we make sure the plumbing side of the project is done right from the start.

We are a local family company, not a chain. FME stands for Fife, Milton, and Edgewood, the communities where we live and raised our families. I’m Noah, owner of FME Plumbing, and I bring over 28 years of hands-on plumbing experience to every job. We treat your remodel like we would treat our own home, with honest advice, careful workmanship, and respect for your space.

What our remodel plumbing service includes

Our remodel work covers kitchen remodels, bathroom remodels, laundry room updates, fixture upgrades, and plumbing changes needed to match a new layout. Some of the most common services we provide include:

  • Moving water lines and drain lines for new sink, shower, tub, toilet, dishwasher, or laundry locations
  • Installing new kitchen faucets, sinks, garbage disposals, pot fillers, and dishwasher connections
  • Installing bathroom sinks, faucets, toilets, tubs, showers, shower valves, and handheld sprayers
  • Upgrading old shut-off valves, supply lines, and drain assemblies
  • Replacing outdated or worn plumbing during renovation work
  • Setting plumbing for vanity changes, island sinks, double sinks, and custom fixture layouts
  • Preparing plumbing rough-ins for contractors and finish plumbing for completed spaces
  • Checking existing piping to see what can stay and what should be replaced for better long-term performance

Kitchen remodel plumbing

The kitchen is one of the busiest rooms in any home, so the plumbing needs to be dependable and practical. We help with everything from simple sink and faucet upgrades to full kitchen plumbing reconfiguration. If you are adding an island sink, relocating a dishwasher, replacing old drain piping, or updating your kitchen fixtures for a cleaner look, we will make sure everything is properly connected, vented, and flowing the way it should.

We also look at everyday function. That means good sink placement, solid water pressure, dependable drainage, and fixture choices that match how you use the space. A beautiful kitchen should also be easy to live with.

Bathroom remodel plumbing

Bathroom remodels often involve much more than swapping out fixtures. Many projects require new shower valves, updated drains, toilet relocation, tub replacement, or adjustments to water lines inside walls and floors. We handle both the rough plumbing and the finish installation so your new bathroom is not only attractive but also reliable behind the scenes.

We install plumbing for standard bathroom upgrades as well as more custom layouts. That includes double vanities, walk-in showers, freestanding tubs, rain shower heads, handheld shower fixtures, and modern low-flow toilets. If your current plumbing is old, corroded, or poorly placed, a remodel is the right time to improve it.

Why plumbing planning matters in a remodel

Good remodel results come from good planning. Plumbing affects cabinet layout, countertop design, fixture placement, drainage slope, venting, and access for future maintenance. If plumbing is treated like an afterthought, it can lead to delays, added costs, and problems after the project is done.

We work carefully to help avoid those issues. We look at the existing system, talk through your goals, and explain what is realistic for your home and budget. If a layout change is possible, we will tell you. If keeping certain plumbing in place will save you money without hurting the final result, we will tell you that too. Our goal is to help you make smart decisions, not upsell work you do not need.

Clean work and clear communication

Remodeling can be stressful, especially when multiple trades are involved. We do our part to keep the process smoother by showing up on time, communicating clearly, and keeping the work area as clean as possible. We know your home is not a jobsite to you. It is where you live, and we treat it with care.

We also coordinate well with homeowners, general contractors, cabinet installers, tile crews, and other trades when needed. Good timing matters in a remodel, and we understand how important it is to complete our plumbing work at the right stage of the project.

Built for long-term value

A remodel is a big investment. The plumbing should support that investment for years to come. We focus on quality installation, solid materials, and dependable performance so your new kitchen or bathroom is not just updated for looks, but improved where it counts. That means fewer leaks, better function, easier maintenance, and more confidence in the systems behind the walls and under the fixtures.

We can also point out opportunities to improve efficiency and convenience, such as updated shut-offs, better fixture performance, and plumbing replacements that make sense while the space is already open. These are the details that can make a major difference over time.

Remodel Plumbing FAQs

Here are the questions we hear most from homeowners planning a kitchen or bathroom remodel. We answer them clearly so you know what to expect when you hire FME Plumbing, LLC.

We plan the layout carefully so your new space not only looks good, but works properly for years.

  • Can you help if we want to move a sink, shower, or toilet to a new location?

    Yes. We often help homeowners rework the layout during a remodel. Moving plumbing is possible in many homes, but it depends on the structure, drain access, venting, and the condition of the existing system. We’ll look at the space, explain what makes sense, and give you honest advice before the work begins so there are no surprises later.

  • How do you price remodel plumbing work?

    Remodel pricing depends on the size of the project, the fixtures you choose, whether lines need to be moved, and what we find behind the walls or under the floor. We give clear, straightforward pricing based on the actual scope of work. If something unexpected comes up, we talk with you before moving forward. We believe in honest communication and no guesswork.

  • Do you work with older homes and outdated plumbing?

    Absolutely. With over 28 years in the trade, we’ve worked on everything from simple fixture updates to full repipes in older homes. If your remodel uncovers aging galvanized pipe, corroded drains, poor past repairs, or code issues, we can fix them properly. Our goal is to make sure your remodel is built on solid plumbing, not hidden problems.

  • Will the remodel plumbing work be done cleanly and professionally?

    Yes. We know your home is not a jobsite to you—it’s where you live. We show up on time, protect the work area, keep the project as clean as possible, and treat your home with respect.

Why homeowners trust FME Plumbing

Real feedback on clean work, clear communication, and plumbing repairs done right.

We had an excellent experience with this plumbing company from start to finish. They responded quickly, arrived on time, and explained everything clearly before starting the work. The plumber was professional, respectful, and left the area spotless when the job was done. The repair was completed efficiently and at a fair price. It’s hard to find honest, reliable service these days, and this company definitely exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend to anyone needing quality plumbing work!

Recently had the unfortunate experience of having a shutoff valve underneath my main bathroom sink fail in the middle of the night and start flooding the bathroom. Fortunately I was still awake and able to turn off the main water fairly quickly but still, got to spend several hours trying to clean up water instead of getting to sleep. I went online the next day to find a plumber to replace the valve so I could get the water back on and found FME and contacted them online. I got an almost immediate response and was able to schedule an appointment that day. The team was professional and friendly and the price seemed reasonable so I went ahead and had them replace both the valves under the sink. I would definitely work with them again and I’m already considering having them replacing the other ticking time bomb plastic valves that are in the house.

Water heater started leaking, called FME Plumbing, and they got someone out the same day. From the time I called to having hot water back was about 3 hours, which is pretty impressive. The guys showed up, got right to work, kept things clean, and even wore shoe covers in the house. They also knocked $250 off the bill without me asking. Good, honest service. I’d use FME Plumbing again.
