Remodel Your Kitchen With Plumbing That Works

Kitchen remodeling services in San Jose with plumbing upgrades, layout changes, and full construction support

When you decide to open up your kitchen, move the sink to the island, or upgrade to a larger dishwasher and disposal, the plumbing has to change with it. Cervantes Construction handles kitchen remodels in San Jose from the plumbing side up, rerouting water and drain lines to match your new layout and managing the structural and finish work so you do not need to hire multiple contractors.

This service includes relocating supply lines, installing new drain piping, upgrading gas lines for ranges, and coordinating with cabinet installers and countertop crews to keep the project on schedule. It is ideal for homeowners planning full renovations or layout changes that require more than cosmetic updates.

If you are planning a kitchen remodel in San Jose and want one contractor handling both plumbing and construction, reach out to Cervantes Construction to discuss your project.

How the Project Is Planned and Built

The process begins with a walkthrough of your current kitchen and a review of your design plans to confirm where sinks, appliances, and gas lines need to go in your San Jose home. Rough plumbing is installed first, followed by any framing or electrical work, and then cabinets and finishes are staged in sequence.

When the remodel is finished, you will have a kitchen with properly sloped drains, water lines that do not bang when you turn off the faucet, and appliances that fit the space without improvised hookups. All plumbing is tested before walls are closed, and final connections are made after countertops are set.

Permits are pulled for plumbing and structural changes, and inspections are scheduled to meet city requirements. If your remodel includes flooring or lighting work, that is coordinated as part of the same timeline so nothing gets delayed waiting on another trade.

Questions That Come Up During Planning

Most people want to understand how long the kitchen will be out of service, whether they can change the layout after work starts, and what is included in the remodel scope.

What does kitchen remodeling include?
We handle plumbing relocations, sink and appliance installations, gas line upgrades, and the construction work that supports your new layout. Cabinets, countertops, and finishes are coordinated as part of the project.
How long does a full kitchen remodel take?
Most projects take three to six weeks, depending on the size of the kitchen and the extent of plumbing and structural changes. You will receive a timeline after the initial consultation.
Can I move the sink or add a second sink?
Yes. We reroute supply and drain lines to match your new layout, whether that means moving the sink to an island or adding a prep sink near the range.
What happens if we find old plumbing during demolition?
If we uncover corroded or undersized piping, we will walk you through the options and provide a separate estimate for replacement. It is common in older San Jose homes and easier to address while walls are already open.
Do you coordinate with other contractors?
We manage the plumbing and construction work directly, and we coordinate with your cabinet installer, countertop fabricator, and electrician to keep everything on schedule.
