Hiring
How to Find a Kitchen Plumber in Limerick
Kitchen plumbing in Limerick is general plumbing work, so any qualified plumber can take it on. Here is how to find and hire the right one.
Browse Plumbers in Limerick
Every plumber listed in the Limerick plumber directory is sorted by county, so you can find local tradespeople near you and contact them directly. Browse the county, shortlist a few, and ask each for a kitchen plumbing quote.
Get Three Written Quotes for the Work
Quotes should set out the sink and tap supplied, the number of appliance connections, any plumbing points being moved, and the labour. A quote that does not list the fittings and appliances is incomplete, since those decide the price and the time on site.
Agree the Kitchen Layout Before First Fix
Confirm the final positions of the sink, dishwasher, washing machine and any filtered tap before the plumber runs the first-fix pipework. Moving a plumbing point after the units are in costs far more than getting it right at first fix.
Confirm Testing and Sign-Off on Completion
On completion the plumber runs the taps and appliances, checks every joint and waste for leaks, and confirms the isolation valves work. Ask for the work to be pressure-tested and left clean before you sign it off.

Common questions
Kitchen Plumbing in Limerick: Common Questions
How much does it cost to plumb a new kitchen in Limerick in 2026?
Full kitchen plumbing for a renovation costs €700 to €1,800 in Limerick, covering the sink, tap, appliance connections and any plumbing points that need moving. A single sink and tap supplied and fitted is €180 to €400. Figures include labour and VAT.
How much does it cost to connect a dishwasher and washing machine in Limerick?
Appliance plumbing costs €90 to €180 per appliance in Limerick, covering the feed, the drain connection and an isolation valve. Connecting a dishwasher and a washing machine at the same visit is usually quoted as two appliances.
Can a plumber move the kitchen sink to a new position in Limerick?
Yes. Moving or adding a plumbing point costs €150 to €350 per point in Limerick, covering the new water feed and waste run. It is best done at first fix, before the units go in, so the pipework and waste fall are set correctly.
How much does a filtered or boiling-water tap cost to fit in Limerick?
A water-filter tap or a boiling-water tap fitted costs €250 to €500 in Limerick, including the under-sink unit and the connection. The tap itself varies in price, so ask your plumber to quote supply and fit for the model you want.
Do I need isolation valves under a new kitchen sink in Limerick?
Yes. Isolation valves on the hot and cold feeds and on each appliance connection let a Limerick plumber shut off one tap or appliance at a time, which matters more in rural homes on a private well or pump where draining the whole system is a bigger job.
