Three Phases of Plumbing Installation in Gilbert, AZ


Whether you’re building a new house or putting an addition onto an existing home, new plumbing installation is essential. You need plumbing that’s going to work well, and you certainly want a plumbing system that’s built to last. Top Notch Plumbing and Drain has spent over 14 years providing plumbing installation services in Gilbert for homes and businesses.

Our Plumbers will help you understand the entire process from start to finish. Then, we’ll provide exceptional professionalism, attention to detail, and communication.

The process of plumbing installation in Gilbert takes place in three distinct stages: The underground phase, the aboveground phase, and the finishing phase.

  • 1. Underground Phase

    During this phase, our plumbers identify the connections from your home to the municipal system, which is necessary to determine entry and exit points for your own plumbing. The underground phase can begin after the basement foundation is in place. 

  • 2. Aboveground Phase

    Now it’s time for us to install your drains and vent points. The aboveground phase involves working inside your walls, ceilings, and floors. Be aware, the cutting involved with the aboveground phase can make this a messy part of the plumbing installation process. 

  • 3. Finishing Phase

    We’ll finish off the job by putting the fixtures in place — the sinks, the showers, the toilets, the dishwashers — any endpoint that the pipes will be connecting to.

Three Types of Plumbing Systems

Plumbing systems can be broken down broadly into three different categories: Sanitary drainage, potable water, and storm water drainage. 

  • 1. Sanitary Drainage

    When you do the laundry, use the bathroom, or put leftover food down the garbage disposal, the waste must be distributed into the municipal sewer system. The sanitary drainage system, which includes your sewer line, is what carries waste away. 

  • 2. Potable Water System

    Drinking water throughout the day is important to avoid dehydration. Your potable water system is what makes that happen. 

  • 3. Storm Water Drainage

    Your gutters take water away from the house during a heavy rain, but the storm water drainage system is what ensures that water makes it all the way into the main municipal sewer. 

All three of these systems must work together to ensure you’re getting clean water and protecting your property from damage.

Five Types of Piping For Installation


It goes without saying that your plumbing system is composed of pipes, and different pipes serve different purposes.

Types of pipes we haven’t mentioned are galvanized steel and cast iron. While they are still in older homes and may require plumbing repair, they aren’t often used in new construction.

Top Notch Plumbing and Drain will be with you every step of the way. We’re here to give you both a professional job and a real understanding of what we’re doing and why. We’ve served Gilbert and the Phoenix for over 14 years. We understand the importance of good communication and attention to detail.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What are the three phases of plumbing installation for new construction?

    Plumbing installation occurs in three phases: the underground phase (laying pipes before the foundation is poured), the aboveground phase (installing pipes within walls and ceilings), and the finishing phase (connecting fixtures and appliances). Each step ensures a durable and efficient plumbing system.

  • How do I choose the right type of piping for my home or business?

    The right piping depends on your plumbing needs. PVC and ABS pipes are ideal for drains and vents, PEX pipes are flexible for water supply lines, and rigid copper pipes offer durability for water distribution. Our expert plumbers assess your property and recommend the best materials.

  • How long does a plumbing installation project take?

    The timeline varies based on project size, but most plumbing installations take a few days to a few weeks. Factors include property size, the complexity of the system, and local permit approvals. Our team ensures timely and efficient installation while maintaining top-quality workmanship.
