For a standard 30"- 34" high sink water lines are typically stubbed out of the wall between 16"-30" depending on the sink itself and rough in dimensions(if applicable). That does not mean that they can not be at another height, it really has to do with the sink and application layout.

How do you clear blocked kitchen drains?
Clogged drains are caused by the accumulation of sticky material in the water pipes. Many times stuff like hair, food, plastic pouches.. gets stuck in the pipes and starts accumulating. Because of this the water from the kitchen or shower sink takes time to drain. Many times the drain pipes emit foul odor. Once the pipes are blocked, either the water stops draining from the sink or the debris starts coming out of the sink and toilets. The clogged water may also start leaking and also rust the pipes.[Source:A-General Plumbing and Sewer Service]
