When It’s Time for a New Faucet
Some choose a faucet based on looks, efficiency or water control. Others are looking to replace simply because their old one gave out. Signs you may see that indicate you need a new faucet are poor water pressure, handles that do not turn smoothly and corrosion near the base. In some instances the internal valve can wear down and some experience a slow leak that begins under the counter and ends up damaging cabinets and walls before you even notice.
The Importance of Proper Installation
Installing a new faucet can seem pretty simple but each countertop, sink and water line setup for every home is different! Some factors to consider are mounting hardware, the compatibility of new faucet (function and fit) and water supply spacing. Something as small as tightening the connection too much or not enough can lead to leaks and/or damaged parts.
Replacing Old Fixtures Safely
Removing your old faucet can be as tedious as putting in the new one. Worn out supply lines, mounting brackets that are hard to reach and nuts that are corroded can make a “simple” job into a time consuming quickly. Also, if your shut off valves have not been used in a while they might not even shut off or worse they could start leaking.
