Does your kitchen still have the sink and faucet it had when you bought your home? Are your bathroom sinks and showers looking outdated? Unless you recently remodeled or your home is only a few years old, it is likely your sinks, faucets and showerheads will soon show wear and need replacement. You may not notice the issues since you see them every day, but it may be time to inspect your water fixtures and determine whether it is time for replacement.

Faucets Leaks and Drips

Does your bathroom or kitchen sink faucet drip or leak? Do you hear drips in your shower or tub into the middle of the night? Repair is one option, but sometime old hardware wears out, making it difficult to completely stop leaks on old faucets. It may be better to replace the entire faucet versus another repair.

Sink Surface Damage

If enamel is chipped or the metal is dented in your sinks, it is time to update and replace them with newer versions. These surfaces can last for many years, but eventually they do become worn and can detract from the beauty of your home.

Outdated Styles

There are so many new options for your bathroom and kitchen water fixtures. Just updating your kitchen sink can change the look of the room and many new faucet options offer better function and convenience. The same is true of your bathroom – new faucets and showerheads can improve the style and there are water-efficient options to reduce waste.

When you are ready to replace your kitchen and bathroom water fixtures, contact your local plumber. They can install your new fixtures to ensure they will be properly fitted and endure for many years to come.

Here are three signs it is time to replace your bathroom fixtures.

  • Faucets leak or drip. Do you constantly have a shower or sink in your bathroom that drip or leak? While it may be something as simple as a washer that needs replacing in the faucet, it may be time to replace the shower or sink set completely.

  • Outdated design. Sometimes, you just want a new look for your bathroom. Changing the fixtures in your bathroom is a cost-efficient option to improve the appearance. If the old faucet or sink is stained or outdated, opt for a newer design to give your bathroom a makeover.

If you are ready to replace your bathroom fixtures for efficiency or a new style, call your local plumber. Fixtures like your toilet or sink should be installed by a professional to ensure it is done right the first time. It can save you time and money in the long run to trust a professional plumber for your installation.

Comments Off on Upgrade Your Bathroom With New Plumbing Fixtures

Have you been thinking that your bathroom is starting to look “dated?” Have you been dreaming about remodeling your bathroom but now is not the time for such an expense? Simply replacing and upgrading your old plumbing fixtures can go a long way toward giving your bathroom a different look and feel.

Regardless of your future plans to remodel your entire bathroom, changing your fixtures will be a step in the right direction, and one which you’d likely do anyway. Picture the overall desired look to your bathroom when selecting fixtures. Begin with the toilet; choose something more modern and environmentally friendly.

When selecting your style and finish requirements with matching, or complimentary, sink and shower fixtures, don’t just look at the faucets but also consider upgrading the style of sink and/or cabinets. Think about what kind of bath you’d really like to have, such as a bath with massaging water jets, and indulge yourself by upgrading that as well. Select a custom showerhead, with all the settings of spray that you’d enjoy, with matching faucets for the bathroom sink.

Depending on your choices, like with the toilet, there may exist some building code requirements. It is always best to first, before purchasing, consult with your local plumbing professional about your ideas to make sure that your plans are feasible, that you have enough space, correct location of water lines, and adequate placement of plumbing lines. Limited only by your budget, upgrading and replacing your old plumbing fixtures with new sleek designs will give your bathroom a remodeled look, without the cost and mess of an entire remodel.
