Explore the benefits of choosing CJ Brubacher to install your new kitchen faucet.
Avoid Damaging Other Fixtures
Improper faucet removal and installation can damage fixtures and materials in your kitchen. Taking this on as a DIY project or hiring an inexperienced plumber can result in issues with these components in your kitchen:
- Sink
- Faucet
- Countertop
- Cabinet
Your sink can become damaged if the new faucet is connected too firmly or the wrong tools are used to remove the old faucet. Rough handling of components around sinks, particularly ceramic sinks, can chip, crack or stain the sink.
Improper installation can also damage your new faucet. Whether scratching the surface or compromising the water lines, this can be a costly and frustrating process. Serious damage to your new faucet may require you to purchase another faucet before you can complete the installation process and use your kitchen sink again.
Countertops can be damaged as you attempt to remove a faucet. Once the new one is installed, both cabinets and countertops are at risk of water damage if the water lines weren’t properly connected.
Instead of a cost-effective fixture replacement, you may be looking at a costly kitchen cabinet and countertop replacement or repair project. It’s best to reach out to an experienced residential plumbing services provider to avoid these issues.
Choose a Talented and Experienced Plumbing Team
A professional plumber can make any project seem easier. Swapping out a faucet may not be the most complex plumbing service you could ask for, but it’s still a good idea to work with a talented and experienced professional.
Plumbers from CJ Brubacher have the tools you need for a quick faucet replacement and installation project. Unique tools, like basin wrenches, are particularly convenient when trying to remove a faucet without removing the entire sink. Installing a new faucet requires caulk to prevent leaks, which requires a caulk gun and other tools you may not have in your DIY toolkit.
Experienced plumbers know how to avoid common mistakes. From incorrectly installing water lines to avoiding water leaks around the base of the faucet, there are several key ways that a licensed plumber can ensure the new components are installed safely and with a professional finish.
Prevent Water Leaks and Other Mistakes
Accidents are a natural part of any project, but accidents during residential plumbing services can have serious consequences. You probably don’t want to deal with mould, mildew and water damage issues in your kitchen, so consider hiring a reliable plumber to avoid common mistakes.
Many mistakes lead to costly water damage, but other mistakes can delay the process. Delays in the installation process can lead to higher costs if you’re hiring an inexperienced plumber. If you’re attempting to install your own sink, these time-consuming mistakes can turn a small job into a weekend-long event.
A professional plumber can swap out a faucet in very little time. A plumber who avoids common mistakes and has years of experience understands shortcuts that can make the project even more efficient. This not only helps you upgrade your kitchen sink in less time but can also save you money on labour costs.
