When you turn on a faucet in your kitchen, bathroom, or elsewhere, you probably give little thought to the possibility of it not working. Yet at some point, your current faucet will wear out and begin to experience problems, meaning a faucet replacement will quickly become a top priority. While this can be done as a DIY project, faucet installation is often never as easy as you may think. Rather than deal with unexpected problems, let an experienced plumber from Boss Plumbing provide you with professional faucet installation services in Los Angeles.
Signs You Need To Replace Your Kitchen or Bathroom Faucet
There are many ways to figure out you need a faucet replacement in your kitchen or bathroom.
A Leaky Faucet
The most obvious is when you have a faucet that leaks day and night. When this happens, you will waste gallons of water daily, meaning your water bill will begin to get much higher unnecessarily.
An Old Faucet
Age is another sign you need to replace your faucet. On average, a typical faucet is made to last about 15 years. If yours is at least this old or older, chances are many of its components are starting to suffer from serious corrosion or normal wear and tear.
A Noisy Faucet
Here at Boss Plumbing, we often encounter many faucets in Los Angeles homes that are making unusual noises or have water that is spitting or sputtering from the tap. In most cases, this indicates problems with the faucet’s internal components, which may include rust, mineral deposits, or a clog in the aerator that is beyond help. Since many Los Angeles homeowners are now opting for smart faucets in their kitchens and bathrooms, we can install one or more of these faucets in your home and make your faucet problems a thing of the past.
Is a Plumber Needed for Faucet Installation?
Of all the plumbing jobs people tend to tackle as a DIY project, faucet installation is usually at the top of the list. However, while it’s true many faucets have been made to be easy to install, these jobs are often not always as easy as expected.
For example, if you are trying to replace a very old faucet that has significant rust or corrosion because of hard water, you may find this faucet will be extremely hard to remove from a sink. If you make the wrong decision along the way, you could wind up breaking a water line or other vital component, creating a much bigger problem that will definitely require the services of an experienced plumber.
Rather than face this crisis, call on us here at Boss Plumbing when you need a kitchen faucet installed or a bathroom faucet installed in your Los Angeles home.
How Much Does Faucet Installation Cost?
Here at Boss Plumbing, we know many people cringe at the thought of how much plumbing repairs in their home will cost. Because of this, we strive to make our repairs as affordable as possible.
In fact, faucet installation on a bathroom sink or kitchen sink is one of the most affordable residential plumbing services we do on a daily basis. Since our skilled plumbers can usually complete a faucet replacement in about two hours, you can expect to pay between $100-$150 to get a new faucet.
Is Faucet Installation Quick?
