Common Faucet Replacement Issues & Signs You Need a Professional
A leaky or outdated faucet wastes water and ruins the look of your bathroom. Replacement should be quick—but old corroded supply lines and stuck nuts often turn it into a battle.
- Constant Drip: A worn cartridge wastes hundreds of gallons a year and leaves stains around the base.
- Low Pressure: Mineral buildup in the aerator restricts flow.
- Corroded Connections: Old supply lines crack, drip behind the wall, and break when you try to remove them.
- Outdated Style: Polished brass from 1995 dates the entire bathroom.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Should I buy my own faucet?
- Yes. Pick a style and finish you love. We recommend Moen, Delta, and Kohler for reliability.

- If your sink has the right hole pattern, yes. If not, we'd need to replace the sink or use a deck plate.
