Installing a New Faucet.

It may not sound like rocket science, but it should not be attempted by just anyone. In fact, today’s faucets have become easier to install with various innovations. There are still many different steps that need to be taken to avoid leaking in the future…or even just a sub-par job that looks bad.

Here are just a few of those steps – 

1. You must cut out and remove the old faucet.
2. You will probably need a basin wrench.
3. The new faucet must be mounted with silicone.
4. Measure the supply lines…they may not be long enough.
5. Remove the aerator before turning the water on.

These, and many more steps are something that a licensed plumber in Colorado Springs can practically do with their eyes closed!
