Are you ready to see a beautiful improvement in your bathroom or kitchen decor? As built-in features in a kitchen or a bathroom, fixtures can take on an outdated, dingy look. A fixture replacement is a perfect way to breathe new life into your space, but replacing a shower head or a faucet may involve more steps and tools than you initially may assume. What should you know before you start a fixture replacement project?
What It Takes to Replace a Fixture
Replacing a showerhead or a faucet may seem as easy as loosening a few screws. While this is part of the project, much more work is involved than you may initially assume. The first few steps include making sure that you have everything required to do the job. The supplies needed include:
- Adjustable and basin wrenches
- A large bucket
- Towels
- Caulk
- A putty knife
- A new fixture
You will need to turn off the water supply to the fixture before doing any work. After doing so, you can use the bucket and towels to drain away water in the pipes. After replacing the institution, you will need to apply caulk and turn the main water valve back. You can see that there may be a risk of water leaks and property damage if you do not follow through on all of the steps thoroughly.
The Benefits of Professional Fixture Replacement
Many people will replace fixtures when they are making multiple improvements to their homes. For example, you may also plan to replace the sink and the garbage disposal if you are returning the kitchen faucet. If you are updating the showerhead, you may also need to replace the tub and sink hardware. A professional plumber from Apollo Plumbing can tackle all of your plumbing projects during the same visit to the home. This makes professional fixture or faucet replacement a fast, convenient, and safe solution.
