FAQs
What are the most common reasons a faucet starts leaking?
In most Bean Station homes, leaks are caused by worn-out rubber washers, damaged O-rings, corroded valve seats, or mineral buildup on internal parts. Over time, everyday use and hard water shorten the life of these components, leading to drips around the spout or under the handle. If you notice water stains, a persistent drip, or difficulty turning the handle, it’s time to have the faucet inspected by a licensed plumber.
Can you repair my existing faucet, or will it need to be replaced?
We always troubleshoot first. If the body of the faucet is structurally sound and replacement parts are readily available, a repair can extend its life at a lower cost. However, if the finish is badly pitted, the brand is obsolete, parts are unavailable, or the fixture is over 15 years old, a full replacement is usually the more economical, long-term solution. We’ll explain both options on-site so you can make an informed decision.
How long does a faucet replacement appointment usually take?
For a straightforward kitchen or bathroom sink faucet replacement, most visits in Bean Station take 60–90 minutes from shut-off to clean-up. If we’re also replacing supply lines, installing new shut-off valves, or working in a tight space, allow up to two hours. We always arrive with the necessary tools, fittings, and drop cloths to keep the job efficient and your home neat.
Will upgrading my old faucet really save water and lower bills?
Yes. Modern WaterSense-labeled faucets use as little as 1.2 gallons per minute compared to older units that can flow at 2.2 gpm or more. That’s roughly a 45 percent water savings. Over a year, the reduction in hot-water use can noticeably lower your utility bills while also helping Bean Station conserve precious resources.
What faucet brands and styles do you install?
We work with trusted manufacturers such as Moen, Delta, Kohler, American Standard, and Pfister. Options range from single-handle pull-down kitchen faucets to classic two-handle bathroom widespreads, available in finishes like chrome, brushed nickel, matte black, and oil-rubbed bronze. If you have a specific décor in mind, we’ll help you select a model that complements your countertops, sink, and cabinet hardware.
How much does faucet replacement cost and what affects the price?
In Bean Station, a standard supply-and-install faucet replacement typically runs $250–$450, which includes a mid-grade fixture, new supply lines, labor, and haul-away of the old unit. Costs rise if you choose a premium brand, need additional plumbing modifications (such as new shut-off valves or sinkhole drilling), or prefer touchless technology. We provide upfront, itemized estimates so there are no surprises.
