FAQs
What is meant by a “supply-line adjustment” in plumbing?
A supply-line adjustment involves modifying, extending, or replacing the small water lines that connect your home’s main pipes to individual fixtures such as faucets, toilets, refrigerators, and water heaters. Adjustments may be required when installing a new fixture, correcting leaks, converting from one pipe material to another (e.g., copper to PEX), or meeting updated building codes.
How do I know if my plumbing fixture needs to be replaced rather than repaired?
Signs include chronic leaks even after gasket or cartridge replacement, visible corrosion, low water pressure due to internal mineral buildup, outdated inefficient designs, or physical damage like cracks in porcelain or metal. If repairs exceed half the cost of a comparable new fixture or your fixture is over 15–20 years old, replacement is typically more cost-effective.
Will the water be shut off to my entire Copperhill home during a supply-line adjustment or fixture replacement?
For most projects, we only shut off the localized angle stop or branch valve feeding the specific fixture. Your home’s main shut-off is used only if local valves are missing or inoperable. In that case, the whole-house shutoff is closed for 30–60 minutes while work is performed, then promptly reopened once connections are pressure-tested.
How long does it take to replace a standard kitchen faucet and its supply lines?
A straightforward replacement usually takes 1–2 hours. This includes shutting off water, disconnecting old lines, cleaning the deck surface, installing new supply hoses, mounting the new faucet, and testing for leaks. Complexities such as difficult-to-reach basins, corroded shut-off valves, or additional filtration hookups can extend the job to 3–4 hours.
What materials do you use for new supply lines, and which is best?
We install code-approved braided stainless-steel or PEX supply hoses, both rated for 180°F and 125 PSI. Braided stainless is highly burst-resistant and ideal where hoses are exposed (e.g., under sinks). PEX risers are excellent for longer custom runs behind walls. We’ll recommend the best option based on fixture location, local Copperhill code requirements, and your budget.
Do your supply-line and fixture replacements come with a warranty?
Yes. All labor is covered by our 1-year workmanship warranty, and most manufacturer parts carry a 5- to 10-year warranty. If any leaks, drips, or installation-related issues arise within one year, we repair or replace the components at no additional cost. Extended protection plans are available for homeowners who prefer longer coverage.
