FAQs
What are the most common signs that my kitchen faucet should be replaced instead of repaired?
Persistent leaks around the base or spout, mineral-corroded interiors, stiff or broken handles, rust spots, and outdated connections that no longer meet current plumbing codes usually justify a full replacement. If the faucet is more than 10–12 years old or replacement parts are hard to source, installing a new fixture is typically more cost-effective and reliable than repeated repairs.
How long does a standard kitchen faucet replacement take in a Pelham home?
For most kitchens with shut-off valves in good condition, a faucet swap takes 60–90 minutes. Extra time may be needed if we have to install new supply lines, widen the sink cut-out, remove heavy mineral buildup, or correct code issues discovered during the visit. Our plumbers arrive with all common fittings so even unplanned complications are usually resolved the same day.
Can you help me choose a faucet that is both water-efficient and compliant with Pelham plumbing codes?
Yes. We carry and install EPA WaterSense-certified faucets that use 1.5 gpm or less, meeting both New York State and local efficiency standards. We’ll review style preferences, finish options, spout height/reach, and sink configuration, then recommend brands we trust for durability and readily available parts. Our estimates always include fixtures that satisfy Pelham’s latest backflow, lead-free, and shut-off valve requirements.
Will the water to my whole house need to be shut off during the faucet replacement?
In most cases, we only shut off the hot and cold angle stops beneath the kitchen sink, so the rest of your home’s plumbing remains functional. If the shut-off valves are seized or leaking, we may briefly turn off the main supply to replace them—usually less than 15–20 minutes—before completing the faucet installation.
What does a kitchen faucet replacement typically cost in Pelham, including labor?
Prices vary with faucet style, finish, and any under-sink repairs required, but most projects fall between $275 and $550 total. That figure includes a mid-grade WaterSense faucet, new supply lines, removal/disposal of the old unit, installation labor, and a basic functionality test. High-end pull-down or touchless faucets, or work requiring countertop modifications, can raise the price. We provide written, no-obligation estimates beforehand.
Do you offer warranties or ongoing support for faucet installations?
Absolutely. All our faucet replacements carry the manufacturer’s limited lifetime or multi-year warranty (varies by brand) plus our own 1-year labor guarantee covering leaks, loose fittings, or installation-related defects. If you enroll in our annual plumbing maintenance plan, we extend the labor warranty to 2 years and include a free yearly inspection to keep your new fixture running at peak performance.
