Faucet Quality Running Hot and Cold?
Faucets are essential fixtures in any home, yet they’re often overlooked until they malfunction. Leaking or dripping faucets may seem like minor issues, and sometimes they are. But before you dive headfirst into a DIY faucet project, let’s make sure it’s the kind of task that doesn’t require professional skills.
Consider Replacing a Faulty Faucet Yourself if All These Circumstances Apply:
- You’re Handy: You possess basic plumbing skills and some experience with faucet installations, and you have all the tools you need to do the job right.
- It’s an Uncomplicated Job: Installing a bathroom sink faucet is usually straightforward, but more complex faucets, such as pull-out kitchen faucets or those with multiple handles, can be challenging.
- There’s Ample Workspace: If the faucet and water lines are easy to reach, DIY installation is less frustrating and more feasible.
- The Fixtures are Modern: Newer plumbing systems without heavy mineral deposits or corrosion are easier to work with. Old or non-standard fittings can complicate the job.
- You Don’t Need a Permit: In rare cases, local regulations might require a permit for major faucet replacements in showers and tubs.
Even under perfect conditions, faucet installation can quickly become more complicated than anticipated. Mistakes can lead to leaks, water damage, or improper installations that cause further issues down the line. Faucet replacement is still a plumbing job, after all.
