Fixture repairs &
sink installations

The small jobs are where the damage happens

A dripping faucet is trivial to fix and expensive to ignore. A running toilet can quietly put through more water in a month than the rest of the house uses in a week. And a seized angle stop discovered mid-emergency is why a five-minute isolation turns into shutting off the whole building.

The other reason to have a licensed plumber do fixture work is what sits around it. Chrome trap arms strip, compression nuts crack, and a corroded supply that is turned once too often shears off inside a cabinet. Getting an old fixture out without breaking the tile, the stone or the cabinet base is the actual skill.

Faucets and taps

• Full faucet replacement, kitchen and bath
• Wall-mount, deck-mount and single-hole conversions
• Pull-down sprayer, hose and diverter repairs
• Aerator and flow-restrictor service on pressure complaints
• Outdoor hose bibbs and frost-free replacements

Toilets

• Running toilets — flapper, fill valve and flush valve work
• Weeping tank-to-bowl connections
• Leaking at the base: wax ring and closet flange repairs
• Loose or rocking pans re-set properly rather than shimmed
• Complete toilet replacement, including comfort-height and dual-flush
• Commercial flushometer valves, rebuilds and swap-outs

Sinks, basins and drains

• New kitchen sink hardware and complete sink installations
• Undermount, drop-in and vanity basin sets
• P-traps, tailpieces and trap arms replaced in the correct material
• Basket strainers and pop-up waste assemblies
• Garbage disposal installation and replacement
• Dishwasher and washing machine connections with proper air gaps
• Angle stops and supply lines replaced with serviceable valves

Showers, tubs and valves

Shower valve work is the one job in a bathroom where the difference between a tidy plumber and a careless one is permanent. Cartridge replacement and thermostatic valve service can normally be done from the front. Where a valve body genuinely has to come out, we work through the smallest opening the job allows and tell you up front what has to be opened.

Commercial fixture groups

A restroom group in a leased unit is fixture work at a different scale: wall-hung urinals, flushometer valves, carriers, ADA-height pans, grab-bar coordination and lavatories, all set out to plan. Our recent work includes complete commercial restroom sets — see commercial plumbing and new construction.
