When Your Faucet Starts Looking Dated

Walked into my sister’s house last month and her kitchen faucet looked like it came from 1985. Because it did. Still worked fine but man was it ugly. We swapped it out for a nice modern one in under an hour. She couldn’t believe the difference it made in how her whole kitchen looked. Fixture replacement is one of the easiest ways to update your home’s look without breaking the bank. New faucets, sinks, and toilets make a real difference.

Miles H.
My Local Plumber is the absolute BEST! I have used them multiple times, usually when there is an emergency. They always respond quickly, arrive on time and get the job done the same day, usually within just a couple of hours. The staff, both field and office are super friendly, courteous and respectful. I am VERY satisfied with every aspect of My Local Plumber!
David R.
My local plumber has provided me excellent service two times! Once fixing my backyard sump pump. And then the second time helping clear a difficult clog in the courtyard. Even came out in the rain! Very nice and respectful employees who communicate well!
Leo C.
My water heater was not working and it was Friday evening. I reached out to My Local Plumber and they showed up in the promised time frame and then fix my water heater! Zach and Marco are very professional and provide construct suggestion for me. This experience gives me confidence that they are reliable and I will continue to hire their plumbing service whenever I need.

We have used My Local Plumber for years and they continue to provide excellent plumbing services. Today, we had them out to handle a backed up kitchen sink drain. The technicians were friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. Thank you so much!
Mack Bartle
Very impressed with the professionalism of Ish and his partner. I had a highly-unusual problem, they were able to locate the issue, brainstorm to find a solution, and ultimately fixed the issue without increasing the bill. I will definitely use them in the future.

What Fixtures We Replace

  • Kitchen faucets
    Pull-down sprayers, touchless models, pot fillers, you name it. Modern faucets are way better than old ones.
  • Bathroom faucets
    Widespread, centerset, wall-mounted. Finishes from chrome to matte black. Tons of options.
  • Toilets
    Water-efficient models, comfort height, dual flush. New toilets work better and use less water than old ones.
  • Sinks
    Kitchen sinks, bathroom vanities, utility sinks. Undermount, drop-in, vessel sinks.
  • Shower fixtures
    Showerheads, hand showers, body sprays, tub fillers, trim kits.
  • Other fixtures
    Soap dispensers, drinking fountains, bar sinks, and more.

Why Replace Fixtures

  • They are old and worn out
    Fixtures do not last forever. Finishes wear off, mechanisms break, seals leak.
  • You want to update your style
    That brass faucet from the 90s is not coming back in style. Modern fixtures look much better.
  • Better functionality
    New faucets offer pull-down sprayers, touchless operation, and improved performance.
  • Water efficiency
    Old toilets use 3 to 7 gallons per flush. New ones use 1.28 to 1.6 gallons and flush just as well.
  • Leaking or dripping
    Sometimes, repair does not make sense. Replacement is the better option.
  • Home sale prep
    Updated fixtures help your home show better. Small investment with solid return.

Choosing New Fixtures

Think about how you actually use them. Touchless faucets seem cool but some people find them annoying after the novelty wears off.

Match styles and finishes within each room. If your bathroom is brushed nickel, do not mix in chrome randomly.

Consider height and reach. Kitchen faucets need clearance for large pots. Bathroom faucets must reach the bowl properly.

Water pressure matters. Some fixtures require strong pressure to work correctly. 

Installation Process

Most fixture replacements are straightforward. We shut off the water, disconnect the old fixture, clean the area, install the new fixture, and test for leaks.

Faucets usually take one to two hours. Toilets are similar. Sinks can take longer if cabinets or countertops are involved.

Sometimes we run into issues like corroded connections, incorrect supply sizes, or unexpected leaks. That is just part of plumbing work.

DIY vs Professional

Some fixtures are DIY friendly, but there are good reasons to call us:

  • Tight spaces under sinks
  • Old or corroded connections
  • Missing the right tools
  • Wanting it done right the first time
  • Warranty requirements from manufacturers

We fix a lot of DIY installs that leaked or were installed incorrectly. Saving on labor can cost more later.  

Common Problems During Replacement

  • Corroded connections
    Old shutoff valves and supply lines can seize or break.
  • Non-standard measurements
    New fixtures may not line up perfectly with old sink holes.
  • Hidden damage
    Removing fixtures can reveal rot, mold, or subfloor damage.
  • Wrong parts
    Some fixtures are not compatible with existing plumbing setups. 

Fixture Trends Around Here

In Farmers Branch homes, we commonly see:

Black matte fixtures that look modern
Comfort height toilets for easier use
Pull down kitchen faucets
Brushed nickel and brushed gold finishes
Vessel sinks in powder rooms

Water Efficiency

New fixtures save water and money. A family of four can save over 16,000 gallons a year by replacing an old toilet with a WaterSense model.

Modern low-flow showerheads provide good pressure while using less water.

Faucets now include flow restrictors that reduce usage without affecting daily comfort. 

Warranty and Quality

Cheap fixtures are tempting but usually not worth it. Quality fixtures last 15 to 20 years or more.

Many come with lifetime warranties on finishes and internal parts. Register products and keep receipts to take advantage of coverage.

Planning A Full Bathroom Refresh

If you are updating multiple fixtures, doing them together saves time and money and keeps everything consistent.

We can replace toilets, faucets, shower trim, and accessories like towel bars and toilet paper holders in a single day in many cases. 

Do Not Forget The Little Things

We replace supply lines, shutoff valves when needed, and worn components during fixture installs, including professional shower installation when upgrading your bathroom.

Before we leave, we test everything. We check for leaks, verify drainage, test flush performance, and confirm proper water pressure.
