You have a problem that only someone with plumbing skills can fix: You want a new fixture for your sink or you have a leaky faucet.
You’ve got the money to but a new faucet, but you’re not sure if you can install it if you buy it.
Basically you want to know if you need to hire a plumber to install your new faucet.
Do You Need A Plumber To Install A Faucet?
Faucets today are more than just fixtures to access hot and cold water. They’re status symbols in some regard.
A nice faucet says something about the home and homeowner. Faucet upgrades are some of the most common plumbing jobs done today.
But the truth is that swapping out a new faucet for an old one shouldn’t be that difficult. I want to stress the “shouldn’t” part.
If there are no other issues discovered in the removal of the old faucet, the job of putting in a sink fixture shouldn’t take much longer than an hour or so.
The tool that you’ll primarily need is a basin wrench. You’ll also need a towel and small bucket.
But what if you don’t know what a basin wrench is? Well, you might want to call a plumber.
