Introduction |
| Use this guide to replace a kitchen faucet (single-hole faucet and pull-down spray). | | | A simple problem of a kitchen faucet can be fixed by replacing a part or two parts. However, ''''''if the faucet has multiple problems, such as leakage, a squeaky handle, rust, or low water pressure, it might need to be replaced. If the replacement is done by a plumber, including removing an old faucet and installing a new one, it could cost at least $150, but the labor fee can be saved by replacing the faucet yourself. | | | Some resources cover other methods for replacing the faucet, but they might be hard to follow for people who are not familiar with mechanical repairs. The instruction is intended to create a clear, easy-to-follow guide with photographs of each step. | | | Be sure to turn off water valves completely | | | Since it’s the fix might cause leaks and possible huge damages on furniture and floor. Be sure to completely turn off water valves under the sink. For some cases, the main water valve can be shut off as well. |
