Kitchen Faucet Installation
Faucet installation looks simple until you're working under an old sink with corroded shutoff valves and mismatched supply lines — which is most kitchens in NYC's older housing stock.
We install new kitchen faucets and replace worn units, including pull-down and pull-out styles, touchless models, and matching soap dispensers or filtered water taps, adapting to existing sink hole configurations wherever possible.
Old shutoff valves are often the hidden obstacle in faucet swaps — corroded or seized valves are replaced as needed so the new faucet doesn't inherit an old leak point.

Common Causes
What Usually Causes This
Realistic explanations, not a diagnosis of your specific property — an on-site visit confirms the actual cause.
- Worn internal cartridges or seals that no longer create a tight shutoff, causing constant dripping
- Corroded or seized shutoff valves beneath the sink that fail when the faucet is finally serviced
- Mineral buildup restricting flow through an aging faucet's internal passages
- A loose mounting nut beneath the sink letting the faucet wobble at the base

NYC Considerations
What's Different About NYC Housing
- Older NYC kitchens frequently have original, corroded shutoff valves that need replacement during a faucet swap, which we check for upfront rather than after the fact
- Prewar sink configurations sometimes have non-standard hole spacing that affects which faucet styles fit without an escutcheon plate
