New Plumbing Fixtures for the New Year
The New Year is a time of hope and excitement when people start to plan for what they want the coming year to hold. One of the things that most homeowners consider during this time of year is how they want to invest in their homes. Renovations and remodels can be expensive, so most people prefer to plan a few months ahead, and it all starts right now.
The home’s plumbing is a great opportunity for upgrades. Upgrading the plumbing can be as simple or as complicated as homeowners want it to be, and it can be custom-planned to fit any budget. Here are a few recommendations from local plumbing and bathroom remodel experts to help homeowners plan for new plumbing projects in their homes during the New Year.
Kitchen Faucet Upgrades 
Upgrading the faucet in the kitchen is a cheap and easy way to breathe new life into a space that is becoming outdated. Over the years, colors and materials have changed for new styles. Gone are the days of cheap, chrome kitchen faucets with two drab handles. Newer, more stylish kitchen faucets have better features that look great and increase the function of the kitchen faucet. Look for options like:
- Single-handle faucets
- Touchless faucets
- Fingerprint-free fixtures
If upgrading the kitchen faucet doesn’t sound like enough to freshen up a space, why not consider replacing the kitchen sink? Upgrading the kitchen sink with the faucets is a great way to upgrade the space while staying on a tight budget. Look for kitchen sinks that go with existing countertops. For example, granite countertops look great with a bottom-mount sink, while tile or butcher block countertops make farmhouse sinks stand out.
Bathroom Remodeling Ideas
The term “bathroom remodel” can be intimidating, but it doesn’t have to be. The term can be used to refer to complete renovations or just some simple and cheap updates to make the space feel new. For in-depth bathroom remodels, homeowners may install new pedestal bathtubs and low-flow toilets for greater comfort and aesthetics. For smaller projects and cheaper budgets, homeowners may simply replace bathroom faucets or upgrade the showerhead for better comfort and relaxation. Either way, there are tons of options that homeowners can choose from to update a space so they can be excited about it once again.
Using Professional Plumbers
With the excitement and enthusiasm of the New Year, some homeowners may be tempted to try DIY renovations or faucet installation. This is generally a bad idea. Who wants to kick off the New Year with a flooded home and an emergency call to a plumber?
There is a reason that plumbers are sought after. Their experience and training allow them to make bathroom remodels and updates quick and easy. Even when homeowners factor in the cost of hiring a professional plumber, they are always surprised and satisfied with how convenient the process becomes compared to a DIY project. Additionally, by hiring a professional, there is no risk of incurring extra costs for repairs when things go wrong.
