Short answer: Plumbing installation covers putting in a new fixture — a faucet, toilet, garbage disposal, water heater, or other component — and connecting it properly to existing supply and drain lines.
Installation is different from repair or replacement in one important way: it's usually planned rather than reactive. Homeowners install new fixtures as part of a remodel, to upgrade an outdated piece, or to add something that wasn't there before.
Getting an installation right the first time matters — connections that aren't properly sealed or fixtures that don't match existing rough-in dimensions can cause leaks down the line.
Signs You May Need This Service
- A fixture that no longer matches the rest of a remodeled space
- Old shutoff valves or supply lines that no longer seal reliably
- A fixture that's outdated but still functional and worth planning for
What the Service Typically Involves
- Confirming rough-in dimensions and existing supply-line compatibility
- Installing the fixture and connecting supply and drain lines
- Testing for leaks under normal water pressure before finishing the job
