When to Replace a Faucet

Faucet replacement makes sense in several situations:

  • The faucet is more than 10 to 15 years old and showing ongoing issues
  • Parts are no longer available or cost more than a new unit is worth
  • The faucet body is corroded, cracked, or the finish has deteriorated past the point of restoration
  • You are renovating and want to update the look and features at the same time
  • The existing faucet wastes water and a WaterSense-rated model would meaningfully reduce consumption
  • You are replacing the sink and it makes sense to update the faucet at the same time

If you are unsure whether replacement is the right call, we assess the situation on arrival and give you a straight answer.

Faucet Installation and Replacement

Kitchen Faucets

Kitchen faucet replacement is one of the most common and most straightforward plumbing upgrades in a Montreal home. It improves daily function, updates the look of the sink area, and in most cases takes under two hours including the supply hose replacement.

We install all kitchen faucet styles:

  • Standard single-hole faucets
  • Two-handle widespread faucets (three-hole configuration)
  • Pull-down and pull-out spray faucets
  • Touchless and motion-sensor faucets
  • High-arc and industrial-style faucets
  • Pot filler faucets (wall-mount, swing-arm style)

What we check during kitchen faucet installation: the number of pre-drilled holes in your sink or countertop (which determines compatible faucet styles), supply hose condition (we replace both supply hoses at the same time as standard practice), the shut-off valve condition (a corroded or seized shut-off valve discovered during a replacement is dealt with the same day), and drain basket alignment if the sink is being replaced simultaneously.

Bathroom Faucets

Bathroom sink faucet styles are largely determined by your sink's existing hole configuration:

  • Single-hole (one-handle faucet, or a two-handle faucet on a deck plate)
  • Three-hole widespread (two handles and spout separately positioned)
  • Wall-mount faucets (common in vessel sink installations and some older Montreal buildings)

We install all types. For bathroom vanity upgrades where the sink and faucet are being changed together, we coordinate the work to minimize disruption and ensure the drain, P-trap, and supply lines are correctly configured for the new fixtures.

Outdoor and Utility Faucets

Exterior hose bibs (outdoor faucets) take significant thermal stress in Montreal winters. A hose bib that was not properly shut off and drained before winter can crack internally and leak inside the wall cavity when it thaws. We replace damaged outdoor faucets and can install frost-free sillcock models, which drain automatically when shut off and significantly reduce the risk of winter damage.

We also install utility sink faucets in laundry rooms, garages, and basements.

Sink Installation and Replacement

Kitchen Sinks

Kitchen sink replacement is often done during a renovation or countertop upgrade. The primary distinction is mount style:

Undermount sinks are installed below the countertop surface, with the rim hidden and the countertop material running to the edge of the cutout. They require a solid countertop material (granite, quartz, solid surface, or butcher block sealed against moisture). The advantage is a clean, seamless look and easy wipe-off of water directly into the sink. Installation requires careful sealing at the countertop edge to prevent water infiltration over time.

Topmount (drop-in) sinks sit on top of the countertop with their rim visible and resting on the surface. They are compatible with any countertop material and are the simpler installation, making them the practical choice for laminate countertops.

Farmhouse (apron front) sinks require custom cabinetry clearance and specific installation support. We assess the cabinet configuration before installation and advise on any modifications needed.

During kitchen sink installation we replace the drain basket and strainer as standard, reconnect the P-trap and drain arm to the new sink depth, reattach or replace the garbage disposal if present, and reconnect the dishwasher drain inlet.

Bathroom Sinks

Bathroom sink types include vanity-mounted sinks (topmount or undermount into the vanity top), vessel sinks (sitting on top of the counter with a tall faucet), pedestal sinks, and wall-mount sinks. Each has different support requirements, drain configurations, and P-trap positioning.

Wall-mount sinks require adequate wall blocking behind the drywall to support the weight of the fixture. In older Montreal homes where walls have been opened for other work, we confirm blocking is present before installation.


What We Check on Every Installation

A faucet or sink installed correctly the first time avoids the most common causes of under-sink water damage. On every job we:

Replace both supply hoses. Aged braided supply hoses are one of the most frequent causes of under-sink flooding. We replace them as standard during any faucet installation, not as an upsell.

Check the shut-off valves. A seized or corroded shut-off valve found during a faucet installation is dealt with the same day. Finding it then is far better than finding it during an emergency.

Pressure-test before leaving. We confirm there are no drips at any connection point before we pack up.

Check drain alignment. When a sink is being replaced, we confirm the P-trap and drain arm are correctly sized and sloped to the existing drain line.


Hard Water and Faucet Longevity in Montreal

Montreal's water supply carries dissolved calcium and magnesium at moderate levels. Over time this creates white mineral deposits on faucet surfaces and aerator screens. A few practical notes:

Faucet aerators benefit from cleaning every 6 to 12 months. Unscrew the tip of the faucet, soak the screen in white vinegar for 30 minutes, and rinse. This maintains pressure and extends the life of the fixture. If your faucet pressure has dropped noticeably at a single fixture, a blocked aerator is almost always the cause.

Chrome finishes hold up best to Montreal's water. Brushed nickel and matte black finishes require more frequent wiping to prevent visible mineral spotting. Keep this in mind when choosing a finish for a heavily used kitchen or bathroom.

FAQ

Minor issues like a worn washer or gasket can usually be repaired quickly and inexpensively. However, if your faucet is old, leaking around the base, corroded, or constantly dripping despite repairs, replacement is often the more cost-effective solution and can give your kitchen or bathroom a completely new look.

We install all faucet types including single-handle and double-handle faucets, pull-down and pull-out sprayers, touchless faucets, utility and laundry faucets, shower and bathtub faucets, outdoor hose bibs, and garage or basement utility faucets.

Yes. An unresolved leak — whether a constant drip or a leak around the base of the sink — can lead to water damage under cabinets, mold growth, and higher water bills over time. Addressing it promptly with a professional repair or replacement prevents more costly problems down the line.

Yes. In addition to faucets, we install new sinks for kitchen and bathroom renovations or new construction projects. Our plumbers ensure all connections are properly sealed and that there are no leaks after installation.

Most faucet replacements can be completed in one to two hours. Our licensed plumbers arrive on time, complete the installation cleanly, and leave no mess behind.

Yes. We offer faucet and sink installation and repair services in Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, Brossard, Terrebonne, Blainville and throughout the greater Montreal area. Call 514-447-3700 to book an appointment.

No. Like-for-like replacement of faucets and sinks in the same location does not require a permit. Work that involves moving supply lines or adding new fixtures may require one, and we advise accordingly.
