If you’re like most people, you don’t pay your faucets much mind. You just turn the handle on, fill your cup, and go. It can be easy to forget that they’re our only source of fresh water.

Comprehensive Sink and Faucet Service in Ephrata

Why It’s Best to Hire a Professional for Faucet Repair in Ephrata

Minor faucet problems are usually pretty easy to fix yourself. You can replace an o-ring or washer with a trip to a hardware store. Unfortunately, however, other reasons faucets break or leak can be tougher to handle. First, you’d have to identify the source of the problem, which could be any number of faulty, worn, or broken internal components. Then, you have to disassemble the faucet, replace the component, and reassemble without making any mistakes.

This is where pros like the plumbing experts at Vertex Mechanical can help. Our plumbers can quickly and capably identify and fix your faucet’s problem whenever you call us—no matter your faucet’s age, type, or problem.

Picking the Right Faucet

At first glance, faucets may appear to be simple devices, but they actually have a surprising number of options and features. When choosing a new faucet in Ephrata, it’s important to understand the features which differentiate one style and model from another.

• Finish Materials: At one time, most kitchen faucets had a chrome finish. However, today’s kitchen and bath faucets are available in a variety of finishing materials, including bronze, nickel, gold, brass, stainless steel and PVD (physical vapor deposition).
• Spout Height and Reach: The height and reach of the spout have aesthetic and practical applications. Today, many people prefer a “swan’s neck” faucet style for looks and functionality. The height and sink depth for kitchen fixtures provide greater clearance for larger pans, pots, and dishes.
• New Technology: Newer faucets offer a variety of convenience features. You can enjoy hands-free operation, faster fill rates, a greater range of motion, spot resistance, and smartphone water temperature control.

Regardless which faucet you pick for your kitchen or bathroom in Ephrata, Vertex's plumbers are here to help you install it. We are also proud to stand behind our plumbing services with a satisfaction guarantee.
