What Light Plumbing Services Do You Offer?
We replace kitchen and bathroom faucets, install garbage disposals, fix running toilets, replace toilet fill valves and flappers, swap showerheads and hand-held sprayers, install supply line connections for dishwashers and ice makers, fix minor leaks under sinks, and replace P-traps and drain assemblies.
How Much Does Light Plumbing Cost?
Faucet replacement runs $100–$200 (labor, your faucet). Garbage disposal installation costs $150–$250 including the unit. Toilet repair (fill valve, flapper) is $75–$125. Showerhead replacement is $50–$75. We always quote before starting so there are no surprises.
How Tampa Bay's Hard Water Affects Your Plumbing Fixtures
Tampa Bay has notoriously hard water with high mineral content. Over time, calcium and mineral deposits build up inside faucet aerators, showerheads, and supply valves, reducing water pressure and shortening fixture life. If your faucet has weak flow or your showerhead sprays unevenly, mineral buildup is often the culprit. We replace affected fixtures and, where possible, install aerators or showerheads designed to resist mineral clogging. For homeowners on well water, fixture wear accelerates even further, so annual checks are worth scheduling.
When to Upgrade a Fixture Instead of Repairing It
Replacing a fixture rather than repairing it often makes more financial sense when the part is over ten years old, when replacement parts are hard to source, or when the fixture is low quality to begin with. A new faucet costs between $50 and $250 at a home improvement store and can dramatically improve the look and function of a kitchen or bathroom. We help you weigh the repair versus replace decision honestly -- we will tell you when fixing the old fixture is the smarter move and when putting that money toward a quality replacement saves more in the long run.
