The short answer

Replacing a bathroom faucet means matching the new faucet to the holes in the sink or counter, removing the old one, often the hardest part when nuts are corroded, and connecting new supply lines. If the shut-off valves under the sink are old, they are usually replaced at the same time.

Look at the sink holes before shopping. A single hole takes a single-handle faucet. Three holes 4 inches apart take a centerset faucet; three holes 8 inches apart take a widespread faucet. Cover plates can adapt a single-hole faucet to a three-hole sink. Vessel sinks need a tall faucet or a wall-mounted spout.

Under-sink space in Miami bathrooms is often tight, and old mounting nuts can be fused with corrosion. A plumber has basin wrenches and cutting tools for that. If your faucet only drips and parts are available, a repair costs less.

Common causes

  • Discontinued partsNo cartridge or stem is available for the old faucet.
  • A cracked or corroded bodyLeaks from the faucet body itself cannot be fixed with internal parts.
  • A worn finishPitting and flaking finishes catch scale and grime and look worn.
  • A layout changeA new sink or counter calls for a faucet that fits its holes.

What may be inspected

  • The number and spacing of holes in the sink or counter
  • The shut-off valves and supply line size
  • The drain assembly, often replaced with the faucet
  • Space under the sink and the condition of the cabinet floor

Questions about faucet replacement

Count the holes and measure between the outer ones: one hole, 4 inch centerset or 8 inch widespread.

Yes, with a deck plate that covers the extra holes.

Many faucets come with a matching drain. Replacing both at once avoids mismatched finishes and old seals.

Old valves can seize or leak when turned. New ones are inexpensive while the faucet is out.

Many plumbers install a faucet you supply. Have the model number ready on the call.

Often an hour or two, longer if old nuts are seized or the drain is replaced too.

Yes. Vessel sinks need a tall deck-mounted faucet or a wall-mounted spout.

When the body is sound, parts exist and only a drip or handle leak is the problem.

Not by itself. Clean the drain and stopper too, or replace the drain with the faucet.

Yes. Finishes are a matter of choice; some resist spots and scale better.
