Replacing
or updating a bathroom faucet can add style and performance to your
faucet. Bathroom faucets come in an array of colors, styles and can save
water at the same time. For this project you will need: A faucet,
adjustable wrenches, pliers, basin wrench, bucket, plumbers putty and a
sponge.
To begin remove the old faucet by turning off the water supply.
Disconnect the water supply using a wrench. Use a basin wrench to remove
the nuts holding the old faucet in place. On the new faucet apply putty
to the putty groove on the underside of the putty plate.
Fit the putty
plate and deck plate on the pre-cut sink holes. Insert the faucet into
the hole. From underneath, secure the faucet with the hardware and screw
into place. Install the stopper, life rod and lever. Wipe away any
excess putty with a wet sponge. Attach the water line, turn on the water
and check for leaks. Tighten if any are present.
A new faucet that not only looks good, but one that performs better in
just a few easy steps. For more helpful tips like these, visit
