Signs You Need Kitchen Sink Replacement
The kitchen faucet is one of the most-used fixtures in your home. You use it to wash dishes before putting them into the dishwasher, wash food before cooking, and prepare meals.
If you love spending time in the kitchen, you owe it to yourself to have a faucet that’s a joy to use.
If your faucet works, you may not think it needs replacing, but consider the following signs that it might be time for an upgrade.
Mineral Deposits
Hard water leaves mineral deposits behind, and unfortunately, not just on the outside of the fixture. Mineral deposits build up inside pipes and faucets and affect performance. If your kitchen sink isn’t providing the water pressure you’re used to; it could be the minerals mucking it up.
Corrosion
If the faucet’s handle sticks or creaks when you use it or water takes longer to flow than before, it usually means the inside of the fixture is rusting. Once the faucet starts deteriorating, there isn’t much you can do to stop it.
Persistent Leaks
Replacing worn-out parts fixes many faucet issues, but if you have a faucet that leaks no matter what you do, you get to the point where you’re better off putting the money spent on repairs towards a new faucet.
Lack of Features
If you have an old faucet, you probably don’t have many of the modern features that come with today’s models. Some kitchen sinks have built-in smart technology and come in various styles to perfectly fit your kitchen style.
If you think it’s time to replace your old kitchen faucet, call the experts at Quahog Plumbing today for a consultation.
Reasons To Consider A Garbage Disposal Installation
The debate of whether garbage disposals are worth the money continues with ‘experts’ arguing the pros and cons.
However, we believe the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, so here are the most common reasons you should consider getting a garbage disposal.
Convenience
Cleaning up after a meal is quicker when you can wash off food debris into the drain and flip a switch to dispose of the waste before putting the dishes in the dishwasher.
It’s Better For The Environment
If you’re a homeowner concerned about recycling and the health of the environment, then a garbage disposal is a good choice. Putting food waste into the disposal instead of the trash means less waste going to a landfill.
It Eliminates Odors
Leftover waste in the trash stinks up the kitchen if you don’t take the garbage out regularly. Putting food scraps into the garbage disposal means your kitchen doesn’t end up smelling like a garbage dump.
Fewer Clogs
Grinding up food waste means there’s less chance your pipes and drains will clog.
If you’re still not convinced that a garbage disposal is right for you, call us to show you what models and features are available.
