Low flow or a sputtering spout
Before you replace a faucet for low pressure, we check the aerator, the cartridge and the shut-off valves. Often one of them is the cause.

Kitchen faucet problems we fix in Addison
Whether you picked a pull-down, a touchless or a bridge faucet, we fit it to your sink or counter in Addison, cover or reuse the extra holes, and connect it with new supply lines.
Leaking from the handle
A handle that weeps while you run water has a failed seal under it. We open it up and tell you whether a part solves it.
Pull-down sprayer that won't retract
Sprayer heads that droop often need the weight moved or a worn hose replaced. It's a quick fix.
Faucet leaking from the base
Water pooling around the base of the spout usually means worn O-rings inside the swivel. On an older faucet, replacement is often the better call.
Old two-handle faucet with a side sprayer
If the side sprayer dribbles and the handles drip, it's time for a new faucet. One-handle pull-downs are the usual replacement.
Hole count doesn't match the new faucet
We match the faucet to what's there: one hole, three holes or an undermount counter we can core-drill.
Shut-off valves that won't turn
Faucet swaps often stop at the valves: old multi-turn stops seize or leak when turned. We replace them with quarter-turn valves.
Wanting a touchless faucet
Touchless faucets need power under the sink, either batteries or a plug-in adapter. We plan the control box and its power when we install.
What we hook up and check
- Shut off and removeWater off, supply lines disconnected and the old faucet unbolted.
- Replace valves when neededSeized or leaking stops replaced with quarter-turn valves.

Kitchen Faucet Installation questions from Addison homeowners
My new faucet doesn't fit my sink holes. What now?
We cover leftover holes or use them for a soap dispenser or filter tap, and drill stone when needed.
Can you add a filtered-water faucet?
We install filtered-water faucets alongside the main one, connected to an under-sink filter.
What does a faucet installation cost?
We price it after a look at the setup, and it comes in writing.
How long does it take to install a kitchen faucet?
Often an hour or two. Seized valves, a stuck old faucet or a new hole in stone add time.
Do I need a plumber to install a faucet?
We recommend it, especially when the shut-off valves are old or the faucet needs a new hole. A licensed plumber makes the connections on every faucet we install.
Addison contractor registration: do kitchen contractors need it?
Addison does not require contractor registration, but trade licenses and a Letter of Intent must be submitted with each permit application. We take care of that before work starts.
Does Addison have lead service lines?
The Village's 2025 Water Quality Report includes lead service line and home plumbing information. A filter certified for lead reduction is a sensible step until your line is confirmed or replaced.
Does faucet installation need a Addison building permit, and who files it?
Permits go through Community Development Department (Building & Zoning), phone (630) 693-7530. When your scope needs one, we prepare the application and schedule the inspections.
Do I need a permit for faucet installation in Addison?
It depends on the scope. Addison's rule in short: Addison's Building Division states building permits are required by code for all work; most applications are reviewed within 10 business days through the online portal. We handle the permit when one is needed with Community Development Department (Building & Zoning).
