Fixture Installation & Repair Services

Taking care of your property’s plumbing system is essential to keeping clean water in and flushing your property’s waste out. Unfortunately, many property owners rarely think about their plumbing systems until an issue arises. By then, they’re left with an extensive mess and end up paying a large repair or replacement bill.

Additionally, faulty plumbing fixtures waste a lot of money unless the damage is addressed on time. For instance, a seemingly minor leak could waste a lot of water. It only takes about 4000 drips to lose a liter of water. Indeed, a single drip per minute from one faucet in your property adds up to 1,440 drips daily, which means you will be losing 34 gallons of water per year.

Plumbing issues not only affect water pressure and pipes, but they can also cause extensive water-related damage to your property. A water leak that goes undetected in a wall or under a sink can lead to pipe corrosion, mold growth, and wood rot. Addressing the long-term damage associated with plumbing leaks is costly and a big headache for homeowners due to the long list of inconveniences associated with such issues.

The good news is that these issues can be prevented. Ensuring professionals with Conejo Valley Home Services Plumbing & Rooter for plumbing fixture installation, timely repairs, and replacement is an effective strategy to prevent minor leaks that can turn into extensive problems in the future. Indeed, this can minimize energy costs, conserve water, and extend the lifespan of your plumbing system.

Plumbing Fixture Installation, Repair, and Replacement

Repair-replace-repair-replace – many homeowners face this unrelenting cycle with their plumbing fixtures, and it can be very exhausting. However, reducing the constant churn of plumbing fixture repair and replacements begins with choosing the right fixtures for your home. It’s also recommended to ensure proper fixture installation and timely, ongoing maintenance.

One of the essential factors that influence the overall lifespan of plumbing fixtures is product quality. Durable plumbing fixtures are specially designed to withstand heavy use and probably the occasional abuse they’re likely subjected to, particularly in high traffic environments. Such fixtures are more likely to last long compared to substandard products.

Preventive maintenance can also prolong the lifespan of your fixtures. For instance, if you have installed manual faucets, you should flush the aerators routinely to remove debris that may have accumulated. Also, you should replace the cartridges if they’re beginning to fail. And it is possible to reduce maintenance costs by selecting ceramic cartridges with a warranty (lifetime).

Generally, installing new plumbing fixtures, repairing faulty ones, or replacing old fixtures offers you the chance to give your property a new look while enhancing your comfort. It is tempting to handle some plumbing installations, repairs, or replacements on your own. After all, there are countless DIY plumbing resources online.

But suppose you need your fixtures to be efficient and last long. In that case, you’ll need the help of a professional to ensure the entire project is done excellently and up to the construction codes and other relevant regulations.

When to Replace and When to Repair Plumbing Fixtures

Well, the “replace or repair” debate. You have probably heard it and offered opinions on when to repair or replace bathroom plumbing fixtures, kitchen plumbing fixtures, and other essential plumbing fixtures. The question about whether to replace or repair plumbing fixtures is prevalent, and for a good reason. No property owner wants to replace a fixture that they could simply repair. At the same time, it doesn’t make economic sense to keep on repairing a plumbing fixture that keeps on breaking down.

For this reason, it can be challenging to figure out the right choice, and the stakes can be quite high. Contact a plumbing expert if you’re unsure whether you should replace or repair your property’s plumbing fixtures. They can perform an on-site evaluation to determine what can be repaired and what must be replaced. Here are essential questions that will help you figure out whether you need plumbing fixture repair or replacement.

By far the best and most reliable company I've ever used. I've had nothing but good experiences with their plumbing services as well as their Air Conditioning Service. Professional in every sense of the way. Would absolutely recommend them to anyone who wants honest reasonably priced services. Thank you so much.

Very professional and incredibly responsive. We were without hot water and they took care of our situation incredibly quickly. It was not a simple process and they put in overtime to get us done. Very happy and will certainly use them again.

These guys are great! They were prompt, courteous and knowledgeable. And they are careful to not leave a mess (and they even use shoe covers to walk around in your house)! What more could you ask for? A great experience and I will use them again!

Conejo Valley replaced our A/C and furnace in 2014, and just replaced our 20 year old tank water heater today. We switched from tank to tankless and were very impressed with the work. The technicians were very knowledgeable and organized; for us, the installation took only 3 hours as the space was pretty easy to access. I highly recommend Conejo Valley! The office called as soon as they left to check on how the installation went. Great customer service. To the technicians, thanks for your hard work!

Exceptional service from making an appointment with Nancy to Nick repairing leak under kitchen sink. Extremely professional, arrived on time, wear booties (not necessary for me), offered to wear a mask, respectful and neat. Reasonable fair pricing which turned out to be nothing major. I will use them again if needed. Thank you.

Our 20 year old furnace broke down for good over the Christmas break. And it got wet and cold…This team was able to come and quote a new heating system and have it installed, in under 6 days!They were on time, very respectful, and kept us posted continuously throughout the project.We would definitely use them again, and we strongly recommend them!

Art did an excellent job. He stayed late on a rainy day to ensure my drain was working. He talked me thru the entire process and took the extra time to locate the issue and fix it as best he could. He got our drain working and gave us the long term solution and cost. I’d definitely use this company and specifically Art again.

1. Are the fixtures made of outdated material?

Suppose your answer to this question is a resounding “yes.” In that case, it supersedes other considerations. Nearly all old plumbing pipes and other related fixtures are inefficient and prone to damage. They can also pose health risks and other dangers to the people living on that property. For instance, pipes installed in the 70s and 80s are likely to contain lead compounds that could poison your water.

Even if you are repairing or replacing non-pipe plumbing fixtures, it’s essential to consider the age of the fixture. For instance, an old water softener, faucet, water heater, or showerhead may not work efficiently compared to similar fixtures made of modern materials and technologies. It’s also important to consider whether replacing a bathroom faucet would help you make significant savings in the long run, particularly if you intend to stay in that property for an extended period.

2. How often do you have problems with the plumbing fixture?

You probably know that a single first leak is a simple thing. But eight different leaks in the same year is entirely a different thing. So, keep track of the plumbing issues to decide whether you should replace or repair a given plumbing fixture. For instance, if you repair a leak, will you have to address the same problem a few weeks later?

Keep in mind that each plumbing fixture has unique “canary in the coal mine” repair-related challenges. For instance, water pipes become corroded or clog frequently. Toilets are likely to clog more frequently compared to pipes and may constantly run no matter the number of parts you repair. On the other hand, showerheads can stop working, even after you have cleaned them.

It is recommended to figure out the kind of plumbing issues you struggle with and how often you face these issues. Repairing plumbing fixtures won’t make much sense if you will be back to square one within a month or less. In this case, it’s way better to replace the plumbing fixture.

3. How much longer will the current fixture last?

Even when you’re confident that the repaired plumbing fixture will not bother you for an extended period, it’s essential to consider its current age and how much longer it can stay efficient. Even the sturdiest fixtures have specific lifespans, and repairs might be the first sign of a plumbing fixture succumbing to its age.

Therefore, it’s imperative to figure out the age of the fixture, when you installed it, how frequently you use it, and how much longer it can last after repair. This will give you an idea of the problem you are dealing with and whether to repair or replace the fixture.

4. What’s the cost of not replacing the fixture?

Now that you know the age of the faulty plumbing fixture, how frequent you have been facing the problem, and how long the fixture is likely to last, find out how much money you are likely to spend if you don’t replace that faulty fixture. Will the necessary repairs last long enough to justify the entire cost of repair? Will you live in the property long enough to repair the fixture again?

Although it’s nearly impossible to determine accurately the long-term cost of repairing a plumbing fixture instead of replacing it, you can still make an educated guess. Also, consult with an experienced plumbing fixture expert like Conejo Valley Home Services Plumbing & Rooter to determine whether you should replace or repair plumbing fixtures.

Cost of Plumbing Fixture Installation and Repairs

The cost of installing and repairing plumbing fixtures varies widely depending on a broad range of factors. Once you have decided to hire a plumber to perform fixture installations or repairs, it’s essential to get a quote from them to estimate the amount of money the entire project is likely to cost. Be sure to compare quotes from different plumbing companies and hire one that offers cost-effective plumbing fixture installations and repairs.

The cost of plumbing fixture installation or repairs will depend on the following factors:

The specific plumbing problem to be addressed
Complexity of the plumbing problem
The nature and amount of materials to be used
Urgency (how long does the contractor have to complete the project?)

Although the cost of plumbing fixture installations and repairs can be relatively high sometimes, it’s recommended to have the job done by professionals. DIY plumbing installations and repairs come with costly mistakes that may also endanger your safety and health. So, hiring a reliable plumbing contractor can save you time, money and offer you peace of mind by making sure everything is done up to the code.
