As to why the Hot water had a weird smell. He spent close to 30 mins on the phone with me. I will also call Scott whenever I have any plumbing issues."

From design to management to installation—we do it right. No exceptions. If you're ready to successfully complete your kitchen, bathroom, basement, or home remodeling project, schedule your in-home consultation with one of our friendly team members at 847-809-3355.

"We renovated our house in 2008, adding a master bath en suite. The whirlpool tub that was installed never really suited our needs and was actually installed incorrectly, causing some leaks when we used it. So, we needed the tub and sink pulled out. We wanted to keep our steam shower as it was but we were going to put in a new floor, new sink, claw foot tub and add a new coat of paint. Damian came out to assess the job and gave us a quote. He was punctual and totally professional; he answered all questions we had and provided us with all the required paperwork during our free estimate. We were lucky to work with Magda, the designer. She made a few appointments with us prior to our start date to get an idea what we needed. She provided us with a 3D drawing of how our bathroom would look when it was finished, which really helped us to visualize everything. She also met us at the stores to help us pick out our materials. Kuba served as the manager of the job and he was fantastic! He was prompt, let us know where we were in the process and kept us up to date. Magda also stayed in contact with us through the entire job. If we had questions, she answered either by phone call or text right away. The difficulty with our bathroom was maintaining a fluid style. Magda found the tile border that we used in our steam shower so that both sides of the bathroom match. Kuba made gorgeous wood shelves for the cut out in our wall that exactly match our new cabinetry under the sink. The floor tile is beautiful and the paint color on the walls has brightened the whole space! I LOVE MY NEW BATHROOM! The only issue we had with the job was with Studio 41, which provided our fixtures, including the tub. They did not order the correct water pipe setup for the claw foot tub. It had to be ordered from New York and it took two weeks to arrive. Our job was completed far before that and I could not use the tub! And they also had fixtures we ordered at the beginning of the job that they never told us were on backorder. When I reordered different versions of the fixtures, they did not fit!! I had to chase them down and make multiple calls and appearances in their office to get my money back. But we will definitely use 4Ever Remodeling again. We have gotten so many compliments. ?"

FAQs for faucets, fixtures and pipes repair or replace projects in Barrington, IL

A bathtub faucet generally lasts 15 to 20 years, but this can depend on the type of finish and the overall quality of the faucet. Investing in higher-quality faucets often pays off with a longer-lasting product. Additional factors such as hard water, rust, or damage during use can shorten the life span of the faucet.

It's worthwhile to invest in the cost of repairing a leaky faucet if it's newer, but it's advisable to replace it if it's over 20 years old. The severity of the leak also plays a big role. Faucets with major leaks are often not worth the money or hassle of attempting repairs. Generally, a new faucet that leaks probably just needs a part tightened, but for an older faucet, it's a sign that it's time to replace it. Other signs you need to replace the faucet include rust, mineral deposits, or old age.

It usually takes a pro no more than an hour to replace a faucet. However, certain installations are more complex and time-consuming, such as pulling out the plumbing or putting in a showerhead. These types of jobs may take a few hours or even the better part of a day.

There are a few telltale signs that a tub cartridge needs replacing. These include:

  • Dripping water from the faucet

  • Difficulty turning faucet handles

  • Difficulty or inability to adjust water temperatures

  • Hot water coming out of cold-water faucets and vice versa

  • Inadequate heating of water

Yes, you can change a bathtub faucet without turning the water off, but only if you’re changing the faucet spout alone. If you’re changing the entire valve assembly, then the water must get shut off first. If there’s an individual shutoff valve for the bathtub, you can change the faucet without shutting off the entire water main line.
