  • Project Type: Residential Plumbing Installation

Understanding the Key Components of Your Sink Installation

1. Faucet Installation: Choosing the Right One for Your Home

The kitchen faucet is one of the most frequently used fixtures in any home, and choosing the right one can improve convenience and efficiency. For this installation, we selected durable, high-quality faucets that provide smooth water flow and modern functionality.

Key Features to Consider in a Faucet:

  • Material & Finish: Stainless steel, chrome, or matte black finishes for durability and style
  • Spout Style: Pull-down or pull-out sprayers for better reach and functionality
  • Handle Type: Single-handle for easy control or double-handle for precise hot/cold water mixing
  • Water Efficiency: Look for faucets with WaterSense certification to reduce water consumption

2. Trapline and Waste Line Installation: Ensuring Proper Drainage

The trapline and waste line are essential parts of your plumbing system, preventing clogs and ensuring proper drainage. In this project, we installed a new PVC P-trap and waste line system under both sinks to prevent leaks, foul odors, and potential water damage.

Why a Properly Installed Drain System Matters:

  • Prevents Leaks: A secure, properly fitted trapline helps avoid leaks that could damage cabinets
  • Stops Sewer Gases: The P-trap holds water to prevent sewer gases from entering your home
  • Enhances Drainage Efficiency: A well-designed waste line ensures smooth water flow, reducing clogs

Common Plumbing Problems Homeowners Face with Sinks & How to Avoid Them

1. Slow or Clogged Drains

Over time, grease, food particles, and soap scum can cause blockages. To prevent this:

  • Avoid pouring grease or coffee grounds down the drain
  • Use a sink strainer to catch debris
  • Flush drains monthly with a mixture of hot water and vinegar

2. Leaking Faucets

A dripping faucet wastes water and increases your utility bill. Common causes include:

  • Worn-out washers or seals
  • Corroded valve seats
  • High water pressure
  • Solution: Regular maintenance and timely part replacement can prevent leaks.

3. Foul Odors from the Drain

If you notice unpleasant smells coming from your sink, it may be due to:

  • A dry P-trap (if the sink isn't used often, the water seal evaporates)
  • Organic buildup in the pipes
  • Solution: Run water through unused drains regularly and clean them with baking soda and vinegar.
