Fixture Upgrades in Chicago for Kitchens and Baths

New fixtures improve function, safety, and upkeep. We replace aging faucets, sinks, lighting, and handles with units that fit your lines, wiring, and water pressure. Chicago Home Remodel coordinates ordering, staging, and installation to keep the process orderly. Work areas protected.

Scope of Modern Fixture Upgrades

We focus on fixtures that matter day to day. Kitchens and baths see constant use, so parts must withstand steam, splashes, and frequent cleaning. Selections are based on performance data, code needs, and manufacturer guidance.

Benefits of New Faucets, Sinks, Lighting and Handles

  • Water savings with efficient aerators and cartridge designs
  • Safer wiring and brighter task zones with updated lighting plans
  • Easier cleaning with spot-resistant surfaces and sealed edges
  • Better grip and access using lever handles and reachable controls

Product Selection and Compatibility Checks

Each fixture must match supply lines, drains, and mounting points. We verify pressure, valve type, and sink or vanity dimensions before orders are placed.

Plumbing fit and clearances

We review trap location, rough heights, and wall backing so installs proceed without rework.

Electrical load and lighting layout

Fixture wattage, switch positions, and GFCI placement are planned to meet safety requirements.

Finish coordination

Metals, sink shapes, and faucet profiles are aligned with doors, counters, and tile for a consistent look.

Installation Process for Fixture Upgrades

  • Removal and prep. Shutoffs are tested, old units removed, and contact areas cleaned.
  • Rough checks. Valves, drains, boxes, and studs are verified and adjusted if needed.
  • Set and secure. New fixtures are leveled, anchored, and sealed at required points.
  • Test and finish. Water lines, traps, switches, and lights are tested before final caulk and trim.

Scheduling and warranty

Projects are scheduled after selections and approvals. Typical fixture packages install in one to two days per room, pending access and lead times. Manufacturer warranties apply as published; service calls are coordinated through our office with documented notes.

FAQs

Typical packages cover faucets, sinks, drains, shower trim, lighting, and door or cabinet handles, based on site conditions and scope.
Most rooms finish in one to two days. Larger kitchens or multi-bath projects may extend due to tile work, glass, or electrical changes.
Simple swaps often proceed without permits. Electrical rework, new circuits, or plumbing relocation may trigger filings under city requirements.
Compatibility is checked during assessment. Adapters, escutcheons, or minor rough adjustments are planned if existing parts differ from new specifications.
Wipe water spots and check caulk lines and hardware periodically.
