Can My Vintage or Antique Faucet Be Repaired?

Unique pieces can often be repaired by simply replacing worn out parts.

If you own an older home, you may have a vintage or antique faucet in your washroom or kitchen. For the sake of integrity of your older home, or just because you love it, that faucet may be worth repairing.

Oftentimes faucets or valves are made for the fixture—this is critical because dimensions such as hole diameters and spread cannot be retrofitted with modern hardware. Replacing the hardware can mean replacing the fixture as well, and that can have a dramatic impact on the integrity of the bathroom.

At Classic Plumbing & Air, we can often repair these unique pieces by simply replacing worn out parts if they are still available. Before you buy a new faucet, give us a call for an estimate at (217) 586-7473.
