Signs You Need a New Hose Bib

The process of replacing a hose bib can be complicated, particularly if the fixture is old or in poor condition. Typically the hose bib will attach to copper or galvanized piping in the wall, and could even be soldered on. The removal procedure must be done very carefully, so you don’t break the attached pipes. It’s incredibly simple to install the new fixture after the old one has been carefully removed. If a hose bib was sealed with mortar, it can fall apart with age, this is usually seen in brick houses. Eventually, with a mortar falling apart, this will lead to leaks and can sometimes be the primary cause of the hose bib problems. Call now! Hose Bib Replacement Vancouver WA
