Plumbing Fixture Installation Services

Faucets, toilets, sinks, and disposals installed right.

Fixture installation is one of the most common reasons homeowners call a plumber — and one of the most commonly underestimated. A faucet swap looks simple until the angle stops won't close, the supply lines are the wrong length, or the old basin nut won't budge. McDade Plumbing installs faucets, toilets, sinks, shower valves, garbage disposals, hose bibs, and water filtration systems across North Texas the right way the first time.

We'll install the fixture you bought, or recommend a quality model based on what we install most often without callbacks. Either way, the job is done by a licensed plumber who has installed thousands of fixtures, with leak testing, clean caulking, and a tested final result before we leave.

Most fixture installs take less than an hour. Bigger projects — multiple bathrooms during a remodel, kitchen overhauls, or whole-house fixture upgrades — get scheduled around your project and finished cleanly so the rest of your contractors can keep moving.

Common Causes

Old fixtures wearing out

Cartridges, washers, and supply lines all wear with use. Eventually replacement is more cost-effective than another repair.

Persistent leaks or drips

A faucet that won't stop dripping, or a toilet that runs constantly, is usually a sign that the internal parts have reached the end of their life.

Remodel or upgrade

New kitchens and bathrooms almost always include new fixtures. We handle the plumbing side cleanly so the cabinetry and tile look their best.

Damaged shutoff valves

Angle stops behind toilets and sinks freeze up over the years. Replacing them at install time prevents future emergency calls.

Failed garbage disposals

Disposals last about 8 to 12 years on average. Replacement is straightforward and dramatically improves kitchen function.

Outdated shower valves

Old single-handle shower valves can lose pressure balance and scald when another fixture is used. Modern valves fix this.

Accessibility upgrades

Comfort-height toilets, hand showers, and easy-grip handles make a big difference for aging-in-place homes.

Warning Signs to Watch For

  • Constant drips or leaks

    Dripping faucets waste water, stain fixtures, and often signal a worn-out cartridge or seat.

  • Running toilet that won't stop

    A running toilet typically means a worn flapper, fill valve, or both. Fixing it can save thousands of gallons per year.

  • Low water flow or weak spray

    Sediment in older fixtures restricts flow. New fixtures often solve the problem permanently.

  • Wobbly toilets

    A rocking toilet means a damaged wax ring, broken flange, or rotting subfloor — all worth professional attention.

  • Leaky disposal

    Water dripping from the bottom of the disposal means the internal seal has failed and the unit needs replacement.

  • Mineral buildup on faucets and showerheads

    Hard water deposits never look as good as new fixtures. An upgrade is often easier than constant cleaning.

  • Outdated style during a remodel

    Even when a fixture still works, a planned upgrade is the right time to take care of supply lines and shutoffs.

Our Repair Process

  1. 01

    Pre-install evaluation

    We confirm fitment, check the condition of supply lines and shutoffs, and identify any issues before starting.

  2. 02

    Old fixture removal

    Careful removal protects countertops, cabinets, and walls — no damage to the surrounding finishes.

  3. 03

    Quality install with new parts

    We replace supply lines, shutoffs, and seals at install time when warranted — not three months later on a callback.

  4. 04

    Leak testing

    Every connection is pressure-tested and visually checked before we consider the job complete.

  5. 05

    Clean caulking and finish work

    Caulk lines, escutcheons, and trim are finished cleanly — the fixture looks as good as it works.

  6. 06

    Cleanup and walkthrough

    We haul away the old fixture, clean up the area, and show you how to operate any new features.

A professional install eliminates the small mistakes that lead to callbacks and water damage.

Improved look and feel

Clean, properly seated fixtures make kitchens and bathrooms feel updated even without a full remodel.

Many fixture warranties are only valid when installed by a licensed plumber.
