Fixture Installation & Repair

Whether you're renovating a kitchen in the Wilshire-Montana neighborhood or simply replacing a dripping bathroom faucet in a beachside rental, Thomas's Santa Monica Plumbing handles fixture installation and repair with clean, professional results. We work with all fixture types — single and double-handle faucets, pull-down kitchen faucets, vessel sinks, undermount basins, pedestal sinks, shower valves, pressure-balance cartridges, and garbage disposals. We bring the tools to handle tight shut-off valves, corroded supply lines, and any surprises inside older cabinets.

A dripping faucet that releases just one drip per second wastes over 3,000 gallons of water per year — a significant concern in water-conscious Santa Monica. In many cases, a worn cartridge or O-ring is all that needs replacing, and we carry parts for the most common faucet brands on our service vehicles. When the fixture itself is beyond repair or simply outdated, we'll remove the old unit and install your new fixture with the correct supply lines, drain assemblies, and shut-off valves to ensure a leak-free, long-lasting connection.

Garbage disposal installations are another specialty — we ensure proper wiring coordination (with your electrician if hardwiring is needed), correct drain alignment to prevent leaks at the dishwasher knockout, and secure mounting to the sink flange. We also service disposal resets, jammed impellers, and leaking seals before recommending full replacement.
