Why Hire a Professional Plumber for a "Simple" Fixture Swap?
Most fixture problems we get called to fix were installed by someone else — cross-threaded supply lines, missing or doubled-up washers, overtightened plastic nuts that crack weeks later, and drains pitched wrong so they gurgle and clog. A faucet swap looks simple until the shutoff valve under the sink will not close, the mounting nuts are corroded solid, or the new fixture does not match the hole pattern in the sink. Our plumbers handle all of that routinely. A professional installation also protects the fixture warranty — many manufacturers require proof of professional installation for warranty claims. We pressure-test every connection before we leave, so you are not discovering a slow drip inside the vanity a month later.

How J&R Handles Fixture Installation in Freeport
- 17% of Freeport’s homes were built before 1940 (median year built 1984), so we check what the house is actually plumbed with before quoting: galvanized, cast iron, early copper or PEX.
- Most of Freeport is on Maine Water Company water, drawn from sand-and-gravel aquifer wells; the pipes, valves and fixtures inside the house are the part we look after.
