I don’t want to ruin the rubber seal between the faucet and sink. Also, is that brown stuff getting into my water? Or is the sink protected?

I have stuck my hand down that hole in the kitchen sink a few time to get stuff I dropped down, and have felt the blade on the garbage disposal. It felt nasty down there in the sink hole. The blades didn’t feel sharp, yet they are able to chop up stuff. If I stuck my hand down there, and turned it on, would it chop the bones in my hand into centimeter sized particles. What would happen?

Wouldn’t this help prevent water damage in some cases? Seriously, what’s the deal?

Once in a while, owners realize the need to have changes to improve their homes. For people who want to enhance their kitchen, upgrading the kitchen faucet is the most probable option. A reliable faucet would come in handy for different chores in your kitchen. As the sink is the most used fixture in the kitchen, going out of your way to have those extra features will never be futile. Improving the faucet you have will definitely change your kitchen routine. Aside from being practical, changing it can also have a huge impact on the style a kitchen has.

Replacing the faucet is quite affordable but replacing the sink altogether is a lot more expensive. That may need more than the do-it-yourself steps and you might end up hiring someone else to do the job for you. If changing the sink will take a longer time, there is no need to worry because changing the faucet will do a lot.

The first thing you have to consider is the number of holes mounted in your existing sink. The last thing you want to happen is to buy a set only to find out that it does not fit in your sink. Next, consider the size and depth of the sink so that choosing a fitting faucet would be easy when it is time for you to purchase one. It should not overwhelm your kitchen sink. Most people are satisfied by just looking at the features of a faucet but most of the time, they end up with too high or too low faucets or spouts that are too short to be used. Other mounting holes are needed for other accessories that go with the faucet such as soap and lotion dispenser, sprayer and hot water dispenser.

There are many types of kitchen faucets. There are single-handed ones and double-handled ones. It is most ideal to evaluate the kitchen lifestyle of the house so that the kitchen faucet would be most suitable for your kitchen. Choosing between a single-handle and a two-handle faucet is a matter of personal preference. The differences lie on the temperature and water flow adjustment. The single-handled one basically allows easy manageability. On the other hand, a two-handled one allows more precise adjustments to both the temperature and water flow. Others can be pulled out and can be switched to regular water flow to spray with a touch of a button. Wall mount faucets, as the name suggests, require no deck holes. Holes will be mounted to the wall directly above the sink. All of these kitchen faucet kinds and styles have their own uses and practicality and it is all up to the kitchen dweller which is found most convenient of all.

Lastly, do not forget to match it with the sink color. There are different finishes and having the perfect one may just top off your kitchen style. Chrome, polished brass, brushed Nickel, Weathered Copper, French Bronze, Pewter, White, Almond and Platinum are only some of the finish options. Consideration would depend on your current kitchen theme and color palette your kitchen has.

I never had a sink with one before but we bought a new house and it has one. I want to know what it is called and what the function is. It’s something with a cylindrical cap about 3″-4″ tall that sits atop the sink. I know they’re relatively common.
Here is a picture I found doing an image search. It’s the thing to the left of the faucet.

I guess it could be a sprayer hook up but that would be kind of dumb since our faucet itself has an extendable sprayer on the end.
I bet Nick and Peep are right. I wonder how if works.

Give Your Kitchen A Makeover

suzyq asked:


I am in the market for a new kitchen sink. I saw one at Home Depot today that was not solid granite..it had resins mixed in. Would this be a durable sink? Does anyone have one and can give me any tips on the care of it? It was solid black…very pretty. This sink would be top mounted on a granite looking laminate countertop. Thanks for any information anyone could share with me.

Tom G asked:


Out of the blue, my main bathroom that guests primarily use starting having an earthy smell coming from the sink drain. It’s on the main floor, and there are no floors above it (in other words, not another sink above it). I examined the plumbing under the sink, and everything seems to be in working order, no leaks, trap is in good shape, etc.

What should I do here?
