Tip of the Day



Choosing a New Faucet

New faucets spruce up a kitchen or bath and cost a lot less than new counters and cabinets. Here's how to create a new look in those rooms where you bathe and cook. Selecting a fixture from today's wide array can be a time-consuming and confusing experience because there are now so many new models, styles and features to choose from. But, before heading out to make a purchase, put some thought into what you do and don't want. Consider the look and style, and things like double faucet handles or sleek single-lever controls. Consumer home-improvement literature and kitchen and bath magazines are a good place to start. Do you want a pullout spray head? What about overall design? Traditional or modern? And what type of finish? And color? Then there's washer vs. washerless. You can either take your time deciding at home or wing it on your feet at a store under pressure. And that's the On The House tip for today.
