Faucet Installation in the Highland Lakes, Hill Country, and Greater Austin

Installing a new kitchen, bathroom, or specialty faucet? Lantz Home Services installs and replaces faucets across Lago Vista, Horseshoe Bay, Marble Falls, Spicewood, Burnet, and the greater Austin area. We confirm the fixture fits your sink and supply lines, replace tired shutoff valves while we are under there, install it leak-free with a flat upfront price, and clean up before we leave. Same-day appointments are often available. Call (512) 710-1032.

Why Homeowners Trust Lantz Home Services

Lantz Home Services has served the Highland Lakes and Hill Country for more than 50 years as a family-owned plumbing, HVAC, and electrical company. Faucet installation looks simple, but doing it so it never leaks, never loosens, and works with older regional plumbing is where experience shows.

Our lead plumbing technician, Mark, brings 44 years of field experience to every install. He has set faucets in brand-new lakeside builds and in homes whose original plumbing predates the fixtures by decades, so he knows when a modern faucet will drop right in and when the supply lines, valves, or sink need adapting first. That judgment is the difference between a clean one-visit job and a callback.

Built for Highland Lakes and Austin Plumbing

Installing a faucet here is not a one-size-fits-all job, and the reasons are local:

Hard water and mineral buildup. The Highland Lakes and much of the Austin metro sit on limestone, and local water frequently runs well above 10 grains per gallon. That hardness settles into faucet cartridges and aerators and is the leading cause of early drips and stiff handles. We steer you toward ceramic-disc fixtures that resist scale and install aerators and supply connections that are easy to service later.

Older homes and adapted plumbing. Many homes around Burnet, Marble Falls, and the older Austin neighborhoods have plumbing that was never built for today's fixtures. We carry the adaptor fittings and the right connectors to mate a modern faucet to older valves and stub-outs cleanly, instead of forcing a fit that leaks later.

Lake and weekend homes. A lot of Highland Lakes properties sit empty between visits, where a slow drip can run unnoticed for weeks and a seized shutoff turns a small job into a flooded cabinet. We install with reliable shutoffs and check the supply lines so the fixture is safe to leave unattended.

Every Type of Faucet, Installed Right

We install the full range of residential faucets and match the fixture to how the room is actually used:

Kitchen faucets. Single-handle, pull-down and pull-out sprayers, and touchless models. We confirm the new faucet matches your sink's hole count and add or cap holes for a sprayer, soap dispenser, or filtered-water tap as needed.

Bathroom faucets. Single-hole, centerset, and widespread configurations for vanities, plus matching the spread to your sink so the install is clean and tight.

Specialty fixtures. Pot fillers, bar and prep-sink faucets, utility and laundry faucets, and outdoor hose bibbs. These often need extra supply work, which we handle in the same visit.

What a Lantz Faucet Installation Includes

Every installation follows the same dependable process. Your technician shuts off the water, removes and disposes of the old fixture, inspects the shutoff valves and supply lines, replaces any that are aged or corroded, mounts and seals the new faucet, connects the supply lines and any sprayer or dispenser, then runs the water and checks every connection for leaks before cleaning up. You get a quick walkthrough of how the new fixture operates and how to keep the aerator clear of mineral buildup. We pull permits and install to code wherever the job calls for it.

Faucet Installation: FAQ

How much does faucet installation cost in the Austin area?

Most installations run between roughly $150 and $400 in labor, depending on the faucet type, the number of mounting holes, and whether old shutoff valves or corroded supply lines need to be replaced at the same time. Lantz Home Services gives you a flat, upfront price before any work begins, so there are no surprises.

How long does it take to install a faucet?

A standard kitchen or bathroom faucet swap takes about one hour. Jobs that involve replacing old shutoff valves, adapting older Hill Country plumbing to a modern fixture, or adding holes for a sprayer or soap dispenser can take two hours or more. Your technician confirms the timeline before starting.

Can you install a faucet I bought myself?

Yes. We install faucets you purchased and faucets we supply. Before we start we confirm the new fixture matches your sink's hole configuration and your supply lines, and we flag anything missing, such as a deck plate or the right connectors, so the job is done right in one visit.

Should I replace my shutoff valves when installing a new faucet?

Often, yes. The shutoff valves under the sink are frequently older than the faucet itself, and in hard-water areas like the Highland Lakes they seize or weep. Replacing them during a faucet installation is inexpensive and prevents a future leak or a failed shutoff during an emergency.

What kind of faucet lasts longest in hard water?

Faucets with ceramic-disc cartridges hold up best against the hard water common across the Hill Country, since they resist the mineral wear that destroys cheaper rubber-washer designs. We recommend trusted brands with replaceable cartridges so the fixture can be serviced rather than thrown away, and we can discuss whether a water softener would protect it further.

Protect Every Fixture, Not Just the New One

A new faucet is only as reliable as the valves and water behind it. Members of our Ultimate Home Care Plan (UHCP) get regular inspections that catch failing shutoffs, slow drips, and water heater scale before they turn into emergencies, plus priority scheduling and member pricing on work like this. If hard water is shortening the life of your fixtures, our water softener and hard water solutions are worth a look. Already have a faucet that drips or sticks? See our faucet repair page.
