Fixture Installation
in Austin, TX
Faucets, toilets, showers, sinks, garbage disposals — installed by a licensed Austin plumber who does it right the first time. No DIY surprises. No callbacks. Just clean, code-compliant work.
A $200 Faucet Can Become a $2,000 Problem.
Austin's renovation boom has a lot of homeowners and investors trying to save money on fixture installs. The savings look fine until a slow leak develops behind the cabinet, under the toilet, or inside the wall — and you're looking at flooring replacement, subfloor rot, or mold remediation.
Texas code requires a licensed plumber for supply and drain connections. There's a reason for that.
- Improperly seated toilet wax rings cause slow slab leaks — often undetected for months
- Loose compression fittings on supply lines fail suddenly, flooding cabinets and floors
- Missing or wrong-size shutoff valves create problems at the next repair or resale inspection
- Garbage disposals wired or plumbed incorrectly can void appliance warranties
- Unpermitted work surfaces at closing — buyers' inspectors flag it and deals stall
Every Fixture, Done Right.
Whether it's a single faucet swap or a full bathroom upgrade, SolidStreams handles the full scope — supply connections, drain work, shutoff valves, and code-compliant rough-in.
Faucets & Sinks
Most RequestedKitchen and bathroom faucet replacements, undermount and drop-in sink installs, and supply line connections. We work with fixtures from any manufacturer — or you can supply your own.
- Kitchen faucet and sprayer installs
- Bathroom vanity faucets and undermount sinks
- Shutoff valve replacement and new supply lines
Toilets
High DemandFull toilet replacements, wax ring reseats, and flange repair. Austin's older homes often have outdated 3.5-gallon toilets — upgrading to a 1.28 GPF model pays back in lower water bills.
- Complete toilet replacement and wax ring seal
- Flange inspection and repair if needed
- WaterSense-certified low-flow options available
Showers & Tubs
Shower valve replacement, tub spout and drain installs, and showerhead upgrades. Ideal for remodels in Austin's 1970s and 1990s homes where original valves are worn or mixing valves need replacement.
- Shower valve and trim kit installation
- Tub drain and overflow assembly
- Handheld and rain showerhead upgrades
Garbage Disposals
New disposal installs and replacements, including drain connection and dishwasher knockout. Austin's hard water accelerates corrosion inside older disposals — most homeowners replace them every 8 to 12 years.
- New disposal install or like-for-like swap
- P-trap and drain reconnection
- Dishwasher drain knockout if needed
Outdoor Hose Bibs
Replacement and new installation of outdoor hose bibs and frost-free sillcocks. Austin's occasional hard freezes catch homeowners off-guard — frost-free bibs protect supply lines when temps drop below freezing.
- Frost-free sillcock installation
- Backflow prevention where required
- New outdoor water access point addition
Supply Lines & Shutoff Valves
Angle stops, straight stops, and supply line replacements throughout the home. Braided stainless lines and quality quarter-turn shutoffs — not the plastic valves that fail without warning.
- Angle stop and supply line replacement
- Quarter-turn ball valve upgrades
- Pre-install shutoff inspection included

SolidStreams is licensed under Texas RMP #46840. Every fixture we install is code-compliant — no corners cut, no unpermitted work, nothing that will come up at your next home inspection.
We quote the job, not the clock. You know what you're paying before we start — and that price doesn't change unless the scope changes. No sticker shock when the invoice arrives.
From Hyde Park bungalows to new builds in Pflugerville, we've worked across Austin's housing stock. Older homes come with rough-in quirks — we know how to handle what we find.
If something isn't right after we leave, we come back and fix it. No runaround, no charge for a callback on our own workmanship. That's what working with a single-owner operation gets you.
Clean Installs. Every Time.
We work in Austin homes every week — older bungalows, new builds, rental properties, and everything in between. The standard doesn't change.
Original 1980s Fixtures, Corroded Lines
Austin hard water had corroded the supply valves and left mineral deposits inside the faucet aerator. The shutoff valves hadn't moved in 20 years and were stuck. A common finding in East Austin and Travis Heights homes.
New Faucet, Valves, and Supply Lines
New kitchen faucet with braided stainless supply lines and quarter-turn shutoff valves. Full connection check and pressure test before we left. Homeowner supplied the faucet — we handled everything else.
