This kitchen plumbing service was completed in Tampa, Florida in January 2026 following the installation of a brand-new countertop. After countertop replacements, plumbing connections often require adjustments to ensure everything aligns properly and functions as intended.
The scope of work included installing a customer-supplied Moen kitchen faucet along with new shut-off valves for improved reliability and control. Proper faucet installation helps maintain consistent water pressure while reducing the risk of leaks inside the cabinet.
Beneath the sink, the drain system was rebuilt using a new white plastic P-trap. Correct slope and secure slip-joint connections are essential for efficient drainage and for preventing sewer gases from entering the home.
A new 1/2 HP InSinkErator garbage disposal was also installed and connected to the updated drain assembly. Final testing confirmed smooth operation, proper drainage, and strong faucet performance at the kitchen sink.
Post-Countertop Plumbing Check
After the new countertop was installed, I staged the customer-supplied Moen faucet and components at the sink area. This step allows me to confirm the faucet parts are complete and ready before beginning installation and reconnecting the kitchen plumbing.
