When you decide to switch your faucet with a new one, you can consider many styles. So which is better for you, wall-mount or deck-mount faucets?
Did you know that switching out your current faucet for an upgraded one can transform the feel of your home? So which one is right for you: wall-mount or deck-mount faucets?
Wall-Mount Faucets
A wall-mount faucet resides on the deck of a kitchen counter or bathroom vanity, offering the advantage of being a unique and fun design element. Installing a wall-mounted faucet requires you to reroute the water supply lines inside the wall where the faucet will reside. Therefore, it often requires an experienced plumber. But once you have one, it’ll make for easy cleaning around the countertop and sink area with little to no surrounding water where germs can accumulate.
Another advantage of wall-mount faucets is that the countertop area has more space, allowing for a cleaner look or a more organized layout. Additionally, their unique look allows for visual interest in bathroom and kitchen spaces. Lastly, you can specify the plumbing layout for wall-mount faucets, especially if you plan on building a new sink area.
Deck-Mount Faucets
Deck-mount faucets provide a straightforward design in most homes. They fit many vanities and countertops with their predrilled holes and quick installation. Moreover, because most water supply lines exit through the wall below the sink, they’re easy to install and connect to water lines.
Deck-mount faucets also come with easy maintenance, only needing a daily wipe down with a damp cloth and mild cleaner to maintain shine and vibrancy. However, the design can result in difficulty cleaning around the faucet and handle. These faucets can come in various finishes and styles. For instance, you can find waterfall faucet designs, high spouts, and unique handle designs that allow for endless personalization.
Which Is Best?
So which is best between wall-mount and deck-mount faucets? Depending on your kitchen or bathroom layout, both faucet designs can work.
No matter what you choose, a high-quality faucet can make any kitchen or bathroom look beautiful and eye catching. You can also create a hybrid by mounting one element to the deck and another on the wall. While the installation process requires more steps, it can make your kitchen or bathroom look unique.
