🛁 Is Your Bathroom Trying to Tell You Something?

How Often Should You Replace Your Bathroom Fittings?

Just like we go for regular health check-ups to catch issues early and stay healthy, our bathrooms need the same kind of attention. After all, they’re used daily — but when was the last time you gave your fittings a "wellness exam"?

From leaky faucets to rusty pipes, your bathroom might be silently signalling that it needs an upgrade. Here's how often different fittings should ideally be replaced — and what signs to watch out for.

🚿 1. Faucets & Taps (Every 7–10 years)

They’re the pulse points of your bathroom. If you notice inconsistent water flow, mineral build-up, or leaks, your faucets might be ‘unwell’.

🚽 2. Toilets (Every 10–15 years)

Toilets are like the bones — built to last, but not invincible. Cracks, flushing issues, or frequent repairs are early symptoms. Newer models are also more water-efficient!

🚰 3. Showerheads (Every 5–8 years)

If your morning shower isn’t as energizing as it used to be, blame the showerhead. Hard water clogs, dull spray, or rust mean it’s time for a change.

🔧 4. Plumbing (Every 10–20 years)

Old pipes can leak silently. Corrosion, poor water pressure, or water stains are red flags. Think of plumbing as your bathroom’s nervous system — essential and often overlooked.

🪞 5. Accessories (Every 5–7 years)

Towel rods, soap holders, mirrors — these may seem superficial but affect your bathroom’s look and hygiene. If they’re rusting or shaky, don’t ignore them.

🚿 Give Your Bathroom a Routine Checkup

Just like health issues, bathroom problems are easier (and cheaper!) to fix when caught early. Whether it’s for hygiene, water savings, or style — staying updated is worth it.

When in Doubt, Look Out for:

• Persistent leaks

• Rust or corrosion

• Low water pressure

• Discoloured or worn-out finishes

• Old styles that don’t spark joy

  
  

🛠️ Why Replacing Fittings Matters:

✔️ Improves hygiene✔️ Saves water & bills✔️ Boosts aesthetic appeal✔️ Increases home value✔️ Brings peace of mind

We recommend checking your fittings every few years — and replacing what doesn’t serve you anymore. Because wellness begins at home.
