If you're looking for a way to liven up your bathroom, consider installing new faucets. This simple change can give a whole new look to your bathroom. Faucets come in three basic styles. Double-handle faucets, as the name implies, use separate handles for hot and cold water. Some single-handle faucets use levers, which can be easier for children or people with arthritis to use.
Quality is the first thing to consider when purchasing a faucet.
You don't necessarily have to buy the most expensive faucet, but you want to be sure that it will give you trouble-free service for several years. The next factor to think about is size. Larger faucets don't use escutcheon plates, the decorative covers that conceal the inner parts of the faucet. Smaller faucets are available both with and without escutcheon plates. If the sink is damaged or corroded under the existing faucet, you'll probably want to choose a replacement with an escutcheon plate.
