From kitchen to bathroom to tub & shower, each faucet serves a different purpose. Kitchen faucets are designed for functionality and style, bathroom faucets focus on compact elegance, and tub & shower faucets combine durability with comfort-driven design.

Faucets are available in single-handle, double-handle, pull-down, wall-mounted, and more. Popular finishes include chrome, brushed nickel, matte black, and gold tones — each offering a unique look and level of maintenance.

Costs can vary depending on the faucet type, finish, and added features (like pull-down sprayers or thermostatic shower controls). Premium materials and advanced functions typically increase value and long-term durability.

Consider the space where the faucet will be installed, your design style, and your daily use. Kitchen faucets often benefit from pull-down or high-arc spouts, while bathroom faucets may require a compact single-hole setup. For showers, balance function with comfort by choosing adjustable or multi-spray options.

To extend the life and beauty of your faucet, clean regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers that can damage the finish.
