Homeowners ask our team at CountBricks every day, “What will it really cost to install a new shower faucet?” The answer is more than a single number. Labor rates, fixture style, wall conditions, and regional pricing all influence your final invoice. In this guide we explain every line item so you can budget with total confidence—then show you how CountBricks automates the math with real-time voice estimating.
• Basic replacement of a single-handle valve and trim: $280 – $425
• Mid-grade two-handle faucet with minor wall repair: $450 – $650
• High-end thermostatic system with diverter, tile patching, and new supply lines: $900 – $1,600
These numbers reflect current residential construction averages captured inside the CountBricks materials database. Prices automatically adjust to your ZIP code when you run an on-site voice estimate through the CountBricks app.
Fixture Quality
• Economy chrome valves have lower upfront cost but shorter warranties
• Solid-brass, pressure-balanced bodies raise material spend 25-40%
Wall Access
• Open framing in a remodel speeds installation
• Finished tile or stone adds demolition and patch labor
Plumbing Complexity
• Switching from two-handle to single-handle requires new valve rough-in
• Adding a diverter for hand showers or body sprays increases piping time by 45-60 minutes
Local Codes & Permits
• Some municipalities demand pressure-balance or thermostatic valves
• Permit fees in Clark County average $55 – $95 and must be added to the estimate
