I've got a bit of a dilemma—my studio has a bathroom faucet installed on the kitchen sink, and it barely extends an inch or two from the edge. This makes washing dishes really tricky! I'm wondering if I can just switch it out for a kitchen faucet myself or if I should call in a plumber. Do I need to replace the hoses too to make this work? Any tips would be super helpful!

Be sure to check how many holes your sink has. For most kitchen faucets, you only need one hole. Bathroom faucets might be different; sometimes they use one or two. If you have extra holes after installing the kitchen faucet, you might want to buy a plug or even a soap dispenser to cover them up.
Yes, you can definitely change it out! If your hoses are old, it might be smart to replace them while you’re at it. This is a pretty straightforward DIY project. Just check out some YouTube videos if you hit any snags—plenty of tutorials out there!
Thanks! I'm planning to hit the hardware store tomorrow to see if I can find a kitchen faucet with compatible hoses. ?
Thanks for the advice! I already removed the old faucet and it’s just one hole, so I think I’m good there. Hoping to find something that fits!
