Fixture Installation for Wells Homeowners

Garbage Disposals
Aces Highlands handles fixture installation for homeowners throughout Wells. We work out of 508 Riverside St Unit 1 in Portland, a short drive into York County, so response times stay quick and every job benefits from knowing the local housing stock and code requirements.
Aces Highlands installs plumbing fixtures with precision and care. From kitchen faucets to bathroom toilets, we make sure everything is properly connected, tested, and leak-free.
We install all types of residential plumbing fixtures including kitchen and bathroom faucets, sinks, toilets, garbage disposals, shower valves, and tub fillers. We work with fixtures you have purchased or can help you select the right option.
Proper fixture installation requires attention to detail — correct supply line sizing, secure mounting, proper drain connections, and thorough leak testing. We take the time to do it right so you do not have problems down the road.
Upgrading your fixtures can improve water efficiency, reduce your water bills, and update the look of your kitchen or bathroom. Pair new fixtures with updated lighting to complete your kitchen or bathroom refresh. We handle the plumbing side so you can enjoy the results.

- Licensed, insured, and background-checked — neighbors in Wells leave us reviews on Google
Wells Homes and What They Need
Wells has one of the newest housing stocks among the York County coastal towns Aces serves, with a median build year of 1989 and only about 8 percent of homes predating 1940. That postwar-and-later coastal development boom means most of the systems we work on here are second- or third-generation, not original construction. Heat pump repair on those newer systems is a common call.
Water Supply and Drains in Wells
Public water in Wells comes from the Kennebunk, Kennebunkport & Wells Water District, which serves about 25 miles of York County coastline, while sewer service is handled separately by the Wells Sanitary District at its own treatment facility. Because water and sewer run through two different utilities here, a sewer line repair sometimes means confirming which district's line is actually involved.
Getting to Know Wells
Wells was founded in 1643 and incorporated on July 5, 1653, making it the third town incorporated in Maine. The town is drained by the Webhannet River and is home to both the Wells National Estuarine Research Reserve at Laudholm Farm and the Rachel Carson National Wildlife Refuge.
Of the town's 73.6 square miles, more than 16 are water, reflecting Wells' extensive beach and marsh frontage across four distinct beach neighborhoods: Wells Beach, Moody Beach, Drakes Island Beach, and East Shore Beach.
Local & Independent — Not a Franchise
We are an independent, Portland-based company, not a franchise chain routing your Wells job to a call center. Nobody on our crew works on commission, so there is no incentive to sell you more than the job needs. Getting invited back is the only metric that matters here.

Fixture Installation: Faucets, Toilets & What Fails First
Fixture replacement is usually the most visible plumbing work in a home, and also where a rushed installation shows up fastest — a faucet that wiggles, a toilet that rocks, a drain that was never quite sealed right.

Codes & Permits for Fixture Installation in Wells
In Wells, plumbing permits come from the Local Plumbing Inspector at the Wells Code Enforcement Office (208 Sanford Road, Wells, ME 04090, 207-646-5187). With 11,713 residents, Wells is required to enforce the Maine Uniform Building and Energy Code (MUBEC). A separate water utility (KKW) and sanitary/sewer district (Wells Sanitary District) serve the town rather than one combined utility.
- Plumbing repairs and fixture work are permitted and enforced locally by each municipality's Local Plumbing Inspector, appointed under state law. mainelegislature.org
- Maine's plumbing installation standard is the 2021 Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC), adopted by the Plumbers' Examining Board effective January 1, 2022. maine.gov
- Plumbing work in Maine is performed by state-licensed Master or Journeyman plumbers (with licensed apprentices working under them), as established and examined by the Plumbers' Examining Board. maine.gov
- Every Maine municipality must annually appoint at least one Local Plumbing Inspector (LPI), who does not have to live in that town, to issue plumbing permits and enforce the state's plumbing rules and Subsurface Wastewater Disposal (septic) rules locally. mainelegislature.org
How Aces Highlands Handles Fixture Installation in Wells
- With a median year built of 1989 and 8% of homes older than 1940, Wells still has plenty of galvanized and early-copper supply lines behind the walls, which changes how we approach a fixture installation.
- Kennebunk, Kennebunkport & Wells Water District (KKW) supplies most of Wells; we handle everything downstream of that meter, fixture by fixture.
- Anything that needs a permit gets one through the Wells Code Enforcement Office, built to the 2021 Uniform Plumbing Code Maine adopted in 2022.

This team was called in by my property management company for where I rent. Elijah and his team were professional, clear speaking. Good communicators gave me the real deal. Didn't give any runaround. I trust them and want to use them for my own projects.

I've had three HVAC issues over the past two years. Each time I call, Elija or the office picks up the phone, and my problem is fixed in 24 hrs. Their solutions always feel correct and honest. I cannot recommend them more.

Elijah and Highlands Heating & AC were super helpful! Boiler failed over the weekend and Elijah was very responsive and helpful, getting us up and running right away. I would recommend him at HH&AC highly!
Fixture Installation FAQs
Can I supply my own faucet or toilet for you to install?
Absolutely. We install customer-supplied fixtures every week, and we are glad to advise on brands and configurations before you buy so the fixture fits your sink or rough-in. We can also supply the fixture if you prefer one-stop convenience.
How long does fixture installation take?
A straightforward faucet or toilet replacement usually takes one to two hours. Garbage disposals, shower valves, and installations where old shutoff valves or corroded connections need replacement can take longer. We give you a realistic time estimate before we start.
Should my old shutoff valves be replaced during a fixture swap?
Often, yes. Shutoff valves that have not been turned in years frequently seize or weep once disturbed. Replacing a worn shutoff during a fixture installation costs little while everything is already apart — and it means you can actually shut water off in an emergency.
Do new fixtures really lower my water bill?
They can. WaterSense-labeled faucets and toilets use 20-60% less water than older models — a pre-1994 toilet can use 3.5 to 7 gallons per flush versus 1.28 for a modern one. For a busy household, that difference shows up on the bill.
Will you try to upsell me on other plumbing work while you are here?
No. Aces Highlands is a local Portland company, not a franchise — nobody here works on commission. If we happen to spot a genuine safety or leak issue while working, we will point it out and let you decide. Otherwise we do the job you called us for.
