If you’ve ever priced out a kitchen remodel and thought, “How is a faucet this expensive — does it come with a butler?” — you’re not alone.
Between rising material costs and clients who’ve learned to Google part numbers, margins can disappear faster than a roll of painter’s tape on install day.
That’s where it pays — literally — to know your options.
At PROHS, we stock everything from national name brands to our own PROHS private-label line and exclusive emerging brands like Q and Goode & Abel. Because in the real world, every project has its own priorities: some call for prestige, others for performance and savings.
💡 The Smarter Balance
There are plenty of jobs where the client requests a specific national brand — or the budget and design scope naturally point that way. Those fixtures absolutely have their place.
But when the goal is to stay competitive on bids or protect profit on mid-range projects, that’s where private-label and emerging brands shine.
Our PROHS, Q, and Goode & Abel lines offer comparable quality, warranties, and finishes — often produced in the same factories as major national brands — just without the additional markup tied to large-scale marketing and distribution.
It’s not about cutting corners. It’s about buying smarter for the job at hand.
🏷️ What’s in the PROHS Portfolio
With this mix, PROHS gives contractors and designers a full-suite toolkit — from premium national lines to high-value alternatives — all under one roof.
📊 The Math That Makes It Matter
When the scope calls for flexibility, switching select fixtures to PROHS, Q, or Goode & Abel can trim 35–50% off fixture costs — without sacrificing quality or warranty.
🔧 Case in Point: The Tampa Townhome Build
A local builder recently mixed PROHS and Q products across a 12-unit project. The result: nearly $6,800 in fixture savings and faster installs, all while maintaining design consistency and client satisfaction.
It’s not about replacing national brands — it’s about knowing when to use each smartly.
🧱 Built to Work, Not Just Look Good
These aren’t bargain-bin imports. PROHS, Q, and Goode & Abel fixtures use solid brass, ceramic cartridges, and thick-gauge stainless steel. Finishes range from polished chrome to matte black, brushed gold, and two-tone options — all tested for long-term durability.
Every product is backed by robust warranty coverage and local support right here at PROHS.
💬 The Takeaway
In today’s market, flexibility is the real competitive edge.
When the project calls for prestige, PROHS has the national names your clients trust. When it calls for smart savings, our private-label and emerging brands deliver quality that rivals them — often from the same production lines — at a fraction of the cost.
Whatever the spec, PROHS helps you build smarter.
