How to Tell If Your Faucet Needs Repair?

Faucets rarely fail all at once, so small signs matter.

A Drip That Will Not Stop

A steady drip is the classic sign of a worn part. It is usually one washer, cartridge, or seal. Tell us how often it drips.

A Handle That Feels Stiff or Loose

A handle that fights you or wobbles is worth a look. Tell us when it changed.

Water Showing Up Under the Sink

Water under the sink should not be ignored. Tell us where it appears and when.

A drain that is slow or gurgling belongs to drain cleaning. A damp cabinet may be a sink repair job. Tell us what you notice, and we will point you to the right one.

Repair It or Replace It? We Tell You The Truth

Both paths are honest options, so we show you each one.

When a Worn Part Is the Whole Story

Often the faucet itself is fine. A new washer, cartridge, or seal can be all the job needs.

When a New Faucet Makes More Sense

Sometimes repair stops making sense, or you want a different faucet. Then we install the new one.

Hearing Both Options Before We Begin

You hear the repair option and the replacement option, with the cost of each. The choice stays yours.

How We Repair or Install Your Faucet

Here is how the work goes, from the first look to the last check.

Starting With What You Have Seen

We start with the drip, the handle, or the water you spotted. Those clues point us toward the cause.

Repairing the Faucet or Installing a New One

We replace the worn part, or we install the new faucet you chose. If the job changes, we tell you right away.

Finding the Worn Washer, Cartridge, or Seal

Our plumbers work out which part has worn before replacing anything. That keeps a repair small and aimed.

Checking for Drips Before We Leave

We run the water and check for drips before we leave. If something shows up, we deal with it then.

What a Faucet Repair Can Help You Avoid

A faucet repair may help you:

Avoid the annoyance of constant dripping
Stop struggling with a stiff or hard-to-turn handle
Prevent moisture from building up under the sink
Learn what caused the issue
Avoid replacing a faucet that may still have life left in it

Cost Explained Before Any Faucet Work

We Repair First When Repair Is Enough

A new faucet is not always the answer. If a worn part is the only issue, we say so and keep the job small.
