Faucet Repair

A dripping faucet is one of the most common plumbing issues a homeowner faces. That steady drip is not just a nuisance—it wastes water and can quietly add to your utility bill. When you call us, you are dealing with a leak that may worsen over time, often from a worn washer, O-ring, or cartridge. We handle all types, including kitchen, bathroom, and utility faucets.

We start by shutting off the water supply to the faucet. Then we disassemble the handle and trim to expose the internal mechanism. Depending on the faucet type—compression, cartridge, ball, or ceramic disc—we replace the worn part, such as a rubber washer, neoprene O-ring, or a plastic cartridge. We clean any mineral deposits from the valve seat and reassemble everything. Finally, we turn the water back on and test for leaks, checking both hot and cold flow.

The complexity of a faucet repair varies with the brand, age, and accessibility of the fixture. A single-handle kitchen faucet with a cartridge is often straightforward, while a two-handle compression faucet buried under a vanity can require more time. Hard water buildup can seize parts, making disassembly slower. The cost is influenced by the type of replacement part needed and how much disassembly is required to reach it.

On the day of the repair, we protect the sink basin and countertop with a drop cloth to avoid scratches. We work carefully to avoid damaging the finish. After the repair, we wipe down the area and remove any debris. You do not need to do anything beforehand except clear the area under the sink. After we leave, the faucet should operate smoothly with no drips.
