Your faucets are connected to the building’s main water lines. When these faucets break or clog up, you might not be able to get the water you need. Worse yet, the water is contaminated or leaking somewhere else.
Leaky faucets are one of the most common problems you can come across with your home plumbing. Whether you’re dealing with a dripping faucet or a wasteful stream of water, leaks can increase your monthly water bill. Depending on how much water is leaking, it can even lead to water damage!
Leaky faucet repair is usually fast and inexpensive. One of our plumbers will find the part causing the leak before either repairing or replacing it for proper water flow.
Your faucets provide both hot and cold water. Choosing the temperature is generally dependent on the faucet’s design, with models featuring either one or two handles. Fixing a broken handle can sometimes resolve the issue.
But when you’re dealing with a total lack of hot water, the issue might be more complicated. This could be a sign your water heater is damaged; in which case a professional plumber should be contacted.
Rather than a leak, a broken faucet decreases water pressure and may even prevent the flow of water entirely. Not only is this frustrating, but the additional pressure can result in other problems deeper in your plumbing system.
The specifics on how your plumber will fix the issue requires knowing what type of faucet you’re using. Sometimes taking care of the issue is as simple as cleaning the affected component. Other issues can be traced to the seal that separates your faucet from the water supply.
Remember that this isn’t necessarily a common occurrence. So when your faucet isn’t the culprit, your plumber will look for other issues like corroded pipes and clogs (as these also cause the water pressure to fall). Even partially closed valves will drop the water pressure, resulting in weak flow.

Effective repairs start with knowing the type of faucet you use. This doesn’t mean whether it’s a kitchen faucet or a bathroom faucet, but what internal components are in place to deliver potable water. Your plumber will have sufficient experience with different faucet types so they can recognize yours quickly, beginning repairs sooner.
Compression Faucet: This design is the oldest type of faucet that can still be commonly found. It uses a rubber washer and two handles to provide adequate water of the correct temperature.
Cartridge Faucet: Available in both one- and two-handle designs. A single-lever design adjusts water flow by raising and lowering the valve inside the handle.
Ball Faucet: The most common type of single-lever faucet. As the lever is moved, a plastic or metal ball moves within the faucet, allowing water to flow. Small chambers within the ball blend hot and cold water to create the desired temperature.
Ceramic Disk Faucet: Another single-lever design sometimes confused for a ball faucet. The disk works similarly to a cartridge faucet, which is raised or lowered to provide water flow. By comparison, a ball faucet moves in a spherical direction.
As soon as they’re aware of what model of faucet you have, the plumber’s next step is to pinpoint where the problem starts. Most designs are split into two sections, the faucet body and one or two faucet handles. Knowing the type of problem they’re dealing with can make things easier.
Whatever the problem may be, disassembling the faucet is often required for repairs. The average repair kit should offer tools like slip joint pliers or a basin wrench for reaching the internal components.
Sometimes a problem can be fixed by simply reaching the specific component and giving it a thorough cleaning. But if the component is cracked or broken, replacing it is typically best. These small pieces aren’t expensive, so don’t worry about the cost of a new part for the spout, O-ring or any washers.
This can be slightly more complex for special faucets, such as an outdoor garden hose.
