About
What faucet repair covers and where costs change
Faucet repair starts with the symptom you see, but the failed part may sit inside the handle or below the sink. We check the faucet body, cartridge or valve, aerator, supply stops, and visible connections. Cost changes with access, part type, corrosion, and whether the faucet supports repair. A common cartridge repair differs from work that requires seized fittings, damaged threads, or a full fixture replacement. We explain the parts and labor involved before proceeding. Our view is simple: don't replace a sound faucet when one serviceable part will restore control. Replacement makes more sense when corrosion, cracks, stripped threads, or obsolete parts make repair unreliable.

Questions about faucet leaks, parts, and repair choices
Who repairs a leaking faucet?
PlumbingKentwa.info repairs leaking faucets for residential and commercial properties. We inspect the faucet, handle, internal control, and supply connections to locate the leak. A drip from the spout may need a cartridge, washer, or valve repair. Water beneath the sink may require attention at the base seal or supply fitting, so we trace the source before recommending work.
What changes the cost of repairing a faucet?
The faucet type, failed part, access, corrosion, and repair versus replacement choice change the cost. A worn cartridge may need less work than seized fittings or damaged threads below the sink. The brand and model can also affect part availability. We inspect the fixture, explain the needed work, and provide a quote before proceeding.
Is repairing a faucet cheaper than replacing it?
Repair is often the better fit when the faucet body and connections remain sound. Replacement may make more sense when the fixture has cracks, heavy corrosion, stripped threads, or unavailable parts. A new fixture can also require changes to hole spacing or supply connections. We compare the repair and replacement paths after checking the faucet's condition.
Can a handyman fix a dripping faucet?
A handyman may address a simple drip, but faucet work can involve shutoff valves, supply fittings, and hidden cabinet leaks. PlumbingKentwa.info checks those connections as part of the diagnosis. The repair choice depends on the cartridge, washer, valve seat, threads, and access. A plumbing inspection helps prevent a small fixture leak from masking a larger connection problem.
Why does my faucet have low flow but other fixtures work?
Low flow at one faucet usually points to a local restriction in the aerator, cartridge, supply stop, or faucet passage. We test the fixture and its supply connection to separate those causes. Cleaning an aerator may not solve a blocked cartridge or closed stop valve. We explain the finding and the part that needs service.
What should I do if water leaks under the sink?
Turn the faucet off and close the accessible supply stops if they operate safely. Remove stored items so the wet area stays visible, and place a container beneath the leak. Water may come from the faucet base, supply fitting, or P-trap, and each needs a different repair. We trace the source before replacing a part.

Scenarios
When Customers Call Us About Faucet Repair
1
Drip Reaches the Sink Cabinet
A faucet that drips into the basin can also leak around its base or supply connection. Water in the cabinet can swell wood and reach stored items, so the source matters. Keep the cabinet clear, place a small container under the wet point, and note whether the leak changes when the handle moves. We can then inspect the faucet and explain the repair path.
2
Low Flow From One Fixture
Low flow at one faucet often points to an aerator, cartridge, supply stop, or blocked passage. The rest of the property may still have normal water flow, so the fixture needs its own checks. Avoid forcing the handle or digging into the valve. Share which position reduces flow, and we’ll trace the restriction during the service visit.
3
Rental Access Needs Coordination
A dripping fixture in a rental can affect a tenant, property manager, and the cabinet below the sink. Access to the room and stored items helps us inspect the faucet without delay. Property managers can provide the symptom, fixture location, and any access notes before scheduling. We’ll explain the repair choice so the owner can approve work with the job details in view.
Our Other Services
Drain CleaningSlow sinks and backed-up tubs make ordinary routines frustrating. We clear grease, hair, soap buildup, and other blockages from drain lines, then check the flow to help prevent another backup.
Emergency PlumbingA burst pipe or sewage backup needs quick attention before walls, flooring, and belongings suffer damage. We locate the failure, shut down affected plumbing, and arrange repairs that restore safe water service.
Sewer Line RepairA damaged sewer lateral can cause sewage odors, wet soil, and repeated backups. We repair cracked or separated sections, address root entry, and help restore dependable drainage without replacing sound pipe.
Leak DetectionHidden leaks can waste water while damaging cabinets, drywall, or insulation. We trace signs around supply lines, toilets, and fixtures to identify the source, then explain the repair needed before damage spreads.
Water Heater RepairNo hot water, rusty discharge, or a leaking tank can disrupt showers and laundry. We diagnose heating elements, thermostats, anode rods, and relief valves, then repair the failure when the unit remains serviceable.
Water Heater InstallationA failed or undersized water heater leaves households waiting for hot water. We install tank or tankless units, connect water and fuel lines, and verify temperature, pressure, and safe operation.
