Signs You Need Faucet Service
Don't ignore these common faucet problems. Addressing them early can prevent bigger issues.
Constant Dripping
A faucet that drips even when turned off tightly is wasting water and indicates a worn-out washer or O-ring.
Rust or Corrosion
Visible rust on the faucet or discolored water can mean the fixture is corroding from the inside and needs replacement.
Squeaking or Stiff Handle
A handle that is difficult to turn or makes noise may have mineral buildup or a damaged internal part.
Low Water Pressure
If only one faucet has low pressure, the cause is often a clogged aerator or a problem within the fixture itself.
When to Call a Professional
While changing a washer can be a DIY task, most other faucet issues, especially persistent drips or problems inside the valve, require a plumber. For any new installation, a professional is recommended to ensure a leak-free seal.

Faucet FAQs
Why does my faucet make a chattering or squealing noise?
This is often caused by a worn-out rubber washer or mineral buildup inside the faucet's components. A simple repair by a professional can usually solve the problem.
Can I replace a two-handle faucet with a single-handle one?
Yes, in most cases. A professional plumber can ensure the new faucet fits your sink's existing hole configuration, sometimes using a deck plate to cover any extra holes for a clean look.
