Faucet Repair
A steady drip fixed before it turns into a higher water bill or a stained sink.
A faucet that drips, feels loose at the base, or has started spraying at odd angles is usually a worn cartridge, O-ring, or connection rather than a sign the whole fixture needs replacing. Repair visits start by identifying which part has failed before deciding whether a repair or a full swap makes more sense.
Kitchen and bathroom faucets see daily use and, near the shore, extra mineral and salt exposure that can speed up wear on internal parts. Matching a replacement cartridge to an older faucet brand sometimes takes extra time, which is factored into scheduling when the make and model are known ahead of time.
If a customer already has a new faucet picked out, installation is straightforward in most cases, though older supply lines or shutoff valves may need attention at the same time to get a clean, leak-free result.
