Stop the Drip
Small Faucet Problems Can Cause Big Damage
A dripping, leaking or difficult-to-use faucet can waste water and cause damage around sinks, countertops, cabinets and walls. Faucets contain several small components that wear out over time, including cartridges, washers, O-rings, valve seats and seals. Corroded supply lines, loose connections and mineral buildup can also affect performance.

Professional Service
Expert Faucet Repair in North San Antonio, TX
Faucet problems are not always as simple as tightening a handle or replacing a visible washer. Water dripping from the spout may indicate a worn cartridge or valve seat, while moisture beneath the sink could come from a failing supply line, loose connection or damaged faucet body. Low pressure at one faucet may be a clogged aerator, or buildup farther inside the fixture.
Our plumbers evaluate the faucet and its surrounding plumbing before beginning a repair, explain what we found and recommend the most practical solution, without replacing parts unnecessarily.
What We Fix
Faucet Repair in North San Antonio, TX
Common faucet problems we repair every day.
Dripping Faucet Repair
A faucet that keeps dripping after it's turned off often has a worn washer, cartridge, O-ring or valve seat. We identify the failed component, install the right replacement parts and test that it shuts off completely.
Faucet Leak Repair
Faucets can leak around the handle, spout, base or connections beneath the sink. We trace the water to its actual source and repair loose fittings, damaged seals, failing supply lines and other components.
Low Water Pressure and Flow Problems
Weak or uneven flow from a single faucet may be caused by mineral buildup, a blocked aerator, a damaged cartridge or a restricted supply connection. We inspect each source, clear buildup and repair the parts restricting flow.
Loose or Difficult-to-Operate Faucets
Handles that stick, squeak, spin freely or need too much force may have worn internal parts, and faucets can come loose at the sink or countertop. We repair or secure the affected components so the faucet operates smoothly again.
What to Expect
Faucet Repair for North San Antonio Homes
A faucet repair appointment begins with a close inspection of the fixture and the plumbing connected to it. We operate the faucet, check both the hot and cold sides, and examine the spout, handles, mounting hardware, supply lines and shutoff valves. A drip from the spout commonly points to a valve or cartridge issue, water around a handle to a worn O-ring or seal, and moisture at the base to failed gaskets or loose hardware.
✓ Cartridges, stems, washers, O-rings, valve seats, aerators and supply lines replaced as needed
✓ Mineral buildup cleaned or worn parts replaced
✓ Full test of flow, temperature control and every disturbed connection
FAQ
Faucet Repair in North San Antonio, TX – FAQ
Answers to common questions about faucet repair in North San Antonio homes. Review the questions below or contact PlumbingPro for professional service.
What are the signs that my faucet needs repair?
A faucet may need professional repair if it drips after being turned off, leaks around the handles or base, produces weak or uneven water flow, or has handles that are difficult to move. Other signs include squealing or rattling sounds, water collecting beneath the sink, sudden changes in temperature control, and a faucet that feels loose on the countertop. Even a slow leak should be addressed before it becomes worse. Water can travel along supply lines or the underside of a sink before becoming visible, allowing moisture to damage cabinets and surrounding materials. A plumber can identify the source and determine which faucet components need to be repaired.
Why does my faucet continue dripping after I turn it off?
A faucet relies on internal components to stop the flow of water when the handles are closed. As these parts wear down, water can continue passing through the valve and dripping from the spout. The exact cause depends on whether the faucet uses a compression, cartridge, ceramic-disc, or ball-style mechanism. Mineral deposits can also prevent internal parts from sealing correctly. Replacing the correct component generally resolves the problem, but the faucet must first be identified and disassembled properly. Installing an incorrect part or overtightening the faucet may damage the fixture without stopping the leak.
Can a leaking faucet usually be repaired, or will I need a new one?
Faucets in otherwise good condition can often be repaired by replacing a worn cartridge, washer, O-ring, stem, seal, or supply connection. Repair is usually practical when the faucet body is intact and compatible replacement parts remain available. A new faucet may make more sense if the existing one is cracked, heavily corroded, repeatedly leaking, or no longer supported by the manufacturer. Replacement may also be appropriate when several major parts have failed or the cost of repair approaches the cost of a new fixture. Our plumbers can explain both options so you can make an informed decision.
Why does only one faucet in my home have low water pressure?
When water pressure is normal throughout the rest of the home, a clogged aerator is one of the most common causes of weak flow at a single faucet. Sediment and mineral deposits can collect in the aerator screen and restrict the amount of water leaving the spout. If cleaning or replacing the aerator does not solve the problem, the faucet may have a clogged cartridge, partially closed shutoff valve, kinked supply line, or buildup inside one of its waterways. A plumber can test the hot and cold supplies separately and locate the restriction without disturbing unrelated plumbing.
Why is water leaking beneath my sink when I use the faucet?
Water under a sink does not always mean the faucet is leaking internally. Moisture may be escaping from a loose supply fitting, deteriorated hose, failing shutoff valve, pull-down sprayer connection, or gasket where the faucet mounts to the sink. Water can also run down the fixture and collect in a different location from where the leak began. Because several components are located close together beneath a sink, the source should be confirmed before parts are replaced. We inspect the faucet while it is operating, check each connection, and repair the component actually responsible for the leak.
Can you repair kitchen, bathroom, shower, and outdoor faucets?
PlumbingPro repairs faucets used in kitchens, bathrooms, utility rooms, tubs, showers, and outdoor areas. This includes traditional two-handle faucets, single-handle designs, pull-down and pull-out kitchen faucets, widespread bathroom faucets, wall-mounted fixtures, and many common hose bibbs. The exact repair depends on the faucet's manufacturer, design, age, and condition. Some fixtures require brand-specific cartridges or internal components. We identify the faucet whenever possible, determine whether suitable parts are available, and explain the best repair option before proceeding.
