What it is doing

 

Faucet problemsand the usual cause.

Most faucet problems fall into four causes, and only some of them need a new faucet.

  • Drips from the spout→Usually a worn cartridge or seals. A repair is often cheaper than a new faucet
  • Leaks under the sink→Often a supply line or connection. Check it soon, because it rots the cabinet floor
  • Low flow at one faucet→Usually a clogged aerator or cartridge, common with hard water
  • Loose or wobbly→The mounting nut has worked loose. Cheaper faucets do this more often

Repair or replace

 

When a repairis the right call.

A repair makes sense when the faucet is a decent quality model and the problem is one worn part.

  • Repair it→A good-quality faucet with a worn cartridge or seal
  • Replace it→A low-cost faucet that is cracked, corroded or loose again after tightening
  • Replace it→Parts are no longer available for that faucet

If replacing is the better answer, installing a faucet you supply is $225 plus HST, and a Moen Chateau kitchen faucet supplied and installed is $420 plus HST. See faucet and sink installation.

Questions we get asked

Faucet repair FAQ

How much does faucet repair cost?

Most leaking or dripping faucet repairs are $225 to $350 plus HST, depending on the part.

Is it cheaper to repair or replace a faucet?

On a good-quality faucet, a repair is usually cheaper, because most drips are one worn cartridge or seal. On a low-cost faucet that is cracked or keeps loosening, replacing it is usually better value.

Why is my faucet dripping?

A steady drip from the spout is usually a worn cartridge or worn seals inside the faucet.

Why is the water flow low at one faucet?

Usually a clogged aerator or cartridge, which is common with hard water. Unscrew the aerator at the tip of the spout and rinse it first.

Do you repair bathroom faucets too?

Yes. We repair kitchen and bathroom faucets across Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge and the surrounding area.
