Common Kitchen Faucet Problems We Fix

Kitchen faucets are used all day, every day and parts eventually wear out. Here are the most common faucet issues
our plumbers repair:

• Dripping faucet: constant dripping even when the handle is off
• Leaks under the sink: wet cabinets, pooling water, damaged shutoffs or supply lines
• Loose handles: wobble, stiffness, grinding, or handles that spin
• Low water pressure: clogged aerator, cartridge issues, or supply restrictions
• Sprayer problems: leaking pull-down hose, broken sprayer head, weak spray
• Base leaks: water pooling around the faucet mounting area
• Temperature issues: hot/cold mixing problems, slow response, inconsistent temperature

If water is actively leaking under the sink, shut off the valves and call immediately:
705-627-5725.

Why Kitchen Faucets Leak (Real Causes)

1) Worn Cartridge / Valve

Many kitchen faucets use an internal cartridge (or valve assembly) to control flow and temperature. When the
cartridge wears out, you may get dripping, poor shutoff, weak flow, or inconsistent temperature.

2) Worn Washers, Seals, or O-Rings

O-rings and seals wear down from daily use and friction. This often causes leaks near the handle or around the base.

3) Loose Fittings or Supply Line Failure

Under-sink leaks can come from loose fittings, aging braided supply lines, or corroded shutoff valves.
Left untreated, these leaks often damage cabinets and flooring.

4) Valve Seat Corrosion or Mineral Buildup

Sediment and mineral deposits can corrode internal components over time. This can cause dripping, reduced water
pressure, and premature wear.

Kitchen Faucet Replacement & New Faucet Installation

Sometimes replacement is the smarter long-term move — especially if the faucet is older, heavily corroded,
or has multiple leak points. We install and replace most faucet types, including modern pull-down sprayers.

Our faucet replacement service includes:

• Remove old faucet and clean the mounting surface
• Install new faucet (customer-supplied or supplied by us)
• Reconnect supply lines and sprayer connections properly
• Test for leaks, water pressure, and correct operation
• Recommend shutoff valve upgrades if needed

What To Do Right Now If Your Faucet Is Leaking

1. Find the leak source: spout, handle, base, or under-sink connection.
2. Contain water: towels, bucket, or absorbent cloth to protect cabinets/flooring.
3. Turn off the shutoff valves under the sink (turn clockwise).
4. If valves won’t close or leak, turn off the main water supply and call a plumber.

If you have active leaking or flooding risk, call our emergency plumbing team:

Kitchen Faucet Repair FAQs

Is a leaking kitchen faucet an emergency?

If water is leaking under the sink, soaking cabinets, or the shutoff valves won’t close, it can become urgent fast.
Shut off the water and call a licensed plumber.

Why does my faucet drip even when it’s off?

Usually it’s a worn cartridge, valve, seal, or internal component that no longer closes fully.

Should I repair or replace my kitchen faucet?

If the faucet is corroded, leaking from multiple areas, or repeatedly failing, replacement is often the most
cost-effective long-term solution.
