Know the Signs

When Your Faucet Needs Repair or Replacement

Here's when to call:

A Steady Drip

A worn cartridge, washer or seal. On a good faucet, it's a quick repair.

Water Under the Sink

A loose supply line, a leaking shutoff valve or a failing drain connection.

Weak Flow at One Tap

A clogged aerator or cartridge. If every faucet is weak, it may be the pipes.

Handles That Stick or Spin

Worn parts inside the valve. Old faucets may need replacing if parts aren't made anymore.

Kitchen Faucets

Kitchen Faucet Repair and Installation

We fix leaking, dripping and stiff kitchen faucets and install new ones, including pull-down sprayers, touchless models and filtered-water taps. In an Arlington Heights kitchen that hasn't been updated since the 1970s or 1980s, the faucet is often the first upgrade.

When we install a new faucet, we check the shutoff valves and supply lines under the sink. Old multi-turn valves often won't close fully or start dripping once they're moved. We replace them while the sink is already open, so you're not calling us back for a leak a week later.

Kitchen Plumbing Services

Beyond the faucet, we handle sink drains, dishwasher connections, refrigerator and ice maker lines, disposals and gas lines for ranges. For a remodel, we move or add plumbing to fit the new layout, including island sinks.

Local Knowledge

Faucets and Fixtures in Arlington Heights Homes

With most homes built between 1940 and 1989, fixture work here often turns up older plumbing behind the faucet.

Galvanized Supply Lines

In postwar homes, weak flow at a new faucet is often caused by old galvanized pipe in the wall, not the faucet. We'll tell you if that's what we see.

Old Shutoffs Under Every Sink

Valves from the 1950s through the 1980s tend to seize or drip once they're turned. We check them on every fixture job.

Bathrooms Updated in Stages

Many homes have one remodeled bath and one original. We match connections between old and new plumbing so everything seals properly.
