Quick answer: A dripping faucet almost always has a worn cartridge, washer, O ring or valve seat inside. Hard water in the Philadelphia area leaves mineral deposits that wear these parts faster. Replacing the cartridge or seals usually stops the drip. If the faucet body is corroded or parts are no longer available, replacing the faucet is often the better fix.
Faucet and sink repair covers everything from the handle to the trap. Faucets drip when cartridges, washers or seals wear out, and hard water speeds that wear by leaving mineral deposits on moving parts. Under the sink, P traps loosen, slip nuts crack, basket strainers leak and supply lines and stop valves corrode. A slow drip under a kitchen cabinet can rot the base for months before anyone notices. We repair what can be repaired and replace what cannot. Small leaks are worth fixing early. We carry common parts for the major brands.
We also install new faucets, kitchen and bathroom sinks, utility sinks and pot fillers. When we replace a faucet, we replace the supply lines and, if they are old or seized, the shutoff valves, so the new fixture is not connected to worn out parts. If the sink drains slowly, we clear the line too. Kitchen sink clogs from grease and food are among the most common drain calls we get, and fixing the faucet while leaving a slow drain behind does not solve the whole problem. We handle both at once.

How it works
Our Faucet and Sink Repair Process
Find the Leak
We check the faucet body, cartridge, supply lines, shutoffs, basket strainer, trap and drain connections to find exactly where water is escaping. Many under sink leaks only show when the drain is full, so we test with water. This keeps the fix targeted.
Repair or Replace
We tell you whether a cartridge, seal or washer will fix it or whether the faucet is worn out. You get an upfront quote for repair and for replacement with a faucet you choose before work starts. No surprises. Ever.
Do the Work
We repair the faucet or install the new one, replace supply lines and stop valves as needed, rebuild the trap and reseal the strainer. If the drain is slow, we clear it with a hand auger or drain machine. Everything is tightened and sealed.
Test and Clean Up
We run water hot and cold, fill and drain the sink and check every connection for leaks. We clean the cabinet and counter, remove the old parts and show you the shutoffs for future repairs. You leave with dry cabinets.

Faucet and Sink Problems in Philadelphia Homes
Hard water across the Philadelphia region leaves mineral scale inside faucets, aerators and cartridges. Over time that scale wears seals, clogs aerators and makes handles stiff. Homeowners often notice weak flow at the kitchen faucet first. Cleaning or replacing the aerator helps, but worn cartridges need replacement. In older homes, the shutoff valves under the sink may not have been turned in decades and can seize or leak when finally closed, so we come ready to replace them. Pedestal sinks in old bathrooms often have original supply pipe in the wall behind them, which we check too. We bring replacement valves just in case.
Rowhome kitchens in back additions often have sinks on exterior walls, where supply lines can freeze in hard cold snaps and drains can be long, flat runs back to the stack. Those flat runs collect grease, which is why kitchen sink clogs are so common in South Philly and other older neighborhoods. When we work on a kitchen sink, we look at the drain as well as the faucet. We pay attention to slow drains as well as drips, and we can clear the line on the same visit when the sink drains slowly.
Pricing
What Affects the Cost of Faucet and Sink Repair
Faucet and sink repair cost depends on whether the faucet can be repaired with a cartridge or seal or needs replacing, the faucet you choose, and the condition of the shutoffs and supply lines. Seized valves, corroded traps or a damaged sink add parts. Installing a new sink involves more than a faucet swap. If the drain is clogged, clearing it is part of the job. We look at the setup and give you an upfront quote before any work starts.

FAQ
Faucet and Sink Repair Questions, Answered
A dripping faucet almost always has a worn cartridge, washer, O ring or valve seat inside. Hard water in the Philadelphia area leaves mineral deposits that wear these parts faster. Replacing the cartridge or seals usually stops the drip. If the faucet body is corroded or parts are no longer available, replacing the faucet is often the better fix.
Weak flow at one faucet usually means a clogged aerator or a worn cartridge, often from hard water scale. Unscrew the aerator at the tip of the spout and rinse it. If flow is weak at several fixtures, the cause may be old galvanized pipe, a partly closed shutoff or a pressure valve problem. We check the faucet first, then the supply.
Common sources are the supply lines, the shutoff valves, the faucet base, the pop up drain assembly and the P trap slip nuts. Some leak only when water sits in the basin, so the drain connection is easy to miss. We test each with water running and draining to find the exact spot, then repair or replace that part.
Yes. We install faucets customers buy, as long as the faucet fits the sink holes and the counter. We check the shutoffs and supply lines, replace them if they are worn, and connect everything cleanly. We give you an upfront quote for the installation before we start, and we test for leaks before we leave.
If the valves are old, corroded or hard to turn, yes. Many older Philadelphia homes have shutoffs that have not been touched in decades, and they often leak or fail to close fully once they are moved. Replacing them while the faucet is off is quick, and it means you will have working shutoffs the next time you need them.
