Signs You Need Faucet Repair & Installation

If you notice any of these warning signs, it may be time to call a licensed plumber.

Dripping Faucet

A faucet that drips when turned off wastes over 3,000 gallons per year and usually needs a cartridge or O-ring replacement.

Low Water Pressure at the Faucet

Reduced flow from a single faucet is often caused by a clogged aerator, seized shut-off valve, or corroded supply line.

Faucet Handle Is Difficult to Turn

Stiff or hard-to-turn handles indicate worn internal components or mineral buildup inside the valve body.

Rust or Mineral Deposits

Visible corrosion, green buildup, or white scale on the faucet body signals aging that will eventually lead to failure.

Water Leaking Under the Sink

Dripping from faucet supply connections or the base of the faucet beneath the counter requires prompt repair.

About Faucet Repair & Installation

A dripping faucet is more than an annoyance — it can waste over 3,000 gallons of water per year (according to the EPA), increase your water bill, and cause staining and mineral deposits in sinks and fixtures. Most faucet drips are caused by worn cartridges, O-rings, valve seats, or ceramic disc assemblies that are straightforward to replace for a licensed plumber.

Faucet installation is one of the most common plumbing services, needed during kitchen or bathroom remodels, fixture upgrades, or when an old faucet has deteriorated beyond reasonable repair. Licensed plumbers install all faucet types — single-handle, double-handle, pull-down kitchen faucets, wall-mounted faucets, pot fillers, and touchless motion-activated models. Proper installation includes securing the faucet, connecting supply lines with flexible braided connectors, applying thread sealant where needed, and checking for leaks under full pressure.

Beyond basic repair and installation, plumbers also address underlying issues that affect faucet performance: low water pressure caused by corroded supply valves or mineral-clogged aerators, incompatible supply line sizes, shut-off valve replacement (a common issue in older homes where gate valves have seized), and addressing water hammer (banging pipes when faucets are turned off quickly).

Whether you need a quick repair to stop a drip or a full faucet replacement as part of a renovation, a licensed plumber ensures the work is done correctly and leak-free.

Faucet Repair & Installation — Frequently Asked Questions

How much does faucet installation cost in New York?
Faucet installation in New York typically costs $150 to $350 for labor, plus the cost of the faucet. This includes removing the old faucet, installing the new unit, connecting supply lines, and testing for leaks. If shut-off valves need replacement (common in older homes), there may be an additional charge.
Why is my faucet dripping?
Most faucet drips are caused by a worn internal component — a cartridge, O-ring, valve seat, or ceramic disc assembly. The specific part depends on your faucet type (ball, cartridge, ceramic disc, or compression). A licensed plumber can identify the faucet type, source the correct replacement part, and stop the drip in a single visit.
Can a plumber fix low water pressure at the faucet?
Yes. Low water pressure at a single faucet is often caused by a clogged aerator (mineral buildup), a partially closed or seized shut-off valve, a kinked supply line, or a corroded supply pipe. If low pressure affects the entire house, the issue may be at the main shut-off, the pressure regulator, or the municipal supply.
How long does it take to replace a faucet?
A standard faucet replacement takes 30 minutes to 1.5 hours depending on access, the condition of existing supply lines and shut-off valves, and whether any modifications are needed. Kitchen faucet replacements typically take slightly longer than bathroom faucets due to under-sink access constraints.
