Common Problems

Dripping Faucet

One drip per second wastes over 3,000 gallons a year. Usually a worn cartridge, washer, or seal -- straightforward DIY fix that stops the waste and the noise.
Leaking Under the Sink

Leak can come from supply lines, shutoff valves, faucet connections, drain, or P-trap. The cabinet hides it, so it often goes unnoticed until damage is underway. Finding the exact source is step one.
Loose Handle or Spout

Handle wobbles, spins, or feels loose? Spout rotates when it should not? Almost always a loose set screw, worn adapter, or deteriorated O-rings. Ten-minute fix, often costs nothing.
Low Water Pressure

Could be a clogged aerator or partially closed valve (five-minute fix), or a failing PRV, corroded pipes, or municipal issue. First step: is it one fixture, one area, or the whole house?
Slow Draining Sink

Almost always a partial clog from hair, soap scum, grease, or food debris in the drain, P-trap, or branch line. Simple DIY fix, under 30 minutes.
Low Shower Water Pressure

Weak shower flow? Could be a clogged head, partially closed valve, worn cartridge, low house pressure, or an aggressive flow restrictor. Fix depends on whether the problem is shower-only or whole-house.
