Signs Your Faucet or Fixture Needs Attention
Some fixture problems are obvious, while others develop slowly. Contact a plumber when you notice any of the following:
- A faucet that continues dripping after it is turned off
- Water leaking around the faucet base or handles
- Loose, difficult-to-turn, or damaged handles
- Low or uneven water flow from one fixture
- Rust, mineral buildup, discoloration, or corrosion
- Water collecting beneath a sink or inside a cabinet
- A showerhead or tub spout that leaks continuously
- A shower diverter that no longer works correctly
- An outdoor faucet that leaks or will not shut off
- Unusual noises when a faucet is opened or closed
A small visible drip may indicate a worn cartridge, seal, valve, connection, or another internal component. Repairing the problem early can help prevent damage to cabinets, walls, flooring, and nearby plumbing.
Honest Recommendations
Should You Repair or Replace the Fixture?
Not every leaking faucet needs to be replaced. Many fixture problems can be resolved by replacing a worn cartridge, washer, seal, supply line, valve, or another individual component.
Replacement may be the better choice when the fixture is severely corroded, repeatedly develops problems, uses unavailable parts, or no longer fits the appearance and functionality you want for the room.
Lujan Plumbing will inspect the fixture, explain the available options, and help you make a practical decision based on its condition—not pressure you into unnecessary work.
Common Causes of Leaking Faucets and Fixtures
Worn Cartridges or Washers
Internal parts wear down over time and may allow water to pass through even when the faucet is closed.
Loose Connections
Supply lines, mounting hardware, drain connections, and valves can loosen and begin leaking around or beneath the fixture.
Hard Water Buildup
Mineral deposits can restrict water flow, damage aerators, and interfere with internal fixture components.
Corrosion and Age
Older fixtures may corrode, crack, or become increasingly difficult to repair as their internal components deteriorate.
High Water Pressure
Excessive water pressure can place additional stress on faucets, valves, supply lines, and other plumbing fixtures.
Improper Installation
A fixture that was installed incorrectly may leak, move, drain poorly, or wear out sooner than expected.

Frequently Asked Questions About Faucet and Fixture Repair
Can a dripping faucet usually be repaired?
Yes. Many dripping faucets can be repaired by replacing a worn cartridge, washer, seal, valve, or another internal component. The correct repair depends on the faucet's design, age, and overall condition.
When should I replace a faucet instead of repairing it?
Replacement may make more sense when the faucet is badly corroded, has recurring problems, requires unavailable parts, or is already near the end of its expected service life.
Can I provide my own replacement faucet?
In many cases, yes. Before purchasing a replacement, make sure it is compatible with your sink, mounting holes, water connections, available space, and desired features.
Why is my faucet leaking from the base?
A leak around the base may be caused by worn seals, loose connections, a damaged cartridge, improper installation, or a problem beneath the sink. The fixture should be inspected to identify the exact source.
Why does only one faucet have low water pressure?
Low pressure at a single faucet is often caused by a clogged aerator, mineral buildup, a restricted supply line, a partially closed valve, or a problem inside the faucet.
Can a small faucet leak cause water damage?
Yes. A slow leak beneath a sink or around a fixture may damage cabinetry, flooring, drywall, and nearby materials before it is easily noticed.
Do you repair outdoor faucets?
Yes. Lujan Plumbing can inspect and repair leaking outdoor faucets, hose bibbs, damaged connections, and fixtures that no longer shut off properly.
