Leaky or malfunctioning faucets are more than just a nuisance—they waste water, increase your utility bills, and can lead to bigger plumbing issues if left untreated. In fact, a single dripping faucet can waste up to 20 gallons of water per day, which adds up fast.

Here’s How We Can Help With Your Faucets:
If you're dealing with a plumbing leak, outdated fixture, or a constantly dripping faucet, don't wait until the damage gets worse.
Know your options and costs before any work begins. At KaiTech Plumbing & Heating, our Journeyman Plumbers will provide you with multiple options and quotes for every repair, so you can make an informed decision that is best for you and your budget.
Faucets generally drip, leak, or stop working because their internal components break down or wear out. Kitchen and bathroom faucets have different kinds of compression valves that range from ball or cartridge to compression and dip. Each of these faucet valves requires a different technique of repair, replacement and maintenance. Signs your faucet may need to be replaced or repaired include:
Your home faucet may create a whistling like sound signalling a problem. A loose washer is often the cause, but if tightening the washer or replacing it with the right size solve the problem there could be other issues within the pipes. If replacing the washer does not resolve the issue you will want to hire a professional plumber to further investigate the root of the problem.
Tiny holes in a tap can get clogged with dirt and mineral buildup and inhibit the flow of water. Plumbing blockages and leaking pipes can also cause low water pressure. If your pipes are working properly, it is more than likely the constrictor valve inside your faucet is damaged.
Faucets contain several valves or chambers depending on the style and age of your fixture, and are prone to sediment buildup most likely caused by hard water. In order to address no water coming out of the faucet, check to see if the shut-off valve is open and if there’s still no water coming out you will have to take the faucet apart and clean each chamber.
Dripping faucets are commonly caused by a dislodged or torn washer. These silicon-based seals can become stiff and corroded over time, and damaged washers will initially create a tiny trickle of water. It’s best to replace them immediately before the water pressure destroys them completely.
Loose or worn-out seals, damaged pipes, increased water pressure, and improper fitted pipes are just a few reasons why your drain pipes may be leaking. Unlike waterline leaks, drain pipes are used to remove waste water out of your home and can cause substantial damage to your home if they fail to drain properly.
Problems in the installation process can cause leaks due to loose parts, and you can damage or lose the small parts of the unit which may require buying a new set. The simplest solution is to have a certified plumber reinstall the faucet to ensure it is installed properly.
The only way to reliably repair faucet issues is to simply replace worn or broken components. Although faucets look simple, they are in fact highly specialized, and the more artistic and modern they are, the more complex the faucet’s functioning. This essentially means that your everyday handyman or homeowner may have difficulties fixing them without spoiling them first.
Whether you have a minor drip or a major break, we can repair any faucet problem quickly and efficiently. We’ll locate the source of the issue, fix the faulty component, and make sure everything’s flowing the way it should.
We not only handle faucet repairs, but we also install new sinks if your old sink is damaged, cracked, or stained. Let our Airdrie plumbers take a look at your fixtures and get your home back up and running the way it should.
