6 Signs You Need a Faucet Repair
1. Worn-out parts
A faucet has many small parts that may corrode or wear out over time. Damaged washers, O-rings, valve seats, and seals are often a direct cause of annoying faucet issues.
2. Improperly installed parts
Parts that are not installed right — or are the wrong part altogether — can cause dripping. For example, if the washer is too large or small, the faucet will leak.
3. Unexplainable water meter increase
Not all faucet leaks are obvious. If you haven’t used water for several hours, but your water meter increased, indicating water usage, that means you leak somewhere.
4. Squeaking handle
When the faucet handle squeaks when turning the water on and off, it means parts in the interior are worn out, and the faucet will eventually become unusable.
5. Dripping and leaking
If your faucet is still spurting water when the handle is off, it’s a sign of a leak.
6. Irregular discharge
When your water stream comes out of the spout at an unusual angle and makes sputtering sounds, your faucet is likely damaged.
How to Prevent the Need for Faucet Repair
Most faucets require little maintenance, so it’s easy to keep your fixture working correctly for a long time. Clean your faucet daily with a damp cloth and a mild cleanser, then dry it with a soft cloth. Clean the aerator once a year by removing it and cleaning the screen with water or a brush.
