How do you fix a faucet?
The repairment process varies depending on the kind and model of the faucet, namely:
Two-handle:
- Ceramic disc faucet
- Compression faucet
- Reverse compression faucet
- Cartridge faucet
Single-handle:
- Ball faucet
- Cartridge faucet
- Ceramic disc faucet
Each of these models needs to be managed in a separate way. Generally, to repair a faucet, one requires to dismantle its handles or aerator (depending on where the breakage is located) and replace the damaged parts.
In case of a two-handle faucet, first, the plumber shuts off one of the valves. If the tap is still running, that means that the problem is with the other handle. Both valves are shut off then, and both handles are turned on to let the residue water out. After that, the plumber takes the handle apart and replaces the damaged part with a fitting new one.
The ceramic disc faucet will need a cylinder replacement. The compression or reverse-compression types of faucets usually require the O-ring and washer to be changed, while cartridge faucets, obviously, entail a cartridge replacement. During these procedures, the aerator is also checked to see whether it needs to be repaired or substituted. When it comes to single-handle faucets, the process is quite similar, although it has its own nuances that only a professional plumber can handle.
It is absolutely not recommended to go DIY and repair the faucet yourself, as you can cause more harm than good to your fixtures. Our local professional plumbers will inspect your faucet thoroughly to localize the problem, and fix everything in no time, using the most modern tools and technologies. Call us now!
