Diagnosis and repair options
The check covers the leak location, fixture model, shutoff valves and the condition of the supply connections. Low flow is assessed separately from low building water pressure.
A compatible cartridge, seal or other component may restore the fixture. Replacement may be more practical when the body is damaged, parts are unavailable or the fixture has several persistent faults.
Compare the repair parts, labor and expected condition of the remaining fixture with the cost of a replacement. A new faucet may also need attention to old supply valves or connections.
Faucet Repair Process in Lents
Identify faucet type and failure
We identify whether it's a ball, cartridge, ceramic disc, or compression faucet — the repair method and parts differ for each type.
Disassemble and diagnose the cause
Handle and valve body opened to inspect cartridge, washers, O-rings, and valve seat condition.
Replace failed components
New cartridge, washer, O-ring, or valve seat installed — we carry parts for the most common faucet brands on the truck.
Reassemble and test
Faucet reassembled, fully cycled hot and cold, and checked for drip and proper handle movement before leaving.

Common questions about faucet repair in Lents, Portland.
Should I repair or replace a dripping faucet?
Repair is usually the right call for faucets in good physical condition — a dripping faucet typically needs a $5–$20 cartridge or washer. Replace if the faucet body is corroded, the finish is deteriorated, or the replacement parts cost more than a new faucet.
Why is my faucet dripping when turned off?
The most common cause is a worn washer, cartridge, or ceramic disc inside the valve body. Over time, these components compress and lose their seal against the valve seat. The drip gets worse as the worn part continues to deteriorate.
How much water does a dripping faucet waste?
A faucet that drips once per second wastes about 3,000 gallons per year — roughly $20–$30 on a Portland Water Bureau bill. Faster drips multiply the waste quickly. Repair pays for itself in reduced water bills.
Can you repair any faucet brand?
We repair Delta, Moen, Kohler, American Standard, Price Pfister, and most other brands. Older or discontinued faucets sometimes require part sourcing — we confirm parts availability before starting and give you the option to replace if parts aren't readily available.
Does a dripping faucet damage anything over time?
Yes — a persistent drip stains the sink basin, wears the valve seat faster (accelerating the drip rate), and can cause mineral buildup on porcelain or stainless fixtures. A leaking base gasket can allow water to seep under the sink and cause cabinet damage.
