A kitchen faucet that drips steadily no matter how tight you turn the handle, a bathroom faucet handle that's gone stiff or stuck, or low water pressure at a single fixture — faucet issues are usually a worn cartridge or valve, and usually a same-visit fix. Our Palo Alto technicians carry common cartridges and O-rings for most major brands.

A steady drip is almost always a worn cartridge, washer, or O-ring — replaced with the correct part for your specific brand.
Stiff handles, inconsistent temperature, or a faucet that won't shut off fully usually point to a failing cartridge.
New faucet installation includes proper supply line connection and a leak check before we consider the job done.
We isolate whether the issue is the faucet itself or something further upstream in the supply line.
