FixerDepot is ready to assist you with the repair of your dripping faucet. Here’s an overview of how FixerDepot’s technicians typically handle dripping faucet repair:
Faucet Inspection: A skilled technician will conduct a thorough inspection of your dripping faucet to identify the source and cause of the drip. This may involve disassembling the faucet and examining components such as O-rings, washers, cartridges, or valves.
Identification of Faucet Type: Different faucets have unique mechanisms, and FixerDepot technicians are trained to identify the specific type of faucet you have. This is crucial for accurate and effective repairs.
Shutting Off the Water Supply: Before starting the repair, the technician will shut off the water supply to the faucet. This is typically done by turning the shut-off valves located under the sink.
Disassembly of Faucet: The technician will carefully disassemble the faucet to access the internal components. This may involve removing the handle, decorative caps, and any retaining nuts.
Replacement of Seals, Washers, or Cartridge: Based on the inspection, the technician will replace any damaged or worn-out components, such as O-rings, washers, or the entire cartridge, depending on the faucet type.
Application of Plumber’s Tape (if needed): For faucets with threaded connections, the technician may apply plumber’s tape to ensure a tight and leak-free seal.
Reassembly of Faucet: Once the necessary repairs and replacements are completed, the technician will carefully reassemble the faucet, ensuring proper alignment and secure connections.
Testing for Leaks: The repaired faucet will be tested to ensure there are no more drips. The technician will turn on the water supply and observe the faucet’s performance.
Cleanup: After completing the repair, the technician will clean the work area.
