Faucet Repair and Installation: Expert Solutions for Leaky Taps and Modern Hardware Upgrades

Faucets are the most frequently used fixtures in your home. Whether it’s the high-arc pull-down in your kitchen or the elegant widespread faucet in your master bath, they need to be both functional and aesthetically pleasing. A single dripping faucet isn’t just a background noise—it’s a sign of internal wear that can lead to higher utility bills and water damage under your cabinets. At Jessy Plumbing & Heating, we provide precision Faucet Repair and Installation as well as professional installation for all major faucet brands. From Surrey to Vancouver, we help homeowners restore their fixtures to perfect working order or upgrade to the latest in touchless and water-saving technology.

Common Faucet Issues and Red Flags

Why Faucets Fail

Most modern faucets rely on ceramic cartridges or rubber O-rings to control water flow. Over time, the hard water minerals found in the Lower Mainland can cause these components to corrode or become “pitted,” leading to persistent drips. If you notice water pooling around the base of the handle or a drop in pressure, it’s time for a professional assessment. We carry a wide range of replacement cartridges to fix your existing fixture without needing a full replacement.

Signs You Need a Repair

Squeaking Handles: Difficulty turning the faucet often indicates internal friction or a lack of lubrication.

Spitting or Spraying: An uneven stream usually means the aerator is clogged with calcium or the diverter is failing.

Under-Sink Moisture: Water leaking from the supply lines or the faucet body can ruin your vanity or kitchen cabinets.

Our Faucet Repair and Installation Services

Precision Faucet Repair

We specialize in the “internal surgery” of your fixtures. By replacing worn-out seats, springs, and cartridges, we can often make a 10-year-old faucet feel brand new. We work on all major brands, including Moen, Delta, Kohler, and Pfister, ensuring that the repair is done with high-quality, manufacturer-approved parts.

Seamless New Installation

Ready for a new look? We handle the complete installation of your new kitchen or bathroom faucet. This includes securing the fixture to the sink or countertop, connecting the supply lines, and testing the pop-up drain assembly. We ensure every connection is watertight and that your new faucet is perfectly centered and leveled.

Quick Guide: When to Repair vs. Replace

Helpful Tips: If your faucet has a low-flow or “spraying” stream, the aerator (the mesh screen at the tip) is likely clogged with mineral deposits. You can often fix this yourself! Unscrew the aerator and soak it in a small bowl of white vinegar overnight. The acid will dissolve the calcium, restoring your water pressure instantly.
