How to Detect a Faucet Leak
You may not always notice a leak right away. Not all leaks are obvious, annoying drips that keep you up at night. The best way to determine if your home has a leak is to use your water meter. Find your water meter and record a reading from it. Do not use any water in your house for a few hours. Then, take another reading. If the meter moved, it means you have a leak. Even a small leak is a big deal. You can stand to lose a considerable amount of money from the smallest leak if left unchecked. Contact us as soon as you find out you have a leak to avoid costly bills and the issue possibly becoming worse.
At F1 Plumbing Corp., we provide comprehensive service for faucets. In addition to new faucet installation, we can also complete faucet repair for those faucets that leak or do not function properly. Our trained and certified plumbers will be able to identify the problem with your faucet and develop a solution to address it. We encourage you to reach out to us for all your plumbing needs.

Styles of Sink Faucets
There are four distinct types of faucets based on their inner mechanism. It’s important to know which type you need. The different mechanisms include:
Cartridge
Found most commonly in bathroom sinks, double handle cartridge faucets have one hot water and one cold water handle. Single handle cartridge faucets move up and down for water volume and left to right for temperature control. The cartridge in the handles controls the flow of water.
Compression
Most older homes have these styles. They are also found in utility sinks. You will find two handles for hot and cold water. These require you to tighten the handles to shut off the water flow instead of controlling a cartridge in the handle.
Disc
These are in kitchens and bathrooms. You can identify them by a single lever. It moves a wide, cylindrical body to control the flow and temperature of the water. The disc is found in the handle, controlling the water levels.
Ball
Instead of being controlled by a disc, ball faucets work with a single handle that maneuvers around a rounded cap. These are most popular in kitchens due to their versatility.
Signs You Need a New Faucet
As a homeowner, a decision you’ll have to constantly make is whether to repair or replace major components of your home’s systems. Faucets are a part of this process. You’ll have to judge the current condition of your faucet to determine whether a repair is worthwhile, or a replacement is your best option. This can be difficult to do if you don’t have much experience or knowledge of plumbing systems, but we’re here to help. It’s likely time to replace your faucet if you notice any of the following:
-
It’s Rusty: Rust often builds up inside your faucet where you can’t visibly see it, so it’s essential to look for signs that this may be occurring. If the handle sticks or cracks when you move it or water is slow to come out of your faucet, your faucet is likely rusting internally.
-
It Keeps Leaking: Leaky faucets are an incredible annoyance, especially when it keeps happening after repair attempts. If your faucet is still leaking after multiple tries at fixing it, it’s time to consider installing a new one.
-
It’s Very Old: All faucets are different when it comes to how long they’ll last. However, if yours is more than 15 years old, it’s likely reached the end of its life, so it’s time to install a new one.
-
It Has Heavy Mineral Deposits: If you notice heavy mineral deposits on your faucet, it may be time to replace it. These thick, white deposits can inhibit your faucet’s function and are nearly impossible to get rid of once they form.
