Faucet Repair in San Antonio, TX
That drip usually means one worn part, not a whole new faucet. We track it down, swap in an exact match, and give you a straight answer if replacement makes more sense.
Why this happens
Inside the handle sits a cartridge or a ceramic valve, plus a few rubber rings. Every time you turn it, a little limestone grit rides along. After enough years, the seal cannot shut tight and you hear that drip at night. Where the water shows up is the clue. Dripping from the spout points at the cartridge. Seeping at the handle points at an O-ring. A wet cabinet floor points below the faucet. And a single tap with poor flow almost always has a plugged aerator, not a house problem.
What our crew checks
The leak point
Spout, handle or cabinet. We read the clue before touching anything.
Brand ID
Matched by make and model so the part is exact, not close enough.
Aerator screen
Pulled and cleared of scale and sand.
Inside the body
Looked over for pitting that would chew up a new seal.
Lines below
Confirmed dry, since a cabinet drip can fool you into blaming the faucet.
Ways we can fix it
Rebuild
New cartridge or seals in a solid faucet. The most common call.
Scale cleanout
Aerator and valve cleared to bring back full flow.
Replace it
Body is shot, parts are gone, or the fix costs about as much as new.

Faucet Repair near Alamo Ranch and Westover Hills
A lot of the faucets in far west side tract homes are builder models with short-lived parts, and our mineral-heavy water wears them out faster still. Out in Westover Hills and off Potranco Rd, we pull cartridges caked solid within a few years. When parts keep failing, look at the water itself. Softening it or adding a filter often ends the repeat calls.
Faucet Repair FAQ
What are signs of a bad cartridge?
Water coming out of a closed spout, or a handle that grinds or fights you.
My faucet is an odd brand. Can you still fix it?
Usually. If parts are not available, we say so up front and go over replacement choices.
Only one sink has low flow. Why?
Start with that sink's aerator and cartridge. If all your taps are low, the regulator is the suspect.
