FAQs
What are the most common causes of a leaky faucet in Mountain City homes?
Most leaks are caused by worn-out rubber washers, O-rings, or ceramic cartridges inside the faucet. Hard water in Mountain City can accelerate mineral buildup, which scores these parts and prevents a watertight seal. High water pressure and freeze-thaw cycles at our elevation can also loosen internal components over time.
How do I know whether to repair the faucet or replace the entire fixture?
If the faucet body is in good shape and replacement parts are readily available, a repair is usually faster and more economical. However, if the finish is badly pitted, the model is discontinued, or multiple internal parts are failing, replacing the whole fixture often saves money in the long run and gives you access to newer water-saving technology.
Can you install water-efficient faucets and fixtures that meet current Mountain City code?
Yes. We carry EPA WaterSense-certified faucets and low-flow showerheads that meet or exceed all state and local plumbing codes. These fixtures reduce water use by up to 30 % without sacrificing pressure, which helps lower your utility bills and supports Mountain City’s conservation goals.
How long does a typical faucet replacement take?
A straightforward swap in an easily accessible sink usually takes about one hour. If we’re dealing with corroded supply valves, hard-to-reach mounting hardware, or if you’re upgrading multiple fixtures at once, the job can extend to two or three hours.
Will you check for hidden water damage when fixing my leaky faucet?
Absolutely. Our technicians inspect the cabinet floor, surrounding drywall, and adjacent supply lines for signs of rot, mold, or past leaks. Catching hidden damage early prevents costly structural repairs and health hazards down the road.
Do you offer emergency service for sudden leaks or broken fixtures?
Yes. We provide 24/7 emergency plumbing in Mountain City. If a faucet fails and can’t be shut off, call us any time. We’ll walk you through shutting off the nearest supply valve and dispatch a licensed plumber with the parts needed to stop the leak and restore full service.
