FAQs
What are the most common reasons a faucet starts dripping in Sequatchie homes?
The top causes are worn-out rubber washers or ceramic cartridges, sediment from Sequatchie’s moderately hard water that erodes internal seals, and high water pressure that stresses the faucet’s components. Occasionally a corroded valve seat or loose O-ring is to blame. Our technicians diagnose the exact source on-site so we can repair or recommend replacement quickly.
Is it worth fixing a small drip, or should I wait until the faucet fails completely?
Even a slow drip wastes up to 3 gallons a day—about 1,000 gallons a year—raising utility bills and accelerating mineral buildup in the fixture. Drips also signal parts are deteriorating, which can lead to sudden leaks and water damage. Repairing or replacing the faucet promptly is more economical than paying for wasted water or emergency cleanup later.
Do you offer same-day faucet repairs and replacements within Sequatchie County?
Yes. We keep fully stocked service vehicles in Dunlap and the surrounding valley, allowing us to handle most drip repairs or complete fixture replacements the same day you call. If we need a specialty part, we place a rush order through our Chattanooga supplier and schedule the soonest return visit at no extra charge.
How do I decide between repairing my existing faucet and installing a new one?
We consider the age of the faucet, cost of replacement parts, finish condition, and water-efficiency. If a fixture is over 10 years old, shows exterior corrosion, or needs multiple new components, a modern replacement is usually the better investment. New WaterSense-certified faucets can cut household water use by up to 30%, often offsetting the installation cost within a few years.
Can you upgrade my fixtures to match a bathroom or kitchen remodel?
Absolutely. We carry and install a wide range of styles—from rustic oil-rubbed bronze that complements Sequatchie’s mountain aesthetic to sleek stainless options for contemporary kitchens. We coordinate with your contractor on finish selections, sink compatibility, and rough-in requirements to ensure the new fixtures integrate seamlessly with your design and plumbing layout.
What warranties and guarantees do you provide on faucet replacements?
All fixtures we supply come with manufacturer warranties that typically range from lifetime coverage on finishes and mechanical parts to 5–10 years on cartridges. Our labor is backed by a 1-year workmanship guarantee. If a drip or defect reoccurs within that period, we return at no charge to make it right—no questions asked.
