Water damage is one of the most expensive and difficult problems that homeowners face on a daily basis throughout the country. There are a number of factors that can lead to water damage, including clogged plumbing, broken sprinklers, faulty appliances, and leaky faucets. Even a few drops of water per hour coming from a leaky faucet can cause thousands of dollars’ worth of damage over time. The most frustrating thing about water damage is that many homeowners don’t realize it’s happening until it’s too lat. But a leaky faucet is easier to see than a pipe or sprinkler, so it’s one area that allows you to watch for warning signs.

Start by keeping an eye on your water bill. If the number suddenly rises without any major changes in your home, it could be the result of a leaky faucet. You can often hear when a faucet is leaking, or see that the sink is always wet. If you suspect a leak, call us at Ultimate Plumbing for faucet replacement. We will start by checking different components within the faucet to see if they are loose or damaged. Some faucets can simply be repaired. Older units or those with severe damage will require replacement, so we will then help you pick out a new faucet that looks good and is functional for what you need it to do.

Faucet replacement is best handled by a plumber because there are several steps that involve pipes. If you don’t know what you’re doing, you could end up with a bigger water damage problem than before. If your home is in or around Mooresville, North Carolina, give us a call today for faucet replacement services.
