Faucet Repair in Columbus and Central Ohio

A dripping, leaking, or hard-to-turn faucet usually comes down to a worn cartridge, valve, or seal, and it’s a repair that’s often faster and cheaper than a full replacement. Build a preliminary online estimate in a few minutes, or call (614) 382-0000.

Is this what you’re seeing?

• A faucet that drips steadily even when fully closed
• Water leaking from the base of the faucet handle
• A handle that’s become hard to turn or feels loose
• Low water pressure from a single faucet
• A faucet that sprays or leaks at an unusual angle
• Corrosion or mineral buildup visibly affecting the fixture

Honest pricing

Faucet repair cost depends on the cause: a worn cartridge or O-ring is a quick, affordable fix, while a corroded valve body or a fixture that’s simply beyond repair may point to replacement instead. Our team diagnoses the actual cause on site rather than guessing over the phone, since the same symptom (a drip) can come from several different issues. The Estimate Builder gives you a preliminary online estimate range, and final scope and price are confirmed once our team examines the faucet in person.

What’s included / what’s not included

Typically included:
– Diagnosis of the cause of the leak or malfunction
– Cartridge, O-ring, or valve replacement as needed
– Testing for leaks after the repair
– A recommendation if replacement makes more sense than repair

Typically not included unless added to scope:
– A new faucet fixture, if replacement is recommended (quoted separately)
– Supply line replacement beyond the faucet connection itself
– Countertop or sink modifications for a different faucet style

Why Central Ohio faucets wear out faster

Hard water is common across Central Ohio, and mineral buildup inside faucet valves and cartridges is one of the most frequent causes of the leaks and stiff handles our team sees. Older homes with original fixtures, common in neighborhoods like Clintonville and Bexley, often have faucets well past the point where a cartridge is easy to source, which is part of why our team checks parts availability before recommending repair over replacement.

Our process

1. Online estimate or call. Use the Estimate Builder or call (614) 382-0000 to describe the faucet and what it’s doing.
2. On-site diagnosis. Our team examines the faucet and identifies the actual cause.
3. Repair or recommendation. We complete the repair if parts are available and the fixture is in good shape, or explain why replacement is the better option.
4. Testing. We test the repaired faucet under normal water pressure to confirm the fix holds.
