Faucet Repair With Clear Answers Before Work Begins
That steady drip from your kitchen faucet. The bathroom handle that takes real effort to shut off. The leak pooling under the cabinet every time you run water. Faucet problems have a way of lingering because they're easy to put off — until the water damage, the wasted water, or the sheer frustration makes them impossible to ignore. The good news is that most faucet problems are fast to fix when you call the right plumber.
Lapin Services has been fixing faucets across Central Florida for over 65 years. Our licensed technicians diagnose faucet problems quickly — whether it's a worn cartridge, a failed O-ring, a corroded valve seat, or a loose supply connection — and make the repair correctly the first time. We'll also tell you honestly when a repair makes more sense than replacement, and when the opposite is true. No upselling. Just an honest answer and quality work.
Problems We Solve
Common Faucet Repair Problems We Fix
You do not have to diagnose the problem yourself. These are common issues we help confirm, explain, and repair.
Faucet That Drips Constantly
A dripping faucet almost always means a worn cartridge, damaged O-ring, or corroded valve seat. One drip per second adds up to more than 3,000 gallons of wasted water per year — and the wear will only worsen over time.
Leaking at the Base of the Faucet
Water pooling around the base of the faucet when it's running typically indicates O-ring failure on the body of the fixture. It's often a simple repair, but if left unaddressed it can damage the sink, counter, or cabinet below.
Stiff or Loose Handle
A handle that's difficult to turn, spins loosely, or doesn't feel right to operate usually indicates a worn cartridge or a broken stem inside the faucet body. These components are replaceable in most faucet models.
Water Spraying or Spitting from the Spout
Erratic water flow — spraying in multiple directions or pulsing unevenly — is often caused by a clogged or damaged aerator. In some cases it can also indicate a failing internal valve that needs attention.
Leaking at the Supply Line Connection
The flexible supply lines that connect your faucet to the shut-off valves below the sink can corrode, crack, or work loose over time. A leak at these connections can drip inside your cabinet for a long time before it's noticed.
When to Call
Signs Your Plumbing System Needs Professional Attention
If you notice any of these signs, call Lapin. We will find the cause and explain what needs to happen next.
You Can Hear Dripping When the Faucet Is Off
If you can hear or see water dripping after the faucet is fully closed, the internal components can no longer create a watertight seal. This won't resolve on its own — it needs a repair.
Water Pressure Has Dropped at One Faucet
If the flow from a single faucet has weakened while all others are normal, the aerator may be clogged with mineral deposits, or the faucet's internal valve may be failing. It's worth having it checked.
The Handle Moves but the Water Doesn't Change
If rotating the handle from hot to cold (or vice versa) no longer changes the water temperature, the cartridge inside the faucet has likely failed and needs to be replaced.
Water Stains or Moisture Under the Sink
Staining or moisture inside the cabinet under the sink — even without a visible puddle — indicates a slow leak at the faucet connections or supply lines that needs to be addressed before it causes more serious damage.
Faucet Is Making Unusual Noises
Squealing, banging, or chattering sounds when you operate the faucet are signs of worn internal parts that are creating friction or failing under water pressure. These sounds typically get worse over time.

FAQs
Faucet Repair FAQs
Is it worth repairing a dripping faucet or should I just replace it?
For most faucets, a cartridge or O-ring replacement is fast, affordable, and restores full function. If the faucet is very old, cosmetically worn, or has recurring problems, replacement may be the smarter long-term choice — and we’ll tell you honestly which applies.
How much water does a dripping faucet actually waste?
A faucet dripping once per second wastes about 3,000 gallons of water per year — that’s money on your water bill for nothing. Fast repairs pay for themselves quickly.
Can you fix any brand of faucet?
We work on all major faucet brands including Moen, Delta, Kohler, American Standard, Pfister, and others. Most cartridges and repair parts are stocked or readily available.
How long does a faucet repair take?
Most faucet repairs take under an hour. We come prepared with common repair parts so there’s no waiting on parts to be ordered in most cases.
My faucet was repaired before and it's dripping again — what's going on?
If a repair keeps failing, the underlying component may not have been fully replaced, or the faucet body itself may be worn to the point where it can no longer hold a repair. We’ll assess the full situation and give you an honest recommendation.
How much does faucet repair cost in Orlando?
Cost depends on the type of faucet, the nature of the repair, and the parts required. We provide upfront pricing before we start — so you know exactly what you’re agreeing to.
Can you repair a faucet that leaks under the sink, not at the spout?
Yes. Leaks under the sink — at supply line connections, shut-off valves, or the faucet mounting — are common and completely fixable. We handle all of them.
Is it safe to leave a dripping faucet unrepaired for a while?
Short-term it won’t cause an emergency, but a dripping faucet will waste water and money every day it goes unaddressed — and the internal components will continue to deteriorate, potentially making the repair more complex over time.
