Common Sink and Faucet Problems
Some of the most common issues that result in kitchen faucet repair or sink replacement include:
- O-Rings
- A worn out O-ring will cause dripping in the faucet near the handle.
- Valve Washers
- When the faucet turns on, the washer is pressed forcefully into the valve seat. Eventually, they will wear out or corrode, leading to leaking at the spout.
- Physical Damage
- Any physical damage to your kitchen sink or faucet should be repaired right away to prevent water leaks and mold growth.
Additionally, if your sink is leaking or if the drain basket is broken, we recommend installing a new model right away to prevent water damage and mold. Other reasons to replace your sink include upgrading your kitchen and matching the design of your other appliances.
How to Prevent Garbage Disposal Repair Issues?
The garbage disposal plays a huge role in many kitchen plumbing services. Here are a few ways to prevent garbage disposal problems in your home:
- Proper Garbage Disposal.
- Never put bones or shells in the garbage disposal. The unit is designed for soft organic material only.
- Avoid Overloading The Disposal
- If you have a lot of material to dispose of, do it in stages so that you do not jam the disposal.
- Warm Water Through The Blades
- Always run warm water through the blades when you are finished with the disposal. Doing this will help prevent food or debris sticking to the blades.
- Call a professional
- If you do require garbage disposal service, call a professional instead of attempting a DIY repair. The small area and sharp blades are a recipe for disaster for someone who is inexperienced.
- New garbage disposal
- If you experience frequent garbage disposal problems, consider a new garbage disposal installation, it will work more safely and efficiently.
