Frequently Asked Questions About Dallas Faucet Repair
What Are the Leading Causes of A Dripping Faucet?
Mineral buildup is the leading cause of faucet leaks and frequent fixture replacements. Mineral deposits like calcium and magnesium have a corrosive effect on your taps’ interior components.
Is An Entire Faucet Fixture Replacement Cheaper Than Repair?
While designed to last for ten years, your faucets may not last half their lifetime, at least not without regular maintenance. Worn o-rings, washers, valve seats, and cartridges are replaceable, but when you combine the cost of parts replacement and labor, you may benefit more from a complete replacement service.
When Getting A New Fixture Installation, Which Type Will Keep Dallas Faucet Repairs And Maintenance To A Minimum?
We mentioned low-quality products earlier and that’s ball faucets which often have bad designs that corrode easily. The exterior unit tends to start leaking over time, making the faucet handle sensitive to operate. That said, there is a list of high-quality and long-lasting faucet brands that your professional plumbers recommend, such as Moen, Koehler, or Delta. Initially, what you want are strong, durable materials that don’t easily corrode. Brass bodies or ceramic valves are good to have. They are easy to maintain, provide excellent water pressure and control, and require the least repairs.
What Happens If I Ignore A Dripping Faucet?
Your indoor and outdoor faucets may be small fixtures but when faulty, they could lead to a series of problems. When water leaks go undetected or even ignored, you could experience mold growth within 48 hours and, over time, nearby structures like your base cabinet will degrade and start to rot. You will see discoloration and mildew on your grout lines and caulk beads which will deteriorate your existing tile system. While mold spores will continue to spread, your indoor air quality will decrease, and you will eventually get sick.
How Do I Protect My Fixtures Without Requiring Professional Faucet Repair?
Dallas technicians at Mr. Rooter recommend keeping your taps clean by regularly wiping them and cleaning them with mild soap and water. Though it may be easy to keep the exterior clean, there are also hard-to-reach areas, such as inside the spout. We recommend disconnecting the aerator and soaking it in white vinegar. Another good idea is to create a paste with vinegar and baking soda and use an old toothbrush to scrub around the spout’s interior.
But this is not how most Dallas homeowners want to spend their time, not if you have multiple taps and a couple of shower heads that would require the same amount of attention. Yet, mineral buildup is inevitable unless you opt for a filtration system like a water softener installation. Feel free to contact our team more about water filtration systems.
