Shut-off valves don’t last forever. Over time, they can corrode, wear out, or become difficult to operate. Here are some common signs that your shut-off valves need attention:
- Leaks or Drips – A faulty valve may leak around the handle or connection points, leading to wasted water and potential damage.
- Difficulty Turning – If the valve is stuck, stiff, or difficult to turn, it may need lubrication, repair, or replacement.
- Rust or Corrosion – Visible rust or mineral buildup can indicate internal deterioration, reducing the valve’s effectiveness.
- Incomplete Shut-Off – If the valve doesn’t fully stop water flow, it may be worn out or clogged with debris.
- Old or Outdated Valves – Older shut-off valves, especially gate valves, are more prone to failure and may be best replaced with modern, more reliable options.
If you notice any of these issues, it's best to have a professional plumber inspect your shut-off valves and recommend repairs or replacements.

Shut-Off Valve Repair
If your shut-off valve is leaking or hard to turn, we can repair it by replacing worn-out washers, seals, or handles. In some cases, a professional cleaning and lubrication can restore its functionality.
Shut-Off Valve Replacement
When a valve is too damaged or outdated to repair, we recommend a replacement. Our licensed plumbers install high-quality, durable shut-off valves, including:
- Ball Valves – Reliable and long-lasting, these valves use a rotating ball to control water flow and are less prone to leaks.
- Angle Stop Valves – Ideal for fixture shut-off, these valves provide easy control of water to sinks, toilets, and appliances.
- Compression and Quarter-Turn Valves – These options provide smooth operation and enhanced durability compared to older styles.
We’ll help you choose the right shut-off valve for your needs and ensure proper installation to prevent future problems.
