Spotting the Problem.
That constant drip from your kitchen faucet isn’t just annoying—it’s wasteful and can drive up your water bill. Leaking faucets are often caused by worn washers, O-rings, or internal cartridges. Identifying where the leak is coming from (spout, handle, or base) is the first step in figuring out how to fix it.
DIY Quick Fixes
If you’re comfortable with tools, turn off the water supply and disassemble the faucet. Inspect washers and O-rings for signs of wear. Replacing these parts is inexpensive and can usually fix the leak. Just make sure to use the correct replacement parts based on your faucet’s brand and model.
When It’s More Than Just a Drip
If the faucet is still leaking after part replacement—or if it’s corroded, loose, or has low water pressure—it might be time for a full replacement. Long-term wear or sediment buildup inside the faucet can reduce efficiency and increase risk of damage.
