When You Should Repair vs. Replace a Faucet

Should you fix or replace your faucet?

If your Tampa home’s faucet is dripping, sputtering, visibly corroded, or has irregular water pressure, you want to act quickly to get it fixed. Aside from being a major inconvenience, a leaky or damaged faucet can lead to other issues over time like structural damage, rot, mold, and more.

How do you know whether to replace or repair your faucet? And which option will be more cost-effective?

Faucets are durable and should last between 10 and 20 years. When they start wearing out, several factors like the age of your fixtures, the type of faucet you have, and the cause of the problem can determine if you should repair or replace it.

To help you determine whether to replace or repair your faucet, we’ll review these primary factors:

• Your Faucet Is Leaking

• Your Faucet Has Severely Corroded

• Your Faucet Needs Frequent Repairs

• Your Faucet Is 20+ Years Old

• You Plan to Remodel
